Thanks for the link to the pilot episode Tony. I watched it and liked what I saw. The story begins as this sort of slow burn and creates an intrigue that left me wanting to learn more. I thought I saw the pilot before, but I don't remember seeing this....so I'm guessing what I saw was another early episode a few years ago. I didn't realize it was set under the guise of a high school drama.
I got a kick out of the cemetery scene where Elena cuts herself, and Stefan see's her blood and has to fight himself to not act on temptation. It was a bit off putting to see Jenna alive and well....knowing what her final fate becomes. I don't know if I liked Ian Somerholder's character....I've seen him in other things, and I hardly ever like his characters because they tend to be dark, narcissistic and vapid....and that's how he seems here too...but I'm intrigued by the overall premise of the show, so maybe the more I learn about his character, the more I'll like him.
Interesting show though. Again it's noticeably different from True Blood. More serious and subtle. Resisting the urge to go to wikipedia and spoil my ignorance.
Now onto episode 2.
