The CW’s new interactive game “CWingo” will debut tonight during the repeat broadcast of The Vampire Diaries.

KSiteTV’s Craig Byrne attended a demo of the game last night.

Here’s how it works: The game, which is hosted with Facebook integration, is set up like a Bingo card, and viewers and their friends to compete to see who fills the “Bingo card” first. For The Vampire Diaries, blocks would have titles made up of quotes, or things like “Full Moon,” “Crossbow Shot,” or “Vicki.” When you see those things, your block is full… and a row of blocks is CWingo!

Hopefully they’ll eventually take suggestions for blocks via Twitter… and of course, we’ll all have our own imaginary choices while watching. (Where’s “shirtless scene” for TVD? “Suspend disbelief” for 90210? Or “fake out, AGAIN” for Ringer?) While the launch is with Vampire Diaries now, expect it to extend to the rest of the CW line-up.

Here’s a video from The CW to describe it:
