The cast of the CW hit ‘The Vampire Diaries’ spoke with Nylon magazine and discussed the why the shows a hit and how Twilight has helped!!

Those well acquainted with Serena and Little J may find this fact hard to believe:  Vampire Diaries, The CW’s budding show about bloodsuckers and the teen girls who love and / or get eaten by them, has double the number of Gossip Girl viewers.

What makes it such a hit?  It could be the current cultural zeitgeist of Edward, Bella, Sookie, Bill, and immortal drama.  It could be the lingering teen appeal of star Nina Dobrev (remember her from Degrassi?).  Or maybe it’s just damn fun and funny.

Luke Crisell – who calls the show “like Dawson’s Creek with less talk and more action” – sat down with the cast of and asked them himself.

On the similarities between Twilight, True Blood, and Vampire Diaries: “When the show first started… you automatically thought Twilight.  But once you continue, there’s a whole other side of it that goes a lot deeper… It’s about letting everyone know that we’re different but we all respect each other.” –Nina Dobrev

On the sudden success of the show: ““Do I thing the show would be successful as it is, if it weren’t for all that? No.” –Paul Wesley

Hey Ian, is there any similarity between LOST and Vampire Diaries? “[My character] is gonna be the coolest character on television. There was no doubt about it. It reminded me of Sawyer, Josh Holloway’s character on LOST. He was always the character I secretly wished I could play.”

Check out this List of the 20 Hottest Male Vampires!! Both Kellan Lutz (Emmett) & Rob Pattenson (Edward) from Twilight and… Paul Wesley (Stefan) and Ian Somerhalder (Damon) from Vampire Diaries made the list

Paul Wesley as Stefan in The Vampire Diaries

So the show is still very new, but it’s only a matter of time before The Twilight crowd embraces Vampire Diaries (and despite all claims that Kevin Williamson’s show is a rip-off, The Vampire Diaries’ novels were around long before Twilight hit shelves). It strikes all the right notes: good looking bloodsuckers, forbidden romances, a high school setting, and pop music. And it’s a little less wordy than Dawson’s Creek, which is always a plus. I’ve seen the first episode and while Stefan may sort of resemble a vampire boy scout at present, he has a lot of potential. Paul Wesley is naturally gorgeous and has the tall, dark, and handsome thing down pat. Costume designers make him even more tantalizing in his designer jeans and tight fitting t-shirts, and while I wish he was a little bit less generic high school kid and more dark and mysterious, I’m not really complaining. He’ll work perfectly for the target audience.

But here is the real test: to be quite honest, I thought the first episode was subpar. Despite this, I still might tune in if only to see the lovely Stefan spend twenty-two episodes stalking Elena.

16. Kellan Lutz as Emmett Cullen from Twilight

Some of you might say that I should have put Emmet higher on the list, but frankly, his character (thus far) bores me just a little. I mean, dude, it’s okay to tell a joke once in awhile. It’s not going to kill you because, well, for one, you’re already dead. And you can’t die twice. Unless your name is Buffy Summers. But I digress. Apparently he gets much better in the rest of the series, but since I’m basing this solely on the first film, all you Twilight fans are just going to have to prove me wrong after New Moon comes out. Despite my personal feelings towards his character, even I can admit there’s something to be said for golden eyes and dark features. And while he may not be the most talkative of the Cullens (yet), what he lacks in verbal capabilities, he makes up for in muscle and penetrating eyes. Plus, I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t just a little bit jealous of his devotion to Rosalie. In the end, I think Emmett was just what the first Twilight film needed. While he may not be quite as passionate as Edward, his huge bulk and slightly intimidating nature added a splash of much appreciated darkness to the entire Cullen family.

