Network: FX Productions
No. of episodes: 10 (list of episodes)
Based on the feature film of the same name from Jemaine Clement and Taika Waititi, "What We Do in the Shadows" is a documentary-style look into the daily (or rather, nightly) lives of four vampires who've "lived" together for hundreds of years in Staten Island. After an unexpected visit from their dark lord and leader, the vampires are reminded of what they were initially tasked with upon their arrival in New York City over a century ago -- total and complete domination of the New World. But what exactly is the best way to go about achieving said domination? A vérité camera crew follows along as the vampires set out to answer this query.

What We Do in the Shadows is an American comedy horror series based on the original movie boasting the same name. The tv series is a true velvet pouched, red ruby rendition of decadent deliciousness. Putting a new twist on the vampires, in general, is a high stakes game for sure, then it is my pleasure to say that WWDITS gives us, subpar humans, a refreshing mockumentary glimpse into the window of a clutch of old-world vampires who are navigating the challenges of today's over-complicated pc era. 
Laszlow, Nadja, Colin, and Nandor the Relentless are a superiorly arrogant and bumbling ignorant foursome of dark sarcasm, woven within a web of subtle hilarity that surely will entrap even the snobbiest of sparkly vampire fans. 
Tasked with total world domination, a feast of worth while shenanigans ensue. If biting into clots, er...I mean biting into plots of hosting unsuccessful vampire orgies, ill attempts at dominating the world through stuffy city council meetings, luring naive virginal cosplay geeks for party snacks or pruning a luscious garden topiary of vagina-shaped emerald bushes seems like your flash of flavorful tomfoolery, check out What We Do In The Shadows.
