The Vampire Diaries 6.01 Photos: Coping with Loss

Yes, Tyler appears to be taking out his anger on the Wonder Twin, not unlike Elena is seen doing in the first Season 6 trailer. (Luke and Liv must have a pretty good reason to be sticking around, considering all the abuse they're facing.)

Other highlights in the new Season 6 gallery include:

* Matt rocking what could be a Mystic Falls Police Dept. t-shirt of some sort. (Sorry, I know you were hoping there wouldn't be a shirt at all, but this is still exciting.)

* Alaric getting his flirt on with Elena's medical mentor Jo, played by Hit the Floors Jodi Lyn O'Keefe.

* Caroline having (I assume) a tense conversation with Alaric about the current state of the group, particularly Elena and Jeremy's downward spirals.

What do you make of the first photos from The Vampire Diaries Season 6?

Tyler has serious anger issues in first photos from 'Vampire Diaries' season 6

But in the first photos from the season 6 premiere, titled "Fresh Starts and Second Chances," the focus is on the boys of Mystic Falls, namely Alaric, who has found himself as both a vampire and a college professor. His first order of business? Stopping Tyler from reliving his mistakes of season 1. Only, instead of using his werewolf temper to beat up Jeremy at a bonfire, Tyler seems to get into a fight with a blonde at a football tailgate. And instead of Stefan stepping in to save the day, Alaric gets to be the responsible one to keep Tyler from re-triggering the curse. Oh, how times have changed.

As for Matty Blue Blue? He's looking as human as ever back in Mystic Falls.
