When I found season 1 and 2 of Young Dracula at the Library I said: "wow! this is going to be so cool!" So I got it straight away! And when I was in the car I was determined to see it.So I got home very quickly!!!When I was watching season 1 I found it very interesting!And I always say: Never judge a DVD/book by its cover!(Even though I loved the cover)! And then I watched season 2 and "the chosen one"(Vlad)Makes it very interesting!And from then on it was my favorite movie! I was so determined to find season 3 in the Library! And after 2 weeks I found it!It was SO interesting!I request you should watch it !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sophie (7 years old)
The first three seasons are a campy and fun family-friendly comedy similar to American TV series' The Munsters and The Addams Family. The show is enjoyable if it is not taken seriously. There are silly plots and odd camera angles.
After a short hiatus, the show returned in season four with a much darker and serious approach. The cast of supporting characters got much more intriguing in the final two seasons. Which approach is better depends on one's personal preference, but both are well done.
One thing all five seasons have in common is the unfortunate sexist approach to female characters, especially Clare Thomas's Ingrid. She is constantly denigrated specifically for being "a girl." This might have started off as a running joke, but it became a primary theme of the show.

a nice comedy series about a too old subject. smart, amusing, reflecting cultural references and using the long tradition about the exotic stranger who looks be the ordinary citizen, it is a pretty entertainment and that virtue is not small. because, in a society who transforms the vampires in a cool trend, this children series represents a kind of oasis , for the fine irony, for the alternative story and for the reflection of the needs and expectations of young Dracula in middle of his strange family. a film adapted to young public with humor and the spirit of old good comedy spirit. and that fact is the good point. short, a real good series.for entire family, about a classic theme in new terms, with a clever script and good acting.
This is on of the only shows I watched as a child which I still rewatch to this day. It's funny, gothic, and campy in a similar way to the Addams family.
One of my early alternative style influences, I'm now 23 and it's one of my favourite vampire shows/films. I have bonded with so many people over the nostalgia of this series.
Great to show to a young alternative/ gothic person. Also a great introduction to the many versions of Dracula as it is so child friendly yet uses characters and names from the bram stokers Dracula .
Highly recommend to anyone young and old. It will be a great show to one day watch with my future children.

This is a really wild and wacky, OK its on kids TV but it is brill. I got around to watching it when I was ill but now I just have to record it each week. The cast is all really good from the kid actors to the adults, definitely including the 600 year old Count (who is pretty damn yummy). But the whole thing is just so great to watch
and its funny. Really nice characterisation by the actors all in all it's more or less perfect, apart from when they show it

BBC is putting out some good stuff at the moment and some absolute dross but why the heck doesn't this sort of quality get some sort of push into the schedule or at least some mention have they ever heard of cult following?
