The Originals Cast Reacts to the Show Ending

The cast takes a moment to look back on five seasons of making The Originals and share some of their favorite moments as the hit CW show comes to an end.

Julie Plec does not get tired of killing off major character(s) during a series finale

[silakaplan]

JOSEPH SOUNDS VERY SAD I CANT HANDLE IF ITS ABOUT KLAUS DYING IN THE END

[trinityspeedy]

They should've had Elijah take the dark magic and die so Klaus could live with Hope and then it could end with Elijah and Hayley having their dance am I right?

[robertbrandon]

Klaus has taught me to never let anyone be above me and to kill my enemies

[esmehernandez]

I literally just finished watching and Im crying my eyes out and I can’t even breathe because of crying so much it’s just so heartbreaking Stephen now Klaus and Elijah it’s so heartbreaking I’ve never cried this much for a show

[DictatressTurja]

I knew the ending was going to kill Klaus and Elijah. Predictable.

But we deserved a happy ending scene with Elijah and Hayley, am I right? They mentioned, "I'm waiting for that dance." It was such a prominent mention. SO WHY NOT.

I remember this show premiering in October of 2013 and now it's coming to an end just surprises me. Time flies by too quickly.

Lets b honest the writing in The Originals was way better then TVD.. They should have not ended it so soon they didn’t even let it run for full 22 episodes ... #willmissthis

[tianamIV]

I don’t think I’ll ever get over Klaus’ death

[soulsearching]

Julie Plec needs to reevaluate her writing ending skills.

[eduardamaria]

Can't believe this is the last episode... i'm crying

[irinaisac]

my biggest regret for the finale, besides klaus dieing ofc, was the lack of a scene between marcel and klaus, klaus was basically his father and altough it wasn't really like that they should've had an individual goodbye (with freya too)

[xerinx]

Okay but this show is way better than tvd personally. And it’s so emotional I can’t find one show better than this. 😂❤️. Yes TVD has the better last 2 seasons but TO had the better starting seasons.

[Lev-qgtl]

This show, changed me somehow. The plot, the acting, it was like it was real. The Originals was a wonderful show, you can't change my mind.

[kagoya]

My favorite quote, by my favorite character, Elijah : "Over the course of my long life, I have come to believe that we are bound forever to those with whom we share blood. And while we may not choose our family, that bond can be our greatest strength, or our deepest regret. This unfortunate truth has haunted me for as long as I can recall."

[shamamallick]

I can't accept Klaus's death because I feel like Julie did this just because of the spin off. It would have been weird if Hope's parents were alive and did not come to see her. If it were not for legacies they could have gotten their happy ending. Hayley always said that she wanted something better for hope. Becoming an orphan isn't better. And it breaks my heart that Hayley at least saw hope grow up into a teenager. Klaus had very little time with her. This is heart breaking. I an already terrifies about my results because I messed up on an exam and now I am depressed about this and now I can't concentrate on anything because I am crying. This is shit.

They rushed the hell out of the ending..pretty pissed.

[aariachaudhary]

After reading the comments I get to know that I'm not the only one who's depressed about the ending..i literary thought that something was wrong with me as why I am feeling so sad day and night about this show

[yasmineclinton]

I actually cried and I couldn't stop cause this show was my favorite show and it ended and when they stabbed each other I couldn't stop crying

[SharaceG]

Sorry Julie but the ending was a disaster. I know it showed brotherly love and showed Klaus' redemption but I think Elijah should have just transferred the magic into himself and died there. And... where was the reunion between Elijah and Hayley? Did Klaus and Elijah even find peace? Caroline? Hope? WE NEED A REWRITE.
