It was a great show that was canceled before it's time. It gave a new twist to the usual tried and true whiny vampires, Henry had learned to live with what he was and embraced it. This show does well because the chemistry between the leads is fantastic. The show was funny, camp, and dramatic when it had to be. Early on in the show we here in the states heard that when it premiered in Canada that women audibly gasped when they first saw Henry, that's good enough for me. lol. If I hadn't seen it before that would have certainly piqued my curiosity. The actors were so good at what they were doing with the characters they made us believe they were indeed who they were acting to be. The nicest surprise was Kyle Schmid, he was only 22 when he started filming, yet he made us all believe he was a 450 year-old vampire, he was that good! I don't recall any other show that I've EVER watched that I got so addicted to that I would have gone to the trouble of writing postcards, letters, call the network,etc. just to try to save it. If you don't buy but one DVD this year, buy this one. You'll find it's well worth your money.
