Editor’s note: this list was originally published in October 2022. It has since been updated with new selections.
If horror’s limitless capacity for remakes, re-imaginings, and spinoffs teaches us anything, it’s that our nightmares never really change. Since before “Nosferatu” darkened the silent film scene in 1922 — heck, even before Bram Stoker terrified readers with “Dracula” in 1897 — vampires have transfixed audiences with their chilling blend of romance and menace. Movies like “Twilight” and “Interview with the Vampire” are memorable for weaving epic undead dramas for the big screen, but vampire sagas have arguably seen more creative permutations on TV, with whole casts of blood-sucking stars appearing in shows like “True Blood” and “Castlevania.”
The best vampire TV shows examine the archetypal underpinnings of the gothic-infused subgenre by referencing them in unexpected ways. Classic situational comedies like “Dark Shadows” make entertaining light of garlic, coffins, and the (pun intended) stakes of it all.

10 years ago, the acclaimed horror-romance series True Blood, which was based on the Southern Vampire Mysteries book series by Charlaine Harris, reached its final season. A show that had its fair share of ups and downs story-wise, it also felt like an end of an era as it’s the last horny-on-main series in recent memory that’d feel like an anomaly in our current largely sexless cinematic climate. But above all, when the series ended, viewers had to bid farewell to its iconic power pairing: Eric Northman (Alexander Skarsgård) and his progeny, Pamela Swynford de Beaufort (Kristin Bauer van Straten).

What makes a show popular? Well, of course a strong story at the center of it, unexpected plot twists, perfect cast, and many other things. But another important part of the show is its theme song and the overall intro to the series.
Sometimes those are either extremely forgettable or really annoying so that you just skip them to get to the point. But there are a few examples of intros crafted so carefully, they really become united with the series and make it impossible for the fans to press the skip button.
Here are 5 series fans can't help but enjoy the perfect intros before diving into the next episode of the beloved series.
1. Succession (2018-2023)
Of course, there was no way we could have started with anything else. The opening credits of Succession show footage of a wealthy family from many years ago mixed with modern images of life in the megalopolis,...

“Elsbeth” brought back Carrie Preston as Elsbeth Tascioni after she originated the character in both “The Good Wife” and “The Good Fight.” The CBS spin-off show follows the titular Elsbeth, an unconventional attorney who works with the NYPD to catch criminals.
But “Elsbeth” doesn’t just return Preston to one of her most treasured roles, it could also return Jesse Tyler Ferguson to the Emmys. Ferguson has a healthy Emmys history behind him (more on that later) but he has been absent at the TV awards for some time now. His guest role in “Elsbeth” could change that, however. Ferguson plays Skip Mason, an Andy Cohen-like producer behind a reality TV show titled “Lavish Ladies.” Ferguson clearly has a ball every time he’s on-screen and, as a result, we have a ball watching him, too, as noted by critics.

Have you ever meditated on the ‘what-ifs’ of casting decisions that could’ve reshaped our beloved characters? Zack Snyder had a very valid reason for casting Henry Cavill over an actor who might have just been on the cusp of donning the iconic red cape: Joe Manganiello. The latter played Deathstroke in the Dceu.
It is exciting to peel back the layers of Snyder’s Man of Steel, a film that sparked debate over its tone and portrayal of Krypton’s last son. While the director’s vision faced scrutiny for allegedly missing Superman’s quintessential hopefulness, he himself pointed to a nuanced perspective on his protagonist’s innate “innocence”, a characteristic he found in Cavill.

This means that the Magic Mike actor, who eventually played a villain in Justice League, was Snyder’s second choice for Superman’s role.

