The Secret Circle Finale : First And Last One

 Well I just heard something very interesting. That's right, The Secret Circle has been cancelled. So this will be the last post about this show which was either a disappointment or a nice joke. I can't really decide.

So, as always there was some plot about the crystals, and Cassie blindly followed her daddy. They threw the crystals in some lake, then Cassie did her weird I-can-feel-the-magic thing, went into the lake and took out a jellyfish or something.

And the power was overwhelming and it gave her and Diana a mini-orgasm.

Then it turned into a skull. Mission accomplished.

Sadly, Daddy betrayed his daughters and trapped them while he was getting ready to exterminate all witches without Balcoin blood.

When all this was going on, this was going on :

Jake and Melissa found Faye but then they were kidnapped again. The witch hunters started burning them but luckily the parents arrived and saved the day. Meaning that Dawn stopped the fire with the magic she'd just gotten from Charles mother and that dear Charles took the demons. Like, he called out to them and they went up his nose and ears. Goodie !

Meanwhile, at the house of doom, Adam tried to be the hero, but he started burning and for some reason he made a little table move and of course Blackwell noticed and threw him away. Literally. And yes, that made me laugh.

Cassie and Diana were on their own, again. So Cassie decided to kill Diana.

But it was all just a brilliant strategy to get her to activate her dark magic, so that they could get out of their invisible cage and kill their Daddy.

I have often noticed that the actors on this show are always trying to convey strong emotions with extremely disturbing faces. This is the last post about The Secret Circle so I really wanted to share my mixed feelings about those strange facial expressions.

Anyway, everything went back to normal. Faye and Jake kissed.

Jake got a note from his grandpa. Where did it come from ? Who cares, right ?

And Adam wanted to experience the mini-orgasm thing with the skull. You know, normal.

But then, the dreadful sight of four young people with the mark of dark magic, meaning that the four other children of Blackwell were coming to Chance Harbor. Unfortunately, we won't get to see it. Bummer.

Well, I have to say I didn't think they were gonna cancel the show. Okay, it's dull and generic and poorly written and the cast might be the worst ever, but I thought it was gonna be this silly show that no one really cares about but that still got some viewers and fervent followers. But no. Goodbye Secret Circle, you have entertained me for a while, from time to time you made me forget how bored I was by making me laugh with a silly face, or a stupid reply or anything Cassie did or said. But it's over, farewell my friend. Perhaps you'll be missed.

The Secret circle : I'm losing hope ...

If I haven't already because quite frankly, I stopped thinking this show had any chance of competing with The Vampire Diaries around Nick's death, but still I found it to be entertaining, it became one of the funniest shows I knew. Sadly, I didn't laugh at all in the las three episodes (actually I haven't even really watched the last one), the ridicule is still there and believe me it is at its top, but it just doesn't do it for me anymore ...


Shall we begin ? First of all, Adam. Yeah let's get it out of the way. He's just won't stop getting happier and happier, seriously so much happiness in one guy ... Sooner or later it gets to you.

Happy face in episode 17

Starin' down before the throwin' down. He's a delight.

  Luckily there's Jake to keep me from crying over the obvious lack of (hot) guys in this show. But he's too busy staring at Adam to assess his superiority to actually be of any use, besides he was dying in that episode so ... yeah.

 That little fight in episode 17 was actually kind of funny to watch bu that whole throw-Jake-in-the-air-to-protect-your-stupid-boyfriend thing managed to wipe that giggly smile off my face in a few seconds (which, I realize, is actually quite long for a smile to disappear). And that dramatic moment afterwards like "Oh my go he killed what's-his-face" and "Are you okay honey-bunny ?" I mean, come on ! The guy that's supposedly your friend, and who by the way, is dying thanks to you, is lying on the floor after flying a few feet away, again, thanks to you, but I don't see you asking if he's okay ! No of course not, who cares right ? Tssss ...

 Yes that moment pissed me off. I'm gonna say they deserved what happened next :

I'll bet you didn't see THAT coming did you now ?

But of course I shouldn't make fun of this tragic love story. But that doesn't mean I'm gonna stop. You know how usually you automatically feel sympathy for someone crying ? Well, not here. I'm sorry she looks like a crazy person.

How do you like my poker face ?

Okay I'm done with the stupid sorta' triangle. All in all episode 18 was pretty much the same, with a big showdown in a graveyard at the end, the usual ... As always they played it perfectly.

All right, now with the useless new characters. First, the obnoxious needy girlfriend. Well, what can I say ? She's a psycho it's sad, but hey there's worse ...

And the rich-actually-poor sailer ... I find those stories boring and out of place, they have nothing to bring to the show they're just here to fill, so that it gets to 40 minutes.

Also, I may have blacked out during episode 18, but I didn't get the end. I mean, okay Cassie's father dug up a skeleton, he probably killed the poor fella and he is, once again, withholding information. Sure. But what exactly is the implication ? I think it's got something to do with the demons, but then again I may have passed out watching that episode.
