I was really looking forward to this series but also kind of worried, especially as I'm not a huge fan of mockumentary TV series like The Office even if I do enjoy them as films, like Man Bites Dog.

Anyway, my worries appear to have been misplaced. The show is hilarious. In fact, I can't remember the last time I laughed as hard as I did with the werewolf fight scene. Hell, I'm chuckling just now thinking about it, and that was like 3 days ago.

Also, it has Matt Berry from The IT Crowd (Renholm), so...

loved the movie, but can't quite imagine it outside the context of a NZ setting. A *NY* setting for instance would surely rob it of its uniqueness.

*If* you liked the What We Do In the Shadows film, then the NZ tv program 'Wellington Paranormal' acts as somewhat of a spin-off, featuring the quirky Kiwi coppers from the film as they engage in X-Files-lite investigations, with often amusing results ..


... *edit* ok, I just had a peek at a preview of the US version of the show and it looks pretty damn awesome. I might have to bite.
