The Vampire Diaries Season 3 Finale / Season 4 Predictions

 I watched Damon's moment of agony when he realized Elena died like 100 times. I have never seen a face more pained and tortured than that one. Ian Somerhalder is so much more than a pretty face. I can't say the same for Paul Wesley.

You did meet her first, darling Damon.
1. Fact: Dalena is ENDGAME.
Is it possible to have 2 soulmates? I believe so. No matter how much Elena struggled with her feelings for Damon, I knew she would always choose Stephan. Her love for Stephan is pure and unconditional. No matter what awful things he did in the past, Elena will always see the man who saved her when she almost drowned. She will always love Stephan. It's always going to be Stephan. However, the page of her story has now turned. She is dead. The Elena who will always love Stephan is now gone. 

Back then, when Stephan saved her from the car accident, Stephan and Elena formed a connection. He will always be the person who saved her, which is why Elena could never let him go, even if he was going apeshit with Klaus along the East Coast. Stephan saved Elena. That was something she could never get over.

But at the end of season 3, the second time around, it was Damon's blood which saved Elena from eternal death. And what is truly poetic about it all, was that it was Elena who saved Damon too from almost certain death from Alaric. They saved each other. I don't know how clear it can possibly be. TVD writers are paving the way for a Dalena endgame ending. Sure, Elena rejected Damon. Sure, she picked Stephan over Damon. But this is all for the sake of story-telling. Because in the end, she will most certainly pick Damon. The writers have made it very clear that as much as Stephan and Elena are meant for each other in her human life, so is Damon and Elena are for each other in her undead life. 

So as her feelings for Damon grows in S4, I believe this will cause Katherine and Stephan to draw closer together.

2. Bonnie is on her way to becoming a dark witch.
Bonnie has come a long way from back in the days when simply opening/closing the tomb put her in a life/death situation. Now, she does whatever the fuck she wants and it happens. I call her the "unicorn" character of a show. These characters will always be safe from death because they make the random shit necessary for story-line continuation happen because the main characters don't have the capability. Such "unicorn" characters include: Bonnie, any hacker of a crime-solving show, Hermoine, Nolan (from Revenge),  the Pokedex. Anyway, the point is, Bonnie has done so much dark magic in the past season that I believe we will be seeing the repercussions in season 4. 

3. Matt, die.
This is not a prediction, but my greatest wish for this show. Let him be sacrificed, like many others before him, at the altar of Elena. He's so boring and useless and non-magical to be part of the Mystic Falls gang. He's a jerk. He broke up with Caroline because she became a vampire, and now all he does he hang out with vampires. Hypocrite much? 

4. Tyler will die.
Happy couples never last. Although Klaus has already taken over Tyler's body, I believe OEM Klaus will return. And when he does, I believe Tyler will die. Klaus simply isn't the type to let his romantic rival roam around. And he certainly doesn't have the decency to allow for fair competition of Caroline's heart. 

5. Everyone dies.
I'm sure I can predict the death of every character on the show, and even if it doesn't happen soon, I'm sure by the end of the series, I will eventually be right.

Grey's Anatomy Season 8 Finale / Season 9 Predictions

Lexie dies. I saw this coming a mile away. I love Lexie to pieces, but this was the most obvious choice. Christina and Meredith are immortal on the show, so we don't have to worry about them, ever, unless they choose not to renew their contract. Derek was someone I worried about, but it would be too tragic to kill him off after everything they've been through. So what are my season 9 predictions?

Ultimately, the plane crash was a way to keep the entire cast in Seattle Grace. No matter how ridiculous it all was.


1. Arizona dies, Mark lives, Alex stays.
I love Arizona and Callie. Although separately, I don't care much for them. But they symbolize this sort of precious relationship to me that I don't ever want to be destroyed. Although after watching the season finale, Arizona seems fine to me. But that's the thing about Grey's Anatomy. The people in the gravest condition always make it through. It's always the people with the freaking flu that dies. After Callie went on about how perfect her life is and how it could change in an instant, I'm led to believe that Arizona will die in season 9. Alex accepted the John Hopkins fellowship, but he also renewed his contract with Grey's. This is why I believe that Arizona will die, because I don't see any other way to keep Alex at Seattle Grace, other than killing off his mentor. Alex will probably feel obligated to care for Arizona's patients in her place, after all she's done for him. It is also what she would want as well. I also didn't forget how Arizona was spitting out blood.

Mark, although in a most grave condition, will probably make it. You simply do not kill two lovers at the same time unless it's a series finale. Someone needs to stay behind in the living world to mourn the death of his/her beloved. Mark will be the one who suffers and mourns Lexie's death.

2. Derek will no longer be able to operate, Meredith stays.
It was no accident that Derek's hand was so awkwardly stuck in that plane wing. His hand will probably never be the same. If his hand was going to be fine, there was no reason to make his hand stuck like that. I think he will have to retire from surgery, so there's no need for him to accept that job at Harvard. This will probably lead to a very dark Derek storyline. It may be stretching it a little, but I can see an alcoholic depression coming up for Derek.

3. Christina reunites with Owen, Christina stays.
I think this whole life/death situation she has going on will convince Christina to stay in Seattle Grace with Owen. I think they kicked Teddy out for a reason. Now, Christina can become Head of Cardio.

L8on who?

Hi, my name is Leighton. I don't have many talents in life, and the ones I do have, are quite useless in every day life. I have a talent for eating, and I believe there's a hidden portal to space in my stomach, which allows me to eat without ever feeling full. But that really isn't a talent. I have a talent for holding in my pee. But that skill took years of kidney punishment to obtain. It really is an extension of my generally lazy personality, so I guess this isn't really a talent either. I also have a talent for breaking stuff. The things that break after my touch sometimes surprises me as well. Maybe I'm not built to be functional in this world. But one thing I happen to be good at that isn't detrimental to society and my body is predicting what happens in my favorite television shows. It's still quite a useless talent, but it's fun nonetheless when I turn out to be right. And when I'm not, I'll pretend the whole incident never happened. Oh yes, another thing I'm great at -- denial.
