From tvline.com Vampire Diaries Boss Talks Season 4, More 'Mean Girl' Rebekah, Killing Klaus
and Graduation! by Megan Masters The Vampire Diaries‘ writers room has only just begun to map out Season 4,
but boss lady Julie Plec is already privy to some storyline secrets — and
TVLine was fortunate enough to pick her brain about a few of them at last
weekend’s inaugural ATX Television Festival in Austin. Here’s what the Mystic Falls mastermind revealed about new journeys for both
Elena and beloved bitch Rebekah, how Klaus has managed to survive time and
time again, impending graduation and more. On Vampire Elena’s Season 4 Journey | “How do you go to high school as a new
vampire? How do you fall in or out of love? How does it change who you are
and what you feel? … We get really excited when we talk about this [arc]
because it feels so deliciously Season 1 all over again,” Plec enthused. “It
takes us right back to Stefan arriving in Mystic Falls, trying to hold
himself together and not let anybody know who he was. Now, we get to watch
our heroine go through all of that.” On Why Big Bad Klaus Is Still Around | “I will tell you this — and I haven’t
said this before: Our intention was to kill Klaus at the end of Season 3,”
confided Plec. “We created the character last year… and our intention was,
that after a long, arduous year of trying to vanquish and defeat the
villain, our heroes would prevail and he would be no more. But when you have
actors [like Joseph Morgan] who are that good, making such a distinct mark
in the roles that they are playing, you have to let your storytelling evolve
and wrap around that a little bit. We collectively decided around the middle
of Season 3 that we weren’t done with Klaus — or Joseph. We also weren’t
done with the Original family, because with the addition of Rebekah and Kol,
there’s still a lot of story to tell. Sometimes [as a writer] you kill a
character because you don’t know what else you can do with them, and
sometimes you kill them because their death will so powerfully impact your
other characters. But if you’re killing a character who is doing a great job
with tons and tons of story left in him, you’re making a mistake. We had to
do a bit of an about-face in our storytelling, which is how we came up with
the Tyler body swap [in the finale]. So, we got to kill Klaus, and then
not!” On Rebekah’s Role as the ‘Mean Girl’ Queen Bee | “What I’m excited about
with Rebekah [in Season 4], specifically, is that we have never had a true
antagonist on a human/teenage level,” she noted. “We’ve never had our
Valerie [from Beverly Hills, 90210] or our Amanda Woodward [from Melrose
Place]. And with Rebekah, who is so vulnerable and damaged but has that
tough exterior, we get to see a queen bee in action; we get to see a mean
girl. As we get into the second half of their senior year, here’s Rebekah,
still in Mystic Falls, heading back to school, completely ostracized from
the community of people that she knows because of what she did to Elena and
Matt [in the finale]. She’s completely loathed by the one guy [Matt] that
she had a crush on, and also by her past love [Stefan]. What’s she going to
do about that? How does a vampire, who has all kinds of mind control
capabilities and sass, carve her way into the high school world when the
people that we love hate her guts? Once she gets over the hump of being
“World’s Most Hated” in the yearbook, how will she live? And what will her
life be like?” On Who Will Be in the Forefront Next Season | “Obviously, Elena and her
journey are going to be front and center, but one of the things that we’ve
finally been able to do over the past year is dig much deeper into the other
characters — their lives, their wants, their loves. We’ve given Matt Donovan
his due, and given Bonnie her time in the sun, and Caroline especially has
evolved into a leading lady in her own right. So, this is going to be the
year that ‘Donna Martin graduates,’” announced Plec with a laugh. “This is
our friends finishing out their high school lives and their lives in Mystic
Falls, and each of them is going to have a transitional journey about where
they go and what they’re meant to be. It’s going to be a really exciting
year because it’s one of endings as much as it’s about new beginnings. On Mystic Falls High’s Class of 2013 | “Our goal is that this will be the
year that gets them out of high school,” she said, “and tees us up for what
will become of them in Season 5.”

BURBANK, CA (June 2, 2015) - Mystic Falls bids
farewell to one of TV's hottest vampires when The
Vampire Diaries: The Complete Sixth Season is
released on Blu-ray and DVD on September 1, 2015,
from Warner Bros. Home Entertainment. Averaging
nearly 2.7 million viewers weekly in its sixth
season, The Vampire Diaries remains The CW's #1 show
with young female demos and will return for a
seventh season on The CW this fall. Fans can get
sucked into all 22 one-hour episodes from Season Six
and gorge on nearly two hours of gripping extras -
including two brand-new featurettes, episodic audio
commentary, the 2014 Comic-Con panel, deleted scenes
and a gag reel. The Vampire Diaries: The Complete
Sixth Season will be priced to own on DVD at $49.99

