The Vampire Diaries TV SeriesThanks to Connie for the heads up and Futon Critic for the press release: The CW and CBS have launched two new iPhone and iTouch apps, one of which will allow users to directly purchase and download full-length episodes of The Vampire Diaries and other CW shows.

The “CWTV” application gives CW fans direct access to video clips of all CW programming, including previews, recaps, interviews with the cast, and behind-the-scenes footage of popular CW shows. Fans can also link out to iTunes to purchase full length episodes of Gossip Girl, 90210, Melrose Place, The Vampire Diaries, One Tree Hill, America’s Next Top Model, Supernatural, and Smallville.

You can read the full release over on Futon Critic, including a list of the app’s features. The app is FREE and you can download it straight from the iTunes store (only available to users in the U.S.)

Kayla Ewell has a brief interview in Soap Opera Digest about her time on The Bold & The Beautiful and her current gig on The Vampire Diaries:

“Kevin Williamson (DAWSON’S CREEK, Scream) is such a brilliant writer; a lot happens in each episode,” shares Ewell. “People die, there will be new vampires, relationships start to form, others begin to fall apart. There will be so many scary moments and so many heartfelt moments every week. The writers have done a great job balancing the two.”

For those of you nostalgic about the ’90s Vampire Diaries computer game, industry website Playthings.com reports that Pressman Toy is developing a board game based on the Vampire Diaries TV series (2010 release).

Big thanks to Taylor for giving us the heads up on this:

Last night I was in Hot Topic and they have Vampire Diaries shirts! They say “Vampire Diaries” on the front and “Love Sucks” on the back! However I checked the Hot Topic site and they aren’t up yet.

And we have photos, courtesy of the lovely Taylor (click to see bigger versions in the Media Gallery):

We’ll keep an eye on the Hot Topic website to see when they’re available to order. In the meantime, hit up your local shop – and if they don’t have the shirt, ask for it!

Damon, Elena and StefanThe extended Vampire Diaries trailer is now available for free download on iTunes as a ‘sneak peak’. We’ve seen it before, but it’s kind of nice to have the shiny downloaded onto your desktop for repeat viewings until the series premieres. Small note: you will need iTunes installed in order to access it.

In international air date news, fans in Brazil will be pleased to know that it seems you guys have an air date set for November, 2009 on the Warner Channel. And on the subject of air dates, we’ve added a list of known air dates to the main TV series page. If you know of any dates we’re missing, please let us know!

Those of you heading off to Dragon*Con might be interested to know that if you donate blood, you may well receive a Vampire Diaries gift in return. The first 500 people to donate will be getting a special Vampire Diaries bleeding mug. You can find more details about the blood drive and the times and locations on Dragon*Con’s blood drive page.

Finally, Innsmouth Free Press (a website dedicated to the Lovecraft mythos) will be reviewing the Vampire Diaries TV series on a weekly basis. To get readers geared up for this they’re having a Vampire Diaries week from the 11th to the 18th September (there’s a Supernatural week from the 3rd to the 10th for those interested). They’ll be posting all kinds of reviews and interviews (including one with myself and Vee!), so be sure to check it out.
