Jim Halterman's top 10 reasons why The Vampire Diaries is the must-see of the new fall season!

I'm just going to post one thing in particular I LOVED. I'm so excited for The Tyler and Jeremy bromance that is hopefully going to happen and I can't wait for The Vampire Diaries season 2 premiere tonight.

"6. PRETTY RULES BUT…the actors on TVD can all act. Having met most of the cast at Comic Con (Ian!!! You’ve eluded me thus far!) they are just as beautiful in person, nicer than their dark characters but they’re also truly professionals. It shows at press events and it shows on the screen. And, another kudos for casting, Taylor Kinney looks great but also effortlessly becomes part of the fold. And most of last season I hoped Michael Trevino and Steven R. McQueen would get more airtime and it appears my wish has been granted." You can read the rest of this awesome article over at Jim Haltermen

Ian Somerhalder talks Bromance, Bonnie, Vampire Powers and more with TV Squad

In this article Ian Somerhalder talks about what's to come in Season 2 and other exciting things such as his amazing on screen and off screen bromance with Matt Davis.

"How will Damon be handling Bonnie's big threat?
Bonnie (Katerina Graham) can hold her own, unfortunately, with Damon. Anyone who can put Damon down on the ground -- and not in a sexual way -- is a problem. [Laughs] She's a big problem for him. She's a contender ... I think if anything, she's gonna prove to be useful. Katherine is going to be a major, major, major problem. Katherine is a bigger problem than Damon was in Season 1, because she's three times more sadistic and seductive. I think what she wants is far greater than love, which is even scarier.

I think Matt Davis might be clinically insane, tweeting under a pen name, but fans are loving the back and forth you guys have on Twitter.
What is so amazing is, if in fact he is clinically insane, it is such a beautiful thing. I love that man. We totally have a bromance. Damon and Alaric and Elena spend a little bit of time together this season, and I think I can speak for Matt Davis and Nina Dobrev and myself when I say that we love being together on set. The three of us have a blast when we're shooting stuff." You can read the rest of the article over at TV Squad

Fancast list reasons why to watch the Season 2 Premiere of The Vampire Diaries Tonight

I posted a few tidbits from the article and I hope everyone will go over to Fancast to see the rest of the article as well as the reasons to watch the premiere tonight.

"The Season Opener Won’t Skip A (Heart) Beat. Is Jeremy dead? Or did Anna’s blood turn him into a vamp? Will Elena meet Katherine? Will Stefan find out about Damon and Katherine’s kiss? Williamson promises you won’t have to wait long for answers. “We pick up right where we left off. The whole episode literally, we rewind 30 seconds and take off.” As for the fate of wounded Caroline, Williamson vaguely explains, “Maybe’s she’s dead, maybe she isn’t. But it will all be answered in that first episode.”

Katherine Returns…And Damon Squirms. Will Katherine’s arrival in Mystic Falls bode well for the one Salvatore brother who’s been pining for her for over a century? Maybe. “The nice thing about Katherine is that she can play Damon at his own game, but she can up it. She can complicate it and she can double it times 20. She’s older, she’s wiser, and in our mythology, the older vampire is the stronger vampire,” he says." Read the rest of the article at Fancast"

Starry Magazine interviews Sarah Canning

Starry Magazine interviews Sarah Canning on her involvement in Season 2 and how Jenna is dealing.

"Q) What is new this season on "The Vampire Diaries" and with your character Jenna Sommers?

A) I think one of the biggest things that the viewers are looking forward to is the return of Katherine. You have seen the tense moment at the end of season one and that will definitely be addressed in the first episode. I think that's really going to effect every character. We've seen Jenna let Katherine (Nina Dobrev) into the house so she's sort of been a catalyst for everything that is about to go down. I think that is going to play a big part for Jenna, how she is going to deal with Katherine being around and her not knowing who she is. Matt Davis and I were also working together at the later part of the first season and we've seen a lot of stop and start with a relationship developing between them. They got stuck, but there is so much chemistry between them. There are so many other factors that aren't letting things be easy for them. We get to see things grow between them, maybe in a positive way, but I don't think it will ever be easy for them. The fact that Alaric, unbeknownst to Jenna, has an alliance with a group of vampires that her niece is involved with...That alone puts a stress on the relationship since there are a lot of secrets."

Buzz Sugar interviews Katerina Graham

Buzz: Are we going to see Bonnie kicking ass this season? KG: Oh, yeah, from the jump she's kicking ass. She's going to try — although she might not succeed sometimes, she's going to be trying to kick ass. She's going to be doing her thing.

Buzz: How will the addition of werewolves affect the show?

KG: It completely affects the show, it alters everything that you might have thought the show was gong to be. Werewolves are going to play such an important part this season. I know that notoriously vampires and werewolves don't get along, so that creates a whole other conflict for everyone to deal with, and then Katherine's back, that's a whole other thing. It's so interesting to see how they're all playing with each other. And I don't think any of them are going to play nice.

Buzz: Will Bonnie be discovering more of her powers?
KG: Absolutely. She also discovers things she can do easily and certain things she's learning and still developing. Over time we'll discover more of her abilities, which is always fun for the fans to see.

Aww it's nice to see that Katerina states there is a love interest, but she didn't name who. I'm hoping it's Tyler hehe. You can read the rest of the interview over at Buzz Sugar.

Buddy TV narrows down a list of who dies in the premiere of The Vampire Diaries.

I wouldn't say this article spoils anything about who dies in the premiere because he gives a big list of the characters. In my opinion I believe it's Uncle John who dies. I really just can't see Jeremy turning because it would be too much and where would they get the jewelery to make Jeremy walk in the sun. It would be too much heart break to have Jeremy die as well. HOWEVER, this opinion could be quite void because different media outlets have stated Damon does something terrifying and evil at the end of the episode that destroys his relationship with Elena and will leave the fans in shock. You can see the list over at Buddy TV.

"SPOILER WARNING: This article contains spoilers about The Vampire Diaries.

Ready?

In the season 2 premiere, at least one major character dies. That's all you're getting, and it should leave you with plenty of questions.

Is it more than one person? Is the death permanent? Does the death or deaths have anything to do with the cliffhangers from last season, or was that just misdirection?

Season 1 left several characters in peril. Jeremy took an overdose of pills trying to kill himself to turn into a vampire. Caroline was seriously injured in a car accident. Jonathan was stabbed by Katherine. However, this is The Vampire Diaries, so none of those circumstances necessarily lead to death."
