Wendy: As hot as angry Damon is on The Vampire Diaries, I have a soft spot for good Damon. Tell me he chills out in upcoming episodes.

Well, he’s going to try. Ian Somerhalder promises us that much. “He’s trying his damndest to keep it together,” he tells us. At least Damon knows he’s miserable. So, that’s step one, right?

Is there hope for Damon and Elena on Vampire Diaries? — Carla
NATALIE: "In the lifetime of the series, every fan who 'ships either side of the triangle will have moments of hope," executive producer Julie Plec says. Does that mean we should stop asking? Well...

The Vampire Diaries Episode 2.14 "Crying Wolf" Jeremy And Bonnie Heat Up

EW has snagged an interview with Elena's little brother from "The Vampire Diaries", Jeremy Gilbert. As most fans know Jeremy is played by Steven R. McQueen. McQueen spoils about how things will be heating up between his character and Bonnie this week.

The extended promo for this Thursday’s episode of The Vampire Diaries shows werewolves both interrupting Elena’s and Stefan’s ill-timed romantic getaway and torturing Damon. What it doesn’t show: We may finally see Jeremy (Steven R. McQueen) and Bonnie (Kat Graham) kiss. “Things definitely start to heat up and they start becoming a little more involved,” McQueen tells EW. (Even though we saw them walk away from Jonas last week arm-and-arm, they aren’t yet together, he says. We didn’t miss an off-screen hook up.) Told that Kevin Williamson has teased that we’ll see a kiss “sooner rather than later,” McQueen still plays coy when asked if this is, in fact, the hour. “I would watch this next episode and see,” he says. Assuming he’s already filmed the kiss to air at some point, we asked him to describe the staging. “If this hypothetical kiss happened,” he says, “I might have just grabbed her and gone for it. I don’t know.” (Knowing that Jeremy trying to kiss Bonnie at the end of the December cliffhanger was McQueen feeling the moment and improvising, we’d like to believe this.)

The Vampire Diaries Spoilers Ian Somerhalder Dishes On His New Distraction, The Big Showdown And Klaus

Season 2 of "The Vampire Diaries" has turned Mystic Falls into a supernatural mecca with a werewolf~vampire showdown on the horizon. Ian Somerhalder~Damon Salvatore spoiled to Just Jared about his new lady love, the growing tension in the supernatural world and Klaus.

JJ: So there’s a new lady in Damon’s life, a reporter named Andie Star. What can you say about her?
IS: Andie’s awesome. She’s hot, quick, quirky, and witty. Even under compulsion she doesn’t give Damon sh–. What she does is she fires back at him as quickly as he fires off to her, and what’s cute about it is that he has this funny little answer yet he ties her scarf around her neck so no one can see. It’s just awesome. I love the dynamic that they created with her and they’re sort of this little team. She’s helping him execute his plans and they’re really just an unlikely team.

JJ: And who’s playing her?
IS:Her name is Dawn Olivieri. She’s a good friend of mine and I’ve known her for years and I was stoked when I heard that she was coming [to Vampire Diaries]. I don’t know how long we can keep her because she’s just got cast opposite Don Cheadle [in House of Lies] so I don’t think we get to keep her, but it’s bad for Damon and great for her.

JJ: Executive producer Julie Plec teased, “We have this impending ritual, the sacrifice that will break the curse of the sun and the moon — that’s where we’ll end our season”. Can you talk or hint a little bit about that?
IS: It’s funny because we get our scripts just a couple of days before. I know that there’s going to be a pretty sizable showdown between the werewolves and vampires and I can’t imagine Klaus not showing up after all this talk. So I don’t know, I can only imagine the way I see things going so there will be a big showdown, its a problem. Damon forged these relationships, found himself caring in places and times when its very intermediate, but I think protecting Elena and his home from one entity that’s more powerful or could possibly kill him is enough. Protecting her too is very difficult and it’s wearing on him and the couple is starting feel emotional and start not being able to understand how to grapple with all this emotion, it’s really tough.

The Vampire Diaries Spoilers Lauren Cohan Dishes About Her Death Bed Heart to Heart With Elena

EW had an interesting and revealing chat with Lauren Cohan about her role as Rose on "The Vampire Diaries" and her exit. She gives an in depth recap of her death bed heart-to-heart with Elena, including; What happened to the line that was in the promo? You know, When Rose told Elena it was okay to love both Salvatore brothers.

