I thought you were my friend.
TVD is possible the worst vampire-related thing I ever saw. It completely encapsulates that ridiculous 150-yr old man hanging round with high school students (and why do they always have to attend high school? Ooooh, I'm 150 years old, immortal, one fo the undead, and have a history of killing, and have superpowers - but I think I'd better touch up on my algebra! Plus sleeping with girls 135 years younger than me doesn't make me a paedophile, honest!)
Plus the stupid magic ring which make shim able to walk in the day. And how he looks exactly like Angel.
Gah! I hate it all!
True Blood? Not too bad. American High School Vampires Mk. XVIII? I'd rather eat my own feet.
Granted, it's not marketed at adult men, but at 14 year old girls. But even so...
