Hollywood Crush talked to Ian Somerhalder at PaleyFest and he told them about how new character Sage affected Damon and about the use of flashbacks in general:

“I think the invaluable thing about these flashbacks is that you inevitably find out what made these characters who they are now. What was the anatomy of the events that lead them up to now?”

Watch the video to find out how Sage helped make Damon who he is today:

PaleyFest Honors The Vampire Diaries: Panel, Press & Photo/Video Round-Up

If you missed the live stream of the Vampire Diaries panel at PaleyFest on Saturday night, don’t worry! We’ve got you covered with all kinds of press interviews and panel recaps, along with plenty of great photos. Remember, the panel itself will be available on HuluPlus starting on March 15th. Take note that HuluPlus is not the same as regular Hulu, it’s a subscription similar to Netflix. It does offer a free trial period, though, so you can check out the panel at no cost if you don’t mind jumping through a few hoops.

SPOILERS ARE EVERYWHERE. Warning, UK fans: There were a lot of allusions to things that have happened up through All My Children (EP315). If you don’t want any spoilers at all, you may want to step away from the computer until 1912 (EP316) airs on Thursday night. The PaleyFest audience was treated to an advanced screening of this Thursday’s new episode, so pretty much every link in our round up below has some kind of spoiler, so read at your own risk!

XXDon’t forget, the PaleyFest Vampire Diaries panel will be streaming live TONIGHT at 11:05 p.m. Eastern! You can use this livestream page to watch the panel as it unfolds. The panel guests will be Julie Plec, Nina Dobrev, Paul Wesley, Ian Somerhalder, Candice Accola, Matt Davis, and Kat Graham. TV Guide Magazine Editor-in-Chief Debra Birnbaum will be moderating the panel.

UPDATE According to the Paley Center Twitter, the panel is actually starting at 11:05pm EST. We think there may be an episode screening in advance of the panel, which accounts for the conflicting times. Sorry about any confusion! If you’re looking for twitter coverage, our friends at @IHeartTVD will be tweeting live from the event.

UPDATE 2: If you missed the live panel, it will be available on HuluPlus on March 15th.

XX Right about now, a lot of Vampire Diaries fans are wishing for a spell that would get us out of this hiatus, but Abby Bennett isn’t talking. Persia White, on the other hand, recently did an interview with Collider.com and has lots to say about vampires, witches, and her career. She also admits that she’d like to get into some more scenes with the vampires on the show, and that’s something we can completely understand!
 

With so many characters on this show, is there anyone that you’d love to have more scenes or a storyline with?

WHITE: Yeah, there’s a couple. Some of the Originals are just wonderful actors, like Daniel [Gillies] and Joseph [Morgan]. I love Ian [Somerhalder] and Paul [Wesley]. I would love to do more with the vampires. That would be my favorite. I would be intrigued to be dealing with the problems that Damon and Stefan deal with.

READ THE ENTIRE INTERVIEW AT COLLIDER.COM.

Speaking of Bennett witches, a little bird told us that Kat Graham will be joining the PaleyFest Vampire Diaries panel. The panel will be streaming live on March 10th, you can find all the details right here.

Yahoo!TV’s has posted yet another exclusive clip from The Vampire Diaries: The Complete First Season DVD and this time the cast and producers discuss what sets the show apart as a television drama. Love this quote from Julie:

We always said in the pilot it’s a girl who feels dead inside and a boy who is dead inside and how they bring each other back to life.

BIG thanks to Denise for the heads up!

And thanks to @ara_celi for the heads up on this: Target will be selling an exclusive version of the Vampire Diaries DVD which includes footage from the Vampire Diaries panel at PaleyFest. This version of the set will only be available at Target.
