I don't really get shipping - most of the time I think they don't make sense or would ruin the narrative, BUT this is honestly one of the most realistic ships ever and there's a lot of interesting story potential. I think people are crazy if they absolutely deny that this ship is possible.

If you don't ship Nandor and Guillermo at least a little, you're watching the show wrong.

when nandor said hes a little rayscul i felt that

And realistic too

With Guillermo’s favourite cosplay 🥺

Probably.

Yes

"My sweet, sweet guillermo"

There is no such thing as an American accent though.

@@user-ih4fd9sf8x An isn’t just singular. Since there are many accents in the USA, it’s perfectly correct to refer to one of those accents as ‘an American’ accent

I-

Nandor is also called a "big sleeper" which alludes to his super slumber

s4 we're just gonna find out that Sean is actually psychic but too dumb to interpret his own visions

STOPPPP THIS SHOW 😭😭

There are actually quite a lot of foreshadowing in the show (with light and the Baron for instance)

i'd like to think nandor's just always been like that

It was implied in Dracula that the Count suffered brain damage after becoming a vampire, so…

I have an eccentric personality now.

Would we be eccentric or just more ourselves?

Too late.

YUP! That was hot! (Obviously don't do that to a human without their consent.)

100%

And Guillermo says "why do you think I've been living with you this whole time?" right before Nandor tells him he won't turn him, now he has all the more reason to believe he would leave. The whole turning Gail into a vampire thing shows he's okay with turning people, so they can be together. But Gail also left. The poor man has just been abandoned way too many times 😭

Nandor also keeps casually calling Guillermo ‘sweet’, ‘boyish’ and ‘little rascal’, wich sort of indicates that he thinks of Guillermo as someone pure and innocent, who would never do anything truly evil. It also shows that he’s clearly extremely fond of Guillermo. So at first he probably didin’t want to turn him because he didin’t want him to become corrupted (and maybe also because he thought Guillermo would be an awful Vampire), sort of like you secretly wish for a puppy never to grow out of it’s adorable playful phase. But it shifted into Guillermo also becoming a genuine source of Joy for Nandor and he didin’t want him to leave, so he decides to string him along. It’s when their power dynamic started shifting that Nandor is suddenly throwing himself into romance and looking for a mate (who are all either emotionally unavailable and decidedly less ‘innocent’ than Guillermo or flat out entirely romantically unavailable for Nandor), despite being relatively uninterested in that previously. He’s pre-emptively trying to replace Guillermo, so that he won’t be as hurt when Guillermo inevitably leaves him once he’s turned. While he was clearly bullshitting about testing Guillermo with the fight, what he said after - about Guillermo being ready to be turned - was probably genuine. He sees that Guillermo is fine without him and doesn’t need his protection anymore and so he decides to have some fun last moments of travel together and then let him go. I have a hunch that even if Nandor does have romantic feelings towards Guillermo, he probably keeps himself from acting on them, because he doesn’t think of himself as deserving of someone ‘pure’ like Guillermo. Wich is ironic cause I find season 3 Guillermo sort of terrifying.

@@sweetasbloodredjam you described it perfectly

@@sweetasbloodredjam Yes to everything you wrote! Preach

The black market is my favorite episode bc of this lmao

he's so me

I feel like that was the initial thought but the more he liked Guillermo's company the more he wished to not give him the actual burden that is to be a vampire- but I feel like in this latter season they are completely ignoring the problematic cause Guillermo's not bugging Nandor about it (cause he is one now) and Nandor is in peace with that- although a little jealous (at first) for Guillermo's lack of attentions BUT WHY AREN'T THEY INTERACTING MORE? I can't wait for the big finale of the season

Oh my god yes I thought that was so out of character of him but thinking about it he actually was surely pining after a year being alone without Guillermo

And the way he towled him off! Nandor has really started to cherish Guillermo, in his own way!😊

Its also a werewolf joke about dogs using heart worm medication called heartguard. Lol

Hidden underneath the comedy of this show is real character arcs and foreshadowing it’s actually really clever and mind boggling

No literally. Like he is the best character in anything ever. Most perfect man in existence :)

What you guys said ^^^

I KNOW RIGHT?! Guillermo is so perfect! A badass yet sensitive, sweet, and kind, I would marry him in a heartbeat 💓 He is my absolute favorite!

He definitely pays attention! 😊

(Affectionate)

babes, you should see Cruella. His hair there is as beautiful as in the wellness center

His hair as a whole is such a treat to the eyes!

AND HE WORE THE GAY SHIRT

And his shorts!! Seeing his thighs made me weak

literally

Fully expect mainstream TV (or even semi-indie tv) to disappoint you, just for your mental health. They're cute but it's right in the spot of "slightly homophobic joking about them being gay and loving declarations but we make sure they say friendship" that says queerbait every time imo

@@Gamerkat10 youre most definitely right but i just cant accept it 😭

@@ciaraslattery4894 Try man, for your health. this shit will only waste your time (and time's money, that's why they want it)

@@Gamerkat10 Nah, they'd totally do it for a show like this.

he was relieved

@@azamitani6405 he was relieved he was confident he was an enraged gay who had been mildly inconvenienced by his own moronsexuality being exclusively attracted to the dumbest goddamn vampire on the planet. I cannot.

@@Sellswordking i have never heard a more perfect description

@@azamitani6405 thank you, friend. I definitely think about this show a Normal Human Amount.

@@Sellswordking same 😳

The way he sounds like a COMPLETELY different person. Like I didn't even believe that was Kayvan's voice for a moment.

