There are new scenes in this that make me think this will be the greatest TV show of all time.
BLAM!

I think this looks fantastic. I am just curious as to whether or not it will appeal to enough of an audience to keep it going. Not for kids at all and most girls/women like the vampire craze and will overlook the relative gore because of the romance involved. That leaves a predominantly male audience AND they are going up against Sunday Night Football and HBO's Sunday night line up. That is one hell of a big bold move.

I will allow for the possibility that the premiere will be on Sunday just because it is Halloween and they move it to another night after that, but I've not read where this is the case. I hope this does well, but it has a serious mountain to climb.

I think it will do alright, AMC shows generally do pretty well, even the obscure ones.

Agreed, but Mad Men appeals to an entire generation and Breaking Bad by most everyone. This will be a niche but the time/date slot is the most concerning.
