Sample Answer
I really enjoy watching films and TV shows and I recently finished "The Vampire Diaries" and thats the show that I'm going to talk about now.The show is about the romance between Elena, a normal girl with Stefan, a vampire, and Damon, Stefan's brother. The story is a love triangle between those three characters. The main topic is love but it also have mistery and the characters have to solve a lot of problems related with the supernatural world.
The show excells in building atmosphere and you can really feel as if you are there In the show with monsters like witches, werewolves, and vampires.
I really enjoyed that show because I love how the story evolved from the first season to the last one. I also love the long shows and The Vampire Diaries have eight season with 22 episodes each season, and each episode is 43 minutes long.I recommend this show if you like love stories and the mistery. I also recommend it if you watched and enjoyed the "Twilight" movies because it has a similar topic. I hope you enjoy that show as much as I did."