It's perfection

@@fifirodriguez52 it’s NOT???? I thought they like, dubbed over or something

16:57 for my own purposes

@@maxfitz8577 According to an interview at the ComicCon panel, all the duplicate Nandor voices were Kayvan. He's a voice actor, so he knows how to mimic.

season 1 hinted that the power dynamic was slowly changing and even though he only recently found out he was a "vampire hunter" he's definitely had the power inside gim for longer

*him

thoughts on s4 so far? :))

@@katiefinnegan7948 I like it a lot. I feel that each season, Guillermo steps out a bit more and stands up to Nandor and the others. Their dynamic has really changed this season (not to how I thought it would go, like omg) but I'm happy that Guillermo is happy and also that Nandor is slowly figuring stuff out for himself. So I'm very interested to see how things play out for the remainder of this season (these djinn wishes are killing me, especially from this most recent episode T-T Soft nandor ugh my weak spot)

and Guillermo means "determined protector"

Guillermo's "fuck Jeremy!!" Line is one of my favorite deliveries in the series, it's so funny

That and their fight is so good

please i just finished s3 last night and the way guillermo grabbed nandor’s hand while running just give me all kind of feels 😭

iS iT?

You've put exactly how I feel into words

There’s a brilliant fic on ao3, Baby Steps by katiemariie, that tackles it perfectly imo. :3

the scene where laszlo tells everyone why he actually doesn't want to go back to england was very sweet and heartfelt though and it didn't feel out of place at all to me so i'm not too worried

Tbh though, have faith because Taika just proved that a show can be funny and have romantic and somewhat serious tone to it as well. I understand that this show is a lot different from Our Flag Means Death, but he also knows what he's doing and how to kind of change things up while still keeping a show interesting and good for its' original viewers.

@@beebear44 oh yeah taika is a genius. having watched both of those shows recently, i can confirm they're incredible, and if wwdits takes a similar approach to tenderness as ofmd then i know it won't feel out of place at all. wwdits has done a great job so far at working the gentle moments into the comedy, so i'm optimistic ^^

I keep rewatching it

The way his hair flew!

i'd say around 200+

same (T_T)

PLEASE NO my heart

If that happens I picture Nandor looking for away to cure his vampirism so they can grow old together

That's something I've wondered about ever since that first episode revealing Guillermo's van Helsing DNA. Can he even safely turn into a vampire, or is he unable to b/c he's genetically hardwired to kill them?? And if he even does turn, would he get sick due to his conflicting natures 🤔

@@thejasminedragonmerchant6843 I've thought nearly the same thing! Nothing has ever been easy for Guillermo to achieve, and I think *season 5 spoiler*: that it won't be as easy as Guillermo handing Derek a bunch of cash and asking him to turn him. Either it won't be successful because of his DNA, or something or someone will pop in just as it's about to happen and delay his change for the foreseeable future

@@elouisrosenberg yeah! There's no way that it will be that easy after all this time. And the creators of this show can be beautifully cruel like that *cough cough* Colin *cough cough*

i agree and thank you (●´ϖ`●)

I think it could be so impactful if they did it correctly and not rushed. It's such a hard dynamic to progress through narratively but I think they could do it if they put time into it. Hopefully, I don't believe they would queerbait this much to no end, especially since Guillermo's all but openly stated that he has/has had a thing for Nandor, Nandor's bi/pansexuality, and due to how much the show has connected with a younger lgbtqia+ audience. All of my hope notwithstanding, they might completely throw a bait and switch and have them part amicably at the end of the series without any serious romantic attachment, and that could be fine as well if they did it with conviction. *ALSO SPOILERS FOR SEASON 4* I don't think they would do the twist with Nandor's wife coming back if they weren't planning on eliciting some sort of romantic plot or conflict between Nandor and Guillermo, especially since they write in so many lines for Guillermo about how Nandor having a wife doesn't bother him. (and the fucking scene where Guillermo's carrying the baby Colin Robinson in the sewers and nandor and him act like weird parents).

@@Molly-tv5sv Now that the first two episodes of Season 4 are out I am leaning more towards thinking they will get together than when I made that initial comment. I don't think they'll get together this season, but based on what we've seen so far, I feel like this season is going to be about Guillermo realizing he can do better than Nandor, and Nandor realizing he actually loves Guillermo.

@@lilycheese4 Season 4 ep 3's "I will think about you every time I use it" twist is leaning that way haha

@@Molly-tv5sv Yeah as soon as I saw that episode I knew they were gonna at least address some feelings this season. I'm excited for where they will go!!

that'd be sweet

That would be AMAZING. Reverse vampirism!

Nadja would be pissed 😂

‼️

He said it so sincerely and earnestly!! Gawd!!

**sobs**

Saame

why? lmak

@@alejalalita I think its cause while these two are cute and as much as I would like to see them together. Nandor isnt the best partner he hasnt treated Guillermo well for over 10 years. He takes Guillermo for granted. And he still hasnt fulfilled his promise to make him a vampire. On the other hand dammit I really like their chemistry.

@@hrltdncer I think a good amount of that comes from Nandor being over 800 years old and a former king. He can be oblivious, but I don't think he actually means anything by it. Sounds like he's been depressed since his harem days too

@@hrltdncer I do agree he really didn't treat Guillermo the best, but I think it's because he's very traditional, also I think it has been an attempt to make Guillermo step up for himself. I personally want them to be together so badly, I think their relationship is getting more balanced and it would be nice to have a queer relationship on TV with two brown men, so I'm rooting for it! Also not all queer stories have to be vanilla and perfect, queer stories can have heavy topics.

same, guillermo keeps trying to confess but nandor interrupts him everytime 💀

I need them to get together for s4. I feel like nandor's sad boy journey will make him realize.
