What We Do In The Shadows - Ranking Every Major Character Worst To Best

Nadja is perhaps the smartest and most put together character on the show...by default. She once lived in a poor village, but after becoming a vampire, turned Laszlo, and then married him. While she does love Laszlo, she often grows frustrated with his incompetence, constantly having to bail him out of his stupid messes.

One of Nadja's funniest arcs involves a relationship with her human lover Gregor. However, Gregor has been reincarnated as a boring modern day man named Jeff (or Jefsk, if you ask Nadja.) Nadja's frustration that Jeff is not the man he once was leads to hilarious moments, and when she restores all his memories from his past life, making Jeff Gregor once again, it leads to one of the show's funniest sequences.

Nadja in many ways functions as the show's straight character, reacting to the flaws and goofiness of the rest of the cast with stoicism. Part of the genius of her character is the fact that, while we are often supposed to connect with her, groaning as Laszlo's schemes inevitably backfire, we by design can't quite relate to her the way we can with most straight characters, because she is an immortal vampire.
