When you think about an ideal parent, you may not imagine Laszlo Cravensworth. But the hundreds of years old vampire stepped into that role at the end of season three of FX’s What We Do in the Shadows. As the trailer for season four shows, he’s trying to raise a young Colin Robinson. And we wouldn’t exactly call Colin Robinson a cute toddler. But even still, Laszlo is trying to do right by the child. Our favorite trio of vampires and the best familiar ever are up to more antics besides parenthood though.
The trailer shows that Nandor struggles to find a new wife. He’s apparently so desperate that he makes a wish on a genie’s bottle to bring back all of his dead wives. All 37 of them. Guillermo’s look says it all.
While Laszlo stays busy playing dad, Nadja turns her eyes to business. She’s always been the most enterprising of the group. Her ambition has no bounds. And she now has a nightclub called Nadja’s. And though Nadja’s ideas are amazing, they don’t always go according to her plans. We have a hunch not all will go swimmingly with the nightclub. I do want the best for Nadja though. It’s the least she deserves.
The synopsis for season four of What We Do in the Shadows describes just what we would hope for and expect from the new season.
What We Do in the Shadows follows four vampires, and their human familiar, who’ve “lived” together for hundreds of years. Season four continues to make the case for blood and comedy with more strange beasts, surprising guest stars and tap dancing than ever. And this time with just a touch of home renovation.
No show can blend that blood and comedy like this one. What We Do in the Shadows returns to FX for season four on July 12.
