I definitely liked the first few of these. Dark, traditional vampires. These were definitely entertaining and I go back to the first few every now and then.

No the Igors are your Frankenstein-like monsters - except on the discworld they are wonderful servants and surgeons. Pratchett has a number of Vampires/Vampyres: See Carpe Jugulum - you'll love'em!

I liked the movie, never tried the TV show.

That's all right. No one's perfect

The frenzy does all get a bit much - but it goes both ways. There are so many out there shouting out to the actors to "bite me", that others feel compelled to espouse how poor the writing is (etc etc) ... whereas for any normal situation people would be quite happy to ignore whatever it was didn't suit their tastes.
