If you didn’t see this coming where have you been? After picking up the pilot for VAMPIRE DIARIES, TV network The CW have now decided to pick the series up! Well… Duh. The whole point of even making this series of young adult novels into a product was to capitalize off the whole TWILIGHT thing… so why wouldn’t this one get picked up?
Alas perhaps there is some silver lining? It comes from Kevin Williamson… who happens to be one of the genius minds that brought us SCREAM … and for that I’ll give VAMPIRE DIARIES the benefit of the doubt. Yes, I have that much faith in Williamson. Man I’m crazy. In all honesty though… I haven’t even had the chance to check out TRUE BLOOD… why would I stoop this low?
The franchise centers on a young woman courted by two vampire brothers, one good and one evil. The brothers are at war over her soul as well as the souls of her friends, family members, and town. It stars Ian Somerhalder, Nina Dobrev, Paul Wesley, Katerina Graham, Kayla Ewell (below), and Sara Canning among lots others. It starts running this fall.