The Vampire Diaries continues in its Sixth Season
with more delicious drama to sink your teeth into.
In Season Five, after a passionate summer with
Damon, Elena headed to Whitmore College with
Caroline, not knowing Bonnie sacrificed her life for
Jeremy's. Meanwhile, Stefan and Caroline's
friendship deepened as they stood up to the
Travelers, a nomadic witch tribe driven to strip
Mystic Falls of magic and cast out its supernatural
residents. In the shocking season finale, Damon -
fearing he would lose his loved ones on the
crumbling Other Side - made a huge sacrifice to
bring them all back...with catastrophic and
heartbreaking results. Season Six follows the
characters' journey back to each other as they
explore the duality of good versus evil inside
themselves. Matt Davis reprises his role as Alaric
Saltzman, recently returned from The Other Side.
Plus, the season will make you misty-eyed as the
departure of a major character will turn lives
upside down, and leave us asking what happened to
Mystic Falls.

BURBANK, CA (June 2, 2015) - Ready to feast on this? Just in time for the Season Three premiere on The CW, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment will release The Originals: The Complete Second Season on Blu-ray and DVD on September 1, 2015. Averaging nearly 2.2 million viewers weekly, The Originals is one of The CW's top shows this season (Source: Nielsen Galaxy Explorer L-7 US AA%; excluding repeats, specials & breakouts; This Season = 14-15 Season = 09/29/2014-03/22/2015).

As Original vampire-werewolf hybrid Klaus Mikaelson returned to the vibrant, supernaturally charged city of New Orleans in Season One, he was stunned to learn - along with his siblings Elijah and Rebekah - that Hayley, a werewolf, was pregnant with his child, and his vampire protégé, Marcel, whom the Original siblings had thought long dead, was ruling the French Quarter. Soon, a bloody war escalated between vampires and witches - the stakes raised by powerful teenage witch Davina and by Klaus's bond with Cami, a student with a painful past - and a ruthless pack of wolves seized the opportunity to stage a violent coup. Now, in Season Two, a new status quo must be adjusted to, as the newly empowered werewolves control the city. Klaus struggles with weaknesses as Elijah desperately tries to save Hayley - now a hybrid - from a vicious spiral of self-destruction. Meanwhile, with the re-emergence of several Mikaelsons, "family is power" takes on new meaning.
With Blu-ray's unsurpassed picture and sound, The Originals: The Complete Second Season Blu-ray release will include 1080p Full HD Video with DTS-HD Master Audio for English 5.1. The 3-disc Blu-ray will feature a high-definition Blu-ray and a Digital HD copy of all 22 episodes from Season Two.

From tvshowsondvd.com: The Originals - Early Cover
Art for 'The Complete 2nd Season' on DVD
DVD and Blu-ray releases are in-the-works, but no
street date just yet
Earlier this year we alerted you that The Originals
- The Complete 2nd Season was in-the-works for DVD
and Blu-ray Disc, and that Amazon.com was beginning
to take pre-orders for the title on both
formats...even though Warner Home Video hadn't
announced it yet. That's still the case, and because
of that we still don't have a street date or further
details yet.
However, Amazon's updated the artwork at their
pre-order listings (see button link below) to show a
key image at the Blu-ray entry, and at the DVD entry
was appears to be an early front cover for that
format's packaging from the title. The BD entry's
art is a cropped version of that, lacking the
subtitle ("The Complete 2nd Season") and the regular
Blu-ray indicators (logo, blue banner across the
top)...but the BD set's art will probably be the
same as the DVD version. Our thanks to one of our
readers, "Mac," for pointing it out!
The Vampire Diaries - Blu-ray and DVD Dates are
Revealed for 'The Complete 6th Season'
From
tvshowsondvd.com Amazon says to expect this item
to be in stores at the start of September
We told you back in February that Warner Home Video
was already working on releases for The Vampire
Diaries - The Complete 6th Season on both DVD and
high-def Blu-ray Disc. We didn't have a street date
for you at the time, but now Amazon.com has updated
their pre-order listings (above) to show that this
title will be available on Tuesday, September 1st.
We're still waiting on the official studio
announcement confirming this info, and providing
package art (currently Amazon is merely displaying
temp art) and finalized details, but for now we're
penciling this date in on our calendar. Stay tuned
for updates, as more info becomes available!
From CBS Soaps In Depth (Ewell played Vicky on TVD):
Congratulations are in order for THE BOLD & THE
BEAUTIFUL alum Kayla Ewell (ex-Caitlin), who just
became engaged to boyfriend Tanner Novlan. The

