The Vampire Diarieswas the bloody bite felt around the world when it debuted on the CW back in 2009. At the height of the network's reign, teen dramas were all the rage, with Gossip Girldominating the charts, and One Tree Hillhaving just had its curtain call. Young audiences desperately needed a new series to root for with love triangles to drive them mad, and The Vampire Diaries was the answer. Ushering in a new kind of teen show, it was a hybrid of romance, fantasy, and horror, with blood and guts, accompanied by corsages for prom. It launched the careers of Nina Dobrev, Paul Wesley, and Ian Somerhalderas Elena Gilbert, Stefan, and Damon Salvatore, and the greatest teen vampire series of the 2010s was born.
