Today I take a brief look at Ultraviolet, a UK 6-episode series from 1998/99. It revolves around a government-funded paramilitary police unit, which may have connections to the Roman Catholic Church. They're fighting a secret war against a worldwide vampire conspiracy. The main character, Detective Sergeant Michael Colefield (Jack Davenport of the Pirates of the Caribbean movies) is a police detective who encounters agents of this organization after his partner and best friend Jack (Stephen Moyer of True Blood fame) disappears.
It's currently available on DVD, I highly recommend you check it out. There was an attempt in 2000 to remake the series in the US, however, as one producer behind it notes, "we screwed it up and it just didn't come out that well." So needless to say it didn't get past the pilot stage.
