With all the hooplah surrounding Damon’s (Ian Somerhalder) feelings for Katherine (Nina Dobrev) on “Vampire Diaries”, it’s sometimes easy to forget that he wasn’t the only Salvatore brother to fall prey to her charms.

While Stefan (Paul Wesley) may claim to be madly in love with Elena, once upon a time he only had eyes for her…um, look-alike. So obviously, we couldn’t help but wonder how Katherine’s return would affect him. Our interest was really peaked though when we caught a season two preview clip at Comic-Con, in which Katherine tells Stefan she loves him, only to stab him right after (hey, love hurts right?).

Season 4 of racy British sci-fi series “Torchwood” looks to be more Americanized than originally thought. Following the BBC’s deal to co-produce the 2011 return with U.S. cable network Starz, creator Russell T. Davies is now working with several American TV writers to help script the 10-episode order.

The Chicago Tribune reports that three new writers come from the U.S. and each has an impressive sci-fi pedigree. Doris Egan (“House,” “Tru Calling”), Jane Espenson (“Battlestar Galactica,” “Buffy,” “Caprica”) and John Shiban (“Breaking Bad,” “Supernatural,” “The X-Files”) will all write episodes in the coming season, in addition to Davies and “Torchwood” alum John Fay.
