Based on the 2014 horror-comedy mockumentary of the same name, "What We Do in the Shadows" follows four vampire roommates as they attempt to survive and thrive in modern-day Staten Island. The show kicks off with Baron Afanas, an ancient vampire from the Old Country, arriving to Staten Island and exclaiming that he wants to take over the entire western hemisphere. Even though this plan interferes with the vampire roommates' mostly care-free lifestyles, the group and their familiars attend a city-council meeting to convince officials to hand over New York. From there, plenty of hijinks and misadventures ensue, with the series's twists, turns, and many jokes always catching us off guard.
