I started watching The Vampire Diaries when it arrived in the UK on ITV2, after the first 15 minutes of Episode 1 I was hooked! As a teenager I had loved programmes such as Buffy and Dawson's Creek, and TVD is a quality combination of both, which is not surprising considering the writing team behind it! The writers, Kevin Williamson and Julie Plec have struck just the right cord! Kevin Williamson has previously been involved with Dawson's Creek and both where involved with the Scream films, and you can tell! TVD is full of the teenage angst you would expect and the suspense and shock of a horror film. But be warned there is a hell of a lot to take in! I have ...  Read the complete review

If you ask any of my friends they will tell you that, other than perfume and handbags, I am addicted to US drama. My best friend Elizabeth told me to watch the series the Vampire Diaries as she was hooked on it and wanted someone to gossip with about the series. As I was too late to catch the series on ITV2 I decided to buy the first series. What is this series about? : Starting as a series of novels by L. J. Smith, the Vampire Diaries is based in the fictional town of Mystic Falls (which is apparently set in Virginia) in America. The town Mystic Falls (not only aptly named mystic for the fact that strange things happen here) seems to be a place ...  Read the complete review

Those of you that have been reading my reviews for some time will know that I am a bit of a Twilight obsessive. I love the whole love story going on in the saga and I think Edward Cullen is pretty much the perfect man in the world and surely nobody else could come close to being that perfect?! Well, then someone suggested to me that I take a look at The Vampire Diaries and at first I wasn't sure, but given my love for Twilight I decided it would be worth a go and I never looked back. The Vampire Diaries is set in a small American town named Mystic Falls. It seems the kind of town where everyone knows everyone and also everyone is super beautiful! The town ...  Read the complete review

The Story Without giving too much away, The Vampire Diaries is a TV programme based on the books written by L.J. Smith and tells the love story of a vampire boy (Stefan) and human girl (Elena) set in high school in the small town of Mystic Falls. You may think this sounds very similar to Twilight and in some respects it is, however the twist in this story is that Elena is identical to a Vampire called Kathrine, with whom Stefan and his vampire brother Damon were both madly in love with when they were still human over 100 years ago, but who is thought to have died in a fire in the 1800s. The likeness between Elena and Katherine is what first captured Stefan's ...  Read the complete review
