The Vampire Diaries/The Originals PaleyFest + Divergent

Last Saturday night Leeann and I went to our THIRD Vampire Diaries PaleyFest together! It is actually how we first met. I had an extra ticket way back in 2010. Another blog friend, Angela, told me that Leeann was also a fan of the show so I emailed Leeann and the rest is history! Leeann and I celebrated our 4 year blog friendship anniversary with The Vampire Diaries PaleyFest, seeing Divergent, and then a blogger brunch Sunday morning (recap here). I decided just to bring my iphone and skip the fancy camera but I think next year I'll go back to the real camera.

If you are a TV fan you should definitely come out to LA for PaleyFest put on yearly by The Paley Center for Media. Each year over two weeks in spring a bunch of different shows, old and new, have panels with the actors and creative teams. There is a Q&A and if you are lucky you may get to see an episode of the show too! In the past I have been to: Castle (2012), Vampire Diaries (2010, 2012, and 2014), Revenge (2012), Glee (2010), NCIS (2010), and Lost (2010 and 2014)

We also met Brianna and her friend for dinner before the panel. It turns out their seats were in the row behind us!

LOVE these two! They were holding hands in the beginning and goofing around the whole time

Joseph Morgan/Klaus is my favorite. From the moment I saw him on TVD I was hooked. I miss him in Mystic Falls but I am happy he has his own show now!

It was small group for TVD (the three below plus creator Julie Plec and writer/producer Caroline Dries)

After the panel we went to the 10 PM showing of Divergent. Leeann let me borrow her books and I am obsessed! I highly recommend the books and the movie. I am already counting down the days until the next movie! Theo James/Four: SWOON. Did anyone else read the books or see the movie?
