Season two spent a lot of time exploring Guillermo’s double life. On the one hand, he’s a subservient familiar to Nandor, forever hoping he’ll actually get his wish of being transformed into a vampire; on the other, he’s a direct descendent of Dracula nemesis Van Helsing and has newly discovered, deadly accurate vampire-slaying powers. “Resurrection” picked up from the season one reveal of Guillermo’s heritage, showing his incredible skill in taking down all the vampire assassins who’re trying to murder his roommates…while secretly hiding his prowess from everyone in the house (other than the ever-present camera crew, of course). Comedy gold, and a theme that built as the season progressed.
