You'd think, with 171 episodes to choose from, it would be hard forVampire Diariesstars Paul Wesley (who plays Stefan Salvatore) and Ian Somerhalder (Damon Salvatore) to pick a favorite.

Nope.

Like their vampires who have the same No. 1 girl, the actors have the same "favorite episode ever," which they revealed at a screening in Beverly Hills Wednesday, ahead of their show's series finale next week.

Drum roll... It's Season 1's "Lost Girls."

The stars' favorite 45-minutes of Vampire Diariesincludes Stefan's explanation to Elena (Nina Dobrev) of how he became a vampire, flashbacks to the Civil War when the Salvatore brothers both fell for Katherine (also Dobrev)and Elena's emotional break up with Stefan.

"Go back and watch 'Lost Girls.' It's a really phenomenally-crafted episode of television,"says Somerhalder. "It might be a teen vampire soap, but that one was special."

Somerhalder and Wesley said they watched the episode together at Wesley's place in Atlanta."That's when we were like 'Oh (crap),' this show's pretty good," Wesley agrees. He adds that the show was really in its prime in its first two seasons, when it was "most interesting, because it was so new."

But, even though some later episodes since then haven't been as "oh my God"-good, according to Wesley, the show has continued for eight seasons, all leading up to Fridays penultimate episode that's centered around the wedding of Stefanand Caroline (Candice King).

These nuptialsshould please die-hard fans of the supernatural series, because they've been waiting for Caroline to have a June wedding since the pilot aired eight years ago, when she said this about her then-crush, Stefan:

He lives with his uncle up at the old Salvatore boarding house, he hasnt lived here since he was a kid, military family so they moved around a lot, hes a gemini and his favorite color is blue were planning a June wedding.

The Vampire Diariesairs Friday, 8 p.m. ET/PT, on the CW.
