  • Summary

  • TV superfans Sandile and Fadzai talk about their favourite supernatural dramas from the 22-episode era, and the characters that made them so memorable.

    Each season focuses on a different show, and each episode on one of the top 22 key characters and their impact on the show. But don't be surprised if you see a handful of scattered extras about aspects of the world itself, or minor characters that were too much fun to leave out.

    Join us as we dive into spooky yet familiar worlds, and be wary of dangers around every corner - the last thing you want is to fall victim to an "animal attack".

  • S1E13 - Elena Gilbert (Part 3)
    May 24 2024

    Waking nightmare! Sandile and Fadzai chronicle Elena Gilbert's transition into a newly-turned vampire.

    The main character of The Vampire Diaries, Elena enters her junior year a few months after losing her parents, trying to reclaim her life. She meets and falls in love with Stefan Salvatore, the charming and mysterious new student, who turns out to be a vampire returned to Mystic Falls. When Stefan's brother, Damon, appears, and people start dying in strange ways in her town, Elena finds herself falling into a dangerous web of the supernatural.

    Over the course of the series, she grapples with each new discovery - vampires, witches, werewolves - and how constant threat from ancient creatures changes her as she tries to keep herself and her loved ones safe. She also finds herself torn between her undying love for Stefan, and her undeniable attraction to Damon, all turned on its head when she unexpectedly dies and becomes a vampire herself. But she gets by with her friends, her wits, and her capacity for empathy and cunning in equal measure.


    (This episode focuses on Elena in seasons 3B and 4.)