From hollywoodreporter.com: Syfy Acquires CW Drama
'The Originals' for U.K.
The "Vampire Diaries" spinoff, set to debut in the
U.S. in October, is the British network's biggest
acquisition since "V" in 2010.
LONDON – NBCUniversal's Syfy has secured the U.K.
premiere rights for supernatural drama The
Originals, which is set to debut in the U.S. on The
CW in October.
The show, a spinoff of The Vampire Diaries, will
come to Britain some time this fall via the network
based on a deal with Warner Bros. International
Television Distribution. It is Syfy U.K.'s biggest
series acquisition since V a few years ago.
Financial details weren't disclosed.
The Originals focuses on the Mikaelson siblings,
Klaus, Elijah and Rebekah, first seen in season two
of The Vampire Diaries as the world's original
vampires. The show sees them return to their former
home in New Orleans where they become embroiled in a
power struggle with others claiming the city. The
series stars Joseph Morgan (The Vampire Diaries,
Immortals), Daniel Gillies (The Vampire Diaries,
Saving Hope), Claire Holt (The Vampire Diaries,
Pretty Little Liars), Charles Michael Davis (The
Game, Switched at Birth) and others.
Said Adam Collings, channel director of Syfy U.K.:
"With such an established and successful heritage
and U.S. network credentials, The Originals is our
biggest acquisition since V in 2010. Its narrative
is edgy and contemporary and has something for fans
of The Vampire Diaries and new viewers to the
franchise alike."
Jeffrey Schlesinger, president of Warner Bros.
Worldwide Television Distribution, said: "Syfy is
the perfect home for The Originals, and we are
certain not only will fans in the U.K. who have made
The Vampire Diaries such an enormous hit embrace
this new series, but new viewers will as well."
The Originals is from Bonanza Productions in
association with My So-Called Company, Alloy
Entertainment, Warner Bros. Television and CBS
Television Studios. Julie Plec (The Vampire Diaries,
Wasteland), Leslie Morgenstein (The Vampire Diaries,
Gossip Girl) and Gina Girolamo (The Lying Game) are
executive producers on the show.

newly-turned vampire Elena (Nina Dobrev) will have what Plec calls
her "first hot vampire sex" with either Damon, Stefan, Klaus, Matt
or Elijah. And fans can expect a "big, spontaneous, explosion of joy
with some kissing" the first time Caroline (Candice Accola) lays
eyes on Tyler, who she thought died. *Bones* Takes on Jack the Ripper : *Bones* is going back in time to
face off against history's most notorious killer: Jack the Ripper. A
murder will take place in an unusual hipster community where
everyone lives like it's the late 1800s. Star Emily Deschanel muses,
"Brennan will have a field day with this, because it's like
discovering a tribe that hasn't been touched by modern society."

VAMPIRE DIARIES First Look: Will Klaus Take a Bite Out of 7TH HEAVEN's
David Gallagher? http://t.co/FSxEP0u
From Entertainment Weekly: Season 3 is about leveling the playing field
between Damon (Ian Somerhalder) and Stefan (Paul Wesley), who's now
wingman for Klaus (Joseph Morgan). ''Stefan has been the saint, and
Damon has been the sinner. Now it's about each of them being a little
bit of both,'' says exec producer Julie Plec. ''If Elena [Nina Dobrev]
is able to still love Stefan when all is said and done, then is it also
possible that she could ultimately feel the same way about Damon?''

protection concerns and other issues that he cares deeply about," says Beverly Kaskey, senior director of The HSUS's Hollywood Outreach and
executive producer of the annual Genesis Awards. "From addressing Congress to making TV appearances to regularly blogging to informing
his million-plus followers on Twitter, Ian is a major voice and force for animals and a most deserving recipient of The Wyler Award."
The Wyler Award is named after former Broadway actress, animal advocate and founder of The Genesis Awards, Gretchen Wyler. Ian Somerhalder
joins Wyler Award alumni Sir Paul McCartney, Hayden Panettiere, Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi, and Kristin Davis.

