The Vampire Diaries Spoilers – Season 3 – Interview with Kevin Williamson

AX: You said you know where this is all going. How many seasons do you think you need for VAMPIRE DIARIES to get to where it’s going?
WILLIAMSON: We could wrap this thing up in six.
AX: Do you have any plan to accelerate it if you have to?
WILLIAMSON: Yes. We have no problem pacing ourselves. We’ll pace it up if we have to.
AX: By the same token, could you extend it past what you currently have planned?
WILLIAMSON: We can extend it with no problems, but we know that if we needed an endgame by, say, Season Six, we could land. We could also extend.
