Bad bad bad. I watched too. It’s horrible.
Anyone else remember the short lived (heh) Kindred: The Embrased which was loosely based on the Vampire: The Masquerade RPG. A whopping 7 episodes aired.
Wikipedia has a list:
Wow, no mention of True Blood or The Vampire Diaries – I’d expect True Blood to be mentioned earlier (never saw it myself, as I rarely had access to HBO*)

* I subscribed for one month to watch Game Of Thrones
Supernatural had vampires here and there.
Blood Ties Not the one that Czarcasm mentioned. This one was a one-shot TV movie about a man who discovers that he comes from a family of Carpathians (Don’t call them vampires — that’s an ugly racial slur). Like all immigrants, the Carpathians try to make their way in the US. The good ones try to assimilate, that bad ones join crime syndicates.
Vampire Starring Richard Lynch as the not-Dracula, Jason Miller as the not-Jonathan Harker, and E.G. Marshal as the not-Van Helsing. Not original in the least, but I enjoyed it nonetheless.
In 1976, Starsky & Hutch searched for a serial killer who thought he was a vampire. Huggy Bear naturally went into business, selling kits containing garlic, crosses and stakes.
In 1977, McCloud searched for a serial killer who thought he was a vampire. The prime suspect was an elderly man who, in his youth, had been an actor famous for playing Dracula. The character was played by John Carradine.
In 1977, the Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew searched for a serial killer who thought he was a vampire. At the end, the police took the killer away in handcuffs. They passed in front of a mirror, and the killer cast no reflection.
1977 was also the year that Frank Langella played Dracula on Broadway. Vamps were in the zeitgeist that year.
Once again, I want to talk about tv series that were primarily about vampires, not individual episodes of series that, for the most part, didn’t involve vampires.
I don’t see What We Do in the Shadows mentioned yet, so I’ll take care of that.
Oops, missed the earlier post. Never mind… 
I’ve been seeing promos for Eternally Yours, a comedy from some of the same folks who make Ghosts.
NM I see it was mentioned right up too.
On The Rookie: Feds, one of the characters had risen to fame as an actor on a television show called Vampire Cop before becoming an FBI agent. I gotta say, if it were an actual show, I think I might want to watch it.
Amazed no one has mentioned What We Do in the Shadows.
Well worth watching. It’s kinda great.
Traditional vampires Nandor, Laszlo, and Nadja, together with energy vampire Colin Robinson, share a Staten Island residence, maintained by Nandor’s familiar Guillermo. The vampires routinely clash with the modern world, other supernatural beings, and each other, while Guillermo earnestly endeavors to balance his loyalty to Nandor with his desire to become a vampire, complicated by his ancestry as a descendant of vampire hunter Van Helsing.
I remember enjoying The Strain, at least for the first few seasons.
There’s another show I want to mention but its kind of a spoiler to say its about vampires.
And, on the Animated Front–

I watched some of the 1991 version. Mostly because I was 20, and thought I had a chance at Joanna Going.
Tru Blood was mentioned - it was my vote.
Forever Knight is on my list of shows with the best series finale. No happy ending for anyone.
Dark Shadows - the critics here just don’t get it. It was must-see-TV for us college students hmmm, all my fingers/toes/times the hour hand/carry the two, 56 years ago. This was high camp, it was SOAP before SOAP. Have the years drained away your appreciation for high art? Cringe for cringe sake. I have no doubt I’ve aged out as well but it was great fun especially with a weird audience crowding the couches and laughing along.
I liked it as well; there were a number of plot threads that didn’t really go anywhere, but I was satisfied with the ending.
