Tonight on The Vampire Diaries, Klaus decides to adopt three children and… oh, wait. Wrong back-door pilot. This is the one where Klaus goes to Venice Beach to find his mother, right? No? Flashback set in the 80’s perhaps?
None of the above, but what The Vampire Diaries episode IS tonight is the first episode in what will ideally be a spin-off for Klaus and his Original family. It’s called “The Originals” — convenient, isn’t that — and some new characters will be thrown into the mix. Us? We’re happy that Elijah’s along for the ride; anything else is just a bonus.
If this does well, a series for The Originals could be a part of The CW line-up this Fall.
The network has released a behind the scenes preview view where cast members talk about this new project:
If you missed them before, here are some preview images from tonight’s big show. And, as always, you’re welcomed to come talk about “The Originals” episode on our Vampire Diaries forum!
