Yeah I laughed too. 
Ummmm, yeah. Ok then.
no thanks.
I think NBC might be eying the international market with that idea, but they probably can't put enough nudity and sex in it. Better to make it for cable.
My bet is that it will be a much-tamer True Blood, with lots of gorgeous costumes and location shooting, with soapiness making up for the lack of graphic sex. Doesn't really seem like the kind of thing broadcast in particular can do well.
Re: Talk about vampires...
In all seriousness, maybe a few years ago when the whole vampire thing was just starting to ramp up... Something like this would have been a natural fit and done right, would have been a hundred times better than the "Vampire Diaries."
But I think it's played out by now (thankfully).. With True Blood still doing well in the ratings and the (gack) continued success of the Twilight movies, we're getting plenty of what we want. Once TB and Twilight are done, I hope they'll let the genre rest for a while.

But vampires never rest. They just keep rising from their graves . . . for all eternity.
That's kind of their thing.

Four Underworld novels wasn't enough? Or Tomorrow Sucks? Or The Black Shore? Or that Morbius story I did for Spider-Man years ago? Or my infamous bulemic vampire story?
Seriously, I'm getting itchy to write another vampire book. And those would be very fun projects. (I wouldn't mind tackling Dark Shadows or the Creature Commandoes either.)
