0:00Max wakes up and learns that a vampire bite followed his encounter with a marble bust.
1:15His girlfriend discusses her worries about his sudden transformation with the older vampires.
1:48Max argues that feeling normal and disliking blood mean he cannot be a vampire.
3:05Charles stops Max from leaving for work, warning that he could expose the household.
3:36Max's continued denial sets up the scene's final punchline.

The sight of blood still repulses Max, which he takes as a promising sign: surely he can't be a vampire if he doesn't feel like one. The household of vampires around him has rather less doubt.

That disagreement drives "A Vampire in Denial | Eternally Yours | CBS," a sitcom scene that reached nearly 30,000 views in eleven hours on CBS Comedy. It had already drawn far more viewers than the channel's regular videos usually attract in a full first day.

Max wakes to a blunt explanation from his girlfriend: "My dad bit you and now you're a vampire." Acceptance does not follow. Instead, he tries to produce fangs, finds his own lack of obvious symptoms reassuring and eventually decides he should leave for work.

Charles, the family's patriarch, objects. A newly turned vampire wandering out unprepared could expose the whole household. What Max treats as an ordinary workday is suddenly everybody else's security problem.

The series builds its family comedy around Charles (Ed Weeks) and Liz (Allegra Edwards), a Seattle vampire couple whose marriage has settled into a centuries-long rut. Here, their daughter's boyfriend brings a more immediate domestic complication: someone has to explain the rules to him, and he keeps disputing the premise.

Among the comments, viewers frame Max's denial as the opening stage of processing his transformation. Another returns to the marble bust that struck him before the bite, joking that it might explain why the message isn't getting through.

What viewers say

This is just the first step of the grieving process. Next comes anger, and then bargaining, depression, and finally, acceptance.

Max saying he's not vampire even though he turned into one? That bust must've hit him harder than we thought.
