You guys, the original sexy beast wasn’t Damon Salvatore.
Oh no, it all started with The Hoff (AKA David Hasselhoff), a being so truly magnificent the word “The” can’t remain uncapitalised in his presence.
Why does he look so familiar, you ask?
Well, he received equal billing with Pamela Anderson’s boobs on Baywatch!
Ever since Damon’s shower/bath were introduced so that Ian Sexyhalder could appear shirtless “organically” as opposed to “gratuitously” (oh, c’mon writers, just own it, you ain’t fooling anyone!), water has been a big theme on The Vampire Diaries lately.
So, I think it is time we went well and truly Off Like The Hoff in VD Sensory Overload… with a wet t-shirt/dripping wet competition.
Check your ovaries at the door.
I think plot happened in this episode, but can’t quite recall. My memory is selective like that.
Seriously, the only reason to watch Pirahna 3D is to see Steven R McQueen in wet and bloody t-shirts.
Or sometimes no shirts at all!
Thanks Paul Wesley Fans for this image! Finding Wet!Paul was hard, but these ladies delivered when I sent a help tweet 😉
And how could I have a water-themed VD Sensory Overload and NOT include this Stefan image?
Unfortunately, we don’t get to see what lies beneath the water in this scene, but here is a pictorial re-enactment as scene in my mind: 😉
Well, this one can technically be included because he is dripping wet… with sweat!
Who is your favourite?

The Vampire Diaries boys are better than caffeine when it comes to perking me up too!
The Hoff will always have a special place in my heart for being an early champion of hotboysdrippingwet!kink.

Ian Somerhalder in the fidora… YUM!!!!
March 7th, 2011 at 9:44 am
Whoo! Courtney! I didn’t know that you were a Vampire Diaries fan! Yippee 😉
Ian Somerhalder in a fidora and wet t-shirt truly is a many-splendoured thing.
Who is your favourite Vampire Diaries boy?
March 7th, 2011 at 3:51 pm
Well, you KNOW which one is MY favorite ;). Why settle for a stationary Wet Damon picture, when you can have a super seductive moving one!
Is that MANESSA from Gossip Girl the Pirahna 3D shot with Steven? OMG! Please tell me she gets eaten in the film! If so, and if Steven looks like he does in those pictures throughout the 90 minute runtime, I may actually have to rent this one . . .
Speaking of pseudo celebrities, isn’t that Kate Bosworth, in the last pic with Matt Davis? Interestingly enough, Kate Bosworth is currently dating Alex Skarsgard, who is responsible for my SECOND favorite moving shower pic! (I would post it here, but I’m not at my computer, and . . . well . . . it’s mildly pornographic.) I think you know the picture to which I’m referring. 😉

Seriously, all I knew about Pirahna 3D going in was that Steven R McQueen was in it; I didn’t even bother looking at the rest of the cast list. So I almost choked on my popcorn when Vanessa showed up! She was McQueen’s love interest in the movie, which made me vomit in my mouth a little. Ah well, he wore tight shirts/was shirtless around her the most, so I guess there is that.
That most definitely is Kate Bosworth. Speaking of Askars, have you seen the latest Waiting Sucks clip? We get Amnesia Eric! I’m sure you know the import of that statement. Yes, I know the shower gif you speak of (some Swedish movie/TV episode right?). I have a feeling that there will be a new shower scene for us to drool over soon. God, Alan Ball, if you give us this, I just might forgive you for all the Eric mistreatment we’ve suffered over the years. 😉

Mc Queen and Trevino, no competition on this site. Seeing the Piranha 3D pictures makes you wish they would make McQueen wear more tight clothes, or make a timeloop in the show so the character is older and we can enjoy such scenes more and more.
March 7th, 2011 at 8:31 pm
Well, if TVD’s producers want me to take Jeremy’s turning into a man arc seriously, he had better start shedding clothes or wearing tighter ones. Think of it as him emerging from his baby brother chrysalis 😉
Hmm, a timeloop is possible on a supernatural show, so I like the way that you are thinking!
March 8th, 2011 at 5:41 pm
Ups, “lost in translation”. 😀 A loop might not be such a bad idea, but I meant that they leave a bit more time betwen episodes and seasons, after all considered what was necessary just to seal some vamps in a tomb, who knows what was necessary for the sun-and-moon curse, in such a case it would fit to slow the pacing down.
Furthermore we would get away from boy and girl and settle for man and woman 😉
And for Jeremy: we all noticed pretty fast how tall and broad-sholdered he is so the baby brother has to go. Actually in that case it would really be good if he would join team wolf, team vampire would probably only create a pretty whatever vamp. But lets face it, so far the wolves could just as well be eliminated from the show (except for one to be sacrificed, but I am sure Klaus already has one or two).

I hope that the werewolf arc was really just there to set up Tyler’s future character growth and complications with Caroline. Because honestly, TVD’s producers haven’t really integrated the werewolves with the main plot. It is like they just wanted to have a Big Bad for a third of the season and that was it.
It doesn’t mean EVERY wolf needs to be eradicated from the series. For example, one Oz was more than enough for me on Buffy!
I really would love if Matt AND Jeremy both became werewolves. Could you imagine how it would tear the main group apart if three regulars were wolves?
March 9th, 2011 at 5:14 pm
What I am also missing, but not just here but in general with vampires in most of the shows, is someone to make them pause on an individual scale. You know someone who could beat them up without exploiting their special weaknesses or who could use the same resources.
Your last thought has potential in my eyes. Of course the question would have to be answered how to spread it and explaining why there are supposedly so few werewolves (so far there was no hint that it was different), of course the magical rings could play a part (as long as the wearer doesn’t get dismembered he could “survive”). In such a scenario the sun-and-moon curse might be passed down via bloodline and a bitten werewolf might fall through the grid (saliva is not technically blood) in such a case it would answer what would happen if the curse doesn’t exist anymore.
From the perspective of group dynamic I think it would really drive an edge between the characters, especially with Damon around and our favorite bitch Katherine would have extra pleasure: getting rid of two Gilberts in one strike and get pardoned.

Wet! Shirtless! Boys!!!

Hehe! Brings a whole new meaning to the term “Splish! Splash!”
