Mina and the count

[@terrance3218]

Holy crap, KZbin must have sensed my thoughts. I was thinking about this cartoon a few days ago because I never knew that Mark Hamill was the Count. It's also a nice touch how Nina going to bed and the Count waking up are contrasts to each other.

The reason why Nickelodeon rejected Mina and the Count as a series was because Nick didn't really feel comfortable about a vampire hanging out with a little girl.

Even though Dracula in this cartoon becomes friends with a little girl, it is a lot truer to what Vampires are really like, unlike Twilight, and I like the horror references. This show deserves a proper series.

Hey Voldy2006, thanks for putting this cartoon on youtube. I was thinking that I was never going to see this, but I'm glad that I was wrong. Thanks again.

[@Quasarion]

I remember seeing this in the 1990s (It feels so long ago now). It's a great feature that showcases the early work of Rob Renzetti (MY LIFE AS A TEENAGE ROBOT) and Mark Hamill (who went on to voice the Joker). In fact Hamill is the star as the sinister, put-upon but sweet vampire who befriends a mortal girl, and the music is both cartoonishly Gothic and humorous. My favourite moments are 1:57-2:14, 4:10-4:28, 6:12-6:23 and 6:30-6:45. It's a shame this feature didn't get enough respect, but at least it had 5 episodes and holds a strong fanbase.

[@Greatduke12]

Quasarion Mark Hamill had already been voicing the Joker for a few years by the time this came out.

[@jackieec]

I remember this was on my Scooby doo vhs, the nostalgia… and another great performance by Mark! :D
