If the series was in the style of GOT, a protagonist with the style of anti hero, don't question that he has a relationship with haydee because she was his slave. GOt had controversial content. Would be great.

The Count has a dubious moral rather than being a totally pure, self-sacrificing and altruistic character.

The problem with adaptations today is that the writers don't like the source material, they change the moral of the story to add woke content.
