THE LAST SEASON OF WHAT WE Do In The Shadows was a carnival of the bizarre: vampire nightclubbing, supernatural night markets, home renovation and energy vampire Colin Robinson (Mark Proksch's) bizarre cycle of regeneration from Baby Colin back to his beige, adult self. But perhaps the craziest thing yet opens the fifth season: Nandor (Kayvan Novak's) longsuffering human familiar, Guillermo de la Cruz (Harvey Guillén), getting the spotlight.
The last we saw Guillermo, he was so fed up at being eternally fang-blocked by his housemates that he offered to pay his other vamp pal Derek (Chris Sandiford) to finally turn him. Series director and co-executive producer Yana Gorskaya tells Red Alert that the season premiere picks up the story two weeks later. "The big question is: What's happened with Guillermo?" she teases. "Is he or isn't he [a vampire]? And how is that potentially going to play out and impact the house and the dynamics?"
Gorskaya hints that the episode covers a lot of ground, which includes setting up new, ridiculous pursuits for Nandor, Laszlo (Matt Berry), Colin and Nadja (Natasia Demetriou).
