Remy- Kindred: The Embraced
I REALLY dug this show, which was about warring vampire factions surviving in a modern world. What I liked about Kindred: The Embraced was how each clan of vampires was different, but hated each other for the same (trite) reasons we humans all hate one another. In other words, they were at war over slightly different beliefs. It had everything that made vampires cool. Sex, blood, and even those weird, bald vampires that are all feral that you saw a lot post Blade II.
Why did it not survive: It was a vampire drama LONG before vampire dramas were cool (think pre Twilight and True Blood, to which I say “ugghhh” in the most drawn out way as possible) and was trying to survive in a time when Fox was owning the air waves with late night soap operas about adults who just wanna bang.
In other words, it was way ahead of its time.
