Great ratings! Has the show been picked up for a full season yet?

Wow, awesome news about the ratings!

And yes Nala, it has been

nemapasara · 10-09-2009, 06:15 PM

Good.

I thought it did, but some people have been confusing me. But I knew I read it somewhere in this thread that it got picked up.

infallible love · 10-09-2009, 06:22 PM

Woot, number one again!

The CW ordered nine additional Vampire Diaries scripts a few weeks ago. That's not the same thing as an episode order. It just means they want to see more scripts and then decide whether the show gets a full season.

But there's nothing to be worried about, it's a foregone conclusion TVD will be picked up. The CW can't afford to cancel one of their best rated series.

chasing starlight · 10-09-2009, 10:18 PM

Yeah it hasn't been picked up officially. I don't think we'll have to worry about it not getting picked up though. It's a major hit for the CW. They'll want to hold onto it for awhile.

Great ratings news! The CW would have to be out of their minds not to pick up the show for a full season with how well it's performing. I think an official full season pick up is inevitable.
