Vampires in America are REAL

Station identification is easier with a small name hence things like ktla or Fox or nbc or the CW etc...
I'm down to watch this stupid shit lol
I think in this case, it's Travel channel rebranding themselves, and trying to be similar to other TV channels: NBC, FOX.....

As for others, I bet it's due to companies trying to come up with a catchy abbreviations for gen-z to use.

That doesn't matter for cable networks though as they have no broadcast IDs, right?
Dark Tourist did an episode on Vampires. He interviewed them and they were all serious until he told them he wanted to see them drink blood. They used a needle to prick someone and they "drank" a tiny drop of blood. It was ridiculous and pretty embarrassing frankly. He totally called their bluff, you could tell they were just making it up as they went along haha

Dark Tourist: Season 1, Episode 3 | Rotten Tomatoes
David looks into the bizarre tour industry built around Jeffrey Dahmer, meeting both the serial killer's fans and the women who defended him in court; he then travels to meet real vampires in New Orleans and visits the site of the JFK assassination.

It makes for an easier id on logos amd channel guides
But it's also probably to be hip and happening and with it and boss and groovy and lit and bossanova with the Zipsters

Slight spoiler: The bandannas they are wearing around their necks in the trailer are made of real kevlar to protect them from vampire bites. This is a real thing that was said by two grown men.
I remember once upon a time when TLC and Discovery Channel had educational content.
Keanu is starting to show his age now, but I guess that would eventually have to start after 500+ years of living.

Vampires have super strength and speed though, they'll tear those right off. Amateurs
This is amazing. Pretty sure I watched a documentary on HBO already about South Western vampires in Louisiana. It was called True Blood or something like that. Now, that was real journalism!
Did they even try to explain the thermodynamics of it? 'Cause like, I'm pretty sure a vampire would need to drink a lot of humans' worth of blood to maintain their metabolism. I don't know enough biology to do the math, but I'm pretty sure the energy density of blood is pretty terrible.
Vampires only work if there's magic involved and it's all life force stuff. If they're trying to present it as just a biology thing... 20k vampires are gonna need to be murdering a lot of people.
they might stop a high velocity bite, but they're in trouble if the vampire decided to bite them nice and slow.
My dad can't stop going on about that bloody ranch and he's British!
I mean, think about it logically for a second.
It absolutely, 100% can't be systemic and institutionalized racism, perpetuated over centuries in this country. The facts just don't back it up. Now vampires...that shit tracks.
If we don't root out this vampire crisis, this country is fucked. Full stop.
Also, I really need to watch this documentary, because it seems like the kind of absurdity I need in my life this month.
Is this the universe where vampires are real? Or the one where they're a myth? I keep forgetting which one this is
Well I think I was wrong because Wiki says Ghost Hunters was on the Sci Fi channel which makes more sense. I might have confused with Ghost Adventures on the Travel Channel and the Travel Channel was inundated with ghost tv shows after Ghost Hunters was a big hit. I guess you can sell it as they are TRAVELING to different locations n shit. It's loose lol.
"A recent and alarming surge in homicides and missing persons cases in the southwest US has vampire hunters concerned that a large group of vampires may have emerged from hibernation."
This seems grossly irresponsible to spin actual crime and the distress of real people over missing loved ones as some daft 'monsters did it' crap, even if it's just to look at how crazy 'vampire hunters' are.

So, as we ALL know, vampires carry around soil from their homeland. After a kill, they deposit some of this soil as a message to other vampires. Basic stuff.
Because the soil of their Eastern European homelands are high in ammonia, the hunters carry a kit to test the soil for ammonia. As it tests positive, a musical sting adds to the tension. Could this be the site of a vampire attack? What are the next steps of the ONLY vampire hunting duo in America?
"It is possible that the soil was contaminated with animal urine, so we will need to send it to a lab for confirmation."
Genius.

I always wonder how shows like this last for so long. Like obviously people watch it, but more so, how do you drag premises like this out for years and years?

I jokingly told my wife that there better be a scene of them storming a vampire den and then like five minutes later the German dude starts talking about his machete and the Steve Bannon looking mother fucker is like LET'S FUCKING GO! ....OMG this thing goes places magical.
This one is particularly funny because the evolution of vampire lore is well documented, and suddenly these people are claiming to see things in real life that some fiction author would proudly tell you that they invented.
Strange tie in to the 2nd Inquisition book just released for Vampire v5 but whatever gets the IP more exposure.
Bloodhunt tie in when

Oh yeah, Jesus and vampires would be an OP combo. Jesus could just transubstantiate blood for them any time they need to top up.
Also I guess the ghosts would be there doing what ghosts are best at, doing fuck-all.
Its funny how in the sentence "vampire hunters concerned that a large group of vampires may have emerged from hibernation", you can replace both uses of 'vampire' with anything from werewolves to aliens, zombies to mutants without changing the pointlessness of it all. It's like asking a Roswell conspiracy theorist whether they think the US Air Force is in on it.
The machine is broken and we're phasing between realities. The situation is currently fluid.
