VAMPIRE DIARIES NEWS FOR 12/14 MARATHON STARTS TONIGHT

Don’t forget the Vampire Diaries marathon starts tonight. It’s your catch to catch up or just see each episode again.

Reasons The Vampire Diaries Will Suck You In

Based on the 1991 book series by L.J. Smith, the show centers on feuding vampire brothers Stefan and Damon Salvatore as they vie for the love of mortal beauty Elena Gilbert. Developed for the small screen by Dawson’s Creek and Scream scribe Kevin Williamson, the drama has proved to be one of fall’s breakout hits, making this week’s marathon the perfect time to get caught up before the show’s January return.

Unsure about taking on another supernatural saga? Here are three reasons to sink your teeth into The Vampire Diaries:

1. Supernatural Sex Appeal: There’s a new crop of vampires in town, and these boys will leave you thirsting for more! With Paul Wesley playing repentant vamp Stefan and Ian Somerhalder portraying his bad boy brother Damon, it’s no wonder Elena (Nina Dobrev) can’t make up her mind. The actors, who were recently named to PEOPLE’s Sexiest Men Alive list, are not shy about showing off their assets onscreen either, so look for the brothers Salvatore to lose their shirts as much as possible. As the show reached its fall finale, Legally Blonde hunk Matthew Davis also joined the cast as high school teacher Alaric Saltzman, and Fighting star Sean Faris is reportedly set to appear in future episodes, proving life in the town of Mystic Falls is about to get hotter.

2. More Bite than Twilight: Though Stefan, like the Cullens, chooses not to drink human blood, he is not above getting his fangs dirty, especially when dealing with Damon, an unrepentant killer with no regard for human life. The brothers’ bloody battles have already led to a sizable body count, and with the townspeople beginning to fight back, the threat of danger is continuing to grow. Equally as intense are the show’s love scenes.

I agree with all 3 reasons for loving Vampire Diaries. It’s my new crack, I need a fix. I’m glad to know another 12 episodes will be out next year. About the time it ends, I can meander on over to True Blood Season 3.
