I do love Candice Accola as Caroline and Ian Somerhalder as Damon though. They're both fantastic actors. And, if nothing else, the show sure knows how to keep its viewers in suspense!Natalie https://www.blogger.com/profile/15879112865868418812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3868395077988310106.post-52608416323087453452011-11-06T09:23:55.248-08:002011-11-06T09:23:55.248-08:00Hmmnn...maybe I'll try it out.

You ...Vampire Diaries is my favorite show on TV!!! You sound like my sister...I beg her to watch it all the time and she always doesn't. She likes Twilight. She likes True Blood. I know she'd like this one too! Anyway...I'm obsessed with Damon. Obsessed! Although if it took them 5 seasons to finally get together I wouldn't mind...I love all the flirting!<br /><br />About S3--this show just gets better and better!

LOL. I have tried True Blood before but stopped. I should probably get on that too.. my love for vampires is back! Oh and S3 is pretty epic so far.Jillianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07629286727932554109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3868395077988310106.post-36440006303232017982011-11-05T17:38:57.970-07:002011-11-05T17:38:57.970-07:00I looooove The Vampire Diaries.

And I have to agree with Caroline. She is one of my favorite characters!! She used to be a ditzy blonde but now she's one awesome vampire. <br /><br />Nathan - no it's good that you liked it from the start! I wish I liked it then too. But then again I kind of like the fact that I watched 2 full seasons without stopping hahaJillianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07629286727932554109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3868395077988310106.post-14946876791727465792011-11-05T14:07:14.940-07:002011-11-05T14:07:14.940-07:00Aw now I feel bad coz I liked it from the get-go.....Aw now I feel bad coz I liked it from the get-go... or does that make me cool? :P<br />Either way I'm glad you're on board, n how awesomes season 3 been ey?!<br />p.s.

The one thing I wish they'd kept was Bonnie's heritage. In the book's she has druid ancestors, so that's where her magic comes from, which I always thought was so cool because it made me think of Merlin, and I prefer it to the whole Salem witch thing...plus, I'm not a big fan of show Bonnie, although she was kind of annoying in the books too. :P<br /><br />The biggest change I love though is Caroline. She is SOOOOO different in the books, and I thought that they made her so freaking awesome in the show. I love her and Tyler so much! :D And I also remember thinking that it was stupid how they changed Elena's little sister into a teenage brother, but I love Jeremy and he's so much better than the little sister. Elena's also way more likeable in the show, she's so perfect in the books that it'd annoy you if you didn't feel bad for her for losing her parents. <br /><br />Anyways, now that I've told you why I didn't initially watch it, I have to totally agree with you about the writing, and Damon...oh Damon, loved him in the books and I love him in the show! (I haven't really been trying to keep up with the books anymore because they totally get rid of Damon...they better keep him on the show :S), and I agree with Jillian, the music on the show is fantastic...and most of the stuff they play are artists I already like! :D<br /><br />I'm also a total Secret Circle fan now too! haha My friend and I watch TVD on Thursday nights together and we've been watching Secret Circle after, and we're both totally hooked now! haha <br /><br />Thanks for sharing your Vampire Diaries love with us, I can totally relate, to your love for it and your reluctance to watch it...I used to complain to my friends about how they changed it all the time, and now I gush about it, and my friends just laugh at me for flipping sides so drastically! haha<br /><br />:DAmburHostynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10269572610984100581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3868395077988310106.post-20248121065473515572011-11-05T08:44:50.224-07:002011-11-05T08:44:50.224-07:00OOohhh yes, the music for this show is ALWAYS so g...OOohhh yes, the music for this show is ALWAYS so good.

I like how fast it moves, how scary it gets, and of course, perhaps I better not start gushing about Damon.Jo Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00917704326736252690noreply@blogger.com
