The close of FX ’s What We Do in The Shadows tackled the conception of last , conclusion , and shift in a meta way that was true to the show .
Heading into the serial publication finish of FX’sWhat We Do in The Shadowshere is where we are at : Guillermo ( Harvey Guillen ) has officially been declared part of the Vampire home . As Nandor ( Kayvan Novak ) stated , Guillermo does not go with even people , he belong with them as the warrior he is . Laszlo ( Matt Berry ) and Colin ( Mark Proksch ) have created The Monster ( Andy Assaf ) , who has test he can behave and not go around killing people … other than those who want to diss Nadja ( Natasia Demetriou ) . Nadja , on her end , has select to the human jobs and has been enjoying that normal animation at work .
This last episode was something else . I eff the nostalgia and , even more so , the meta view of it . But more of that in a bit . So we see Nandor and Guillermo have been following up on their promise to become a superhero — gash — sidekick squad . Nandor looks like a vampire version of Tuxedo Mask . He was just missing the cheesy one - liners . Guillermo , on the other hand , is like a cowboy Robin . I would find out that spinoff .
On the other hired hand , Laszlo and Colin are busy sorting out a new development in The Monster ’s life sentence . He has been experiencing intimate maturity , and it is now clip to happen him a married woman . They moot getting The Guide ’s ( Kristen Schaal ) head since The Monster like her , but so does Nandor , so that puts them in a bind . But as they are recording , Guillermo finds out the infotainment crew is done , and they just have a few hours exit . So , of course , this is a cue stick for an experiential crisis . It makes gumption . What surprised me the most was that Nadja was the only one who interpret Guillermo ’s inner turmoil .
Over the years , I have make out to apprise Nadja and Guillermo ’s kinship . She may playact like she does not care , but just like with the human ex-serviceman and staying at that job to look out for him , this clip she goes to Nandor so he can talk to Guillermo , and she is really spot on even in her own inept ways . And with Colin , I think after being arouse by Laszlo , he has been render his hand as a parental advice figure . I have to say , I kinda hop to see it address that Colin remembers Laszlo as a pop before the finale , but it was very on - brand to have such a random ending . I enjoyed that it just feel like things will continue as steady after the camera are off . I still have so many questions , though …
As Guillermo ’s world comes crashing down , that is where things go meta as he see a part of his lifespan is coming to an end . I think this was a very relatable moment and freak out . Feeling like being pass on behind , stuck , and no sense of belong to . Though at the same time , we know it is part of aliveness , it does not make it any easier when deal with decisiveness , no matter what . I opine it is also part of our nature to bet for closure , and it seemed none of the Vampires were feeling that need for gag rule . In fact , this is not the first fourth dimension they have had a docudrama done . We get to see snip of that preceding documentary film and Jerry was in it .
I loved that despite how chill they seemed and how the Vampires mentioned not much would be convert , we do see how much they have all changed in the past 6 years in one way or another . I would have wish to see other lineament like Simon the circuitous ( Nick Kroll ) — I mean , we see the Witch Hat , so I will unquestionably treasure that little nod . While Guillermo was freak out out about cloture , I also make out that the serial ended the path a normal day would ( though I really enjoyed the Keyser Söze reenactment we got ) . At least we got some Sean ( Anthony Atamanuik ) in it – without all of the " brain scramblies . "
But I sidetrack . I loved that Guillermo come in back after his speech about leaving to permit Nandor get it on that , even though he is quick to move on , that does not mean they can not be friend . I found even more special the fact that Nandor has already been working on his Batman underground lair under his casket , and that he took Guillermo with him to see it . Aww , I am definitely going to omit this show , and I am so glad they did not give us a real ending . I am not quick to say adieu yet . So , I will daydream of a future in which we get aWhat We Do in the Shadowsreunion orspinoff .
