Oh, it’s a glorious occasion! Don the walls with crepe paper. Call over a few virgins for dinner. Make sure the werewolves haven’t peed on the front lawn. For on this day, we will celebrate the renewal of FX’s What We Do in the Shadows. The vampire comedy is getting a second season!

Based on the hilarious 2014 film from Taika Waititi and Jemaine Clement, What We Do in the Shadows follows not the vampires of Wellington from the film, but the vampires of Staten Island as they take over the nights. The energy and comedy that was present in the film carried over to the TV show like butter. Kayvan Novak (Nandor), Matt Berry (Laszlo), and Natasia Demetriou (Nadja) are true comedy gold as the vamp trio.

FX’s president of original programming, Nick Grad, finds that What We Do in the Shadows is a great addition to their lineup.

“Jemaine Clement, Taika Waititi and Paul Simms have more than delivered on the high expectations of Shadows fans by adapting the cult classic for television and building a passionate base of new and returning fans. We also want to thank the rest of the creative team, including Scott Rudin, Garrett Basch and Eli Bush, and the incredible cast and crew for delivering such a fun and original series, and we look forward to working with them all on season two.”

People are loving the show, as well. The show trends on Twitter during and after each episode airs. It has been noted that among the 34 comedy shows that have debuted on cable in 2019, What We Do in the Shadows ranks in the top 5. Pretty impressive, yeah?

The first season ends when the 10th episode airs on Wednesday, May 29th. If you haven’t caught any of the previous episodes, I highly suggest you to do so. Each episode has great comedic moments, and the lore that is being created for this world expands with each episode. And the costuming? Love it. Also, watch for a 2 episode stint from Doug Jones as the Baron Afanas.

What We Do in the Shadows airs Wednesdays at 10pm on FX. Have you been keeping up with the vamps? What’s been your favorite moment so far? Let us know over on our Twitter, reddit, and The Horror Movie Fiend Club on Facebook. BAT!