So you think you know everything about attorney Elsbeth Tascioni? Think again.
“We will learn more about everybody’s backstory,” says Carrie Preston, teasing Season 2 of “Elsbeth.”
“There will be delving not just into her past and personal life, but also Captain C.W. Wagner’s, played by Wendell Pierce, and Carra Patterson’s Officer Kaya Blanke. Now, in this season, Elsbeth talks about her son Teddy. Before, on ‘The Good Wife,’ she only mentioned him once. We will probably be deepening that too in Season 2.”
“Elsbeth,” competing at Monte-Carlo Television Festival, is finally putting Preston’s fan-favorite, Emmy-winning attorney front and center.
Introduced in “The Good Wife” and featured on “The Good Fight,” Tascioni leaves Chicago and is now working alongside the NYPD. Needless to say, her new colleagues need some time to warm up to her unconventional methods. And her numerous bags.
“Oh yes – the bags. They were there from the very beginning,...

Even the best series has to conclude at some point, often to the dismay of those who grew to love the characters and stories. It's not easy to pull off the ultimate series finale.
If you need a primary example of that, work your way through Game of Thrones, Lost, True Blood, or The Walking Dead (to name a few) and suffer the indignity of watching the endings come apart at the seams.
But those who get it right are forever enshrined in the public consciousness and the hallowed halls of TV history.
We're not talking about sadness brought on by a beloved series ending a long and storied run, though that is devastating in its own way. No, these are episodes capable of eliciting the same emotions as a standalone movie.

On Friday nights, IndieWire After Dark takes a feature-length beat to honor fringe cinema in the streaming age.
First, the spoiler-free pitch for one editor’s midnight movie pick — something weird and wonderful from any age of film that deserves our memorializing.
Then, the spoiler-filled aftermath as experienced by the unwitting editor attacked by this week’s recommendation.
The Pitch: A “Josie and the Pussycats”-Type Spinoff for “The L Word” Crowd
More than a decade ago, “D.E.B.S.” filmmaker Angela Robinson gifted garage band lesbians everywhere “Girltrash: All Night Long.” Too bad most of that delusional target demographic seems to have been too busy obsessing over their ex-girlfriends — and/or future Band Slam prospects — to properly champion this underrated gem from a pioneering voice in queer film. Oh, well! You know what they say: If you want a movie loved right, then you have to throw your own bra at it.

A sci-fi drama unlike any other, Netflix’s 3 Body Problem provoked a mixture of critical acclaim, fandom buzz and political debate with its rather bold adaptation of author Liu Cixin’s celebrated physics-stuff novel. Showrunners David Benioff and Dan Weiss — coming off HBO’s Game of Thrones — teamed with True Blood writer-producer Alexander Woo on the daunting project, which tells the story of humanity’s reaction to a centuries-spanning alien invasion plot. Across eight episodes, the drama combined lavish spectacle with intimate human drama, earning a two-season renewal from the streamer despite its lavish price tag (more than $20 million per episode). Benioff, Weiss and Woo discuss their adaptive choices, the season’s unique tonal shift and their (very different) favorite scenes.
Reading over the responses to this season, it’s clear that even a lot of die-hard book fans were impressed by many of the choices you made for your adaptation.

Law & Order Svu star Chris Meloni explored new passions after leaving the long-running procedural. One of the more surprising dreams he wanted to achieve was learning how to fly.

Svu was very good to Meloni during his time on the hit television show. He recognized it gave him the kind of security he’d always longed for as a working actor. Especially when Meloni knew what it was like not having a guaranteed role in the earlier years of his career.
Leaving Svu was a tough decision, but one he thought was necessary.
“You work your whole career for what I got. You know, I hit the jackpot. I hit a show that meant something, was well-written, was well-received. You loved the working conditions and the people. It was a well-run machine.

“Will operates from a place of such immense love and clarity, which I think is often common with people who are dealing with facing their own mortality,” reveals “3 Body Problem” star Alex Sharp. For our recent webchat about portraying Will Downing, a brilliant scientist diagnosed with terminal pancreatic cancer, Sharp recounts a day on set when “there was a line that was ended up being cut. In the bar scene at the beginning of the season, where Jack makes a comment to Will about something to do with him giving up and just being a teacher, Will responds, ‘don’t you think there’s something really noble about dedicating your life to the future?'” he recalls, adding, “that’s just Will. Then you put that person in the position of being terminally ill and it’s like almost a microcosm or metaphor for what humanity is dealing with.

