The 24+ Most Important Vampire TV Shows Ever, Ranked by IndieWire

"IndieWire has dusted off the TV crypt to unearth a ranker of our favorite fangs. Yes, we know there's a lot at stake here. Some rules for this list: At least one of the series regulars has to be a vampire. Also, no kids shows, no animation, no foreign language shows (sorry, South Korea — wow, you guys like vampires), and no miniseries/anthology series. Here are the criteria used to evaluate these shows: General quality of execution, as well as innovation as it comes to exploring the nature of vampirism. This doesn't specifically mean adherence to any particular pre-established or traditional mythology, but instead originality in terms of using vampire tropes to service the storytelling. Watching a lot of shows about vampires at once highlights the tropes that haunt the genre — the way these stories are rich with themes of ostracization, romance, and death. It also highlights how the shows which are very good at tackling the subject matter are great…But a lot struggle." - indiewire.com
