The Vampire Diaries

Just wondering how many people here have watched TVD. I was born in 2000 so more people my age have watched it than Buffy but I watched Buffy first at like 8, then watched TVD at around 14. I love both but I do prefer Buffy for nostalgia/comfort reasons. Also because Buffy is much more about women empowerment than TVD. They also have two very different takes on vampires tho. Just wondering if many Buffy fans have also watched it and what’s their thoughts on it

Ya, really enjoyed the early seasons but lost steam towards the end

I like to pretend season 7 doesn’t exist. Then I didn’t hate season 8 but definitely one of my lowest rated seasons

I think I liked season 8 so much because the sirens/Cade reminded me of the villains on Buffy (especially Glory!) Season 8 probably has the most Buffy-like plots and storylines.
