Those who enjoyed Warehouse 13 or the American version of Being Human growing up will certainly love the quirkiness Reginald the Vampire has to offer, and if given a Season 2, the series could only serve to grow, embracing its human characters as much as its undead ones.
Feels like a kind of tonal companion piece to Syfy’s great “Resident Alien,” with its winning combination of comedy, suspense, likable characters and real feeling.
Its pacing could be more consistent, both in the macro sense (e.g., how the mythology all fits together) and the micro (e.g., where and how specific punchlines land). That said, if you’re looking for a spooky season show to decompress with on a weekly basis, or a fun, low-stakes binge to save up for Halloween weekend, Reginald the Vampire is your man.
The first episode is more heartfelt than hilarious, but there’s enough of the former for us to forgive the lack of the latter.
Frequently charming. ... Like “Interview,” unfortunately, “Reginald” starts out strong and then starts to bog down. (Five of 10 episodes were available.)
“Reginald” lacks much dramatic or comedic bite.
Reginald the Vampire‘s single greatest advantage is Batalon, whose puppy-dog charm helps gloss over some of the series’ most glaring shortcomings. ... But even his efforts can go only so far to conceal how thinly conceived Reginald the Vampire really is.
