The always dynamic Ian Somerhalder talks about what is in store for his character, Damon, and the impact of Catherine’s return on the brothers Salvatore in the sophomore season of THE VAMPIRE DIARIES on The CW.  And he adds a shout out to his favorite pizza place, too.

Oh, and I promise to work on getting better audio in the future!
