Both myself and my husband love this show! I thought he would not like it, but he also liked Buffy the Vampire Slayer. There is a lot of good writing and deep meaning in both shows if you pay attention and have some literary education and experience. Lot of fun too, and you never know where it is going. Love that type of plotting.

Great show. Both my husband and I love watching this. We have never missed an episode. We even watch the reruns.

i thought this show would not be any good, but i tuned in anyway to see what it was about. bad idea, because then it became the number 1 show i had to watch on thursdays. i hated to miss it. thank goodness for reruns!

I love it. I dont want people to try to compare it to Twilight, because really, nothing will ever compare to Twilight. It is a really good show. I put a series recording on it already! It shows the struggle this vampire(Stefan) has with trying not to hurt people. His estranged brother(Damon) then comes to town, and does start killing people leaving Stefan in danger. It's good.

Good show so far. As I was reading the book I really thought this would make a great show or movie. Can't wait to see what they do for the rest of the season.

I read the first two books of the series before the showed aired and wondered if the show was going to be exactly like the books. I am sooo glad that is not the case! The books (the first 2 at least) were not good at all! The plot line was so predictable and the main character Elana was really unlikable. I think the t.v. show is really good! They did a really good job of changing around the characters and have so far done a great job in making the show really addicting! Of course the brothers (Stefan & Damon) add to the appeal because they are total cuties! I don't think this show is like twilight at all, yes there are some elements that may be similar, but the overall characters and plots are completly different! I do hope however, that VD and Twilight will be the only vampire t.v. series/movies because the whole vampire thing is starting to get redundant!

Actually, Twilight ripped off everyone else. Stephenie Meyer is even being sued by various people for possibly stealing their ideas. Anyway, not a fan of Twilight, as you can see. Loving the Vampire Diaries at home with my daughter. The show is pretty true to the books, from what my daughter tells me. Now that True Blood is on hiatus, I have another show I can sink my teeth into. Just love it!!!

This show has been pretty good so far. I know there's some die-hard true blood fans out there, but true-blood just got to sexually graphic and violent for my taste. I like this because it's kind of a toned down twilight. Given I love twilight so much...no vampire show can take that away, but this is the next best thing to me. I enjoy it!

I REALLY love this show! I too saw some similarities to Twilight, however you have to remember just b/c it's a vampire/human relationship, all of those stories are going to be a bit the same....I have also read the series. I can't wait for new episodes in January!

I wasn't sure at first because I did think Twilight. After a few shows I was hooked. I'll have to read the series and see how the books compare.

i love the show..it reminds me now and then of twilight...but being a vampire show with having a vampire love a human...i guess its going to do that anyways. i didn't get to see it from the very beginning but i caught a show and i loved it...i set it to record and look forward to watching it weekly! i really look forward to reading the books as well

Its not like Twilight. Its way darker. I love the show its edgy. Ian Somerhalder and Paul Wesley are awesome as brothers. Also they are so HOT.

this show is one of my guilty pleasures.

So seductive and mysterious. Nothing like Twilight, thank god. I LOVE it!

i love this show, i never missed an episode, and bought the season on dvd, i cant decide between stephan and damon, and it was written 13 years BEFORE twilight so they can't be called copycats.
