He means they are going to Vlad the Impaler's castle (I know little about if he really lived there).  "Dracula" wasn't his real name.

Yes, his name was Vlad Tepes and "Dracula" loosely translates to "Son of the Dragon". And apropos of nothing at all, here is my favorite Vlad the Impaler cartoon:

I seriously do not understand how Statler doesn't understand moving to the UK isn't like moving across state to like Utah, Minnesota or California.

To me it’s like when Americans get pissed off and say “ that’s it. I’m moving to Canada “. As if we have no immigration laws. Statler is in for a rude awakening.

I read a persuasive article years ago that posited Bram Stoker did not base the character of Dracula on Vlad Tepes.

I have read (maybe the same article!) that Dracula was based on Elizabeth Bathory, who did all kinds of unspeakable things to her female servants, supposedly bathing in blood.  Or maybe kind of a mishmash of characters.

I've looked longingly at the bridge in Detroit, I admit.  I know logically I can't just stroll over and set up housekeeping.

Oh yeah, I did see a little of this on the preview Friday night, right before I fell asleep. I like how Razvan  says "cast-el."

Hmm... I'm wondering how soon before Jasmine pushes Gino off those rocks.

Not until she has the marriage license and green card clutched in her hot little hands.

As someone who moved to Canada from the U.S., it took 6 months of lawyers and a ton of paperwork. And that's with a job waiting for me in Canada, which is really the magic key to moving to another country - and what Statler does not have.
