Episode 1.17 The Replacement

[Tim]

No one can replace Harry.  No one.

Tessa is much more in your face than Harry is.  I mean dumping a corpse in the middle of the sister's living room.

Still, the sisters more or less put up with her.  They don't like her, and want Harry back, but still they do work with her when needed.

I'm glad the villain wasn't a vampire.  We don't need anymore vampire rubbish.  Loved the jab at Twilight.  Wished they could have jabbed Julie Plec's rubbish, but I don't think the CW would have allowed that.

Oh look, Galvin's back.  Yay   However, since he broke up with Macy at the end, because he couldn't accept her for who she is, could this be the last we see of him?  Please, let it be so.

Loved how Mel and Maggie were there to comfort Macy.  We need more sister moments like that.

Poor Mel, having to work at Nico's engagement party.  Still, at the end, when Niko confronts her about all  the weird stuff going on, Mel reveals her secret, she's a witch.  So Niko is now let in on the secret.

Then Mel finds that all the Sarcana, except Jada, have been massacred.  Jada tells Mel that Fiona did it, and that Harry was with her.

At the end, the Vera sisters, knowing that they could no longer trust the Elders, vow to track Harry and Fiona down themselves.

Except for the whole Harry is missing thing, this could have been a stand alone episode.  I liked it.

You basically said everything I was gonna say. This was actually a pretty good episode despite Galvin's return, and I even liked the way he was (hopefully) written off for good. Not messy at all and realistic for both characters.

I look forward to checking it out when I can, since I missed it being busy on Easter Sunday.

I hope this is how they write out Galvin for good.

Sad that Harry was missing an episode. This would be his first, I'm sure fans were more upset he was absent and felt it, than Galvin, who people wouldn't care or feel his absence for many weeks.

Glad I could help

And I hope he stays gone, his story is over.

Now, if they would only get rid of Parker as well.  However, since his character is vital to the current storyline, I guess we're stuck with him.

I'm sure most fans felt that way.
