I adore folding Kristen Schaal's character into a (permanent?) member of the main group.

The wraiths are one of my favorite jokes about the Vampire Council. Goodness, there are a lot of them.

I really hope that since the show cast the Sklar brothers as the home improvement bros that we get to see them in person with our group. I also loved the very chill djinn and his gentle way of making people dead again.

I appreciate the fact that we all already know that the djinn's outrageous number of wishes is going to run out just before something important or dramatic, and yet also given this show's writing skill (this goddamn show made me laugh at both "updog" and "superb owl") I eagerly look forward to that particular shoe dropping

was it just me, or was the baby-that-crawled-out-of-the-torso-of-the-dead-collin-robinson (BTCOOTTOTDCR?) just reciting the digits to Pi when asked for the PIN to the bank card? And wouldn't that have been on brand for Collin Robinson, as an energy vampire, to laboriously type in (likely 256) digits of Pi while people behind him in line suffered?
