Anyone watch this and have watched the finale yet?

There's just something I don't get. When an original dies, their entire sire line dies.

When planning to die at the end Klaus and Elijah didn't seem at all concerned by this or that it was an issue. I know Elijah's had already gone when Elijah died earlier in the series but nobody seemed at all bothered that Klaus' line would die along with him, Including Caroline who is from Klaus' sire line. And Marcel but I'm assuming he would remain immortal.

Did I miss something or is that just terrible continuation?

Hi, I love The Original but didn’t enjoy much of this last season, far too rushed.

Klaus had his sire line broken, last season I think. I don’t think Elijah actually died earlier. I thought his sire line was still complete, so yes they glossed over that when he chose to die at the end.

This season just felt like it went through the motions I think they are just wanting to get on with the new series ‘Legacy’ starring Hope.

I though Elijah's line died in season 4, I think when Davina killed him, but they were able to bring him back from the pendant? When Rebekah and Kol were in the club a load of vampires dropped and they realised something had happened to Elijah.

I remember something vague about Klaus' sire line being broken so maybe that's why. Will have to start again and re-watch them!

I thought the last series was a bit rubbish too. Too much on mystic falls too. Never really liked vampire diaries so wasn't keen on the linkage.

Yes I think you are right it’s coming back to me now, maybe that’s why no big deal was made of his sire line because the damage had already been done.

For me the only highlight for the last season was when Elijah came back to being himself and he remembered everything. That was brilliant in my opinion. I had resigned myself that Elijah would probably die to be reunited with Hayley but hoped that Klaus would survive and pop up occasionally in the new series... although I think it might be too ‘teen’ for me.

Yes I preferred the Originals to the Vampire Diaries, having both Elijah and Klaus in it probably helped. Lol

I don’t know why the original writers couldn’t just finish the series, this last season was written by the writers of the Vampire Diaries I believe.

Yes I think the new series will be too teen for me too. A bit like the vampire diaries. The originals was a bit darker and more adult, so I lot better I thought!
