I wasn't expecting to like it that much but I watched the pilot three times in 24 hours and am still itching to watch it again. I've probably never seen so much hilarity jam-packed into 28 minutes. Nadja, the female vampire, was the standout to me, everything she did and said got a belly laugh from me. I had never seen the movie, so I watched it afterwards and I have to say I greatly preferred the episode. I guess I'm a little worried how the comedy of the show will sustain in the longevity of the show or that it blew its load too quickly, but this was so well done that I'm absolutely hooked now and can't wait for more.

Interesting, care to elaborate?

I loved the movie, and I really enjoyed the first episode.
It will be interesting where they take things because one of my favorite things with the movie was Stu and the werewolf rivalry. So I hope we get stuff like that too on the show. I thought that the guy in the park who insults Laszlo might be a way that the show is doing that because that was one of my favorite parts of the pilot, and maybe they could delve into that more later on. Or there more New Yorkers that are prejudiced against vampires? Is it for personal reasons or xenophobia? Will there be werewolves or other creatures of the night that hate vampires?
I also thought the introduction of the energy vampire was a great way to make the show different from the movie, and also I guess help get around the issue of the vampires killing off innocent virgins that Guillermo finds.

I hope this show can stay consistently funny because it was another great episode tonight.
It was brilliant putting the energy vampire into the city council setting, and also having Nandor and Laszlo cause so much trouble.
I also really love Nadja and how having one of the leads be a woman puts a different spin on things than the film but still funny.

While I do somewhat worry about the longevity of a series like this, the first two episodes have been hilarious and I can’t wait to watch the rest of the season.

Don't know if anyone here is watching this but Episode 7 was wild.

Last 2 episodes have been really great. The cameos in episode 7 were hilarious.

I'm still trying to figure if I like Lazlo or Colin Robinson more... God, this is great so far.

Having the 90 year old baby vampire at the trial was just amazing.

I looooove the film but have only see the pilot of the show so far. Curious to see how it expands on the concept.

I watched both season over the last week and it's really great stuff. The film offered endless possibilities and they're having so much fun with it. Matt Berry is great in everything but he does wonders here (and I love his relationship and chemistry with Demetriou). Feldstein is also a lot of fun and Proksch has never been cast so perfectly. S01E07 killed me -- those cameos were out of this world.

Making Kristen Schaal a season regular and Baby Colin Robinson are the two best things to happen to this show in a long time. Finished up this last season a couple weeks ago and it's my favorite since S1. Novak continues to kill it especially with the genie plotline and the rest of the cast are still going strong.
my only pet peeve is can they change up the damn intro already? The concept of putting these characters on art and old photos showing them living through the centuries is hilarious and the possibilities with that are endless, but they still have the same intro after all these years.

I’m fine with this decision. I always hate to see one of my favorite shows end, but better than it dragging on for too long.
