WhenJeremy die inThe Vampire Diariesseason 6 , it seemed like it was seek to stick in a spinoff following the type ’s biography as a vampire hunter . Steven R. McQueen even joked at the time about being open to the mind .

A Jeremy spinoff would have been the pure pick because Jeremy had outgrown Mystic Falls , but that did n’t mean fans block caring about him . A spinoff could ’ve explored his vampire hunting outside the confines of his hometown . He would ’ve had plentiful way to proceed his quality growth and show what lamia look like elsewhere . Unfortunately , this spinoff never descend to fruition , potential because the CW already had two shows within the same universe .

Julie Plec Could Still Make A Jeremy Spinoff

Since Julie Plec still wants to createanotherVampire Diariesspinoff afterLegacies , this opens the door to a show focalize on Jeremy ’s life as a lamia hunter . histrion Steven R.

Most importantly , a Jeremy spinoff does n’t have as many limitations as most potentialVampire Diariesspinoffs . Because he is n’t a lamia , it does n’t matter that fourth dimension has passed since the original show . His aging is n’t an issue for the tale unity . Except for Bonnie , Jeremy is the most belovedVampire Diariescharacter who does n’t look this potential problem . SinceThe Vampire Diaries ’ Kat Graham sound out she would n’t return , Jeremy is the best pick from the original cast to lead a fresh spinoff .

The Vampire Diaries is ill-famed for killing off its characters and fetch them back after their deaths , even if it ’s just as ghostwriter or smell .

A Jeremy Spinoff Would Be Better Than ALegaciesSpinoff

If Plec keep abreast through on making a new spinoff , there would be a few possible commission she could go . The most obvious choice would be to create a spinoff fromLegacies , the newest addition tothe Vampire Diariesuniverse . However , this would be a massive mistake . first of all , most of the character in this show also have the same eld limitation as characters from the original series . Since actors continue to get on while the characters stay put , there ’s a built - in time limit on the potential spinoff .

The Jeremy spinoff could gain back the hearing thatLegacieslost .

to boot , many rooter ofThe Vampire DiariesandThe Originalsdidn’t likeLegacies . They felt like the characters were n’t as compelling , and the show was too campy . A series focusing on a grapheme fromLegacieswould bring in a smaller interview than focus on someone from the original serial publication . The Jeremy spinoff could profit back the consultation thatLegacieslost . It will also invoke to fans of the originalVampire Diariesseries because of the nostalgia factor .
