  'Reginald the Vampire': Jacob Batalon & company gush about that date from hell in Episode 3

  In the this week's Reginald the Vampire, showrunner Harley Peyton and his team may have arguably given us one of the very worst first date scenarios ever witnessed on television. In "Hypnos," it was supposed to be Reginald's (Jacob Batalon) do-over with Sarah (Em Haine), after Maurice (Mandela Van Peebles) glamoured her memory of Reg's first, terrible botching of their first date in the pilot. But who could have expected vampires LeBron (Sean Yves Lessard) and Penelope (Georgia Waters) to wreck

  Exclusive: Jacob Batalon retracts his ‘Reginald the Vampire' fangs to hang with Big Bird on ‘Sesame Street’

  We don’t know who told him how to get there, but Jacob Batalon has found his way to Sesame Street. For the titular star of Reginald the Vampire, dropping in on the classic kids’ show marks a definite departure from the SYFY series’ comedically dark underworld of immortality. No worries, though: With or without fangs, Batalon’s getting the full welcome mat treatment from Big Bird, doing the honors as the newest celebrity presenter for Sesame Street’s word of the day. Though Batalon and Big Bird h

The two men behind SYFY’s lates original series had nothing but praise for the Spider-Man: No Way Home actor at New York Comic Con 2022, saying in the video above that very little of what they are doing with the series would work without Batalon’s talents. “This is just

  'Reginald the Vampire' creator and Jacob Batalon talk confidantes and cameos in 'The Hunger'

  In the sophomore episode of SYFY's new series Reginald the Vampire, "The Hunger," our fledgling Reg (Jacob Batalon) is still trying to figure out his vamp powers, and he's really, really trying not to feed on the people he actually cares about. Flailing mightily, Reg gets some major assists from his small circle of those "in the know" about his new status, including neighbor Claire (Thailey Roberge) and Reggie's sire, Maurice (Mandela Van Peebles). In the latest of SYFY WIRE's exclusive weekly p

  Jacob Batalon and the 'Reginald the Vampire' team break down the series premiere

  There's no shortage of vampire-centric TV series out there, but the premiere of SYFY's Reginald the Vampire did the hard work of distinguishing it from the toothy pack. A loose adaptation of novelist Johnny Truant's Fat Vampire books, Reginald gives us perhaps the sweetest and most sympathetic vamp to ever grace screens. As played by Spider-Man: No Way Home star Jacob Batalon, Reginald is a romantic, nerd loner who can't quite get his life out of neutral. Stuck in a dead end retail job at the lo
