I wonder how much lower ratings have to go before JP figures out that on one gives a crap about Boman's contrived friendship o Bonnie in general at this point. Season 7 has absolutely RUINED Bonnie's character. She is a lousy friend to Elena and Damon. I wish Bonnie would just hurry up and die.

Season 7 has absolutely RUINED Bonnie's character. She is a lousy friend to Elena and Damon. I wish Bonnie would just hurry up and die. Yeah I feel like Bonnie only got this much screen time because in addition to Nina leaving, Candace took a few work days off due to her pregnancy which is why there also hasn't been a lot of Caroline lately either. I think next season will go back to having Caroline as leading lady like how it was more to the beginning of this season. But this season Bonnie's character definitely took a turn for the worst. It doesn't make sense why suddenly she was such a one track mind for Damon. Why would JP suddenly write Bonnie this way? The Bamon actor service was one thing but why did the character feel more like Kat Graham actually wrote the script and not JP? Though if there's one thing, whether Bonnie still gets a major focus in the storyline for next season, at least we know JP's stance on Bamon and don't have to fear all the Bamon scenes as we once thought were romantic baits in the beginning. JP said anything you thought was romantic or jealously wasn't and not meant to be interpreted that way so that's one thing to be relieved about.

That's just it, they seemed like romantic baits and they really could have been testing the water which they found were cold...LOL But why make Bonnie so anti-Elena anyway? She really comes off that way any more, like she doesn't give a crap about her anymore.

For real? It has been practically spelled out for them in the show so many times now. Even if they could have seen something that wasn't intended it was quickly squashed by the dialogue about Elena. They were so damn smug. too, that I don't feel very sorry for them right now at all. I kept reading garbage about BD having sex on the coffin and how all the DE fans would be crying come the finale. So go ahead and cry BDers...you earned it.

I seriously do still think they baited BD to see how it did and it failed miserably as the ratings slowly sank and that's why they changed direction with it all. There was just too much baiting to think it was all just misunderstood by the BD fans. While they did explain Damon's 'discomfort' about Bonenzo, that one scene bothered me a lot as you all know and gave the BDers more fuel. They skirted the line with all the 'bestie' stuff to the point that it was laughably unbelievable. The thing about the BD fans is that they ignore the obvious anti-Bamon stuff while believing any shred of BD baiting and that's why they are where they are scratching their heads wondering what happened. Well they didn't pay attention, that's what happened.
A good percentage of them are claiming they are quitting the show. I doubt it will make a difference in the ratings come next season. At this point even the ones left have to realize BD can never happen, not where it currently stands. They've barely become friends again with Bonnie saying she forgave Damon and now Damon is off on a dark binge for at least a few episodes where the effort will be to bring him back from that dark place. If it's the last season then Elena will be back at the end of it and I can't say for sure if they won't pull the rug out from under all of us in the end but it sure looks like BD is dead in the water at this point, especially given that Kat and even Ian say they aren't coming back for a season 9. I think Ian can be persuaded with $ if they wanted to keep going but they will let Kat go and if he can't be persuaded then the series will end next season.

I will say that they are going all out with the Bonenzo stuff though to solidify that relationship and Bonnie will be hellbent on saving them both, Damon as her friend and Enzo as her boyfriend. She was able to stop herself from killing Enzo but it took Matt to stop her from killing Damon so that should tell you something right there.
Speaking of Matt, he turned into crap at the end. That's a sad farewell to Matty blue eyes. He would have never turned on his friends. He was loyal to a fault, even in the books. JP didn't do him justice.

They led themselves on...it's kind of like when you had a crush on that certain boy and every time he looked your way you imagined he was looking at you...that's how BD is.

Definitely, and it started in a Season 6, which is why I quit watching. Boman should have never even had the contrived friendship, IMO. It's been annoying from day 1 and such obvious actor service.

I felt like it was more of actor fanservice and the Nian break up that ultimately led to things being written more this way. Bamon's dynamic was pretty much non existent until season 6, and by then Nian were already in the rocks with season 5 giving us only the bare bones of DE scenes. JP invented the contrived friendship because Ian/Kat were excited/wanted to work together more and again Nian's relationship was already rocky. Ian never really even talked so much/promote Bamon in the beginning of the show's lifespan until recently when the Nian break up stuff started happening anyways.
Then with that in mind it seemed like even though JP was willing to give them more scenes, she was never really willing to go farther than that. I think as JP said, BDs did look at scenes more as romantic and jealously than what she intended for it to ever be. There's still no confirmed canon feelings of love from either Damon or Bonnie, it's still no sided so I don't really feel like JP did bait anything. A bait feels more like DE in season 3, there were romantic implications all over the place and even a kiss near the last half of the season but she did a complete 180 in the finale. That feels more like a leading fans on moment compared to what BDs are claiming here.
