TV Demand Australia gets spooky with What We Do In The Shadows

Coming off the back of the season three finale, What We Do In The Shadows has topped the overall Australian chart.

The show is an American mockumentary comedy horror television series created by Flight of the Conchords' Jemaine Clement. The series is based on the 2014 film of the same name written by Clement and Taika Waititi

The series follows four vampire roommates in Staten Island. In August 2021, What We Do In The Shadows was renewed for a fourth season, ahead of the third season premiere.

This week What We Do In The Shadows scored 24.25 points above market average in Australia and didn’t crack the top 10 in New Zealand.

Over in New Zealand, Last Week Tonight With John Oliver won out for the second week in a row, with people tuning after a recent update that Minnesota business Zumbrota Ford had taken on and created an ad for their business written by the Last Week Tonight writers. The video quickly went viral, even getting a shout out from Ford CEO Jim Farley.

This week Last Week Tonight With John Oliver scored 16.09 points above market average in New Zealand. 

After wrapping up its second season with an emotional climax and leaving the door open for a third season, Ted Lasso has returned to its place on top of both Digital Original charts this week.
