Genre specifics[edit]

This WP:POINTy revert [1] needs to be undone. We don't normally cite sources in leads or infoboxes, but in the main body, unless something is controversial. There is nothing even faintly controversial about the idea that this is a vampire-themed TV show, a horror genre generally, and that this one in particular has many sci-fi elements. If you want sources refering to this as a horror and sci-fi series, spend about 5 seconds on Google News and take your pick: [2]. I have no idea what strange agenda is behind trying to keep this article denuded of any genre information besides the excessively vague and unhelpful "drama", but I think we all know this is a WP:V, WP:NPOV, and WP:NOR problem. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 02:41, 25 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

My dear, there is a source (the best) that this is a thriller series. You can't add two unsourced genres. Especially you can't call that a "genre cleanup", that is outright misleading. Now if you found sources for other genres, feel free to add them, just please refrain from calling my perfectly justified edit "pointy". Debresser (talk) 15:04, 25 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
