I have a life, I really do. Yet still I re-watched the pilot episode of The Vampire Diaries when it premiered tonight. It was a whole lot of set up with a lot of promise, but the scene I enjoyed the most was between Stefan and Damon.
You can read my preview post outlining the similarities between The Vampire Diaries, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and just about every other vampire show out there, but I think the strength in this show is going to be the tale between the two brothers.
If they develop the characters right, there will be some strong supporting characters and intriguing storylines, but right now, this show’s a tale of two brothers.
As broody and Angel-like as Stefan may be, I think I’m going to relish the scenes with Damon, Stefan’s foil, because he’s fun. His lines were snappy barbs, showcasing his evil playfulness. It’s going to be a blast watching Angel and Angelus face off, don’t you think?

You didn’t feel this was just “Twilight” revamped?
I sure did.

There were elements of it, definitely, and I’m a huge Twilight hater so I really don’t want it to be that! I’m hoping they take it deeper and focus on other storylines aside from the lame “I love you because you’re weak and helpless, and oh, you look like someone I used to love” thing. More Damon, please!
i like it, and these is the real thing, these books are older that “Twilight”, so is the other way arround. Looks like a real fun series, so i will be watching :)
