Vampire Diaries: The Complete First Season

If you like your vampire stories full of gore and gratuitous nudity, like you get each week in the HBO series True Blood, then this CW hit series may be too tame for you. And that’s too bad. Sure, it’s a bit too-teen centric for its own good, and the shows depend way too much on the cheesy pop music soundtrack to sell the emotions in each scene, but the stories are fun and the acting is pretty good, especially Paul Wesley and Ian Somerhalder as the sibling bloodsuckers.
