One of my favourite "dramedy" shows is back, and the third season is as good as ever. A few specific points, though.
First, Rusty's new girlfriend. I don't like her nearly as much as his first girlfriend (whose name escapes me).
Second, Cappie and Casey. Get together, already!
Third, loving that Frannie is gone. Hated her.

The Vampire Diaries Post-Pilot Thoughts
Decent show with a decent premise, and a series imported from books is always likely to have good writing and stories, but this show suffers from two fatal flaws:
First, True Blood. True Blood is infinitely better, and always will be, and I simply can't get past the image of this being nothing more than a poor man's True Blood.
Second, the actors. To me they all look the same, and have mostly the same wooden performances, with the exceptions of the lead man Paul Wesley and Lost alum Ian Somerhalder.
This fictional school suffers from the typical american teen drama problem which is that the entire cast is unfeasibly attractive and seem to worry more about their relationships and parties than actually attending school.
Nevertheless, the show shows promise, and I'll be following it to see how it turns out.