IAN SOMERHALDER FOUNDATION CALLS ON
PRESIDENT OBAMA
AND SECRETARY OF STATE HILLARY CLINTON
TO DENY THE KEYSTONE XL PIPELINE PERMIT
WASHINGTON, DC - The Ian Somerhalder Foundation (ISF) today joined the
ever growing international chorus opposing the Keystone XL pipeline. The
pipeline project, which would transport extremely toxic tar sands oil
nearly 2,000 miles from Alberta, Canada through the middle of the U.S.
heartland to the Texas Gulf coast for refining, has drawn criticism from
environmental communities in both the US and Canada.
"The proposed Keystone XL pipeline puts fish and wildlife at risk,
threatens the
health and livelihood of countless American farmers, and perpetuates the
United States' unhealthy dependence on oil," says ISF founder Ian
Somerhalder. "On behalf
of myself, the IS Foundation, and the 22,000 people who have already
signed our Stop the Tar Sands Oil Keystone XL Pipeline Petition, we
strongly urge the Obama
Administration to follow through on its promise to 'end the age of oil in
our time.'"
Backed by more than one million twitter followers and the tens of ISF
partnership organizations, Somerhalder called on President Barack Obama
and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to fulfill their pledges to act on
climate change by denying the
permit for Keystone XL.
Tar sands oil production is one of the most destructive strip mining
techniques on earth and results in habitat loss, drinking water
contamination, and three times the amount of carbon released into the
atmosphere than that of traditional oil.
According to Friends of the Earth and a coalition of 20 major
environmental groups,
recent pipeline spills in the Yellowstone River (July 2011) and the
Kalamazoo River (July 2010) have led to more than a million gallons of tar
sands oil poured into
U.S. rivers, coated wildlife, and caused long-term damage to the local
economy
and ecosystem.
IS Foundation (ISF): Founded by actor and activist Ian Somerhalder, the IS
Foundation aims to empower, educate and collaborate with people and
projects to positively impact the planet and its creatures. ISF believes
that the global problems and challenges we are facing are infinitely
interconnected and co-dependent, therefore our solutions and actions must
be enacted in an interconnected manner.
From E! news 9/7: The 5 things you don't know about "Vampire Diaries" star Ian
Somerhalder: 1) He auditioned for True Blood (he told us he blew the
audition). 2) He modeled when he was 10. 3) Had a non-traditional
education 4) Owns a pizza place in Idaho 5) He's an active
environmentalist

April 26, 2011 (Burbank, California) - The CW Network has given early
pickups to five of its established series for next season, including an
All-Star Cycle of AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL and the network's top-rated
drama THE VAMPIRE DIARIES. All five shows will return in Fall 2011.

CW's signature reality series will kick-off the Fall with its first-ever
All-Star Edition, featuring the models who became breakout characters and
who had the most memorable stories from past cycles. Additional details

The CW's bloodily addictive hit THE VAMPIRE DIARIES was also given an
early renewal, and in its sophomore season, remains the network's
most-watched show (4.0 million viewers) and the network's number-one show
among its target audience of women 18-34 (2.9/9).
Also given early pickups for next season are The CW's scandalous guilty
pleasures GOSSIP GIRL, the network's second most popular series with women

“THE VAMPIRE DIARIES” WEEK-LONG MARATHON, BEGINS MONDAY, DEC. 13
The CW to Rebroadcast the First 10 Episodes from the Sophomore Season,
Airing Two Episodes Each Night (8:00-10:00p.m. ET/PT) From Monday, Dec. 13
through Friday, Dec. 17
November 4, 2010 (Burbank, CA) - The CW Network today announced plans
for a special marathon week featuring The Vampire Diaries, starting on
Monday, December 13. For the second year in a row, this week-long event
offers fans the opportunity to catch up with season two of The Vampire
Diaries and allows the uninitiated the chance to get into one of TV’s
breakout hits.
Airing two episodes each night from Monday, Dec. 13 through Friday, Dec.
17 (8:00-10:00p.m. ET/PT), The CW will rebroadcast the first 10 episodes
of the second season of its addictive hit The Vampire Diaries across its
entire primetime schedule that week, beginning with this season’s
explosive premiere. The Vampire Diaries is The CW’s most-watched and
highest-rated series among adults 18-34 this season.
The Vampire Diaries is the story of two vampire brothers obsessed with the
same beautiful girl, and battling to control the fate of an entire town.
During season one, Stefan (Paul Wesley, “Fallen”) and Damon Salvatore
(Ian Somerhalder, “Lost”), returned to their hometown of Mystic Falls,
Virginia, for very different reasons - Stefan was determined to get to
know Elena Gilbert (Nina Dobrev, the upcoming film, “The Killing
Game”), who bears a striking resemblance to Katherine Pierce, the
beautiful but ruthless vampire the brothers knew and loved in 1864, while
Damon was intent on releasing Katherine from the tomb where he believed
she was trapped by a witch’s spell all those years ago. In season two,
the appearance of the villainous Katherine in Mystic Falls has thrown a
wrench into the love triangle between Stefan, Elena and Damon, and the
other residents of Mystic Falls must choose sides as they fall victim to a
new breed of danger.
Based on the series of books by L. J. Smith, The Vampire Diaries is from
Bonanza Productions Inc., Outerbanks Entertainment and Alloy Entertainment
in association with Warner Bros. Television and CBS Television Studios
with executive producers Kevin Williamson (“Scream,” “Dawson’s
Creek”), Julie Plec (“Kyle XY,” “Wasteland”), Leslie Morgenstein
(“Gossip Girl,” “Private”) and Bob Levy (“Gossip Girl,”
