  <body>&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;Have you missed a second of The CW's freshman hit &amp;quot;The Vampire Diaries&amp;quot;? If so, the network has a full week of programming just for you.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;In an amusing and relatively unprecedented step for a broadcast network, The CW is dedicating all 10 of its primetime programming hours for the week starting December 14 to a &amp;quot;Vampire Diaries&amp;quot; marathon.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Beginning on Monday, Dec. 14 and going through Friday, Dec. 18, The CW will show two hours of &amp;quot;The Vampire Diaries&amp;quot; per night, in order.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Episode 10 of &amp;quot;The Vampire Diaries,&amp;quot; titled &amp;quot;The Turning Point,&amp;quot; airs this Thursday (Nov. 19) and will be the show's last original episode in 2009.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;For the season, &amp;quot;The Vampire Diaries&amp;quot; ranks has The CW's most watched show and its top rated show in the 18-34 demographic. Among women 18-34, The CW's true targeted audience, &amp;quot;The Vampire Diaries&amp;quot; ranks behind only &amp;quot;Gossip Girl&amp;quot; for the season.&lt;/div&gt;</body>
