It's that time again: VAMPril! Specifically VAMPril 2: Double Suck! Once again we return to the world of bloodsuckers for another month! And there's no better way to start than with NICK KNIGHT, a movie-length TV pilot starring Australian rock star Rick Springfield! And joining us is returning guest Dirk Marshall from the VH US podcast (https://www.vh-us.com/), who we knew would be equally impressed with the surprisingly good soundtrack!
Detective Nick Knight is in trouble. Not just because some of his homeless pals are dying, but also because he needs to complete his mug set or be a vampire forever! He'll get some help from a museum curator, who knows where to make the best copies in town, and from some key advice he gets once he meets up with his master!
We get deep into Rick in this episode, including what he is like live on stage! Ryan also bought his memoir, Late, Late at Night, and you should too, as long as you're not looking for choice anecdotes about NICK KNIGHT!
We also discuss the eventual TV show that arose from this movie, years later, called Forever Knight, and the incredible Crimetime After Primetime schedule CBS released alongside it. We also unveil a potential new t-shirt! Don't miss this episode, or you'll never know where we stand on whether vampires urinate or not!
