We Need Your Help
Posted by Ruthie • 45 Comments »

It is killing me to write this post. But I didn’t know where else to turn. My family and I aren’t doing well financially. In fact, we are going through one of the worst times in our life. We need help. That’s just really the only way to put it. I can say, that things will be getting better for us very soon, because my husband just landed a job that will definitely turn things around for us. But he won’t be starting his new job for 3 more weeks, and then of course it won’t be but a couple more weeks before he sees his first paycheck. We do receive additional income monthly for our son, he was diagnosed with Autism at age 5, but it’s only enough to pay our rent, and afterwards we are left with nothing for groceries, gas, etc. My husband’s current job barely pays enough to cover our other utilities. His mother has had to help us so much, and she is running out of money. We don’t want to have to continue to ask from her.

Vampire Diaries renewed for a 2nd season!
Posted by Allison (admin) • 1 Comment »

As if we had any doubts…

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) – The CW has issued early series renewals to five shows — freshman breakout hit “The Vampire Diaries,” Josh Schwartz’s “Gossip Girl,” sophomore soap “90210,” veteran drama “Supernatural” and the network’s flagship reality staple “America’s Next Top Model.”

All will return next fall.

“Vampire Diaries” quickly became The CW’s most-watched show, averaging 4.6 million viewers. On Thursdays, “Diaries” has aided “Supernatural,” which has improved over last season among the network’s target demo of women 18-34.

Absent from the list: “Melrose Place,” which is considered unlikely to return; “Smallville,” which is very likely to get a 10th season; and “bubble” shows that could go either way, “One Tree Hill” and “Life Unexpected.”

Vampire Diaries “162 Candles” Recap From Off-Color TV
Posted by Ruthie • 5 Comments »

Check out this great recap from SB over at Off-Color TV!  Just keep in mind it’s full of spoilers from last night’s episode of The Vampire Diaries “162 Candles”, so if you haven’t watched it yet and don’t want to be spoiled come back later!  Here’s a couple of my favorite snippets and you can read the rest HERE.  And be sure and follow Off-Color TV on Twitter too!

On Lexi:

“She just brought so much balance to the show, and I think it was needing that.  Damon is crazy evil, which is fun but he’s been able to run rampant so far.  Stefan is crazy good, but he’s good to the point of being a little boring (sorry, Stefan, doesn’t mean we don’t love you!) the last few episodes.  Lexi was great because she was a nice mix, proving that maybe in another 200 years Stefan and Damon will be able to achieve some sort of balance in their lives.  She was good in that she drank blood bank blood rather than taking it from humans, and she was Team Stefan, after all, but she also had the fun side of Damon, as well as the snark, and was willing to be a scary vampire if she had to.  And she did have to, to keep Damon in check.  She was so pretty, but not in a generic teen queen way, which I liked, and she was a little sassy but in a cute way, and so sweet to Elena.  It was just nice to have such a multi-dimensional female who was just there, hanging out, not causing drama or tension (not purposely, anyway), and I LOVED her.  Have I said that already?  Whatever, I totally did.  And she and Stefan having a theme song, and it being “Wanted, Dead or Alive,” no less?  Awesome.”

On Bonnie’s Reveal of her secret:

“Running parallel to Stefan having Lexi to talk to, we had Elena feeling pretty isolated, especially when Bonnie revealed her witch secret to Elena.  That storyline appears to be moving now too, which is good, and you guys, can I just say that the witch reveal with the feathers was one of the most beautiful scenes ever?  I LOVED it.  It felt like it belonged in some magical Tim Burton movie, like Big Fish or something.  AWESOME visual, and I like how it really stood in contrast for Elena–it was a secret and she was leery of that at first, but it was so beautiful and fun and nonthreatening/nonscary that rather than be a burden to her, it was a sweet bonding moment between her and Bonnie.  And it made total sense that she wanted to tell Bonnie what was going on at that point–you finally felt like their friendship had some substance.  And I loooved Bonnie crawling into bed with Elena and having a quick girl talk.  It wasn’t tiresome, it just kind of got done what it needed to get done and led us forward.  Perfect.”

Vampire Diaries Fan Encounter with Paul Wesley!
Posted by Ruthie • 13 Comments »

First I would like to thank Only Paul Wesley for bringing this to our attention. They posted some set pics and a recap from a fan encounter.  Jessica and her daughter Brannan live in the Covington GA area, and were very lucky to happen upon the filming of the Oct 29th episode!!  Check out her pics below and her recap that she was more than happy to provide me with when I contacted her through her myspace!

My daughter and I both love to read. We enjoyed the Vampire Diaires books and couldn’t wait for the show. In the first few weeks as the previews started posting for the show on the CW we were waiting in anticipation! Then the greatest thing ever, our local paper said “The Vampire Diairies to be filmed in Covington, GA!” I couldnt believe my eyes! My daughter Brannan was more excited then I was….then one day right in the middle of our town square in front of “Mystic Grill” stood the very SEXY Ian and Paul! So of course we became the local papparazzi; taking pictures and watching them for hours and hours filming! We had a blast, the episode they were taping actually ended up being the one that will air on Oct 29th.

After a while, I saw Paul Wesley (Stefan) standing over to the side, I told my daughter that, that was our chance. I walked right up to him and asked him if he would mind a few pictures with us. Paul was awesome he put his arm around my daughter and smiled and everything. I really couldn’t have been more pleased with our meeting and he couldnt have been more inviting. It just goes to show you actors really are nice to us small towners. For the sake of my daughter, hopefully we will have more pictures to come. The show is filming 90% of the series here in Covington and so at any possible moment we will be able to try and catch them again. Thankfully the crew was really great about letting us watch and see what was going on! So UNTIL NEXT TIME!

Here are the pics:
