* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: In the series two episode ''Bad Reflection'', Vlad's cousin Boris grows into a full vampire and undergoes a FaceHeelTurn that causes Count Dracula to say EvenEvilHasStandards. Vlad is completely oblivious to this, even after an EvilMonologue or two. Of course, he has his reasons, since he's very worried about turning evil when he becomes a full vampire, and desperately wanted to believe that his friend had gone through the transformation without any personality change, so it could have been more of a WillingSuspensionOfDisbelief on his part.
