The AMPire Diaries Episode 27: “Homecoming” | “The New Deal”
Oh, AMPies. It’s that time again—time for a new episode. And this week, it’s all about “Homecoming” (Season 3, Episode 9—not a decade dance) and “New Deal” (Season 3, Episode 10). So here is what we’re talking, baby:
- For Morgan's sake, please don't cancel Katherine Pierce.
- My Morning Jacket.
- Quentin Tarantino.
- Why LaToya can't watch the classic television series E.R.
- “Daddy D.”
- Team Dummy.
- Who should kiss Bonnie? (Spoiler alert: Not Jeremy.)
- Reassessing "Miss Mystic Falls."
- Who is the Spike of TVD? (Spoiler alert: Not Damon.)
- How it’s three seasons into this show and Bonnie doesn't have a house.
- Give us the call sheet. We want that call sheet.
- Klaus’ type.
- Free will: Good or bad?
- Class discussion (or lack thereof) in teen dramas from this era, and generational wealth in TVD.
- Jeremy Gilbert vs. Dawn Summers.
- "The only good thing Jeremy has ever done." - Jill
- Torrey DeVitto and Army Wives.
- Ric's broken ring.
There might also be a surprise segment in this episode… but you gotta listen to a good portion of this nearly three-hour (only 49 seconds shy of that distinction) episode to find out. You also gotta listen to hear the wildest Jill rankings ever, especially because my (LaToya here!) mic falls over during it. That’s how wild it is.
“ROCK BAND My Morning Jacket PERFORMS” (“Homecoming”)
“A REASON TO FEEL GUILTY” (“The New Deal”)
The more AMPED logline this time around? Technically, it should be “The New Deal,” but “Homecoming” invokes the fact that My Morning Jacket is just casually part of this episode—something we discuss at length in this episode. “Homecoming,” it is.
