No!

Oh, Vampire Diaries why must you keep killing characters I like?

I know everyone else disliked Vicki but I loved her and her white-trash issues. I approve of girls who are that bitchy and self-destructive and broken.

In other news, Damon was deliciously sociopathic, and Damon/Elena suddenly ...began to be appealing.

Damon is rather delicious. Stephan...broods really well. I think he took lessons from early Angel.

The series is quite different from the books, but not in a bad way. Much like with True Blood, the show gives us more background characters, and it gives them more story. Though, I think I like the books' Bonnie better.

He does. He's also AMUSING with both his brooding and his personality, which gives him an edge over Angel, imho.

What did you like better about Bonnie?

I haven't read the books yet, but I expect I'll be getting them as a Christmas present.

The thing that made me stop and do a double take was the fact that I felt bad about her death. Normally, I don't feel bad when people die that you aren't supposed to like, even if I like them. I stop and go, "grr, plot movement, plot movement." And I didn't really like Vicki at all, but when he stabbed her, I actually felt really, really bad.

I was hugely Stefan/Elena in the beginning, and now, I think Damon's a far more developed character and has more depth than Stefan does. And I think it's because we've seen the Remorseful Vampire so many times, especially now, what with Twilight and everything. Stefan does what a vampire does: he kills and takes what he wants. But he does care, he just wishes he didn't. It's different.

Why do you think we weren't supposed to like Vicki? I mean, I understand NOT liking her (okay, not really) but she was presented as a broken, screwed up, damaged girl who then got killed by Damon and further fucked over.

I was hugely Stefan/Elena in the beginning, and now, I think Damon's a far more developed character and has more depth than Stefan does.

That is exactly what I went through. There is just something so INTERESTING about the bad ones.