What is mankind without science? The thought-provoking question is one of the themes in “3 Body Problem,” an eight-episode Netflix series from “Game of Thrones” creators D.B. Weiss and David Benioff and “True Blood” scribe Alexander Woo. Adapted from author Cixin Liu’s “Remembrance of Earth’s Past” trilogy, the material follows a group of scientists who attempt to save humanity from a technologically advanced alien race known as the San-Ti. What it meant for the creative team was developing a distinct visual aesthetic capable of reaching the far ends of the galaxy, yet one delicate enough to support the emotional dilemmas each character faced.
“I remember when the guys first wrote to me about this series, and they promised, I quote, ‘A journey from China during the darkest hours of the cultural revolution all the way to the farthest fringes of the universe, both in time and space.’ And I thought,...

Six Feet Under probably doesn’t come to most people’s minds when discussing HBO’s best series because it doesn’t have a controversial, overarching subject matter.
The Sopranos remains appealing to new viewers mainly due to its mafia backdrop. The Wire catches eyes because cop dramas are a known quantity. With Six Feet Under, however, creator Alan Ball (who also helmed HBO’s queer-coded horror spectacle True Blood) crafted a simple drama about a loving yet chaotic family who runs a funeral home. That doesn’t seem all that exciting to an audience member going in with no prior knowledge. Still, all it should take is a few episodes of the show for that viewer to become instantly obsessed with the raw, authentic characters and real life issues that it expertly depicts.

In Netflix sci-fi epic series 3 Body Problem, British actor Alex Sharp stars as Will Downing, a terminally-ill scientist who not only manages profound romantic heartbreak, but ultimately transcends the limits of human existence.
Plucked straight out of Julliard to play the lead character of Christopher Boone in the Marianne Elliott-directed stage production of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, Sharpe won a Tony for the role. He went on to star opposite Lily Collins in the film To the Bone, as activist Rennie Davis in The Trial of the Chicago 7 and with Anne Hathaway and Rebel Wilson in The Hustle, before playing opposite Bill Nighy in Living and with Anthony Hopkins and Helena Bonham Carter in One Life, the 2023 film about British humanitarian Nicholas Winton, who rescued hundreds of Jewish children from occupied Poland.

Taylor Sheridan was inspired by all the Western films he saw as a youngster to create Yellowstone. One film that influenced him the most was Clint Eastwood’s Oscar-winning film Unforgiven. However, Eastwood’s indirect contributions to Sheridan’s series go beyond Western inspiration. The creator hired one actor in the series after watching him play a role in an Eastwood film.

Luke Grimes played the role of Navy Seal Marc Lee in the 2014 film American Sniper. It was this role that caught the attention of Sheridan, who then cast him as everyone’s heartthrob Kayce Dutton in the series.

“It is something that haunts all production designers; it’s something that requires a lot of hard work,” admits four-time Emmy-winning production designer Deborah Riley (“Game of Thrones”) about striving for authenticity and realism, ensuring the look and feel of a series never comes across as too staged or artificial. “It’s layers and layers and layers, and oftentimes it comes down to [for example] a set painter, who will just touch all of those props and touch up all of the walls, and just make sure they feel a little bit lived-in. You know, a bit of a layer of dust over everything helps,” Riley laughs during our recent webchat, adding that, “you’ve got to look at everything and squint slightly and add yourself. You never want anything to feel or look like a prop or dressing. It’s got to feel like someone to put it there for a reason.

The new solo album from guitarist Billy Morrison is filled with big-name guests, and now he’s tapped Hollywood actor Joe Manganiello for the music video for “It’s Come to This.”
The cinematic clip sees Morrison cruising through the desert in a shimmering blue Shelby Mustang. There is a loose narrative here, so spoilers ahead: Morrison pulls over to dig up a mysterious bag before pulling up to a shack. Manganiello sits on the porch playing a guitar, striking his typical imposing figure.
As Billy approaches, he produces a box from the aforementioned bag. Manganiello takes a peak inside and is immediately blinded by a brilliant light. As he closes the box, Morrison sheds a wry smile and returns to his Mustang, leaving Manganiello with the drop. The ending definitely pulls the “What’s in the box?” card from Seven, while the cinematography evokes the highway-scapes of Vanishing Point...

