Of the characters left, who do you think would most likely make the transition over to TO (if anyone), once TVD wraps up? I'm thinking Bonnie (provided Kat Graham is up for it). There's plenty of possibilities to expand on Bonnie's background as a witch with maybe some family ties back to New Orleans.
Thoughts?
I'd love for Bonnie to, but Graham's done after this season, if anyone I see Stefan moving. Alarics already announced crossing over so I doubt he's making a permanent move. Caroline either dead or has her kids by TVDs end. Matt gotta die, Damon is ending up with Elena.
shareAs a regular probably no one, although they killed Klaus' blonde vampire GF. Stefan could be recurring if Paul gets some directing gigs. Same for Ian, both would be actually an improvement for the show.

hopefully no one
shareI know! What the hell are these people smoking? TO is not doing great either, it's life is on the line. They ran out of ideas and its dying just like TVD, however TO might get another season but I doubt it. I guess they just want to see if Hope can redeem it
sharelol, out of ideas? They just burned through 20 storylines in two season? I doubt they're running out. The only stories they've retreaded where Mikael and Esther's returns and that even had a new twist to each.
Excuse the pun but the show's been consistent in being "Original".
Klaus has gone through finding something he wants, getting said thing (power) realizing he wants to preservate his home instead of ruling it with said power. Realized he needs to be loyal to his family, realizing he isn't just the bad seed, realized he can love and can be loved, and has figured out he wants to be the father he never had and that his family comes before all.
The stories have nothing but intensified and unlike TVD, have made sense. From the Wolf/Vamp/Witch wars, to Kols return and acceptance. To the realization of holding the power of New Orleans (Davina, Marcel, Vincent) to each character not being safe (Cami) the sire line wars, the prophecy, The Beast, and obviously Dahlia were all great.
The Originals without a doubt is the BEST quality show right now on TV period, let alone miles ahead of anything on CW atm. The superhero shows are all good to average right now, TVD is barely above those along with Supernatural, and the rom coms are all garbage, Frequency I can't speak for yet. The 100 and Beauty and The Beast suck, iZombie is improving greatly though.
One of* the best on shows on TV, best series on CW period
shareThe only person I'd be kind of interested in seeing is Stefan, but other than that, I don't think TO needs any of the cast from TVD.
shareThe character of Stefan can barely hold his own on TVD, on TO his character would be swallowed whole.

That's kind of what happens when a character is controlled by writers who don't give a damn about him. But his one trip to NO, he was a million times more entertaining than he's been in seasons. Plus I think he and Klaus have far better chemistry than Damon and Stefan do.
shareI am done with Stefan, but Klefan was awesome. Best chemistry of anyone on either show period (except maybe BonKai!)
shareWell, at this point, there aren't a lot of characters that I'm not fed up with Lol. But yes, Klefan is just amazing. You can always feel the history between them when they're in a scene together.

The writers have written countless stories that revolve around Stefan and just how special he is but they just don't work for whatever reason. The exception is the Ripper story in S3 and yes Klefan was pretty good, but they keep retconning/excusing him to prop him up which therefore ruins the previous storytelling.
He could be arm candy for Freya if that floats ya boat though.
I'll have to respectfully disagree with this.
Mostly because I don't feel like the storylines they've given in him in the later seasons have been about showcasing his specialness and more about tearing down Stelena (the doppleganger storyline) or just giving him something to do. Personally, I feel like his storylines stopped having a real focus after season 3 and I think it's because the writers stopped caring about where he was going after season 3. Really, I think the writers stopped caring where a lot of these characters where going seasons ago.
And even the ripper storyline in season 3 is ultimately meaningless to me, because they haven't done anything significant with it. It just pops out for drama's sake.

Yeah but Stefan interacted with Silas once, Damon and Elena mostly dealt with Silas and Amara, Stefan had most interaction in that SL with Tessa. The whole thing was to show Delena could beat "Doppleganger fate". The fact they mentioned them "meant to be" was to throw an obvious challenge towards Delena, which means it was about them. Stefan didn't have a SL in S6, Steroline was mostly all about Caroline and her obstacles, Stefan didn't even meet that seasons antagonist.
Stefan and Damon had equal focus in S7, everything main plot conclusion rested on Damons shoulders while mostly the plot had Stefan primarily connected, which is the same this season just roles reversed, where Stefan's figuring the problem while Damon is in its midst.
Taylor, I think we can all agree that the writing for Season 5 was awful, but I don't agree that the sole purpose of the doppelganger story was to service delena. I mean it was one of the facets of manufactured angst that was used to create tension in the delena relationship but the main objectives of that storyline were to achieve several things.
1) Introduce the traveler mythology.
2) dismantle the triangle.
3) Bring Bonnie back from the dead.
4) Destroy the otherside.
The Augustine story was pure filler, and that was a plot device to create DE drama. They wrote Damon terribly (worse than they wrote Stefan)because they did not know what to do with him until the end of the season. He basically had no story.
Season 6 was Damons turn.
Season 7 was a Stefan worship fest. He could do no wrong, he was special to Valerie, Lily, Caroline and Rayna. Damon was not driving the plot in S7, Stefan was. Damon was in a reactionary role for almost the entirety of the season until the last few episodes which is why for me, Season 7 did not really work. It's also kind of why Season 8 Is not working for me either.

Sorry but TO's ratings is already very low. I give it 1 season if they're lucky to break the 4 Season & done trend. Reign couldn't. TO's numbers are very close to Reign's.
