Vampire Diaries . . . Any good? Or is it just Dawson Creek with fangs?

[wintera]

I love Vampire stories. And absolutely love True Blood and Being Human at the moment. Is Vampire Diaries worth my time? Cos it looks a bit Dawson's Creek like to me. Any thoughts from fellow Mumsnetters?

JimJam - my DH also watches with me. Whenever he notices me drooling over Damon he just rolls his eyes and says 'but he's dead!!!!' and asking whether I want him to bite me .

Meg what site do you download the American episodes from?

I watch on a Friday too; just finished last night's ep....I use tvduck.com and choose the megavideo links as you don't need to register.

Thanks jimjammum I'll check that out

The first episode is so incredibly bad.

But now I am a mini-addict.

I do secretly love a bit of teen drama though, I watch Gossip Girl too!

I watch Gossip Girl as well
My defence (not that I really need one) is that they are based on teen books and as I work in a library it could be constituted as research.

Unfortunately however, America's Next Top Model is not based on a book so I can't use that excuse all the time.

I watch Gossip Girl too! In my defence, I am a teacher and need to be able to relate to my students
