The Curse episode really made me laugh. One of funnier, emotional episodes that somehow have made my day better.

One of the better eps of this show
mnpsny21 May 2021
A perfect mixture of olde world superstition and modern tech. The mailer-daemon tag was particularly inspired. This installment is one of the more apt examples of why I love this show's particular blend of humour. WWDITS is definitely in my top ten favorite programmes of all time. Kudos to the writing staff, directors, and actors that bring it all to such vibrant life.

Ten Other People
Hitchcoc3 September 2022
Nando uses Guillermo's computer to get his e-mails. In it is a chain letter where a curse is promised if orders are not followed. The problem is they don't know any e-mail addresses to write to. So they begin to gather whatever they can get. Guillermo ends up with that mosquito/vampire killer group. They have targeted a house. At first Guillermo thinks it's the house of the vampire, but they have picked somewhere else. Al place full of zombies and other creatures. Once again, our hero, who is constantly maligned, must save their bacon with no gratitude. There is a funny scene as everyone goes to bed.

both A and B plots work

Warning: Spoilers
Writing this from 2023 and catching up to the current S5. This is a standout episode, where both the A and B plots are good. The vampires trying to deal with technology manages to avoid the more obvious comedy as they attempt to interpret things from their weirdly blinkered perspective.

Guillermo's plotline is even better. I love it when they try to balance his wish to be a vampire vs his fate to be a slayer. He does the badass slayer thing so well, it's frustrating how little we get to see it. And it turns out that much later on, this story has important surprising consequences. This show is so good at bringing back an old plotline in a way you could never guess.

However (and this is not a spoiler because it's not followed up on, at least not that I've seen) I got the strange impression that Craig Robinson's character was a vampire who was cleverly eliminating the competition by starting a vampire-slaying group. What other explanation could there be for them attacking a vampire house at night? Hmm. Maybe another plotline that will reappear when we least expect it? Either way, Robinson is worth bringing back for another episode or two.

The Curse

Killing vampires will never not be funny, but the email stuff was great too. Please allow them to explore technology more in future episodes.

HOPE IT FINDS ITS MAGIC AGAIN
aakshiisrivastava1 May 2020
Don't get me wrong I love this show soooo much that I'll watching anything they put out but after reading some negative season 2 reviews I can't help but compare between the two seasons and without a doubt season 1 had a purpose, the jokes clicked. All in all it was the whole package. Ive watched it three times already lol. Anyway, this episode was fun and a 7/10 imo.I wish there was more going on. Really liked the Nandor guillermo interaction at the end tho.

Weakest episode so far
wookiemaster300017 June 2020
Very surprised at this being one of the highest rated episodes. A lot of the jokes fell very flat. I love the cringey humor but a lot of it was just too cringey.
