Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This series is a wonderful example of type. The caveats are that the viewer must like the subject (vampires and other Gothic stuff)and "old" presentations. It's nice because the language is inoffensive as are the actions of the characters (unless one is offended by the subject-matter, in which case, one isn't watching it anyway). The story is compelling, and one is drawn to the characters. For myself, it was the only "soap opera" I have ever watched - and I did, on a regular basis. I felt deprived if I had to miss an episode, and I taped them all. It is a thoroughly engaging series.
