Unable to make it to this year’s PaleyFest? Then this will be ultra-cool news: The Paley Center for Media has teamed up with Hulu to stream this year’s PaleyFest panels, including The Vampire Diaries. From the press release, via Futon Critic:
The Paley Center for Media today announced Hulu is a partner for PaleyFest 2012. As part of the agreement with PaleyFest, beginning March 15, Hulu will stream full-length content and short form clips exclusively on-demand from nine of the festival’s panels on the free, ad-supported Hulu and the Hulu Plus subscription service at http://www.hulu.com.
So that means less than a week after The Vampire Diaries panel in Beverly Hills on March 10th, you too will be able to experience the fun of PaleyFest, via Hulu, On Demand. How cool is that?

As we mentioned yesterday, Joseph Morgan (in addition to David Anders and Lauren Cohan) will be at MegaCon in Orlando this weekend. In preparation for his appearance, he talked to the Orlando Sentinel about his experiences working on the show and the character of Klaus. On Klaus’s development over time:
“It’s a natural progression,” Morgan says. “He started off as two-dimensional, but thanks to good writing, there have been some strong elements of humanity. He needs to evolve. Otherwise, people will just hate him. Unless he develops more human attributes, people will find him hard to relate to.”
And on his decision to take the role:
“It’s been the best decision I could have made,” Morgan says. “It really has put me in the public eye and given me an amazing fan base that’s been so supportive. I’ve never been a part of American TV. Seventeen episodes [so far] and many to come, I hope.”
We certainly hope so too!

On Thursday, January 12, 2012, Joseph Morgan represented The Vampire Diaries at the 2012 Winter Television Critics Association, where he joined Supernatural‘s Jared Padalecki, Nikita‘s Shane West, Hart of Dixie‘s Wilson Bethel, and Gossip Girl‘s Ed Westwick on the Bad-Ass Boys of the CW panel. We live-RTed many of the critics in attendance and we’re collecting some of the commentary here. (And be jealous of the nifty planners the CW handed our, featuring network characters/quotes.)

Alas, Supernatural snagged both the Favorite Network TV Drama and Favorite Sci-Fi/Fantasy Show, and Favorite TV Drama Actor went to Nathan Fillion. On the other hand, big congratulations are in order for Nina Dobrev, who took home the award for Favorite TV Drama Actress! Since she was also the first write-in nominee ever to make the ballot, that’s a pretty big deal. Way to go, fandom! Congratulations, Nina! Thanks to Nina Dobrev Network for the video clip.
Ian Somerhalder and Paul Wesley (looking fantastic!) presented the award for Favorite Comedy Movie. Hopefully video will surface later. UPDATED: Thanks to Nina Dobrev Network for video!
