I can obviously think of a gazillion reasons to love it, but 10 seems like a round number...
1. The action is so fast and amazing it makes you fear blinking in case you miss something...
2. Hello?? Damon Salvatore's in the show!!
3. Several truly gasp-worthy moments in EVERY episode.
4. The Originals!! Sure, I'm not their biggest fan, but they spruce the show up a lot and make it a lot more interesting.
5. Flashbacks. Whether its the Originals 1000 years ago or Damon and Elena meeting just 1 year ago, you can never get enough of the flashbacks...
6. The truly beautiful main cast... from Nina Dobrev to Ian Somerhalder, the show does not lack looks!
7. The truly drool-worthy guest stars... who was that guy who played Ben again?
8. Damon and Stefan's influences... Stefan had Lexi, Damon had Sage... if Sage hadn't been there, Damon wouldn't have been as thrilling... he would be a more grounded (if possible) version of Stefan.
9. The whole "Sun and Moon curse is fake" thing. Totally didn't see that coming.
10. The diary entries. Sure, they got written out not far through season 1, but that was what made the show up until that point... without them, the show would just be "The Vampire." No Diaries.

The next morning
Damon and Elena were lying asleep when someone rang the bell. Elena was fast asleep, so Damon sneaked out of bed and put on his pants from the day before.
“Hurry up, Damon. You don’t want her to bleed to death, do you?”
Damon groaned as he recognized Rebekah’s voice. He walked to the door and opened it and Katherine fell in his arms. She was bleeding from her neck and Damon looked up shocked at the blonde Original, who smirked at him.
“What happened to her?” Damon wanted to know.
“I happened” Elijah answered, stepping forward. “Can we come in?”
“No!” Damon said rude.
“I was merely being polite. Of course we can come in. This house is being hosted by vampires, whom cannot possible deny the admission to an Original. So, why don’t you step aside? We’ve got things to do, plans to make, wars to prepare” Elijah said as he walked past Damon.

The Hospital
The door of the examination room slammed open and doctor Fell looked up. “Would you mind waiting outside, please?”she said annoyed.
Tyler ignored her and walked straight to the bed.
“How are you feeling?” he asked worried.
“I’m okay” Veronica said. “Doctor Fell gave me a miracle drug. I’m as good as new”
Meredith shot her a warning glance.
“How did you know where I was?” Veronica wondered.
“Rachel told me” Tyler explained. “She told me Rebekah attacked you”
Veronica shook her head. “Actually it was Stefan” she said.
“Why would Stefan want to hurt you?” Tyler asked skeptic. “He doesn’t even know you”
“Neither does Rebekah” Veronica shrugged. “They know. They know that we’re going to try and take them down. We’re going to have to move fast”
“No, what you need to do is stay away from Rebekah” Tyler said. “I mean it, Ronnie, she’s dangerous”
“So am I” Veronica said sharp.
