The AMPire Diaries Episode 12: “The Return” | “Brave New World” (Season 2 Premiere)
AMPies—it’s Season 2, baby! That’s right, moving along on this Vampire Diaries rewatch-slash-first-time watch (and mostly spoiler-free) combination podcast, we’re finally watching LaToya’s favorite season! In this supersized AMPire Diaries episode, we’re talking about “The Return” (Season 2, Episode 1) and “Brave New World” (Season 2, Episode 2). Why, exactly, is it supersized? Well, we’ve gotta talk:
- Who’s hotter: Elena or Katherine?
- Vampire blood sciences.
- Do we hate Bonnie yet?
- Why is being mean to Damo soooo funny?
- Which Sex and the City characters represent Katherine, Pearl, Anna, and Emily. (Call us, Julie Plec.)
- “Doppelganger,” “heightened,” and the moonstone!
- Steve the Squirrel Eater.
- “Emo Little Bitch” t-shirts: Yay or Nay?
- Jacked Jeremy.
- The fact that Jill actually wrote this season of The Vampire Diaries.
- Morgan's apology to Jeremy Gilbert stans.
- The elephant in the room when it comes to Damo and Caroline...
- HOT TAKES!!!
- Morgan and LaToya's friendship origin story.
- LaToya's mortality.
- The burden of not spoiling Jill, despite the fact that she wrote this season of television.
-
And that’s just a taste of it.
“KATHERINE RETURNS WITH A VENGEANCE” (“The Return”)
“THE CARNIVAL FROM HELL” (“Brave New World”)
The more AMPED logline this time around? Katherine. Returns. With. A. Vengeance. “The Return,” it is.
Whether you’re a Vampire Diaries obsessive or newcomer, join along with hosts LaToya Ferguson (@lafergs—Vampire Diaries obsessive), Morgan Lutich (@LorganMutich—Vampire Diaries obsessive), and Jill Defiel (@jiilbobaggins—Vampire Diaries newcomer) on their new podcast journey.

The AMPire Diaries Episode 11: “Isobel” | “Founder’s Day” (Season 1 Finale)
Hello, AMPies! This week in this horny Vampire Diaries rewatch-slash-first-time watch (and mostly spoiler-free) combination podcast, we’re talking “Isobel” (Season 1, Episode 21) and the misplaced apostrophe-loving “Founder’s Day” (Season 1, Episode 22). The latter is, of course, the Season 1 finale of The Vampire Diaries, so you know this is a Very Special Episode. In this episode alone, your favorite hosts:
- Continue to pretend that they know anything about The L-Word
- Delve deeper into “ThE gILbErT cHaRm”
- Give The Vampire Diaries a new name, thus allowing at least one of your hosts to further appreciate the show (It’s LaToya, as she only likes shows with “town” in the title now.)
- Question why they love this Confederate-loving show so much
- Say a lot of other stuff they don’t want to spoil in the show notes
- Look back on some of their favorite episodes and needle drops from The Vampire Diaries Season 1
And you can probably guess it, but… They’re already AMPED for Season 2.
“ISOBEL RETURNS TO MYSTIC FALLS” (“Isobel”)
“THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING, WITH AN ENDING THAT WILL LEAVE YOU HANGING” (“Founder’s Day”)
The more AMPED logline this time around? Honestly, considering the whole Confederacy thing mentioned here and in this AMPire Diaries episode, the “Founder’s Day” logline has kind of ended up disqualifying itself. So, “Isobel” is more amped by default.
Whether you’re a Vampire Diaries obsessive or newcomer, join along with hosts LaToya Ferguson (@lafergs—Vampire Diaries obsessive), Morgan Lutich (@LorganMutich—Vampire Diaries obsessive), and Jill Defiel (@jiilbobaggins—Vampire Diaries newcomer) on their new podcast journey.

