Continue readingImprovisation On The Set Of What We Do In The Shadows Is Serious Business
“What We Do in the Shadows” is easily one of the funniest shows on television. Taika Waititi and Jemaine Clement’s 2014 mockumentary feature of the same name is a hilarious and constantly amusing comedy that still makes me laugh, but I think the show’s creative team not only honors the film, but surpasses it.
