I love "The Vampire Diaries", watching the new Season 3 episodes are a highlight in my week, sad (sigh) I know but I really love escapism through television. So far the episode "The Hybrid" is a favorite, pitch perfect; funny, dramatic, so tragically romantic I could barely stand it. Stefan and Elena ( Paul Wesley and Nina Dobrev) are killing it softly. Damon ( Ian Somerhalder) poor boy *tsk* love him to bits but he needs to move on from his misplaced, supposed love for Elena. Damon should  realize and recognize Elena  is a rebound from his epically abysmal love for Katherine.
