I'm as I stand here 1:27looking like a cross between johnnie Reese

Myers and Jim Morrison 1:32trying to look like henry the eighth up

I think 1:3619 I think me rephrase that: I know

1:39this season feels a lot more like the first season of the show

1:43my go back and watch the first season the show I and transported back to his

1:47really phenomenal experience where the storytelling was just

1:53we're flying by the seat of our pants everyday every observer take

1:57and yielded really interesting product 2:01I'm and this and it was all of our favorites

I think 2:05safer Paul pretty much good stuff and

just so heady 2:09in that season but we're going back to

that 2:13this year and a writing team is just on

it 2:16and our production team in our both

2:20director photography that we have both those guys are so dollar

2:23its its dark again telling story with not just

2:26its words but would like music in were 2:31I think this is really going to be one

of the best seasons show 2:34and I'm great possibilities you know it's

not just 2:37just definite just a minute Stephens Silas

2:41Catherine this now there's a lot there's a lot of dynamic and I'm excited about

2:46I me I may sound subdues because I've been up since

2:5055 ornament I'm excited about what 2:54your favor bach part about jim is that

what your favorite bar 2:59go was already inside ever I'm not gonna

tell you that 3:03I with my favorite part yeah I'll tell

you want to be cut 3:07okay up my favorite part about playing

3:11salad bar as a character everybody else gonna play a double game here isn't

3:15Paul getting a place I was this season what's your favorite part about playing

3:20David probably wanna more complex characters in the show

3:24Damon is a blast 3:27even when Damon is pining in being a whiny

little baby 3:32he still a blast I would change it

3:38for the world and I i wouldnt I wouldn't change

3:41I would change very much about the man very fortunate to be able to play this

3:45this guy he's a while the he's a while the complex guy

3:50I'm he thinks a lot 3:54that Damon and but he also

3:57getting over Katherine going all these places you know the man is a

4:01experience immense amount of pain in his life in you

4:04we all use humor is abandoned the medicine for pain and Damon is no

4:08exception to that rule 4:09uses it not so smart him and he uses a

lot 4:12and so it makes and is really fun makes

him you know 4:16the minutes in the game is the guy that

again you know I've said this before but 4:21it really something about them is the

guy 4:23with the same look on his face when we

say in Canada trio ripping your for your 4:27he's that guy you know he can see them

as one and the same 4:31same thing it's Sunday morning

4:34disc you know tree Haven rip your face off as just a min

4:38and he loves with reckless abandon 4:42fierce loyalty how the

4:45loyal brother my boyfriend is a boil 4:49he's just a while and I think there's

something to be said for 4:54screw you over in a heartbeat if he needs

to but it would be for someone he 4:57loves

4:59not because oh I want that car house that 5:02do it I love love everything he does lots

I think that 5:08its cool I like that about I love about

I'm 5:11like lover what parts and same DC

5:15yourself or are you completely unlike know I'm a lot like Damon

5:20or if rephrase that they meant a lot like me I'm

5:25now it goes both ways i mean you know look

5:28art imitates life in ways it's just crazy 5:31in the writers very down and who we are

5:35how we operate what they want us farms characterize but

5:38I know a lot about what it's like to be alone was liked by with my brother and I

5:44was like to be in love and it's like to be in pain

5:46know what it's like to have fun or disliked it have to find the bright side

5:50of things 5:51a lot like them I'm I don't like

5:55night killing people anymore personally like damon does

5:59for there are a lot of similarities 6:04is a lot of congruence model consistency

6:07where I am in my life with a man's life is like on screen and vice versa

6:13a lot 6:17help and so it makes for very interesting

ride 6:21mean these writers know us better than

we know ourselves sometimes so 6:25sometimes they give us last sometimes

a stick it to us but either way 6:29its a lot of times it's cathartic its

funny sometimes 6:34set and the raucous right much like

6:37at do you think name relationship with Elena

6:41help or I think she's taught him 6:46to grow as a living breathing

6:51loving being I think his love for her so we got him in the lineup

6:55bad choices or bad decisions 6:59but he does everything out love it's not

it could be deemed too selfish 7:04but he wants he wants the best for her

while over there 7:09so he thinks he knows everything but what

he's doing just let her grow 7:13and maker

7:16decision stakes times I 7:21we've asked everybody what they draw fan

both 7:25to the van and everybody has that Ian