We asked Cohan about that conversation between Rose and Elena that was in the promo but not in the actual episode — specifically that line in which Rose told Elena it was okay to love both Salvatore brothers. She says they shot a bunch of stuff that she assumes was trimmed for time, including “a deranged rampage through the parking lot, which really felt like the peak of the dementia” in between Rose killing the janitor and the car couple, as well as that revealing portion of her chat with Elena. “I loved that piece between Rose and Elena because I think Rose looked at Elena like a younger sister in a way, and it really was okay that Elena loves different things in both of these men. Being conflicted doesn’t make her a bad person. It was almost like Rose needed to tell her to not be so hard on herself and to not give up,” she says. “It was really cute because Elena tried to cover the fact that she does love them both in a way. That’s when Rose kinda pushed her to say it. [She's saying] ‘Come on. Just admit it. You don’t have to feel bad about it,’ in the same breath as, ‘Own who you are. It’s okay to let them fight for you. It’s okay to want to live. And it’s okay to be conflicted. Keep going.’”

Vampire Diaries Season 2 Spoilers Damon's Demons And What It Means For Elena

I have even more spoilery goodness to share about "The Vampire Diaries". According to Zap2it, the demons that have surfaced for Damon are only the beginning of his journey and Elena will play a huge part in how that journey plays out. EP Julie Plec also hints at what the impact of Stefan's darker side will have on his relationship with Elena.

The struggle, now, is that Damon has to watch while Elena's (Nina Dobrev) affections are directed toward Stefan (Paul Wesley). "He doesn't have Elena, and he doesn't want to be a hero. When things happen that make him look in the mirror and not recognize himself, he's going to go back in search of that person that he's been for the last 145 years. Unfortunately, that means reverting to some old habits that kind of defined him for a very long time."

When "The Vampire Diaries" writers' room first broke the story for the episode in which Rose dies, the hour had a very different ending. "We had written that entire script, and we had ended Damon's journey on that hug with Elena. We were done with the script and we were moving forward, and somebody said, have we taken Damon to too emotional of a place? He's sad, and he's upset, and he's struggling with dealing with his feelings," Plec says.

The writers realized that Damon's response to the overwhelming emotion of losing Rose and having a breakthrough moment with Elena would send him over the edge. "The idea came up that maybe he should just completely regress as a knee-jerk response to having too many emotions," Plec says." That changed everything."

And thus, Damon wandered drunkenly into the road, where he confessed his desire to be human again to a stranger -- and then killed her, just because he could. It's something Damon hasn't done in all season.

"We just sort of added it in," Plec says. "Kevin [Williamson] wrote his speech at the end, which was just brilliance in action. It changed everything. It really reinvigorated all of us for that character because Damon is all about how deliciously bad he can be and how epically good he can be, and how the two are always at odds with each other."

"It's no secret that having to play emotional Damon makes Ian really uncomfortable as a person, as an actor," Plec says. "It's hard, because you have to tap into your own emotional stuff, and now we keep challenging him. We're going to keep making him dig deeper and deeper."

Right now, Elena is blissfully ignorant of Damon's new taste for human blood straight from the source, but when she sees Damon with Andie (Dawn Olivieri) she's not going to let her opinion go unspoken.

"Damon's continued association with Andie will start to make Elena look at him and wonder. It's obvious that Damon is 'Carolining' Andie," Plec says. "So once Elena kind of figures that out and has time to have a heart to heart with Damon, it's certainly something that she's going to discuss with him. He's kind of exploiting this woman and our girl Elena is not going to be so down with that."

The Vampire Diaries Spoilers Matt Feels The Spotlight

Zap2it's Carina MacKenzie had the pleasure of speaking with EP Julie Plec. Julie spoiled about the Matt's big moment and the possibility of Matt and Caroline rekindling their relationship. She also dishes about the mounting romantic tension between Caroline and Tyler.

In case we haven't made it abundantly clear, we've been jonesing for a good Matt story line... so we're psyched to hear that Plec has some very good news for us.

"We're about to dive deep into Matt-world," she confirms.

Caroline may have to answer some questions... finally.

"Matt's been kind of busing tables on the sidelines for a good portion of this season, trying to understand what's going on in this non-relationship with this girl that he cares about but doesn't understand," Plec says. "We're about to really heat that up and have him start asking a lot more questions. He's really trying to get to the bottom of Caroline's feelings for him and where he wants to them to be as a couple."

Now that Tyler's in the doghouse, Matt and Caroline may have another chance at a real relationship. "In the last episode before we go away for hiatus, there's a really great Matt and Caroline moment that I think will make you very happy," Plec says.

Of course, with "The Vampire Diaries," things are never quite that easy. Keep an eye out for a powerful scene between Matt and Tyler in Thursday's Feb. 10 episode, "Crying Wolf." The stakes in this love triangle have definitely been raised.
