In the news there is the equivalent of a stake in the heart, in the beloved vampire comedy What do we do in the shadows? Production begins on its sixth season in January, and it will be for the last time, an FX source exclusively confirmed to Vulture. Based on the 2014 film of the same name by director Jemaine Clement and Taika Waititi. Shadows It saw us through the early days of the pandemic, gave us one of TV’s greatest love stories, and put Matt Berry and Natassia Demetriou on network television in America with Mark Proksch and Kristen Schaal. Over the course of its career, it has received several Emmy Award nominations, including Outstanding Comedy Series and Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series. The series won the GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding Comedy Series in 2022, and will compete for Outstanding Comedy Series at the Critics Choice Television Awards scheduled to air in January. Star Kayvan Novak was also nominated for Outstanding Actor in a Comedy Series, with Harvey Guillén — who turned the familiar Guillermo into a critically acclaimed breakout role — nominated for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series. While the sun shines on this dark and weird little show, sure to break a million hearts, it’s just a campaign for fans to stay away for six seasons and two films.
