What We Do in the Shadows is back for one last chaotic batch of episodes, with season 6 officially bringing an end to the FX mockumentary show. Season 5 concluded in August 2023, so there's been a bit of a wait since we last saw What We Do in the Shadows' hilarious cast. The previous installment featured Guillermo hiding out in fear that Nandor would kill him for becoming a vampire. Though they eventually reconciled, Guillermo's hesitations when it came to taking victims led Nandor to turn his former familiar back into a human.

The new dynamic between Guillermo and the vampires might be different in What We Do in the Shadows season 6, but that doesn't mean he will be out of their lives. Nadja and Nandor, in particular, ensure that Guillermo doesn't get a new job without their involvement. The final season will also introduce the group's long-lost fifth roommate, who they completely forgot about, but will unveil how little progress the vampires have made in their mission to conquer North America.

Why What We Do In The Shadows Is Ending With Season 6
The Show Wasn't Technically Canceled

While longtime fans of What We Do in the Shadows probably hoped that the show would never end, season 6 will officially be the last batch of episodes for the series. FX chairman John Landgraf explained why What We Do in the Shadows was ending, claiming that the show hit "a natural conclusion." That said, it doesn't seem like the show was necessarily canceled, as cast members have also been outspoken about how they feel the show is ending at the right time. With Guillermo's journey with the Staten Island vampires becoming more complicated, it could be time for the group to go their separate ways or at least stop being the subjects of the documentary crew.
