There seems to be a feeling we need Klaus to be in 'The Vampire Diaries,' surely and partially because of the Klaus and Caroline dynamic, but many people love the character. They want to see more of the character, but people really have a tendency to fear the unknown.

'The Vampire Diaries' is a great show, but it's on the verge of being overcrowded. The amount of characters, a lot of them don't get screen time because there's so much to put in, and it has to center around the love triangle.

We're trying keep 'The Originals' in the same world as 'The Vampire Diaries.'

Dinner and a movie is pretty great.

Tarsem Singh was such a fantastic director.