The first season of Reacher became an unexpected hit – the adaptation of Lee Child's novels attracted viewers unfamiliar with the source material, as well as fans of the books who complained that the character previously played by Tom Cruise was far from what Child described.
The second season came out almost two years after the release of the first, and the show was renewed for a third season at the end of 2023. And only recently new information has emerged – a new chapter of Reacher's story will be released in 2025.
It's still a long wait, so here are five TV shows to help you pass the time while you wait for the new season.

Netflix announced on Wednesday that it had “renewed” “3 Body Problem,” but the streamer notably didn’t refer to the extension as a “Season 2.” Instead, it appears to be more of a case of Netflix ordering “additional episodes” instead of a new, full Season 2 order.
Per a press release, the exact number of seasons and episodes will be announced at a later date.
It appears that the order will take the series to its finale, as creators David Benioff, D.B. Weiss and Alexander Woo noted in a statement that they “get to tell this story through to its epic conclusion.” In an April interview with Collider, Benioff said the team would “need at least three, maybe four seasons to tell the whole story.”

“Storytelling, and the words that they put in their actors’ mouths. They’re just glorious,” declares Liam Cunningham when giving high praise to the creators of Netflix’s hit sci-fi drama “3 Body Problem.” The series was created by multiple Emmy-winning “Game of Thrones” duo David Benioff and D. B. Weiss, who serve as co-creators and producers with writer/producer Alexander Woo (“True Blood”). For our recent webchat, Cunningham (who worked with Benioff and Weiss as Ser Davos Seaworth on “Game of Thrones”) adds, “it’s just wonderful! They aim so high with difficult storytelling that most normal people wouldn’t attempt to go near.” Watch our exclusive video interview above.

“3 Body Problem” is based on the Hugo Award-winning novel “The Three-Body Problem” by Chinese author Liu Cixin, the first in Liu’s “Remembrance of Earth’s Past” trilogy.

10. What We Do in the Shadows (2019–2024)
We often picture vampires as the ultimate nocturnal predators, masters of seduction and illusion, don’t we? The entire charm of the Wwds’s bloodsuckers is how humane they are.
Sure, they only survive on drinking blood, but they’re just as funky, daft, insecure, and troubled as us — and that makes them all the more relatable.
You can watch What We Do in the Shadows on Hulu, Max, Apple TV, Disney Plus, and Prime Video.
9. Hemlock Grove (2013–2015)
If you need a simple and unsophisticated conflict in a vampire story, all you need to do is throw in some werewolves. Hemlock Grove takes this classic move up a notch and surrounds its titular town with a thick mist of uncertainty, mystique, and intrigues — all the while maintaining the tone of the otherworldly murder mystery.

“The mutants are coming. The bell has been rung.” – Yes, that famous dialogue from Batman V Superman has been modified, but it perfectly fits with what Deadpool & Wolverine is about to bring to the theatres. The Deadpool threequel will officially introduce mutants in the MCU’s continuity, and the X-Men fans can’t be more hyped!
Storm in X-Men ’97
As soon as it was confirmed that the mutants were coming to the main timeline, fans began looking up at the possible casting choices for their favorite X-Men. And one of the most popular X-Men characters is Storm aka Ororo Munroe, who happens to be one of their strongest heroes.
Deadpool 3 will be bringing back a number of mutants from the Fox movies, and it is more than likely that Marvel will reboot the older continuity and introduce younger actors as the quintessential X-Men after that. And we have...

