We’ve spent the past ten episodes of the Vampire Diaries wondering where on earth Matt and Vicki Donovan’s mother was (especially given that her daughter is officially missing), and now we’re finally going to find out. According to the Ausiello Files, Kelly Donovan will be played by Melinda Clarke (Julie Cooper in The O.C. and Lady Heather in CSI), and is due to appear on the show for a few episodes in March. By all accounts, she’s going to be a piece of work, but at least we’ll know for sure that Matt and Vicki do have parents and weren’t found in the Mystic Falls pumpkin patch. ;)
The official synopsis for episode 12, “Unpleasantville”, has been released by the CW. Definitely some spoilery hints in this one, so highlight/mouseover to view the information.
THE NEW KIDS IN TOWN. As Stefan and Damon try to figure out the identity of the new vampire in town, Stefan gives Elena jewelry filled with vervain to protect her family and friends. Hurting for money, Matt takes a job at the Mystic Grill, where former high school football-star Ben, works as a bartender. Ben comes to Bonnie’s aid when he notices Damon is bothering her. Damon and Stefan accompany Elena to a school dance with a 1950s’ theme, where Alaric introduces himself to Damon.
Finally, Ian Somerhalder Italy have pointed us at one of the behind the scenes videos about the pilot that’s been dubbed into Italian for airing in Italy. There are a few Stefan snippets, but it’s actually more fun to see exec producers Kevin Williamson and Julie Plec with Italian voiceovers.

Neat coincidence.
All the moms on TVD have been Jerry’s girlfriends on Seinfeld.
Melinda Clarke (Matt’s mom) was the girlfriend that Jerry tries to hide he shave during the Kramer/Peterman reality tour.
Marguerite MacIntyre (Caroline’s mom) was Miss. Rhode Island that Jerry killed her magic act doves.
And Susan Walters (Tyler’s mom) was THE famous Mulva. Johanna(Quote)

So we’re left to wonder:
Will Bonnie finally be shown some interest from a guy?
Will someone finally give Caroline some vervain? nysiren(Quote)

I am so happy that Melinda Clarke will be on the show, I loved her both on CSI and The OC. She’ll be awesome in the role. Kehacakes(Quote)
