FX Has Renewed “What We Do in the Shadows” for a Third Season!
The second season of FX’s “What We Do in the Shadows” has arguably been even better than the first, expanding upon the world in hilarious and wonderfully absurd ways, and we’re excited to report tonight that the vampire mockumentary series – which is of course a spinoff of the same-titled movie – has been renewed by FX for an upcoming third season!
Season two, meanwhile, will wrap up on June 10th.
Viewership is up for the second season, Deadline reports, which would explain why FX has eagerly ordered up another batch of episodes. Deadline explains, “FX said that the second season, which is averaging 3.2M total viewers across linear and digital platforms, including FX on Hulu, through its first six episodes, was up 25% on season one.”
Matt Berry, Kayvan Novak, Natasia Demetriou, Harvey Guillén and Mark Proksch star in “What We Do in the Shadows,” based on Jemaine Clement and Taika Waititi‘s 2014 film.
The series follows the lives of four vampires living together in Staten Island, New York. The second season has seen vampire Nandor’s human familiar Guillermo struggling with the realization that he’s a born vampire killer, part of the legendary Van Helsing family of slayers, while “energy vampire” Colin Robinson has been growing stronger than ever before.

Emily Mortimer, Manny Jacinto, and Thomasin McKenzie Join ‘Fallout’ Season Three
Today, Prime Video announced that Emily Mortimer (Relic), Manny Jacinto (The Acolyte), and Thomasin McKenzie (Victorian Psycho, Eileen) have joined the cast of Season Three of Fallout.
The hit series begins production on its third season this month in Los Angeles.
The series based on the video games tells “the story of haves and have-nots in a world in which there’s almost nothing left to have. Two hundred years after the apocalypse, the gentle denizens of luxury fallout shelters are forced to return to the irradiated hellscape their ancestors left behind—and are shocked to discover an incredibly complex, gleefully weird, and highly violent universe waiting for them.“
The series stars Ella Purnell (Yellowjackets, Sweetpea), Aaron Moten (Emancipation, Father Stu), Walton Goggins (The White Lotus, The Righteous Gemstones), Kyle MacLachlan (Twin Peaks), Moisés Arias (The King of Staten Island), Frances Turner (The Boys), Annabel O’Hagan (Rent Free), and Dave Register (FBI).
Aaron Paul (Anything But Ghosts) has also joined the cast for Season Three, as previously announced.
Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wagner serve as executive producers, creators, and showrunners.
