I love the vampire genre movies and TV Shows!! I've always loved Dracula and was a big fan of the Saturday afternoon "Scary Movies" the ones with Bella Lagosi and Lon Cheney.
In the early 1990's there was a great series called "Forever Knight". It was a Canadian-born series and was GREAT!
Alas it only lasted 3 seasons. I've recently rediscovered them because Walmart had them out on DVD!!! WOOHOO!!
I remember the first time I saw Angel and how many similarities it had with "Forever Knight". And it also seems FK and Ats will have a lot of influence on the new show "Moonlight".
In FK:
Nick is a detective in the Police Dept. - Nick is a detective in "Moonlight" and Angel was a detective.
Nick drives an old '62 Cadillac - Angel drives an old Chevy ('62 Plymouthaccording to Nile!! Thanks Nile!!) I do believe - not sure what year. Not sure about Nick in Moonlight. - Nick drives a classic as well - waiting on make and model!!!!
Nick's partner in the second season is replaced with a woman whose father was also on the police dept. - Kate who is a detective in Angel has a father who was on the police force. Nick from Moonlight has a friendship/romance with a woman who is an Internet Police Investigator.
These are just some of the similarities between the 3 shows.
FK had an interesting way of referring back to Nicholas's past and his current cases.
Angel did that to a small extent but created it's on uniqueness by the team fighing demons and monsters which was probably influenced alot by Buffy.
I'm sure Moonlight will have a "twist" all it's own as well.
Does anyone remember "Forever Knight"? And what is it about these vampire detective shows that make us love to watch?
P.S. I posted about the "Moonlight" show here: https://www.buffyforums.net/showthread.php?t=1275
to keep down from getting into the new show. This is more for FK and it's generation of Vampire Detective shows.
