Daddy decides for everybody
This review may contain spoilers Eben (Sammi Rotibi) will exchange Faye (Phoebe Tonkin) for a crystal. Without all six no one can make the skull weapon. He's hanging out at the abandoned ferry (why is it still there?) for the poetic full-circle-ness of it all. Diana (Shelley Hennig) doesn't w ...
Read MoreCrystals, demons and prom mix poorly
This review may contain spoilers It seems that the only person in this universe with any ability to plan is John Blackwell (Joe Lando). Everyone else is too distracted by frivolity or immediate gratification needs to think past the next half hour. John gives Cassie (Britt Robertson) a spell to ...

Read MoreCasino night is a bust
This review may contain spoilers This is another middling episode, setting up circumstances for later resolution. Cassie (Britt Robertson) sees John (Joe Lando) looking for a "sway," which Adam (Thomas Dekker) and Nick had found when the kids first moved into Briar Hill. Adam thinks a sway ...
Read MoreHere's Daddy!
This review may contain spoilers A particularly nonsensically plotted episode, "Return" finally introduces the near-mythical John Blackwell (Joe Lando) ... and he's pretty boring. He claims that when his generation was stripped of their powers, his regular and dark magic were both also taken ...
