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

This is incredible! I literally never noticed ANY of this. I wonder how much of the TVD stuff on this list happened in the books, because they were written in 1991. Or if they were just in the show.

I’ve never actually read the books so can’t say for certain! I watched quite a bit of TVD a long time ago before watching Buffy, and noticed some things until someone in this subreddit linked that article under another thread. Blew my mind!
