Few television shows in the past twenty five years have established such a loyal and devoted following as Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Interestingly, given the popularity of vampires from the success of the Twilight Saga and the Twilight sequel New Moon, the legions of Buffy fans are still out there, lurking in the shadows of the Twilight Saga. Nine years after Buffy the Vampire left the airwaves in 2003 on a high, Buffy fans of the '90s have grown up but the fan base now includes a younger generation that also found the series on DVD. But with the popularity of vampires at a fever pitch thanks to Twilight, the argument can be made that there's no better time for Buffy the Vampire Slayer to return to slay the competition.

Although the Brad Furman directed Parachute video just wrapped and fans will have to wait just a bit longer to see the finished product, us musical Parachuters at TheDeadbolt snagged a few exclusive behind the scenes pics of the Parachute guys.

The Time is right for Daybreakers given the growing popularity of Twilight, but are vampire lovers ready for vampire virus outbreak? The Twilight Saga media frenzy has been steadily chugging along toward the New Moon release date for November but another vampire film is jumping into the Twilight limelight, as Daybreakers hopes to take a bite out of the box-office jugular.

This is one of the rare times that the women’s top four seeds have advanced to the semi-finals at Wimbledon, as Serena and Venus face a potential meeting in the final since the sisters are in opposite halves of the draw. Serena will take on the sleeper pick of the tournament, Elena Dementieva while Venus faces another match-up with current world #1 Dinara Safina.

The Vampire Diaries stars a bevy of unknowns who are about to be catapulted into the TV limelight despite moderate success and visibility prior to being cast in The Vampire Diaries. Like Twilight, the series centers around the 17-year old Elena Gilbert who will be embodied by the Bulgarian born Canadian, Nina Dobrev. Playing the immediate love interest of Elena Gilbert is actor Paul Wesley as the enigmatic Stefan Salvatore who shares an inexplicable pull with Elena. Stefan's older brother, Damon (Ian Somerhalder) assumes the personification of the more familiar evil vampire stereotype who also has eyes for Elena, although Damon's initial intentions have a more bloodthirsty twist.
