The episode order
Could there be a slim possibility the final season might be extended to 22.
shareNo, the writers love the 16 episode order, I believe they can tell a cohesive story in 16 episodes. Look at Season 7, they pulled off an alright story, it got a little disjointed in Eps 11 and 12, but up to 15 is a built story, but they got so lost after the time jump they extended Stefan/Rayna by having get killed again for 3 episodes. Then just a "save Bonnie" plot to end the season, which I loved that, but it was barely (her being a huntress being it) a connection to acts 1 and 2 of the season.
