The New Vampire Diaries Billboards Urge Fans to "Catch VD"

The latest Vampire Diaries Billboards ask viewers to ‘Catch VD.’ The covert campaign is running to promote the return of the show at the end of this month. Whether you think the ads are catchy or in bad taste, they certainly have people talking about the CW series.

Sandwiched between posters for The Disney Store and Mamma Mia in New York’s Time Square, the slogan simply stands for Vampire Diaries.

In my humble opinion, the new Vampire Dairies Billboards are rather catchy.
