David Anders (Uncle John)

It was nice of them to give this much-hated character an honorable death.
It was a bit unexpected.
He was just finally coming into his own as a dad.

Bob Mahoney/The CW
He was owning his fatherhood.”
It took two full days just to achieve that sequence.”
Phoebe Tonkin (Hayley)

Daniel Gillies (Elijah Mikaelson)
“Very little was described to me in the beginning.
They didnt know what they wanted to do with Elijah.
It was never anyones intention to make him Klaus brother.

Annette Brown/The CW
I suppose Ill miss being Bond-ish.
Damons had a great run.
There are no real words that will give it justice.

Its more than just a creative experience.
It was more than just being on a TV show.”

I love that episode so much.
‘Ghost World’ was such an incredibly difficult episode to find the right tone for.

Annette Brown/ The CW
I became a parent doing this job.
Its been a very healing process.”
It feels more final.

Annette Brown/The CW
Its more almost like closure.
Everyones been very nostalgic; its a bittersweet ending.”
