I rarely watch TV, and in the past two years, I've done three TV shows. It's quite interesting.

I've been offered quite a few network shows, over the past couple of years, and always turned them down because I never wanted the commitment. The way that it works in America, you do a pilot and then you wait, and I just thought that wasn't really what I was interested in doing, in that moment.

Nowadays, everything is so gratuitous. The violence is suggested, and it's much more impactful than showing everything.

I think it's very rare, as an actor, that you get to a script, or an idea of a script, and you go, "Oh, I just have to do that!" It fell into place very quickly.

I think it's a blessing that the show [Dracula] is on a network because it forces everyone to use their imaginations and be creative. The power of suggestion comes back. So, in the sex scenes, no one is ever fully naked, but I feel the suggestion is so much sexier.

Dracula isn't just another vampire show. It's something entirely different that I personally feel I've never seen on American TV before.
