I just can’t get passed how much older the lead men are than the female. I get that vampires don’t age, but they have an age when they are turned. As much as I love Ian (and everyone from LOST for that matter), he is way too old for this part.

Ian Somerhalder should have been Edward. He is the hottest Vamp out there!

I totally agree about CW shows being a guilty pleasure!!! And I thought it was just me… :)

Oh and as for them being “too old” to play high school students, what do you expect? Almost every actor on a teen show is mid 20′s-early 30′s!!!

I’ll totally watch it because I love the books, but to the people saying ‘ew, this is so Twilight’…it’s not. Promise. Unless they changed the entire show to fit the whole new Twilight Craze.

Smith’s Vampire Diaries series and the Night World Series (still hands down one of my favorites ever) are quality writing and entertaining to boot.

I’m so with the other LJ readers here. Huzzah, even if it sucks. LOL

I am so excited to see how this show plays out. I loved these books (and everything written by LJ Smith) when I was a teen. It’s crazy to me that these are now being republished and turned into a TV show all these years later, but I’m all for it!

Ok, ok I know I shouldn’t say “thats not canon!”, but aren’t her eyes supposed to be the same color as the rings? And aren’t the brothers supposed to..um, look like brothers? WTF.

I’ll still give it a shot though, lol

Roswell is definitely available on DVD and you can watch it online http://www.thewb.com. It’s my guilty pleasure!

@yeahyeahyeah agreed these new shows seem to focus more on having hot guys (not that I am complaining about that) than on believable actresses/characters (that I complain about) that love them

@ hhmmm… kinda like what kristen stewart’s horrible acting did to twilight. ruin in. at least the guys are HAWT. that must be what all the vamp shows/movies are going for. get the girls to drool and they’ve got a winner

I will probably check this show out. I love vampire stuff … but I really don’t like that actress, as others have said in this comment thread all I see is Mia from Degrassi and she is not a good actress so I hope she doesn’t ruin the show :(

I have been thinking about Roswell lately, it was such a good show! Does anyone know if you can get DVD’s of Roswell?

I’m the same, it’s all CHEESE. And the first pic looks like an orgy (a girl and two brothers? Sick!)
I hated Twilight (barf)
I won’t watch this one (incest orgies)

I dont read anything about vampires. i am sorta vampired out so i wont be watching this but…you said its aimed towards “tweens” but it shows some (supposedly) high school chick engaging in what looks like some threeway action with her neck being licked? weird

Whatever, im so tired with vampires, and im a teen girl myself

Damn Ian is hawt.

so I saw the pilot a few weeks ago and it was a little rougher than twilight and more tame than true blood with hints of both sprinkled through out. but I will say it did have some great music (as did the melrose redo pilot)

Is it just me or does the girl look so much younger than the two guys that it’s somewhat unbelievable that they are chasing after her. She looks all of 15, and they look like they are in the mid 20′s.
Anywhooo… Ian Somerhalder is all kinds of sexy, so I’ll definitely tune in.
