Vampire Diaries renewed for a 2nd season!

February 16th, 2010 | Posted by Allison (admin) in Miscellaneous | News - (3 Comments)

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.”

Brace Yourselves For Another Hiatus

February 7th, 2010 | Posted by VDO in Julie Plec | News | Vampire Diaries Hiatus - (32 Comments)

I’ve known about this since my set visit, but wasn’t given the go ahead to post about it. But now, since it’s pretty much been announced by all the other fansites and Julie Plec mentioned in the Episode 14 “Fool Me Once” preview video that the episode will be their “winter finale”, I’m sure it’s safe to go ahead and mention it. Yes, after Episode 14 that will air on February 11th, The Vampire Diaries will go on a 6 week hiatus, and will not return until March 25th. Trust me, I’m not happy about this either. These hiatuses are no fun at all. But the Winter Olympics will be going on and this will also ensure that the show will be on air during May Sweeps. Go ahead and get all your frustrations out in the comment section…

December 29th, 2009 | Posted by VDO in News | Vampire Diaries Moments - (6 Comments)

FearNet has listed their Top 9 Favorite Spooky, Scary, Bloody Moments of 2009 and The Vampire Diaries’ “Haunted” weighs in at #9.

The year is winding down, and it’s time to look back on 2009 with our favorite spooky, scary, bloody moments on television.  Some of them are the usual suspects, like Dexter and True Blood.  Others are a little unlikely.  Read on for our list presented in alphabetical order and let us know if you agree…

The Vampire Diaries – “Haunted”
In this pivotal episode, Vicki, a main character dies.  But she doesn’t go quietly.  She had spent the last few episodes dealing with “the change” which left her frantic with confusion and bloodlust.  Stefan desperately tries to help her through the change, first by trying to prevent her from going full-vamp, then by trying to teach her that a diet of only animal blood is possible.  But when Vicki’s bloodlust gets out of control and she brutally attacks Elena, Stefan doesn’t hesitate to stake her.

Read the rest of the moments!!

November 16, 2009 (Burbank, CA) ? The CW Network today announced plans for a special Vampire Diaries Marathon starting on Monday, December 14.  This week-long event offers fans the opportunity to relive The Vampire Diaries saga from the very beginning and allows the uninitiated the chance to get into one of TV’s breakout hits.

Airing two episodes each night from Monday, Dec. 14 through Friday, Dec. 18 (8:00-10:00p.m. ET/PT) beginning with the season premiere episode, The CW will rebroadcast every episode of its smash hit The Vampire Diaries in consecutive order across its entire primetime schedule that week.  After just 10 episodes, The Vampire Diaries has become The CW’s most-watched and highest-rated series among adults 18-34 this season.

Based on the best-selling series of books by L. J. Smith, The Vampire Diaries is the story of two vampire brothers obsessed with the same beautiful girl, and battling to control the fate of an entire town.  Beautiful high school student Elena Gilbert (Nina Dobrev, “DeGrassi: The Next Generation”) has no way of knowing that the handsome and mysterious new boy in school, Stefan Salvatore (Paul Wesley, “Mad Men”), is a centuries-old vampire.  While Stefan struggles to live peacefully among humans, his older brother Damon (Ian Somerhalder, “Lost”) is the embodiment of vampire violence and brutality.  Now these two vampire brothers ? one good, one evil ? are at war for Elena’s soul and for the souls of her friends, family and all the residents of the small town of Mystic Falls.

The Vampire Diaries is from Alloy Entertainment and Bonanza Productions Inc in association with Warner Bros. Television and CBS Television Studios with executive producers Kevin Williamson (“Scream,” “Dawson’s Creek”), Julie Plec (“Kyle XY,” “Wasteland”), Leslie Morgenstein (“Gossip Girl,” “Private”) and Bob Levy (“Gossip Girl,” “Privileged”).

The Vampire Diaries On Hiatus Until January 14th 2010

November 14th, 2009 | Posted by VDO in News - (67 Comments)

UPDATE: Well…here’s your proof folks. Vampire-Diaries.net has a scan of next week’s Soap Opera Weekly featuring an interview with Julie Plec and confirms the show will be on an 8 week hiatus after next week’s episode. Read the very first paragraph.

The word on the net, is that after next week’s episode “The Turning Point”, The Vampire Diaries will be on hiatus until January 14, 2010.  The Futon Critic tweeted the bombshell last night:

“This just in: the November 19 episode of SUPERNATURAL (and presumably VAMPIRE DIARIES) will be the last original until January 14″

As soon as I get confirmation, I’ll update this post.  If this is true, it will be very sad times indeed.  That’s an awfully long time to wait huh?  I can see them not having a show the week of Thanksgiving, but nothing throughout the entire month of December??  It is true that we currently don’t have any other episode titles or summaries though, so it actually makes sense.  But I’m also surprised that we haven’t heard anything about it too.  Just wanted to give you guys the heads up.

EW‘s Michael Ausiello reported today that Sean Faris (Formerly of Reunion) will join the cast of The Vampire Diaries!  Check out the scoop!

sean-faris-vampire-diariesThirsty for some Vampire Diaries scoop? Former Reunion eye candy Sean Faris is sinking his teeth into a juicy multi-episode arc on the fangtastic CW hit, sources confirm to me exclusively.

Faris will play Ben, an ex-high school football star-turned-bartender at the Mystic Grill. “He’s Matt’s buddy,” says a Vampire insider. “He gets entangled in the group when a broke Matt takes a job at the Mystic Grill.”

The Vamp source also hints at a possible romance between Ben and one of the show’s females. But which one? Let the speculation begin in the comments!

October 21st, 2009 | Posted by VDO in News - (3 Comments)

Well…it’s a official! EW’s Ausiello reported today that The Vampire Diaries has been officially picked up for a full season. That means instead of 13 episodes, we will have 22 episodes of this amazing TV show that I am completely and utterly in love with!!! Here’s the scoop!

This just in: Sources confirm that The CW has picked up The Vampire Diaries for a full season and Melrose Place for, well, a sorta-full season.

The back-nine order for Diaries was a no-brainer. The Kevin Williamson-produced thriller scored The CW’s best premiere ratings ever and has been a consistent demo dynamo on Thursday night.
