OK, I agree: TV-show drinking games can be fun. Once in a while. If you're like me, who considers a glass of wine getting wild 'n' crazy, you can quickly end up a lot more inebriated than you might have expected.
So...why not try a workout game instead? Nina Dobrev recently discovered a Vampire Diaries workout game, and she posted it with a message to her WhoSay account: "Hahaha @julieplec if we did this every Thursday we'd be ripped! #TVD"
Wanna play? Here's the workout:
