Based on the 2014 movie by New Zealand comedians Jermaine Clement and Taika Waititi, the mockumentary about vampire flatmates has made a successful (and hysterical) transition from film to TV series. The setting has also moved from New Zealand to Staten Island, which is funny in itself.
The three traditional vampires Nandor, Laszlo and Nadja, are joined by bespectacled cubicle troll Colin Peterson, an energy vampire who alternately pisses off and bores the living and undead, feeding off their negative energy. Also in the cast is hapless Guillermo, who has been familiar-zoned by Nandor, and Lazslo and Nadja's own succession of familiars, who have the longevity of a Spinal Tap drummer.
This show gets better and better every week, and has just been picked up for a second season. Like Nandor the Relentless, the great acting and writing, well, never relents.
