    I can only say that the season premiere was pretty good, even better than I expected at some points. All the cast members keep on delivering great performances and the direction is on the par as well. Keeping my fingers crossed for the upcoming episodes.

    This show just keeps getting better and better as each season goes on. The ending to season 3 was just so good. And now that Elena is Vampire who knows where the show will go, and the plots can now go wild. I cant wait to see where this season (and future seasons) will go.

    A delightful treat for a fan like me. Season 4 started with a good shot. And I hope that it continues shooting at the right aim. The story develops and so are the characters. The performances are climbing into a another new height. What will happen next?

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The season is perfect. A clear development from the earliest episodes ... Mysteries and blood surrounding each episode. The season has not even started right and I can not wait to see next. Vampire Diaries has become increasingly outperforming. Expand

    The first two episodes feel like the rebirth of a recharged series, with Dobrev taking the reins with gusto as she emotes.
