What We Do in the Shadows is not only one of the funniest shows on tv right now but it has become one of my favorite comedies of all-time. It reminds me a little of Seinfeld in which every character on the show is as equally as funny as the others. It's hard to pick out the best and everyone has their own favorite. It's based on the film of the same name and is created by the same people, Taika Waititi and Jermaine Clement. As funny as the movie was the show might be even better. It's one of the rare shows where every single episode is hilarious! There's nothing more I can really say except to go watch this show, I promise you'll love it!

What We Do In the Shadows is one of the best new comedies to come out in years, it's actually one of the funniest comedies I've ever seen! I absolutely loved the movie so I thought this was going to be a letdown but boy was I wrong...EVERY episode is great!

I love this show. The writing and acting are perfect. It makes me laugh out loud. It is so clever.

For any who haven't seen the movie of the same title, it's highly recommended.

I was worried the show wouldn't be able to capture the comedic genius of the movie, but i have not been disappointed in the slightest. It's fantastic!

It's hard to dislike this show. It has so many gifted and just plain funny actors. It's not gut busting humour, but rather a mellow guffaw. How you can muster enmity against a gloriously silly display like this is beyond me.

I LOVED THE MOVIE, and the pilot just gave me the same feeling inside; creeped out, happy, sad, just please. I need at least 40 seasons with 45 min episodes. Thank you

This show is hysterical. Reminds me of the British 'The Office' without the uncomfortableness. Some people said the jokes don't land but that's the point. It's supposed to be awkward. So glad I found this. Not many shows interest me.

Love this show. Great cast and fun show. Colin Robinson is a great character as the energy vampire

The original movie was hysterical from beginning to end and the same folks who wrote and starred in that one, wrote and directed this series. The entire situation is unique and different from anything else on TV, which helps to make it special. Don't miss it!

This show grows on you if you enjoy Halloween and vampires and office comedy and mockumentary style shots. Keep em coming!

This show is Great! Packed with humor, a Great decor, a lot of worldbuilding and Good acting!

Matt Berry as Laszlo Cravensworth is Great in this-you can tell hes having the time of his life with the role.

Mark Proksch, playing Colin Robinson ofcourse nails the dry humor of an energy vampire and is my personal favorite of the vampgang.

Doug Jones as Baron Afanas adds that classic monster vibe hes known for and much like Kirsten Schaal as The Guide it fits the show perfectly.

That said, there are a few misses.

Guillermo, played by Harvey Guillen can be inconsistent and is acted a bit chaotic, hes not a great actor imo.

Kayvan Novaks Nandor also feels a bit inconsistent like he forgot how Nandor would act at times. Nadja, played by Natasia Demetriou is entertaining but her characters quirks can be a bit much at times.

Like i mentioned the shows worldbuilding and overall aesthetic are Great, you can tell a lot of care has gone into every detail. Even Season 4, which gets flak from some fans, brought something fresh and i found it quite enjoyable.

This is a series thats creative, funny, and worth a watch.

What We Do in the Shadows follows a small group of vampires who live together on Staten Island and the adventures they wind up in.

The movie, which follows a different group in Wellington, New Zealand, is excellent and I highly recommend it if you haven't seen it before. If you love the movie, you will love the show! What makes the show better than the movie comes down to the episodic nature of television. The episodic format means plot-lines can begin and end more quickly than the movie, characters can be developed more and they can be thrown into a wider variety of crazy situations. The movie had great world-building but could only do so much with an 85 minute runtime, and the show furthers that simply from having more time.

The show would not work if Taika Waititi and Jemaine Clement, who wrote/directed/acted in the movie, were not onboard. They ensured that the tone, production design, shooting style, and humor were all on par with the film. Thank goodness season 2 is on the way!

Absolutely stupidly hilarious. Doesn't stray from the movie even with different actors. Nandor is my fav as was Taikas part in the movie. Hoping for a season 2 and beyond.

I am not sure why this show is so loved. I own and love the movie and laugh hysterically throughout but this show barely gets me to chuckle. I love the sets and the music but the comedy often falls flat.

