Vampire Prosecutor flirts with Season 2
by girlfriday
Ooh! Ooh! More hot prosecutor with a penchant for blood juice boxes and the perfect application of guyliner? Where do I get in line? OCN’s hit show Vampire Prosecutor must be taking a cue from rabid fans, because producers have announced that they’re seriously considering a Season 2, and really, they’d be crazy not to. Well now that changes everything about what I want for the finale!
According to the production, they can’t give final confirmation, but are currently working to coordinate actor and staff schedules for a second season, and have been planning for one from the get-go. It wouldn’t be a stretch to call Vampire Prosecutor a runaway hit, as far as cable numbers are concerned. It’s been in the number one slot for ten weeks running, with last Sunday’s Episode 11 averaging 2.5% ratings, continuing its streak of stellar numbers for original cable programming. The previous week’s Episode 10 raked in an average 3.16%, with a high of 4% during the broadcast. (In cable ratings, a 1% average is considered rock solid, or… it was until this show came along.)
Basically shows like Vampire Prosecutor are changing what it means to be a competitive original drama on the cable landscape, just at the turn of the tide when a slew of newbie cable companies have launched with original shows of their own. It’s a really interesting time for dramaland, and I can only hope that the trend continues, because we’re getting some damn good dramas from the little guys.
With only one more episode to go, this leaves me in a finale-wish predicament. While I would normally want the hero and his team to save the day and tie up all their loose ribbons, wouldn’t it be awesome if saving the day meant it put him on the opposite side of the law for Season 2?? Okay, I know, but then it would have to be called something other than Vampire Prosecutor. How about Ex-Vampire-Prosecutor: The Reckoning?
What’s great about the procedural format of this show is that it could potentially go on for years, like the American model of multi-season shows. The murders of the week provide the stable backbone, while we could get a new big bad, or spend more time with the team and their personal lives. I guess all that really matters is that the original team stays together, because that’s the heart of the show. Maybe they can add someone to the team, like a new intern for Dong-man to boss around.
If the stars align, Vampire Prosecutor Season 2 will air on OCN next August.

Sure has my vote for Season 2! It's a refreshing turn from the usual drama plots. Just like Joseon X-Files was so welcome!

Dear Drama gods? Are you there? It's me, E-kun. I am in desperate need of another season of Vampire Prosecutor season 2. I know that you are busy trying with all your might to make some other things happen, like: Full House season two, keeping idols acting careers a float, and causing women all over the world to scream your name because of all the hotness that has come back from military service this year. but if you find that you have extra time in your ever busy schedule, I would greatly appreciate this miracle...
E-Kun
P.S. can we even barter an exchange? You give me a season two of VP and I will stop praying to you about Kim Hyun Joong's acting or lack there of.

The prosecutor is freaking hot!!! Seriously! The only reason I even started the show before getting totally hooked was his face. He just so freaking adorable and hot and when his eyes teared...oh!!!!
But why is Season 2 only air next year!!! That is toooo long!!!! Pls make it faster!
Why is a drama as awesome as this one only have 12 episodes whereas some other lovey-dovey dramas can go on for 20-30 plus episodes?!!! Why oh why? It's not fair!

I want this drama a second season. A good drama can't have on 12 episodes. If not, hire me as their script writer! I have many ideas for this drama!
And if this drama to me continued, I hope all of the main casts from season one to be in it.

Vampire Prosecutor itself is a nice short Kdrama with 12 episodes which is kinda unusual for a Kdrama since its standard eps is 16 episodes or more.
I would watch the last episode by the 23rd of December, and right now, if loose ends are still not tied by the last episode I wouldn't mind a season 2... but if all is resolved by then, then having a season 2 would be pointless and be a drag, even if I do really love this series.
I hope if a season 2 is a go, I would not want it to be a disappointment.

AAHH!!! I just watched the last episode raw and I'm so happy to see that. I hope that it is confirmed that the original team comes back for the second season because I can't really watch it if anyone changed. I can't wait till the recaps because I don't understand a thing, but all I know is that I'm really happy. Thank you for the hard work. I can't wait for season 2.

Come on, trying something new for k-drama wouldn't be bad and you gotta admit we sure want more. At the same level and equally exciting. Think of it this way for all the people who don't want a second season. The next season will fill the gaps of the 1st season. By adding more complex concepts to the other characters and making them more important. Plus I wanna see a k-drama be like an american sitcom. It's different and experimenting into new territory. For people in America: See asain people in their own sitcom...not trying to be racist - just saying...not meant as insult. If I offend anyone. My bad if I do.
