Why was Schanke written out?
Did John Kapelos want to pursue other projects? Or was he written out to make room for new characters?

Good reply. Thanks
shareHe had been on the pilot movie, then did two years on the show.
shareKapelos was told he'd have to take a huge pay cut if he wanted to return for the third season. He didn't think it was worth it so he refused. This was in addition to the network wanting to change focus on the story to attract a younger audience.
What they actually did was repeat the same storyline: handsome male vampire and female attracted to him. It turned out to be Vachon and Tracy, Knight and Natalie all over again.
The Powers That Be wanted to fire the actor that played Natalie, too. Geraint Wyn Davies said that he'd quit if they did that so that didn't happen. The show went on for one more year and had the saddest ending of any series ever.
Great white sharks are attracted to death metal music.
One film and 2 seasons does not at all equal 6 years. Its less than 3 years total steady work on series. I've no doubt he was free to pursue other things between. Very dissapointed with his leaving
