Reginald the Vampire

So the concept of this show is good and i do like the characters but the show is flawed. The pacing of the show is badly executed. A lot of episodes spend too much time on moments that should be cut in half, focusing on silly subplots that meander. The dialogue can also be stiff which i suspect may be someone behind the camera was very rigid in not letting the actors deviate from what is on the page. So certain scenes come off as awkward and robotic.

But there are some funny bits . The way its filmed is very unique. There are a lot colors that make it look like a comic book. The actors are very good. So everyone is perfectly cast. The show is funny and the plots are interesting, I just wish they would tighten it up. So the show is good and has potential. I just hope next season they can fix the mistakes they made.

I do not understand half of these reviews ripping this show apart. It is a dumb quirky show and I have a hard time believing it's trying to be anything other than just that. It's really just a show about a Reginald learning to be a vampire and an adult at the same time. The acting in the show is not any game changing masterpiece and that's okay. It's funny and easy to watch on a rainy day while you do chores or little hobbies. The story line is interesting but easy to digest there's a little horror but it's all just a little quirky. These days people either want sitcoms or thought provoking shows that feel like movies. What happened to all the shows in the middle? I miss just enjoying lighthearted shows.

First, I read all the reviews, and they are underwhelming, to be honest. So I thought what a shame, I really like shows about vampires... Then I thought, to hell with it, why not try it out myself. So I watched the first episode and liked it, and then all the 7 episodes, which are out right now. And I don't regret a thing!

The characters are likeable, and the show doesn't bore me like most do nowadays, it's quite fun to watch. I don't get where all the hate comes from, I haven't even noticed any obvious and annoying agenda moments, which is good in my book.

Overall, I get bored easily, and this show does entertain me enough for me to write this review to dissuade others from overlooking Reginald's story! Of course, it's not perfect, but what is? The most important thing is, if you enjoy it or not.

The idea and series had so much potential. So did the actor. But it was all let down by very lackluster writing.

Traditionally, vampires were homeless stumbling filthy creatures who hid in the shadows. But Bela Lugosi was such a great commanding actor we all think of vampires as wearing tuxedos and capes.

Instead of more realistic portrayals, Hollywood has gotten more fantasy filled. Vampires got more impossibly suave and cool, with powers like a superhero, and die in explosions or gushers of blood.

So going the opposite way was long overdue. This show is claiming to be a comedy. But I didn't laugh even once.

There's not much action. Instead we get a slow and not very good drama about a guy picked on for his weight.

Its a about a new vampire. He's very special because he's not like the others. He's fat. Yes. Vampires are like the aryan race. Perfect in any way and don't allow anything else. And they also act like that in many ways. Thats a weird choice for them. Then you got politics... vampire politics. Great stuff... not! They you got some kind of scooby gang. Almost all characters are gay or bi. Only two are straight as far as i remember. Also a bit over the top maybe? Some elements are supposed to be scary, most is comedy. And our hero seems to be a really special kind of vampire in many ways. Maybe a little too special? I don't want to spoil anything but this show feels like they asked AI to create a modern vampire show with aryan vampires for an modern diverse audience and somehow make them become heros instead of villains. So at times i relly feel like wtf? Thats stupid! And then i'm entertained again. Not a great show. Not totally bad. Its mediocre and has a certain target audience. I would be surprised if this show will have more than 2 or 3 seasons.
