HBO has its book-based vampire series (True Blood). The CW has its YA-book-based vampire series (Vampire Diaries; new season begins 9/9).

And, now for something completely different, on Halloween, AMC is launching The Walking Dead, a series about flesh-eating zombies. Hotly anticipated by comics fans, it’s based on the Robert Kirkman series. The first trailer has just appeared online.
