Only A Real Fan Knows If This Happened On Buffy Or The Vampire Diaries

We all know that The Vampire Diaries and Buffy, The Vampire Slayer are two of the best shows on television that feature all of our favorite monsters; from brooding vampires to larger than life vampires to demons straight out of the pits of hell! Before Twilight hit the scene and made us fall head over heels in love with the archetypical high school vampire, Buffy was defending her friends and town from the forces of evil. This original series spawned a movie, tons of spin-offs and a whole generation who wanted to tap into their very own Buffy girl power and start kicking supernatural ass.

The Vampire Diaries took a slightly different tack. The vampires in this show are more pitiable, human and dare we say... sexy! The whole town is full of brooding vampires, witches and werewolves who are part supernatural and part typical high school student. Full of love triangles, plot twists and an addictive story featuring the elusive original vampires, The Vampire Diaries is some addictive, great storytelling.
