The CW is jumping on the "vampire bandwagon" with a show based on the book series entitled Vampire Diaries. Does anyone remember the show called Angel that would have fit the bill just fine and made the CW look like they actually knew what cool was before everyone else? Frustrating.

Just wanted to say that I googled vampire diaries and decided to buy it. Thanks for the tip.
ReplyDeleteIt is pretty ironic the CW wants a show about vampires, but maybe not. The show will be more of a romance, an undead "One Tree Hill" rather than show about a crime-fighting vampire. There is a difference.
ReplyDeleteIt's still ironic, though.
I guess I could check it out ....
ReplyDeleteI never really got into the Twilight series, and Buffy and Angel will always hold a place in my heart.
That will be hard to beat!
It makes me sick that Angel was cancelled after the 5th season, Joss did very well wrapping it up the best he could (though some things like Cordies death seem stupid to me) but it would have been great to see Angel continue to atleast the 6th season. but alas the WB was too stupid to do it.
ReplyDeleteAngel will forever be one of the greatest shows ive ever watched.
