Based on the trailers, Depp didn't feel like he was trying at all to embody the campiness of Frid's character. Did the original Barnabas come through at all, or was Depp just playing every other British character he's ever played?

The costume was accurate. That's about it. Michelle Phifer (spelling?) was good as Elizabeth, and Helena Bonham Carter was perfect as Dr. Hoffman. I was very disappointed by Jackie Earl Haley's Willie Loomis. Willie was one of the most interesting characters in the show, and was very well acted. They basically neutered his character completely. Oh, and Chloe Moretz was a really good Caroline. The kid they had playing David was nowhere near as good of an actor as the original, which they should be ashamed of themselves for, seeing as he was a child actor on a low budget soap in the 60's.
