Um, yeah. No contest. Damon.
The actor they chose for Stefan is so -- wtf, seriously, like anyone is supposed to pick this guy over Ian Somerhalder? Ridiculous. Like, going in I already had a bias because I loved Ian on Lost and totally shipped him and Shannon, but I thought Stefan was at least going to be attractive enough to make me a little torn. Instead, they chose this caveman brow dude to compete with Ian? Or rather, to be the "good guy" to Ian's "bad guy"? I just don't understand the casting at ALL. (My other bias, of course, is that I tend to like the edgy guy, not the wussy "I don't eat humans" guy, hence why I liked Spike over Angel. However, if the roles here were reversed, I wouldn't find Damon attractive because that actor is simply not attractive! At all!)
Also, the books are starting to come back to me a little. I remember being into Stefan (who, in my head, is actually attractive) until Damon showed up, and then it was like, who is this dangerously alluring character?! I don't, however, remember who Elena ends up with, if anyone.
My only issue with the show so far is that it's such a typical CW show, where everyone looks all plasticky-pretty. It's like Gossip Girl with vampires.
