Before we share a look at what's in store next week for Laszlo (Matt Berry), Nadja (Natasia Demetriou), Colin (Mark Proksch), Guillermo (Harvey Guillén), Nandor (Kayvan Novak), and The Guide (Kristen Schaal) when FX's What We Do in the Shadows returns for the next episode of its sixth and final season, we need to get something off our chest. We really, really hate Jerry the Vampire – not as a character by any means and Mike O'Brien is doing a great job. No, we're talking about hating him for all of the right reasons – like the way he treats the vamp fam, and don't get us started on how we saw blood when he grabbed Guillermo. Now that we've gotten that off of our chests, we can pass along the trailer for next week's episode – with "The Railroad" (directed by Kyle Newacheck and written by Sam Johnson and Chris Marcil) finding Laszlo and Colin looking to help Sean (Anthony Atamanuik) find a new job at the railroad that Sean's been told they work at. You see the problem, right? We're not sure their "solution" is any better – as you'll see in the clip above.

What We Do in the Shadows Final Season: New Vamp, Doc Crew Involved

Heading into the show's San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC) 2024 panel, Simms offered some very intriguing intel on what's to come – including Guillermo starting a new life and Colin looking to help Laszlo build a new familiar/best friend. During the SDCC 2024, Berry, Proksch, Schaal, Novak (via Zoom), Simms, and director Kyle Newacheck were on hand to screen the first episode of the final season and tease what's still to come – some of which we've already seen come into the play during the opening episodes. The three big takeaways? We're introduced to our vamps' original roommate, Jerry – and let's just say that his reawakening (they forgot to wake him since 1976) has an impact on the house's dynamic. In addition, we learn where Guillermo's living now and what he's been up to. Finally – and especially interesting – the vampires begin calling into question the whole documentary thing.

Speaking of the documentary crew, Newacheck noted that the story of our usually unseen supporting cast "does get opened up towards the later end of the season in a very meta way that was fun to make." In fact, the director even had a chance to get in on the action. "I will say that I did get to play a director in the show at a certain point while I was directing the show, which was the most meta thing I've ever been a part of. So stay tuned, y'all. It's gonna get wild and weird," Newacheck added.

As an added bonus, you may have noticed at the opening that we mentioned Novak checked in via Zoom – but that wasn't quite right. Novak checked in as Nandor – and had a pretty graphic response when asked if Guillermo was going to come to terms with his feelings for Nandor. "I have to keep my voice down because Guillermo is in the next room, jacking off into his pillow," Nandor shared, saying to someone off camera who was supposed to be Guillermo, "What? No, I wasn't talking about you. Shut the fuck up!"
