Well he's not a vampire, he's an immortal. So he belongs on the
Highlander scale. Better that Highlander the Raven and the last
season of Highlander, not as good as the earlier seasons of
Highlander. Of course this is an opinion formed from watching only
the pilot, so it may move up or down depending on the quality of the
remaining episodes.
