Vampire Diaries

Oh, it's a new guilty pleasure and the boys are so pretty!
This show is not the best thing in the world, but it is enjoyable. I'm liking the unfolding story of how the borthers became vampires, turned against each other, and yet can't let go of each other. Damon is so deliciously evil! Just as a vamp should be and Stephan is the predictable vegetarian in love with a human. Let me just say that these actors are so much better than the actors of Twilight!!!!
The characters are likable and multi-layered. I find the worst to be the tug of war between Stephan and Elena and I'm hoping there is resolution soon (I think there will be). The parallels between the folks from the past and now is quite entriguing (especially Bonnie, who is my fav and a witch)!
Although this is written for teens, it is much more savvy than most teen vamp stories and it appears to have potential.
