45.) Vampire Diaries


Vampire Diaries on CW (2009-Present)



Genre: Paranormal Romance, Urban Fantasy, Vampire, High School

Honors:  Teen Choice Awards (2010): Choice TV Show–Fantasy/Sci-Fi, Choice TV Actor-Fantasy/Sci-Fi (Paul Wesley), Choice TV Actress–Fantasy/Sci-Fi (Nina Dobrev), Choice TV Villain (Ian Somerhalder), Choice TV Breakout Show, Choice TV Female Breakout Star (Nina Dobrev) and Choice TV Male Breakout Star (Paul Wesley). For more awards and honors please refer to this page Awards and Nominations [Found on Wikipedia].

Review: The show centers around a small fictional town called Mystic Falls. The plot lines revolve mainly around a love triangle between Elena, who is human, and two brothers, Damon and Stefan, who are both 160+ year vampires. The show also has witches, werewolves, and other mystical creatures. A majority of the characters are teenages, or at least look like teenages (as in the case for Stefan and Damon), and attend high school and high school centered events.


Opinion: I watched the first season and half of the second season and I just couldn't stomach anymore, I just kept hoping it would get better. I guess the Twilight and other paranormal romance vampire fans really like this show because it has won many teen choice awards, but it's just not for me. 

Ideas: I would recommend both the book series and the television series to anyone who really likes Vampire romances.
