He also talks about the evolution of Nadja Doll, from one episode to series regular, and all the wild things they've been able to do with her.
The Big Picture [Editor’s note: The following contains spoilers for the “Hybrid Creatures” episode of What We Do in the Shadows.]In the “Hybrid Creatures” episode of the FX comedy series What We Do in the Shadows, Laszlo has taken his experiments with Guillermo to a whole new level, creating hybrid animals that each have their own personality.
When you work on a show like this, does it feel like, if you can think it up, they will find a way to make it work? JONES: Exactly. In the original script, we knew we wanted a frog because it was just a nice way to start with something small and gross. We knew we wanted a rat. We knew we wanted a dog. But then, they talked about maybe a lizard that had cat elements mixed with Harvey. They were talking about taking two animals and combining them, and then having Harvey in the middle, but we felt that just looked too busy. We wanted to keep it simple and make them identifiable.
JONES: The beauty and curse of this show is the handheld element. We never really stay on anything that long. We’re moving around so much. So, I knew I could take what was essentially prosthetic makeups and get away with a little bit more than what you would be able to do, say on The Avengers or something like that, where you get these big close-ups. Our show is a frenetic handheld mockumentary.
JONES: I think that’s a lot to do with Natasia [Demetriou]’s performance, as well as the fact that it’s so ridiculous. No one’s ever had a tiny childlike doll be as abusive and sarcastic and offensive as our character is. That’s the charm of the character. But the funny thing about our puppet is that it was written for one episode. We brought it out, filmed it, it got edited and sent off to Disney, and they said, “This puppet’s great.
JONES: That was pretty funny. The great thing about that was that it was entirely practical. The only thing that didn’t work was the button. But all the movements, I switched her on, and then she started moving. It was her head on a whole new body, which we then were able to remove and put her old body back on, for later scenes.
JONES: Absolutely. Nobody delivers a line of filth quite like Matt Berry. No one delivers a naive line quite like Kayvan, as Nandor. Mark is an icon unto himself. Can you imagine anybody else in that role? Can you imagine anybody other than Natasia as Nadja? They’ve made these roles their own, and every week they stay true to character, but it just gets expanded and expanded and expanded. It’s just wonderful.
