Game changed. Jaws dropped. Fingernails hanging off cliffs all around the nation. On The Vampire Diaries Season 4 finale – SPOILER ALERT! – we watched as Elena chose Damon… Katherine was force fed The Cure… and Silas revealed that Stefan is his doppleganger! Yes, Stefan Salvatore is the shadow self of Silas the Witch, who has now returned to his true, Paul Wesley-like form and plunged his doppleganger into both a locked safe and the bottom of the ocean. Like we said, game changed. Did you possibly see this twist coming? Where will things go in The Vampire Diaries Season 5 ? Try to wrap your mind around the conclusion and sound off now: What did you think of the TVD finale? Amazing! Disappointing! Somewhere in between View Poll »
It was a season of judges fighting and ratings dwindling. Of men disappearing early and women showing their strength. And, oh, did we mention judges fighting? But American Idol finally came to an end tonight and – unlike the bloated two hours and seven minutes that it took for Fox to announce the winner – we will not waste anymore of your time in announcing the champion is… … CANDICE GLOVER! Considered the front-runner for months, Glover broke down as soon as Ryan Seacrest said her name, hugged Kree Harrison and then performed a terrific version of ” I Am Beautiful .” What do you think? Did Candice deserve the title? Yes, she was the best all season long! No, Team Kree! View Poll »
