It's not too late to make a spinoff about the werewolves. I'm not sure if werewolf lore says they age or not, but even if they don't age, we will pretend they look the same age as they did here.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A deadpan mockumentary about vampire roommates navigating suburban mundanity with their undead dysfunction. It's absurdist comedy that finds genuine warmth in the chaos of shared living.

Reviews
I love mockumentaries, and I hadn't seen this since before the show came out so I was overdue for a revisit. I think I liked it more after five seasons of the show. Even though the characters are different, I am more invested and attached to the premise. Every moment with Stu is gold, and I love Nick telling everyone he is a vampire.
This is also definitely one of those "not for everyone" comedies, but if you are even considering watching it, you probably know if it's your type of comedy or not.
