Season 1
Don't ask what they do outside the shadows.
Synopsis
What We Do in the Shadows (2019), Season 1 — ten episodes of mockumentary comedy on FX, all available to watch online on iFILM. Three vampires have shared a Staten Island house for centuries. The documentary crew has just arrived.
Season 1 kicks off when their ancient overlord, Baron Afanas, shows up and reminds the group what they were sent to America to accomplish: total domination of the New World. Nandor, Lazslo, and Nadja respond by wading into Staten Island city council politics, reigniting an old feud with the local werewolves, and paying a diplomatic visit to Manhattan's vampire elite. Energy vampire Colin Robinson quietly feeds on coworkers' frustration at the office. Guillermo, Nandor's human familiar, keeps hoping for a transformation that never quite arrives.
Spun off from Taika Waititi and Jemaine Clement's 2014 film, the show builds its own comedic logic fast. Season 1 is the best kind of pilot season — the characters snap into focus immediately, the world's rules feel lived-in, and the jokes land harder than they should. Stream What We Do in the Shadows Season 1 online on iFILM.
