The Vampire Diaries

I'm tired, and can't sleep, so I'm watching The Vampire Diaries. It's so lame, I actually said "OMG" out loud. NOW they are playing Katy Perry's "Thinking of You" which I solely associate with Twilight (see the Hillywood Group's Twilight mock videos). YES! Now they're playing MGMT! This show is totally redeeming itself without me even following the script right now. Anyway, the part that made me say "OMG" out loud was when the vampire returned the main character's journal and said he hadn't read it because he wouldn't want anyone to read his, and the girl responds "You keep a journal too?" So shocking, people write down their thoughts, so do vampires! After all, they were people once. Wow, this show at least has good music. I don't know this song, but I like it.
What? The vampire's name is Stephan Salvator. Sounds like my relatives.
I love in shows and movies when teenagers party in the woods with beers around bonfires, laughing candidly. And ah, subplots of drug-dealing brothers who want to hook up with super hot chicks.
Same leafy, mossy, broken-tree-ridden landscape as Twilight. This is beyond a rip-off, and a bad one at that.There's event the ditsy friend who's head over heels for the vampire but has absolutely no chance. He even says "You and me, it's never gonna happen"
YES! And now time for the pretty vampire. Damon. Other vampire's brother. Honestly, who named these characters? Stephan, Damon, Elana. Oh, and Matt and Bonnie.
"It's all fun and games, but wherever you go, people die."
"I promised you an eternity of misery. I'm just keeping my word."
Oh, they have rings that let them be out in daylight! That's actually kind of creative.
So now the cops are at the teeny party to pick up the bitten girl and the younger bro is still drinking beer. WHAT?!
Carol Ann! There's a Carol Ann! "Don't go towards the light Carol Ann!"
So now we're moving on to the second episode.
"Completely and undeniably" Sound familiar? Wow, like the put the Twilight story in a mixer and threw it back together.
Well that's my summary for now. Sleep meds are finally kicking in.