Exclusive: Chris Coy (Lawmen: Bass Reeves) has been tapped for a series regular role on Netflix’s drama Black Rabbit, as well as a supporting role in David Robert Mitchell’s Warner Bros film Flowervale Street.
In the former project, Coy will play Babbitt, a low-level bookie. Details as to his Flowervale part and the film’s plot remain under wraps.
Starring Jason Bateman and Jude Law, Black Rabbit is a limited series centering on some serious sibling drama: When the owner of a New York City hotspot (Law) allows his turbulent brother (Bateman) back in his life, he opens the door to escalating dangers that threaten to bring down everything he’s built.

Everyday we draw nearer to the release of the second part of “Yellowstone’s” 5th season feels more surreal. Yes I know there are spinoffs in the works – and I know fans plan to immerse themselves in that world as well – but we’ll still miss “Yellowstone.”
Luke Grimes Calls “Yellowstone” Character His Dream Role
“If I could have figured out my dream role at the age that I got that job, it would have been Kayce,” the star, who once lost the “Twilight” role to Edward Cullen, told UK’s Independent.
Awww… It feels nice to hear Luke Grimes say that because I know many “Yellowstone” fans are absolutely in love with his character, Kayce.
However, becoming Kayce wasn’t as easy as all that as he admitted he did have a hard time filming the first season for this reason.

Yellowstone star Ian Bohen has some big claims about the Paramount+ series’ final few episodes, despite potentially losing lead star Kevin Costner. The second part of the fifth and final season has yet to begin filming, with Bohen suggesting that filming will start in May. Bohen claimed that he was told the rough outlines of the final episodes. According to Bohen, Yellowstone fans are going to get one of the best finale seasons that could possibly be written.
Yellowstone is expected to have the best conclusion according to its actor
Bohen’s big claims come at a time when the show is riddled with uncertainties and behind-the-scenes issues. Fans were almost expecting a disastrous final season like Game of Thrones or Lost, but the Teen Wolf actor has just raised everyone’s hopes.

It's no secret to any horror buff that the genre's greatest offerings aren't always defined by critical prestige. But when it comes to horror television, the uphill battle that new shows face to overcome skepticism and garner positive reviews is even steeper. This is aptly demonstrated by the TV landscape of the '90s, in which writers and directors galvanized the medium by venturing into as-yet-unexplored depths of scariness, violence, and production value. However, creators weren't always able to translate that broadening of horizons into favorable critical notes.
Sure, it was the decade of "Twin Peaks," "The X-Files," Stephen King's "It," and all the bold new offerings for which such beloved programs paved the way by evidencing audiences' appetite for serious, well-made horror TV. But it was also the decade of a vast number of critical flops, which have been either largely forgotten or marred by extremely negative reputations...

The Vampire Diaries was never intended to be a period drama, and no one expected it to be historically accurate. However, since the main characters of the series are vampires who can technically live forever, it was clear from the very first season that the chronology of events would not be limited to modern times.
At first, flashbacks showed viewers the Salvatore brothers' youth in the 19th century, but then the Originals, who were several hundred years old, were introduced into the story. Fans were sent back to very ancient times, and the historical inaccuracies made by the writers could no longer be ignored.
Why Were All The Mikaelsons Were Single?
We don’t know the Mikaelsons’ exact ages, but some calculations still can be made. Thus, we can conclude that all members of the Mikaelson family were between 16 and 27 years old at the time of them being turned into vampires.

“I knew from the moment I read the first drafts of the script that this show was something special,” admits Jess Hong about her first starring role in “3 Body Problem.” The hit Netflix sci-fi drama was co-created by multiple Emmy-winning “Game of Thrones” duo David Benioff and D. B. Weiss, who serve as co-creators and producers with writer/producer Alexander Woo (“True Blood”). For our recent webchat she adds, “I was reading the draft scripts at home alone in my bed, and I was laughing and crying, and so enthralled by these characters, the relationships and of course the epic storytelling.” Watch our exclusive video interview above.

Joe Manganiello recently said that he’s always “on the lookout for a good werewolf script” because he feels he has some unfinished business from his days of playing a werewolf on HBO series True Blood – but while we wait to see if and when he’s going to end up making a werewolf movie, Deadline reports that he has signed on to star in and produce a zombie thriller called Mountain Man.
