A Change of Scenery (Sort Of)
While the setting remains Staten Island, New York, the vampires find themselves in a surprising new role: leaders. The Vampiric Council, who previously held all the power, met an unfortunate end.
Suddenly, our clueless vampires are in charge, completely unprepared. Hilarity, as you can imagine, ensues.
Nandor's Existential Crisis
Poor Nandor the Relentless is having a bit of an identity crisis. He's tired of being a fearsome warrior and craves something more meaningful.
He starts exploring new hobbies, from fitness crazes to online dating, leading to some truly bizarre and laugh-out-loud moments.
Nadja's Ambitions
Nadja, ever the ambitious one, sees this leadership position as a chance to finally achieve some respect. She has big plans for the Vampiric Council.
Her methods are, well, let's just say they're not exactly diplomatic, and often backfire in spectacular fashion.
Laszlo's…Laszlo-ness
Laszlo Cravensworth remains a delightful enigma. He is always supporting Nadja, even with the absurdity that comes along the way.
He also finds himself on a rather unexpected side quest, which involves some interesting scientific pursuits and a very important hat.
Colin Robinson's…Evolution?
Energy vampire Colin Robinson continues to drain the life out of everyone with his tedious stories and monotonous routines. But wait, there's a twist!
This season throws us a curveball with Colin. He's… changing. The changes are both shocking and strangely touching.
The Hilarious Human Element
Let's not forget Guillermo De la Cruz, Nandor's long-suffering familiar. He has hidden powers, making him a vampire killer.
Guillermo's secret abilities are constantly tested. He is protecting the vampires that he serves.
