Okay, let's talk about the third season of What We Do in the Shadows. If you haven't watched it yet, picture this: your weirdest family reunion, but everyone's a centuries-old vampire… and possibly incompetent.
Season three takes everything we loved about the first two and cranks it up to eleven. Like, imagine your neighbor finally figuring out how to use their new grill, but instead of burgers, they're trying to figure out ancient vampire rituals.
New Adventures, Same Hilarious Chaos
The season throws our beloved vamps into all sorts of ridiculous situations. They become leaders of the local Vampiric Council. Picture Nadja trying to run a meeting with all the gravitas of, well, Nadja. It's pure comedy gold.
And then there’s Guillermo, our favorite vampire familiar. He's still trying to navigate life with these undead oddballs. Seriously, his patience is saint-like. I spill my coffee once and I’m a mess, he wards off hordes of vampires!
The Evolution of Lazlo and Nadja
Lazlo and Nadja’s relationship takes some wild turns this season. Let’s just say their bond is tested in ways only a couple who have been together for centuries can truly understand. Think your last disagreement about whose turn it is to do the dishes was bad? Try disagreeing about ancient curses.
Their little ventures and schemes are as always, half baked, poorly thought out and just down right fun to watch unfold. There is so much joy seeing them on screen that it's hard to imagine the show without the two.
Colin Robinson's...Transformation?
Oh, Colin Robinson. The energy vampire gets a storyline that is equal parts bizarre and surprisingly touching. Get ready to see him in ways you never imagined, literally.
No spoilers here, but let’s just say his journey is… unique. If you thought he was dull before, prepare to be amazed. You might even shed a tear. Don't worry, it's probably just from laughing so hard. Or maybe it's a vampire draining you. Who knows?
Speaking of draining, is anyone else fascinated by the amount of food Guillermo prepares for the house? I swear, I could happily eat the food that poor familiar is forced to make.
Why You Need to Watch (or Re-Watch!) Season 3
What We Do in the Shadows is more than just a funny show. It's a comforting blanket made of absurdity. It's the perfect antidote to a stressful day.
Plus, the writing is so sharp, you could cut yourself on it. Every line is quotable, every episode is packed with visual gags. The character development and writing is just absolutely incredible. You may find yourself quoting these characters in your daily life.
And the cast! Kayvan Novak, Matt Berry, Natasia Demetriou, Harvey Guillén, and Mark Proksch are comedic geniuses. They embody their characters so completely. It's like they were born to play these roles.
Honestly, if you need a good laugh and an escape from reality, dive into season three. You won’t regret it. Unless you’re allergic to garlic. Then maybe proceed with caution. Or just watch it from a safe distance. Just watch it!
It’s guaranteed to be the most fun you’ll have watching vampires bumble their way through modern life. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to re-watch it for the tenth time.
