   Being Human serious lacks Slayers yeah, but both versions (UK and North   
   American) have their moments.. :-)   
      
   Supernatural is about two brothers who are 'hunters'. The closest thing   
   in that 'verse' to Slayers. I've seen the first five seasons thus far   
   and I liked them. In the future I will get the next DVD sets.   
      
   Moonlight was made by those that also made Veronica Mars (a show Joss   
   really liked). It was an okay show. A bit like Angel in a way with a   
   vampire who is a detective, but it never reached the energy that Angel   
   had. Good for a one time view. Maybe two.   
      
   True Blood... I'd say watch the first two or three seasons. After that   
   it went down hill big time. Joss called it vampire porn I think. Accurate.   
      
   Vampire Diaries... Saw the first season. Never watched it again after   
   that. Annoyed the hell out of me.
