Two Words:
Just Don't.
Further Words:
I haven't seen Twilight so I can't comment on that, however at a guess I'd say this is the TV equivalent. I made the mistake of thinking 'I'll give this a shot' on the basis that I like True Blood, plus Ian Somerhalder from Lost was in it and I didn't think he was terrible actor (although he's hampered by having stupidly blue eyes).
I was soo wrong (Newsflash - yes Kad can be wrong). If watching a bunch of photogenic pretties moping about bemoaning their lives (though a couple I guess have legitimate concerns) is your thing then this is the show for you, otherwise avoid. It's in exactly the same ballpark as every other teen drama, just featuring a couple of 100+ year old vampires who can't seem to get over their baggage ('I still love her even though she's dead, and its clearly all your fault!!' 'Hah, I'm evil and I'm going to kick over your sand castles for eternity because I can hahaha!!'). Why on earth despite looking about 20 someone that old would want to sit in history lessons, do paper work and hang out at college parties with self obsessed teens beyond looking for easy pickings is a mystery (why not just skip to 3 given you can hypnotize people apparently), one that personally I don't recommend anyone bother wasting their time on trying to decipher (Hint: Dead girl in old photo looks like lead actress..aww soo sweet.).
