A muslim vampire doctor...thats as funny as it gets.
There are some "jokes" but they are from the 70s. All been done to death many many times before and werent funny the first time around either.
Some social issues do get raised too, but as subtly as a sledghammer, which I expected.
Its a 1 joke tv show because the writer is not a comedy writer. Hes a Cambridge history graduate. Probably a nice guy but not a comedy writer. I guess he got an opportunity and took it, fair enough. But it didnt work this time.