The AMPire Diaries Episode 10: “Miss Mystic Falls” | “Blood Brothers”
Moving along on this Vampire Diaries rewatch-slash-first-time watch (and mostly spoiler-free) combination podcast, we’re talking about “Miss Mystic Falls” (Season 1, Episode 19) and “Blood Brothers” (Season 1, Episode 20). This time around, the gals are talkin’ “ThE gILbErT cHaRm,” loving one trash man, how “Miss Mystic Falls” is like HBO’s Run, GIUSEPPE, and the Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode “Amends.” See? A lot of Vampire Diaries talk.
ALSO: LaToya and Morgan end up potentially getting both themselves and the podcast canceled in this episode. Please stick around to the end to see if they convince you not to cancel them.
“A GALA SO BLOODY, YOU'LL BE WEARING RED” (“Miss Mystic Falls”)
“THE HATRED BEGINS, IN THE PAST” (“Blood Brothers”)
The more AMPED logline this time around? HOLY SHIT, “Miss Mystic Falls” is absolutely AMPED.

Moving along on this Vampire Diaries rewatch-slash-first-time watch (and mostly spoiler-free) combination podcast, we’re talking about “Let The Right One In” (Season 1, Episode 17) and “Under Control” (Season 1, Episode 18). The AMPire Diaries’ resident boy, Michael Chasin, makes his official debut on the podcast as a guest, and thus marks the start of several brand new bits, such as: teen death wish rankings, “slurp,” and what will now be known as “Boy Corner.”
“STEFAN, DAMON, ALARIC AND ELENA AGAINST TOMB VAMPIRES” (“Let The Right One In”)
“UNCLE JOHN AND HIS DARK SECRETS” (“Under Control”)
The more AMPED logline this time around? It’s got to go to the more AMPED episode, “Let The Right One In.”

The AMPire Diaries Episode 8: “A Few Good Men” | “There Goes the Neighborhood”
Moving along on this Vampire Diaries rewatch-slash-first-time watch (and mostly spoiler-free) combination podcast, we’re talking about “A Few Good Men” (Season 1, Episode 15) and “There Goes the Neighborhood” (Season 1, Episode 16). And boy do we have some questions. Would John Goodman make a good Giuseppe Salvatore? Who is “Bloodybecky”? Does Shay Mitchell have Canadian energy? Is Raising Helen a movie that exists? Did Damon “Damo” Salvatore and Carol “Carol” Lockwood have sex? Also, LaToya, Morgan, and Jill prepare for the “full Boy Time” that will be Episode 9.
“MOTHERS, BACHELORS AND BLOOD” (“A Few Good Men”)
“A NEW START” (“There Goes the Neighborhood”)
The more AMPED logline this time around? Mothers and bachelors and blood—oh my! “A Few Good Men” is truly AMPED.

The AMPire Diaries Episode 7: “Children of the Damned” | “Fool Me Once”
Moving along on this Vampire Diaries rewatch-slash-first-time watch (and mostly spoiler-free) combination podcast, we’re talking about “Children of the Damned” (Season 1, Episode 13) and “Fool Me Once” (Season 1, Episode 14). LaToya is possibly now Jeremy Gilbert’s #1 fan, Jill just keeps hating on flashbacks, and The Vampire Diaries says the words “leverage” and “doppelganger” for the very first time. Plus, stick around until the very end (meaning, past the end theme) of the podcast for a special treat.
“A BLAST FROM THE PAST” (“Children of the Damned”)
“SECRETS OF THE TOMB” (“Fool Me Once”)
The more AMPED logline this time around? Again, neither are all that AMPED… But my imagined cadence for “SECRETS OF THE TOMB” comes from this Key & Peele sketch (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GxjNOv5QPzM), specifically once it gets to Passion of the Christ. So it wins on that alone.

