    121 - The Originals - Exquisite Corpse
    Aug 23 2025
    The AMPire Diaries Episode 121: The Originals - “Exquisite Corpse” This BODY is INCREDIBLE? NUH. This CORPSE is EXQUISITE. Yeah. That’s more like it. (And yes, I realized after the fact that this bit fits the Drake “Hotline Bling” meme. Sorry for that unintentional corniness. I was actually originally going for The Social Network corniness.) The second season of The Originals really is cooking with propane. That’s because, this week, your favorite Vampire Diaries rewatch-slash-first-time watch (and still mostly spoiler-free) combination podcast is discussing The Originals’ “Exquisite Corpse” (Season 2, Episode 17). Which means we’re talking: - …for 8 and a half minutes (and this is the ABRIDGED version) about things that AREN’T TVDU-related in the intro, in case you wanna skip some dog co-host and movie etiquette talk. - Ex​quisite Corpse, a signature scent. - P.S. LaToya had some audio issues in this one–mostly resolved in the edit–but there are moments when she’s not as clear as she usually would be on mic. - Women’s rights and women’s wrongs, as exemplified by Freya Mikaelson and Eva Sinclair. - What GOOD sexpionage looks like, STEVE. Here’s that sexy Bonnie and Clyde shit we were looking for. - Ya gotta watch Blindspot, gang. Ya just gotta. - We just know that Claire still won’t sign SHIT. God love her. - The lack of urgency we’ve been dealing with from the Mikaelsons lately… it’s because Klaus simply hasn’t been paying attention to this season. (Couldn’t be us.) - Is Marcel being a bad dad or a cool (aka “badd”) dad? - Look, you’ll never catch your AMPie Queens ending up in a horror movie. - The Magic Limbo. - Hayley… We love you, girl… But you’ve gotta stop being such a bitca to other women. (But also, never stop. It’s really funny..) “CONTROLLING THE DEMON” (“Exquisite Corpse”... and wow, I guess that means we really should’ve listened to the episode’s voiceover more than we did…) Whether you’re a Vampire Diaries obsessive or newcomer, join along with hosts LaToya Ferguson (@lafergs—AMPie Queen, Vampire Diaries obsessive) and Morgan Lutich (@LorganMutich—AMPie Queen, Vampire Diaries obsessive) on their continuing podcast journey.* Most importantly, get AMPED (and horny) along with them on this journey. Ya gotta get AMPED. * And sometimes Jill Defiel (@jiilbobaggins—AMPie Queen, Vampire Diaries newcomer, now former host) and Michael Chasin (@mchasin—AMPie Boy, Vampire Diaries obsessive, sort of host).

    The AMPire Diaries Episode 120: The Vampire Diaries - “A Bird in a Gilded Cage” Alright, now is the time to get serious, AMPies. We’re in a post-“Downward Spiral” world after all now. Not that any of our Mystic friends seem to really care about that. Oh boy. This week, your favorite Vampire Diaries rewatch-slash-first-time watch (and still mostly spoiler-free) combination podcast is discussing The Vampire Diaries “A Bird in a Gilded Cage” (Season 6, Episode 17). Which means we’re talking: - You know, it really is silly to get mad about things that haven’t even happened yet… - …except for in our case, where we are absolutely right to be furious about things that will happen in the future of the TVDU - Matty Blue > Matty Blue Lives Matter - Has any fictional character had more dead parents than Elena Gilbert? - Trying to make a good impression on your boyfriend’s mass murderer of a mom (it’s harder than you think) - Are Enzo and Damon even friends anymore? - Okay, but really: What are they doing (or not doing) with our boy Enzo? - Watch out, Enzo: There's a new Cruel Intentions plan in town - LaToya and Morgan’s worst argument yet, over something VERY stupid - PARKER ABRAMS CAST - A lot of bleeps, going back to that whole ‘getting mad about things that haven’t even happened yet’ thing - But Lily Salvatore! She started off so good! - Looks like Jolly Rancher (singular) is back on the menu, AMPies “DAMON TRAVELS TO THE 1903 PRISON WORLD” (“A Bird in a Gilded Cage”) Whether you’re a Vampire Diaries obsessive or newcomer, join along with hosts LaToya Ferguson (@lafergs—AMPie Queen, Vampire Diaries obsessive) and Morgan Lutich (@LorganMutich—AMPie Queen, Vampire Diaries obsessive) on their continuing podcast journey.* Most importantly, get AMPED (and horny) along with them on this journey.
