Is Vampire Diaries worth watching? Its a Vampire Diaries Reunion!
At first glance, The Vampire Diaries looks like another Twilight knockoff. But it’s so much more than that. For one thing, it’s not set in high school; instead, we follow college student Elena Gilbert as she tries to fit into her new life at Whitmore College in small-town Virginia.

Is there hope for more? Here are five reasons why we think so…
Was Stefan in The Originals?

Last week we discovered that Elijah Mikaelson (Daniel Gillies) was trapped in New Orleans after being beheaded in Mystic Falls by Klaus Mikaelson’s (Joseph Morgan) Original hybrid vampires.
Who is Elena’s doppelganger?
We knew that Nina Dobrev wasn’t coming back for The Vampire Diaries season 8 but now we know exactly who will replace her in time travel. Matt Davis, who played Alaric on The CW series for six seasons, will be joining The Originals in its final season. And as it turns out, his character has already crossed paths with Rebekah (Claire Holt). Or has he? We’ll see when he returns to New Orleans at some point in 2017.

MORE Q & A
The actress joins The Originals on Friday, Feb. 17, as Tatia and reprises her role in April when The Vampire Diaries airs its series finale. She spoke with TVLine’s Michael Ausiello about what to expect from these two memorable characters.
How will she fit into both shows? Tatia is back in Mystic Falls for a brief period of time because she has some unfinished business that needs to be taken care of before she can move on. That’s all I can say right now without giving away too much of The Vampire Diaries Season 8 premiere.
Why did Candice from TVD get purple pain on her face?
The purple circles on her cheeks are a kind of acne. Candice Accola, who played Caroline on The Vampire Diaries (TVD), got makeup for it in real life and Katerina Graham, who played Bonnie (Bethany) Bennett had to wear glasses when she was playing. These actresses also had to wear contacts so that their eyes would match that of their characters.