Moving along on this Vampire Diaries rewatch-slash-first-time watch (and mostly spoiler-free) combination podcast, we’re talking about “Bloodlines” (Season 1, Episode 11) and “Unpleasantville” (Season 1, Episode 12). Is Morgan also Jeremy Gilbert’s #1 fan? Was Elena wearing a Bump It? Are the Salvatore brothers really brothers? Are the hosts of this podcast idiots? Tune in to hear a resounding “YES!” to all of these questions and more.
“STEFAN UNCOVERS A STARTLING CLUE TO THE PAST” (“Bloodlines”)
“50s DANCE THAT WILL LEAVE YOU BREATHLESS” (“Unpleasantville”)
The more AMPED logline this time around? Honestly, neither are all that AMPED… which is ridiculous, because both of these episodes are AMPED. But “Unpleasantville” wins by default.

The AMPire Diaries Episode 62: The Vampire Diaries - “Fifty Shades of Grayson”
GOT MILK? (This will make sense when you listen to the episode, AMPies. Or if you just look a little lower on these show notes.) This week, your favorite Vampire Diaries rewatch-slash-first-time watch (and mostly spoiler-free) combination podcast is discussing The Vampire Diaries’ “Fifty Shades of Grayson” (Season 5, Episode 10—the NINETY-NINTH episode). Which means we’re talking:

- Our favorite child, Renesme, and her whole deal.
- Elena Gilbert’s Daddy Issues.
- SCIENCE.
- Grace and Frankie plotlines.
- Nina Dobrev’s Got Milk? campaign, a thing that thankfully exists.
Fall Out Boy should do a TVD album, right?

- Jill’s prediction for the HUNDREDTH episode of The Vampire Diaries.

The AMPire Diaries Episode 56: The Vampire Diaries - “Death and the Maiden”
AMPies! Welcome back to our (unfortunately) final episode of Qetsiyah Cast! This week, your favorite Vampire Diaries rewatch-slash-first-time watch (and mostly spoiler-free) combination podcast is discussing The Vampire Diaries’ “Death and the Maiden” (Season 5, Episode 7). So you just know we’re talking:
- The Official Jill Defiel D-Wanting List.
- Special candies. Wait… What show is this?
- #Doppelpalooza vs. Troppelganger.
- Jill’s grudge against Philly (but not “Motown Philly”).
- “PUT CAROLINE ON!” (Possibly on Qetsiyah?)
- The Stefan/Damon/Elena trio dynamic… but in a disappointed way.
- Celestial events. Heard of ‘em?
- The parallels between The CW’s The Vampire Diaries and Netflix’s Squid Game.
- Charmed, of course. Specifically the one thing we always talk about with Charmed.
- QETS. WITH. A. CANDELABRA.
This one goes out to all you Qetsiyah *and* Che Diaz heads! (Also, nipping this in the bud now: After recording this, we found out Janina Gavankar was on The L-Word. Still not going to watch it.)
Also: TRIGGER WARNING. There is a lot of rather morbid talk of death and the graphic violence in this episode of The Vampire Diaries.

The AMPire Diaries Episode 55: The Originals - “Fruit of the Poisoned Tree”
AMPies! We’re almost at Jill’s breaking point. (If you know, you know.) But THIS week, your favorite Vampire Diaries rewatch-slash-first-time watch (and mostly spoiler-free) combination podcast is discussing The Originals’ “Fruit of the Poisoned Tree” (Season 1, Episode 6). And that also means talk of:
- Weird editing, because we are a serious podcast that discusses the art of television.
- Poetry, which LaToya definitely explained during this recording, even though it somehow didn’t make the final cut.
- What they be saying in the church. (“Forgive Me” versus “Bless Me.”)
- Walking (and walking… and walking) and talking. But mostly walking.
- Why “Phesmatos” isn’t as easy as Bonnie Bennett’s always made it look.
- Dark objects and KNOTS, baby.
- Sophie’s boldness.
- Annie the musical, of course!
- Thierry’s hats.
- HOLD HER FOR THE SPELL (AND PLOT), ELIJAH!
