Sunday Morning Cartoon: Mina and the Count

Mina and the Count is an animated television series created by Rob Renzetti, which was never brought into development as a full-fledged series. Instead, animated shorts of this series aired on What a Cartoon! and Oh Yeah! Cartoons. Despite much demand by fans to get it shown as an official series, Frederator Studios president, Fred Seibert confirmed there is currently no development of this.

The original Mina and the Count short, "Interlude With a Vampire," premiered on Cartoon Network's What a Cartoon! in the mid-1990s, making it the only short to be featured on both creator-guided shorts projects guided by Fred Seibert. The short was about a 7-year-old girl named Mina Harper (a play on Dracula character Mina Harker) and her encounters with a vampire during a night that she is sleeping (the count had accidentally found her when he was looking for "Nina Parker", another reference to the Dracula character). It is rumored that these cartoons were the inspiration for the Cartoon Network animated television series The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy. Stories show a vampire named simply the Count, and a mortal girl named Mina, her sister Lucy, school bully Nick, Mina's father, a handful of monsters, and the Count's mean servant Igor. Everything is happening in a little town in North America where Mina's school and house is, including the Count's castle.
