NBC is putting a new spin on Dracula with their new show; it’s taking Bram Stoker’s Dracula and putting him in 1890s London, posing as an American entrepreneur named Allen Grayson. He intends to carry out revenge against those who ruined his life centuries ago, while bringing “modern science” to the Victorian era. But there’s one problem: Mina is reincarnated as a medical student named . . . you guessed it! Mina. So obviously romance blooms and puts a damper on Grayson’s plans.

Possible The Vampire Diaries Spinoff
The Vampire Diaries is a surprisingly brilliant show on the CW. Yes, it starts off as what you’d expect from the name, but after around seven episodes, it becomes something much more.