My review (#224) will get lost in the shuffle, but I had to add something. I didn't read ALL the reviews, I eventually will have to go to bed, but the ones I did, I agree with, absolutely. This show IS brilliant, funny, dark, twisted and all that other devilishly wonderful stuff. The one thing I feel the need to add is a reference to Colin Robinson, played brilliantly by Mark Proksch. Ok, he's not one of the leads, but he's very, very funny in his own right. None of us will EVER know a real vampire (though sure, there are nut jobs who think they ARE real vampires) but we've all met Energy Vampires, THESE FOLKS ARE REAL! And it's great to see Colin interact with the regular vampires and the way they grudgingly accept him as one of their own, in some ways. I just hate the idea that this character and this actor are overlooked because, he's a very funny take on a very real issue. I'm glad he's been getting more screen time this season. Thanks cast, crew, producers for this fantastic show.

I'm a little sad I didn't find this show sooner. I didn't love the first episode, but the good reviews made me keep watching. I felt the exact same way about The Office. And boy am I glad I kept watching both. The office is probably my second favorite show of all time. I've seen the complete series a dozen times and have found it hilarious every single time.

This show quickly developed into The Office, but if the office was a vampire den and all the characters were mythical creatures. I went from finding a few things funny in the first episode to needing to rewind it because I'm laughing so much. Seriously, the funniest show since the office.

(Updated after Season 6).

Four vampires and their human helper share a house on Staten Island, New York. Turns out vampires have domestic problems too.

What We Do In The Shadows, the movie, was released in 2014. Co-written and -directed by Jermaine Clement (Flight of the Conchords) and Taika Waititi (Boy, Hunt for the Wilderpeople, Eagle vs Shark, Jojo Rabbit) it was brilliant: with wonderfully understated humour, sharp dialogue and clever skits it was quirkily funny and intelligent without becoming silly or even seeming to try too hard.

The movie was set and filmed in Wellington, New Zealand and captured the folksy understated humour that is a New Zealand trademark. When I discovered that the series is set in the US, I had my doubts as to how it would measure up to the movie, figuring it had been hijacked by US producers and writers.

I needn't have worried.

Clement and Waititi are the executive producers and lead writers, so, while the setting has changed, the creative geniuses behind the movie are behind the series too. The series largely captures the same quirky, understated humour of the movie, but with different characters and actors, and the new players don't put a foot wrong.

Not entirely the same feel as the movie: the movie felt more candid (as was ostensibly filmed by a documentary crew), giving it a slight edge but there is little to choose between the two.

For five seasons the quality and freshness of the show did not waiver showing that the writers hadn't run out of ideas. The show also had a long-term story arc, making it even more interesting.

In Season 6, the final season, does feel a bit stale and doesn't quite have the zip of the previous seasons. It's still great but just not in the same league as what came before.

A good thing then that it ended as otherwise it would definitely have overstayed its welcome. Kudos to the producers for pulling the plug when they realised that the show had run its course.

This show is so funny and refreshing. In the midst of all the new vampire, witches, magic shows that are on your tv now, this show is so well crafted. The writing, directing and special effects are so much fun to watch.

Short and sweet version....This is absolutely the funniest show on

This has got to be one of the most hysterically funny comedies on TV. Just as funny as the movie, which is a rarity. For that half hour or so that I'm watching this, I forget all my troubles, it's that indescribably hilarious. I can't decide who is the funniest, everyone is a star. (But Colin Robinson belly dancing for Nandor's ascension day celebration - well, don't get me started. And every time Laszlo says the F word I absolutely lose it. He's a comedy genius).

This is the best show on tv at the moment, from the wonderfully crafted writing to the perfectly timed acting from a fantastic cast! First show in a while to make me audibly laugh.

A nice light comedy of dark humor. If you like Dracula: Dead and Loving It and Young Frankenstein, or just a fan of laughing I highly recommend this.

Beautiful series, so funny, wacky and insane....always makes me laugh out loud....bat!

This jumped the shark. The talented writers must have left. It went from the best to the worst in one season. The characters just babble. The mini me Collin Robinson isn't interesting. Nothing is creative, funny original or entertaining. Either revamp the writing staff or just quit.
