Don’t go, “What We Do in the Shadows”! Don’t leave us! Yes, we’re in denial about this being the sixth and final season of this wonderful comedy about vampires living in a falling-down mansion in Staten Island. Even the logline is brilliant, and that is rarely the case: “After a very brief stint as a full-blown vampire, Guillermo (Harvey Guillén) is re-evaluating his life. Who is he if not a familiar who will do anything to please his Master in hopes of one day being turned into a vampire? Meanwhile, the vampires are reevaluating, too. When their former roommate reappears after a 50-year nap, they realize how little they’ve done in half a century — not one goal accomplished, not one dream pursued, not one part of the New World conquered (except for their street and part of Ashley Street).”
