The final batch of Tubey Awards nominations are up, and the Vampire Diaries is in a bunch of new categories. The show is up for Best & Worst New Show (we sincerely hope no one here is voting for it in the Worst category, though – that’s one category we’re just fine with losing), Best Musical Moment (Damon and Elena dancing in Miss Mystic Falls), Best Season Finale, Best Single Episode-Drama (Founder’s Day) and Best Pop Culture Reference (Damon on Twilight in Family Ties). Now all you need to do is head on over to the Television Without Pity website and VOTE. Just not for that Worst New Show category. ;)

Have you been missing the entertaining and insightful Vampire Diaries podcast featuring our very own Vee, along with The Televixen, Blast Magazine’s Connie, Lucia from Heroine TV, and From My Side of the Moon’s Lee? Yeah. Me too. But fear not, because they’re back! The Televixen has posted up their epic season 1 finale podcast, I Guess the B!tch Got the Message (title inspired by a Vampire-Diaries.net forum member). Vee would also like to apologise for her cold in that podcast. She really wasn’t well, and I’m personally impressed she remembers any of it. ;)
It’s not over for season 1 podcasts yet, either. There’s going to be a season 1 retrospective podcast over the summer, and your help is needed! The Televixen would like you to share your favourite moments from season 1, be they episodes, scenes or even fan events. Submissions need to be in by August 15th, and you can find details on where to send them over on The Televixens blog while you listen to the podcast. ;)

We’ve been having fun with this year’s CW Sourcies, since Vampire Diaries TV fandom is all shiny n’ new n’ stuff. Now CW Source has posted the final category in the round and it’s a big one: Best Cliffhanger. And we’d just like to point out that Vampire Diaries actually had several cliffhangers within their cliffhanger, thus making it a perfect storm of cliffhanger…ness. You have until July 21st to get your vote on, and until July 19th to keep Damon well ahead of the pack in the Favorite Bad Boy category.

Summer means lots of end-of-season TV awards and polls, which is great if you like ticky boxes. Thanks to @CW_VampDiaries for reminding us the CW Sourcies are now in full-swing. Two categories have been posted so far, and both feature nominations from The Vampire Diaries: For Best Kiss, That Kiss (you know which one) gets a nod, and Damon and Alaric vs. the tomb vampires in Let the Right One In is up for Best Fight. You can watch videos of each category’s nominations below and then head over to the CW Source to cast your votes. We’ll post additional categories as they’re announced.

You knew it was only a matter of time, right? We love our polls and this one’s big: Narrow down your favorite Vampire Diaries: Season One episodes to your TOP THREE. (I can do four, so I’m sweating a bit.) Which episodes made you yell at your television with joy or frustration? Challenged or solidified your allegiances? Turned your character perspective upside down? Which episodes left you with an emotional hangover the next day and had you dissecting it, minute by minute, scene by scene, in blog post comments or in forums? Which three episodes reel you back in, over and over again?
For the first time, we’re going multiple choice. Check your three favorite episodes and see where your fellow fans land. And if you’re so inclined, let us know how and why you settled on your picks.

So, we’re not quite recovered yet from last night’s epic Vampire Diaries finale, and we have a lot of catching up to do news-wise, but? SO WORTH IT. We’re suffering from total FLAIL hangovers and expect there will be more with each re-watch. And according to TV By the Numbers, 3.5 million Vampire Diaries fans are feeling the same way this morning.
It was “season finale” Thursday on the CW, and Vampire Diaries adults 18-49 rating was up a tenth to a 1.7 rating, again shaming Flashforward. It’s 2.6 rating for the CW target women 18-34 was the same as last week.
UPDATE: CW press release, courtesy of the Futon Critic.
The CW’s VAMPIRE DIARIES and SUPERNATURAL delivered the network’s best Thursday night since March in total viewers (3.14million) and best male 18-49 (1.2/4) since February, according to preliminary national live plus same day Nielsen ratings for Thursday, May 13, 2010.
Last night’s finale was THE VAMPIRE DIARIES’ most-watched episode since February 11 with total viewers (3.48million) and best adult 18-49 (1.7/5) since February 4. VAMPIRE DIARIES won the time period in females 12-34 (2.6/9), female teens 12-17 (2.8/10) and ties for second in women 18-34 (2.6/9) and persons 12-34 (1.9/7). Compared to last week, VAMPIRE DIARIES grew by 5% in total viewers and 6% in adults 18-49.
Dying for a stream/download? Let us hook you up!
Also, some exciting news from the show’s music supervisor, Chris Mollere, on Twitter last night.
We are working on an official Vampire Diaries soundtrack right now. Tentatively it’ll come out in October. I’ll keep ya’ll updated.
Good stuff! What songs do you think are essential on a Vampire Diaries soundtrack?
Speaking of music, you may have noticed that the version of “Bloodstream” by Stateless featured near the end of last night’s episode was dubbed a “TVD Mix.” This was definitely a new mix, unique to the show, and it’s not available for download as of this moment. But maybe we should get to banging some drums, yeah? (For what it’s worth, the original version is just as gorgeous.) Check out the complete Founder’s Day songlist.
