re: What We Do in the Shadows (FX Series) Season 1 Thread

He played Garrett the Vampire before they met the council.

Late to this thread but I love the show as much as the movie

I want to name a horse Colin Robinson

And I like how they bring the movie vampires back to the show

When he says he can't stand up because of his energy sucking boner while they're all losing their shite at the Council meeting SLAYS me

Ha Ha, I had forgotten about that. There are so many one-liners. Like when Lazlo turns into a bat and Nadja says he doesn't know where to go and before she finishes Lazlo turns back and says he doesn't know where to go.



This is another funny scene from the Council show.
Nandor: "Shhhhhhh Guillermo. You'll spook the Virgins. Your accent". AND Guillermo is a local from Staten Island.

The vampires are out of touch with the world around them, clueless to the effects their actions have, even when they have the best intentions. This is most hilariously evident when Laszlo solves the local raccoon problem.

Just watched the episode again and this time I caught the baby Laszlow turned into a vampire is on the court

The cameos were absolutely amazing. Danny Trejo and Paul Reuben.

Another very good episode. These shows should be an hour long. 30 minutes just isn't enough.





Nandor's desire for citizenship in the nineties came when he got caught up in "Dream Team" fever. He identified with the American Olympic basketball team as it rolled over its rivals like the army of an old world war lord. He never finished the forms because he got swept away by the Macarena.

Asked what a democratic government does for its people, he answers "oppresses them." He went into the office intending to hypnotize the paper-pushers into quick approval, but finds there is no power strong enough to battle the malaise of immigration stagnation.

This culminates when Nandor is trying to recite the oath of allegiance to his new country and fire comes shooting out of his mouth on the word "god."







Jenna's bat-form is not very realistic, which is tortuously problematic and sadly silly. It has always bothered me, as it apparently does Jenna, that vampires don't lose their clothing whenever they turn into bats. Laszlo (Matt Berry) finally gives a definitive answer to how this is magically taken care of: don't get bogged down in the details.




I hope they bring Collins girlfriend back. She was a bigger energy drain than he was. Together they could do some serious damage.



I also really liked half of the episode where Lazlo got taken (in bat form) by animal control. That storyline was great. The Nadja and her centuries old reincarnated boyfriend was just okay. It was funny when Nandor stole the bat and released it and then him and Collin were pissed because they thought Lazlo was being ungrateful when he just flew away. Good thing Guillermo was there and figured out he stole the wrong bat. It was funny when the animal control lady was showing her coworker pictures of Lazlo as a bat and they were laughing that he looked like a British bat and had an erection.
