NBC's "Dracula" Canceled

May 10, 2014
One more piece has fallen into place for NBC‘s schedule next season with the network opting not to bring back vampire drama "Dracula" for a second season.
Both "Dracula" and "Hannibal", which shared the Friday 10 PM slot this season, are produced under a different model that allows for a lower license fee, making them advantageous for NBC.
"Dracula" (1.8) premiered stronger than "Hannibal" (1.6 in Season 1, 1.1 in Season 2). It lost steam after the solid debut, and there had been some issues with star Jonathan Rhys Meyers, who received good reviews, during the shoot.
With "Hannibal‘s" license fee poised to become even more lucrative for Season 3, the network renewed that series.
