The Vampire Diaries (2009-2017), based on L.J. Smith's series of books, is about the small town of Mystic Falls. The background is simple: Girl has vampire boyfriend. Vampire boyfriend has snarky vampire brother. Some friends with superpowers, and some friends without. VD started off slow, but by the middle of the first season it suddenly got good--and before I knew it, I was hooked.
