MY BABYSITTER'S A VAMPIRE SYNOPSIS
When geeky 14-year-old Ethan gets stuck with a smokin' hot babysitter (awkward!) and she turns out to be a fledging vampire, he and his geeky friend get dragged into a nightmare mission to stop her blood-sucking ex-boyfriend Jesse from taking over the town. Ethan realizes that he, Sarah and his friends may be all that stand between life as they knew it… and the end of the world.
ABOUT MY BABYSITTER'S A VAMPIRE
My Babysitter's a Vampire is a show that understands how the tween audience "gets" genre - and how they love seeing genres mashed together and turned on their heads. Fresh TV mixed up this comedy/action/horror especially for these media-savvy kids, and from the overwhelming fan reaction, they hit the mark bang-on!
The property's dedicated fang fans are declaring their excitement for My Babysitter's a Vampire all over YouTube and Facebook, and are just chomping at the bit for more hilarious action from their favourite unlikely team-up of geeks and vampires!
TELETOON has called My Babysitter's a Vampire "An amazing, fairy-tale story in the world of television production." The movie's premiere on October 9th, 2010 was an unqualified hit for TELETOON. It was their #1 program for the week across multiple demos, and showed amazing increases in the teen audience especially. Based on this massive success, the MOW and series were sold to Disney Channel and Disney XD in the US and worldwide - and the numbers for the US premiere in June 2011 continued to astound: The movie was the number 1 rated film in the time period, performing head-and-shoulders over Disney's primetime average and once again striking gold with older kid viewers.
LET'S HEAR FROM THE KIDS JURY
"I love this show! It is just full of action and it is 100% downright HILARIOUS! Plus, it's Canadian! The characters are so deep and well rounded. They're easy to relate to and just plain fun to watch. I also like the whole supernatural vibe it gives off. It's spooky but just enough so that it's still fun to watch. My Babysitter's a Vampire has to be my absolute favourite show right now. I would recommend this show to anybody. My family likes it too."
