Love it! I just *knew* you were working towards a Count Chocula reference, I just knew it. (I actually bought a box of the stuff for my kids last week at Target.)
I tried reading “Twilight.” Got 3 pages in, realized I didn’t give a damn, and returned it to the library. I’m getting my dose of vamps from the new “Buffy” and “Angel” comic books–better than those “Vampire Diaries” poofs any day.

Ya hit it on the head, Tom. Zombies are next. And let’s not forget the ‘Count’ from Sesame Street.

Love the Count Chocula comment and Paul you’re right - let’s not forget the count from Sesame Street. Frankly all this “jumping on the bandwagon” is a little tiring, can anybody get creative? Even Stephanie Meyer wasn’t all that creative because let’s face it Buffy and Angel were around long before Twighlight was.

Does the name Bram Stoker mean anything to anyone??? It’s becomming obvious by the references, and the fact that “Scribbles” is, in fact, an animated “Doodle”, that few care to read the written word anymore. Must work like garlic. There were more references to TV programs than to, say, Anne Rice’s Vampire Chronicles, and only two (or so) references to “Twilight” which, while a highly hyped cinema entry, had it’s humble beginnings in the YA market as a teener bopper cult pulp fantasy. Most of these programs are about as sickeningly sweet as Kellog’s Count and just about as intellecutally stimulating as his goody two shoes counterpart on the side of light, Strawberry Shortcake. I don’t think either of them can read either.
