The Vampire Diaries TV SeriesTV Guide Magazine‘s William Keck has a tidbit – and it’s a good one! [Please insert "Hot for Teacher" jokes here.]

The CW’s new fall series, The Vampire Diaries, is casting a new series regular to debut in episode six. The character, Alaric Saltzman, is a fan favorite from the series of books upon which the series is based. He is a young twenty-something history teacher whom executive producer Kevin Williamson described to me as “hot.” The series will also be casting several local residents in Virginia [Ed note: obviously he means Georgia], where the show shoots, to play several townspeople, including students’ parents, the town sheriff and a pastor. Applicants must not have an aversion to sharp pointy teeth.

Sheriff Mossberg? Reverend Bethea? The infamous Mr. Smallwood Lockwood?

    So Meredith won’t be coming along with him?

    Still waiting for any news on Meredith, alas. Fingers crossed we hear something soon.

    Was too tired for commentary last night but I am SO excited about this for a few reasons:

    1. I lovelovelove what this does to Stefan and Damon, both being suspicious and disdainful of Alaric pretty much from the get-go.

    2. This gives us another touch point in the show’s time line. And they weren’t kidding about clipping along. Alaric shows up in Chapter 5 of The Struggle, after all.

    3. I can’t think about Alaric without thinking about Meredith. Honestly, I’m about to explode from the curiosity. And anticipation. In equal parts.

    Oh goodness. You know I love me some Mr. Saltzman. If Alaric is a character, then it seems pretty much definite that Meredith will join the show at some point. I mean, seriously. Can’t wait to see who is cast!

    Hmmm, I’m not very good at doing the spoiler thing, am I? Well, I’m not the most computer savvy person in the world. Sorry about that. Is there an edit option?

    I took care of it. :)

    Wow. They are speeding up Mr. Tanner’s death. Whoot <3 I wonder who the hot stud playing him is. :D

    Hehehe, Thank you! :)
