Matthew Vaughn in Talks for ‘Flash Gordon’ Reboot

Nina Dobrev’s Last Season on ‘The Vampire Diaries’
Yes, I watch The Vampire Diaries. That is, until the past two seasons. I still watch. Just not on a regular basis. It wasn’t grabbing my attention like it used to. Things kept going back to the status quo. And now its star Nina Dobrev is leaving at the end of the current season.

For the past month I’ve been obsessed with an old show entitled Twin Peaks.

The show ran from 1990 to 1991. I just finished the first episode of the second season.
