The Vampire Diaries TV SeriesThanks to the folks over at SpoilerTV and the CW, you can now view an extended trailer (five whole minutes worth) of the Vampire Diaries TV series that was shown at the CW upfront. It contains a lot of footage that hasn’t been seen in the previous trailers, and Vee and I will no doubt give you some more in-depth observations about the footage later on.

We would like to say that we’re impressed with what we’ve seen here, especially with regards to Paul Wesley. Speaking as hardcore book fans, he may not be who we would have picked as Stefan, but his performance is something that leads us to believe that the guy can pull it off. Hopefully after seeing this, others of you might be willing to give him a chance, too.

    OMG i loved it, cant wait till fall! ( or mayb more because in Latin America is always delayed)
    so from what i saw guess Stefan is not playing hard to get for too long heh.

  • clairavance

    Is the blonde supposed to be Caroline?
    Thanks for posting it up – I’m actually looking forward to watching it now.

  • http://kharasthoughtsandrants.blogspot.com/ Heather Bryant

    Yeah the blond is Caroline :) I think that’s why they didn’t have a blond Elena. Most tv shows/movies like things to be different with main characters. Even hair color needs to be different.

    In twilight Jacob’s hair wasn’t pulled back because of James’ hair was pulled back. They wanted to make things different instead of having two characters with the same hairstyle.

    School office scene = the absolute weirdest sense of deja vu. In the best possible way.

    Also, this take of the Stefan/Damon throwdown is a lot less hammy and more intense. Much, much better than the previously released version.

  • chalcedony

    Does anyone know the actual air date for the pilot?

  • http://www.vampire-diaries.net/ Red

    No actual air date yet, but the middle to end of September is a good guestimate.

  • AR

    Did anyone else notice that Stefan said he was born in Mystic falls…is that just his original story to the others or are they really changing that for the show too..no more italian???

  • http://www.vampire-diaries.net/ Red

    The original buzz around the show was that they were originally from Mystic Falls around the civil war era. Looks like they’re sticking with that.

  • AR

    ohh..i didnt hear about that….ugh, im sorry, but that kinda stinks lol…i’ll still watch and support the show, and everything, but still lol

  • AR

    Red, these books mean a lot to me, and have foe many years since they came out..maybe this sounds stupid, but id love to be able to talk to and get to now someone else that knows/cares about this..if you would want, maybe we can talk one on one and get to know each other as fellow VD fans if not i understand! just let me know if theres a way for us to talk privately :)

  • http://www.vampire-diaries.net/ Red

    I’m kind of shy and don’t do one-on-one chat, but I do participate a lot in the forums, and there are loads of fans there who’d love to get to know new people, too. You should head on over, sign up and introduce yourself. :)

    aww..im really shy too, so thats why i kinda was staying away from posting in the forum haha but, i respect your feelings just let me know if you ever change your mind :)

  • http://www.salishna.net/damon Adia

    Well, I still have my issues. And I think I’ll always have issues with some of the things they are doing/changed etc.

    BUT. I have to admit it looks a lot better in the above trailer, than what I was expecting. I even smirked when Damon ‘flew’ in, which I guess is something for me.

    Thanks for posting the extended trailer!

    I like this much better than the 3 separate clips that the CW released previously. This trailer conveys the storyline in a more cohesive manner. A lot seems to have been changed from the novels, but I’m digging it! I think the CW has a hit on their hands…

    As a fan of LJ Smith since the 90s (The Forbidden Game was my favorite trilogy), I’ll be watching TVD in the fall for sure.

  • Tara

    LOL @ “Caroline” taking on the Bonnie/Frances role of knowing Stefan’s schedule for Elena’s benefit. Woe is Frances…will we lose her along with Steve the Homeless Guy?

    I have to admit that even though everyone looks absolutely wrong, it is growing on me.

    Also LOL @ “Katherine 1864″.

  • Ally

    Love it. Does anyone know the song that plays in the middle bit (just before/during the girl getting attacked bit at that party thing).

  • shadowkiss13

    Whew! I think that was very good and I’d be prepared to overlook the changes to give a shot as I think that acting is looking very good.

  • Carolina

    Does anyone known the name of all of the songs in this preview?????

  • http://www.vampire-diaries.net/ Red

    We’re working on finding out. We’ll put a list up when we know. :)

  • Carolina

    Thanks..would they be posted here on this page once the songs are found?

  • http://www.vampire-diaries.net/ Red

    Likely we’ll make a blog post about it.

  • Julia

    i read somewere that elena, bonnie and caroline will be cheerleaders. is that true?

  • http://www.vampire-diaries.net/ Red

    That was floating around from the casting sides. There’s no mention of it in the trailers, so hopefully they won’t be cheerleaders in the series.

  • Heather

    Sounded like some Panic at the Disco music in the extended trailer I saw on youtube. Not sure which song it is, though.

  • Alina

    Damon is supposed to be as sexy as Stefan if not sexier. That is not the case here. Which kinda disappoints me. He should look A LOT better than in that trailer. And I don’t see Elena acting like a bitch yet. Caroline was supposed to start acting like a bitch from the start. Yes, I am very intune to the clips and everything, especially the books. And I tend to like seeing what’s in the books come out to life, on TV. So, it is a little disappointing for me to see how this is going so far. And they need to put Katherine in there as well. It’s not only the boy’s that are going after Elena. It’s Katherine as well. I’ll still be watching the show. But, I know it wont be like the books…….

  • killerchopsticks

    I can’t help but say that I’m liking Paul Wesley more and more as Stefan. Love that scene when they talk about her and her relationship with Matt lacking passion. Chemistry!

  • Mesrtyn

    naw naw! com’on!.. i cannot wait.. !that’s so…………….. =) totally,a bomb. will definitely watch this. I want more.

  • Lee

    wow, gotta say i’m impressed with the acting, if they can raise the bar with the acting and keep the script from being cheesy this will be a great show!

  • Krystiena

    Wow, I read these books when I was in 8th grade, and have always been fascinated with them. I also just read the 5th book that was just released not long ago. I have to say, the series is going to take some getting used to. It looks like they changed it alot. What happened to Robert E. Lee High, and they’re supposed to live in Fells Church Virginia, Stefan and Damon are originally from Italy, Elena is supposed to be blond, and there seem to be different characters that they’re throwing in there. Not to mention that Elena was a 3 year old when her parents died, and shes supposed to have a baby sister named Margarette. My big question is, where is Merideth??? Hmmmm, like I said, it’s going to take some getting used to.

  • killerchopsticks

    They couldn’t get the legal rights to the town’s name for they had to change it to Mystic Falls. So perfectly understandable.

    And there will be a Meredith. The producers have confirmed it, but she won’t be in the pilot (cause they’re introducing 10 of the characters already).

  • VDfan

    lol u got that deja vu feeling too? im nt the only one.

    bt i cnt wait to see it!
