Today was Vampire Diaries day at New York Comic Con (we think there might have been other stuff going on, but it pales in comparison to the Vampire Diaries, right?), with Kevin Williamson, Julie Plec, Steven R. McQueen, Katerina Graham, Zach Roerig and Sara Canning in attendance. Moderated by the lovely Carina MacKenzie (@cadlymack on Twitter – give her a follow), the panel was – by all accounts – a blast, with all kinds of intriguing spoilers and factoids being revealed (which you can see further down under the spoiler warning). Carina was also able to confirm with Steven that he doesn’t have a Twitter account. Anyone claiming to be him is a fake. Accept no substitutes.
Carina kindly gave permission for us to share a few of her photos from the event:


More media from NYCC
- Teaser footage for episodes 6 & 7.
- Pics by Ariel and JessiVanessi over at I Heart Vampire Diaries.
- Panel videos one and two from Ariel.
We’ll be adding links to videos and more pics when they’re uploaded (unfortunately cell service at the panel was poor, so many people weren’t able to tweet comments and pictures at the time). While we wait for that, get a load of the spoilery goodness revealed during the panel and in the press room.

TV Guide talks to Arielle Kebbel, who’s playing Lexi in 162 Candles, this week’s episode of The Vampire Diaries. She provides insight into Lexi and Stefan’s shared past, Lexi’s personality, and her effect on Stefan, Elena, and Damon:
TVGuide.com: Because Lexi is such a strong vampire, does Damon fear her?
Kebbel: Yeah, he fears her and it pisses him off. She knows it and loves it. She’s not scared of him at all and she likes to call him on his B.S. and meet him at his game. She likes to remind him that however evil he thinks he is, I’m still stronger and older and more powerful. I choose not to use my power the way he does because I choose to rise above it, but if push comes to shove, I will use it against him.

Thanks to Fan Forum: Ian Somerhalder for the heads up on this super-brief video of Ian and Paul Wesley on the SCREAM Awards red (well, checkered) carpet:
Thanks to @LilMissX we’ve got our first look at Lexi, as played by Arielle Kebbel, who will be appearing in the eighth episode of The Vampire Diaries, 162 Candles. We’re not sure that Matt will be entirely pleased to find out his pool table has been hijacked…

Finally, apologies for the downtime earlier. Our hosts implemented some fixes to help reduce server load, only accidentally missed a few files they were supposed to unlock again when they were done. This resulted in ’403 Forbidden’ errors making an unwelcome appearance across the site. As soon as the fault was reported, they got it fixed quickly (they’re awesome like that), and everything should be working smoothly again. Please let us know if you encounter any problems.

At last, some Vampire Diaries casting news for you all. TV Guide Magazine have reported that ex-Gilmore Girls star Arielle Kebbel will be playing the upcoming role of “Lexi”, an old friend of Stefan’s. You can find a little bit more detail about this role in the spoiler zone. TV Guide have listed Lexi’s appearance as being in episode seven, but last we knew the casting call for her character came with the production code of 107, which would make episode eight the one she appears in.
Now, if we could just find out who’ll be playing Alaric, we’ll be a pair of happy bunnies…
Paul Wesley has spoken to MTV regarding the comparisons between Stefan and Twilight’s Edward Cullen, suggesting that the comparisons are ‘inevitable’. You can listen to a clip of Paul talking about it as well as read a summary of it on the MTV website.