12. Ian Somerhalder as Damon Salvatore in The Vampire Diaires

Ahh, Ian Somerhalder. You were hot in Young Americans when you dated that girl who looked like a guy. You were even hotter in Rules of Attraction when you were in love with Dawson Leary (or somebody bearing his face) , and you were perfect in Lost (except for your annoying sister, Shannon). Now you have snagged the role of the cooler, more attractive, probably more interesting, evil, undead brother of the title character in Vampire Diaries . Good job. If I know my vampire shows – and I think I do – you’ll probably get the girl in the end after the masses realize the good girl dating the good vampire is a bit tired (hey, don’t doubt me. It’s happened on Buffy and it is well on its way in True Blood ). Point being, if I were an insecure, high school girl, I would totally allow you to suck my blood. In fact, I’d probably allow you to suck my blood if I were a (semi)-mature, twenty-something-year-old who had – thank god – graduated high school. Which I am. Point being, I’ve only seen one episode of this show and I’m already rooting for the bad guy. Is it because of his gorgeous eyes? Sexy outfits? Perfect, chiseled features? Take your pick. Or better yet, embrace them all.

2. Robert Pattinson as Edward Cullen in Twilight

Oh, Edward Cullen. Your penchant for stalking teenage girls and attending high school for all of eternity aside (dude, why ?), you are one good looking bloodsucker. Sure, the stirrings of your hotness were there when you played Cedric Diggory back at Hogwarts (R.I.P. friend), but I don’t think any of us really appreciated the true beauty that is you until you stepped into the Forks cafeteria in Twilight. What I like about Robert Pattinson’s appearance for this role (besides the obvious ‘please-take-me-now’ facet) is that he actually looks like a vampire. Unlike other high school vampire shows (I’m thinking of you, Vampire Diaries ), there is something simply too pretty about Edward Cullen. I mean, there is just no way somebody who looks like him is human. He has to be something more. Perhaps it’s the golden, color-changing eyes, or the perfectly placed hair, or maybe the very pale skin and impossibly red lips, but it only takes one look to know that this guy is not a guy at all. He can’t be. To conclude, I guess it’s not at all surprising that Bella falls in love with him in about 2.5 seconds (give or take). I mean, wouldn’t you?

In the DUH category, EW.com is reporting that The CW has picked up ‘The Vampire Diaries’ for a full season with a total of 22 episodes!!

‘The Vampire Diaries’ had the biggest premiere in the networks history, and the show continues to stay strong in the ratings!!

I’ve got 3 sneak peeks at tonight’s ‘Lost Girls’ episode of Vampire Diaries!!

#1

#2

#3

thx to @VampDiariesCW

We are 3 episodes in, and I swear Vamp Diaries just gets better each week!!

**Beware Spoilers Below, Read at your own risk**

I have to say I was a little shocked that they still decided to kill off Mr. Tanner but I have to say what was with Damon’s teeth when he went all vamp, it looked like he was missing a front tooth.

Anyhoo, Stefan joined the football team, and how great was the it when he put Tyler in his place.  Elena ditched cheerleading (thank god), and we got a good ole dose of High School Prep rally!!

I’m really loving Damon trying to hide his humanity (those who’ve read the books know its not really gone), and that end scene with Damon in Elena’s room made me go “AWWW”.

I’m a little disappointed that the make-out scene was a dream, I mean come on and we only got a tiny glimpse of Paul Wisely (Stefan) shirtless, but oh well!!

Overall, another good episode and next weeks looks interesting!!

What did you think?  Still Hooked?

I’ve got a treat for all you Vampire Diaries Fans!!

Check out Stefan & Elena’s super HOT makeout session from tonight’s episode ‘Friday Night Bites’

What I would kill to be that teddy bear

Vampire Diaries author L.J Smith spoke with MTV about Twilight and the whole vampire craze in a recent interview.

She also gave us a little taste of what to expect from her next Vamp Diaries Book ‘The Return: Shadow Souls’ due out in Feb 2010

” ‘Shadow Souls,’ pushes probably every border that you can,” she explained. “It’s a gentler, kinder Damon. It’s a more fluffy-bunny Damon, which people like. He’s definitely got the half-tamed-panther fierceness there, but he also does some nice things. It’s always good to see a bad boy who at the last minute does something nice.”
