, everyone is The Dumb One. Guillermo understands how the modern world works, but he’s also painfully naive in his belief that Nandor will one day turn him into a vampire.
There’s a running gag, for instance, about Laszlo being fiercely protective of a hat that is obviously cursed. The slightly more sensible Nadja keeps trying to convince him to get rid of the damned thing, but Laszlo stubbornly refuses, even as he repeatedly gets run over by cars while wearing it. The vampires’ proud, self-destructive myopia only gets funnier the more the show goes there.
In the finale, the vamps are sad to discover that Guillermo has moved out again — not because they miss him, but because they’re completely unable to function without him. Within days, Nandor is wearing a Michael Jordan replica jersey from the 1992 Olympics because he has no idea how to launder his own clothes, or even pick up the ones Guillermo took to the dry cleaner.
This all builds to Clement, as he did last season, reprising his role from the film as Vlad, who lays a trap to capture and execute our resident bloodthirsty morons for what we know are Guillermo’s crimes against vampire-dom.
Like a regular human bartender with a toothpick who looks an awful lot like his roommate, Nandor has a remarkable capacity for bending reality to whatever he wants it to be. Given how horrible our own reality is right now, and how explosively funny this show is, it’s a very welcome power for both the vampires andas a whole. Thank goodness we had these imbeciles to kick around for the last 10 weeks.

The season finale of What We Do in the Shadows reminds me a little of the Seinfeld series finale, in which our anti-heroes are called out for their (hilarious) narcissism.
sepinwall Did not know it was the season finale. Now sad.
This show needs to address Kayvan Novak’s (Nandor) use of blackface in his comedy WWDITS WhatWeDoInTheShadows ShadowsFX
Finale already!? 😭😭😭
This show is ridiculous and I love it.
Tonight’s episode was awesome.
