    "I just don't want to be sensitive Damon anymore. I just want to get back to biting high school girls and stuff." -- LOL!, that's gas....i prefer sarky/bitey Damon as well....but loved seeing Stefan as Damon (lite).

    Ex-Trauma EMT Taylor Kinney is joining the cast of Vampire Diaries in the recurring role of Mason Lockwood, younger brother of late Mayor Lockwood, sources confirm.
    Described as Tyler’s (Michael Trevino) “cool” uncle, Mason is sexy and athletic (duh) and possesses an easygoing charm. Though he has more control than his nephew, he can “flip in an instant” if crossed.
    Kinney will make his first appearance in Diaries’ second-season premiere on Sept. 9.

    He is hot

    Courtney Ford — a.k.a. Trinity’s daughter on Dexter — has landed the potentially recurring role of Vanessa, a grad student at Duke who helps Damon, Alaric, and Elena go through Isobel’s old research.
    At Comic-Con last month, exec producer Kevin Williamson hinted that the character may be harboring a secret or two. “She’s not without her own intrigue,” he told me. “It’ll be a nice little part for someone. And it’s a part that could evolve into this massive story line or we could gut her like a fish.”

    Simon Miller has reportedly joined the cast of The Vampire Diaries.

    Zap2It says that the actor will play George Lockwood, the patriarch of the family.

    He is expected to make his debut in the fourth episode of the show's new season in a flashback scene.

    Filming is reportedly underway on the episode, which will introduce the Lockwood ancestors for the first time.

    Rumours have also suggested that George will be forced to work with Katherine (Nina Dobrev) despite the rivalry between werewolves and vampires.

    Miller has previously had guest roles in CSI: Miami and Gossip Girl.

    This looks like it could get better just saw a few minutes of season one on TG4. I have it set to series record but haven't got around to watching much more of it.

    The whole teen thing is a bit off putting (especially when they are all in their 20s) and Vampires walking around during the day.

    ^ trust me, don't play into the whole Twilight/teen thing....it's much much better then what people think. It's got tons of drama and twists....and it can be quite brutal at times.
    All i say to people is....don't assume, give it a chance!


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 21,634 ✭✭✭✭Richard Dower


    HAHA!...Damon kicked that Twilight twats butt!...

    Ian and TVD won!

    Oh definitely give it a chance. I fully understand the doubt that people have about it, I had it myself. I only started watching it in March when I came across a clip on youtube while looking for something else. The first few episodes are the weakest of the whole first season. I saw the episode that was on last night on tg4 and next week is where it really starts to take off.
    I watched the first 15 episodes back to back, the way they all end on a cliffhanger, I just couldn't stop watching, and then when I got caught up to US pace it was a killer having to wait a week between each episode.
    What bits and pieces I've seen for season 2, well it looks amazing. I can't wait for next week. It's probably the only show I'm proper excited about coming back on this Autumn.
    Oh and that spoiler up there about another lockwood who's forced to work with Katherine in episode 4, is good news, because I was worried that they'd only bring her in for like 2 episodes and then kill her off!! So hopefully she'll be around for most of the season :D


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 21,634 ✭✭✭✭Richard Dower


    I think if Nina plays Katherine quite well the character should stick around, i'm also looking forward to season 2!, i hope they got a budget increase as well, add a bit more zest!

    I did read a thing from some guy who works for one of these tv blogs or whatever, and he's seen the first episode, and says she does an excellent job of portraying both characters, and also does a very good job of being Katherine, pretending to be Elena, and it's confusing as hell for the viewer, but in a good way :D
    Also, that promo video up there is basically advertising it as "the year of the Kat" which would be very bad advertising if she was only going to be in a few episodes, so fingers crossed.

    I don't know if they need more "zest" as you put it? They could maybe do with turning on an extra light here and there :D Very darkly lit show :P I can't really think of anything that's missing that would be improved with a bigger budget?


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 21,634 ✭✭✭✭Richard Dower


    That'll be the fun part!...Katherine pretending to be Elena....cause havoc!, if Nina can pull it off you could have some major twists and drama!
    She had me fooled in the season 1 finale, until fingers got chopped i didn't cop it was Katherine!

    By zest i mean a bit more action, like wire work and fights, add a bit of CGI, bit more "vampy"....but not too much :-)

    Ah yes, some more fisty cuffs would be fun. I hear Bonnie will be on a mission this year, so there could be some good fights there.

    I kind of had a feeling it was Katherine from the minute she was walking up to the house at the end. Just the way she looked and talked seemed different from Elena, but at the same time, the way they wrote it and the way it played out, I was kind of confused by the time the kiss happened. It was very well done by all involved. Very clever.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 21,634 ✭✭✭✭Richard Dower


    When she kissed Damon i kinda thought...hmmm, but then they did kinda build up the potential Elena/Damon snogfest, but...Damon gave this kinda look and touched his mouth after Elena kissed him, he was a bit suspicious in retrospect.

    Those last 7 episodes were fab!, i loved seeing Stefan go bad!, lusting for blood...he was well creepy with it too!
    LOL!...i'm ranting like a 13-year-old girl again :-)

    It was funny though because the scene right before the porch scene was Elena telling Stefan how much she loved him and only him. So I'm thinking, right, she clearly has no interest in Damon. Then Damon says his little speech on the porch and now I'm thinking it's not impossible that this could be Elena kissing him :D She did kind of snarl half way through the kiss though, so that was it then, I knew.

    I'm not sure if he knows it was Katherine though. He did kind of look confused right after, but that might just have been shock at the thought that Elena kissed him? Or maybe he does know, I'm kind of leaning towards him knowing.

    Bad Stefan was great to see. The episode with the pagent thing, where he took the blonde girl into the woods and he shouted at her "I'm not sad, I'M FREAKIN' HUNGRY!!!!" was hilarious!! I don't know if it was meant to be funny, but I couldn't stop laughing at it:D

    I know what you mean about the "13 year old girl" thing. I do sometimes think I'm way too old for anything they show on The CW, but in fairness to this show, it's very will written and acted, so I don't feel so bad about loving it ;)

    See that's what bugs me about this forum!, why i say we have tv snobs...because "it's The CW" TVD gets tainted as another Twilight....when it's not!, i mean, lost of Boardsies like Supernatural and that's on The CW. I'm not deluded to think The CW produces must see/quality tv, but a show like TVD deserves to at least be given a chance and not dismissed out of hand.

    hopefully S2 will be a good as the first season, they better not screw it up!

    As for Damon, i think the kiss reminded him of Katherine, but he wasn't sure...i'm glad Alaric is staying, he's a very good character, I'd like to see a female sexy vamp biting her way through men, or a succubus.
