10/9c
In another brilliant outing for TV’s funniest vampires, their crumbling Staten Island manor becomes the latest project for the fictional home-improvement show
Go Flip Yourself—hosted by the unctuous Dalton Brothers (played by the Sklar brothers, Jason and Randy). As the spot-on spoof of HGTV-style TV ensues, the bros are welcomed by super-fan Laszlo (Matt Berry), though not so much by Nadja (Natasia Demetriou), until they tempt her with a gold-plated “throne.” They’re not lying when they call this their “toughest renovation yet,” starting with the pervasive smell of sulfur with “notes of decomposing animals.” And don’t get loyal human sidekick Guillermo (Harvey Guillén) started on their plans to open the place up to “tons of natural light.”
