Go Flip Yourself

"Go Flip Yourself" is the eighth episode of the fourth season of the American mockumentary comedy horror television series What We Do in the Shadows, set in the franchise of the same name.

According to Nielsen Media Research, the episode was seen by an estimated 0.287 million household viewers and gained a 0.09 ratings share among adults aged 18–49.

Simon reveals that he and his followers pitched and produced 150 episodes of Go Flip Yourself in order to gain access to the vampires' house, also admitting that Toby was actually a regular human whom he got involved into architecture.

Club gave the episode a "B+" grade and wrote, "One of the great things about What We Do In The Shadows is that it so rarely repeats a joke.

With the whole of the undead experience to sink its fangs into, the series is usually willing to go full-tilt into a fresh idea every single week — and 'Go Flip Yourself' is, mostly, a great example of that energy.

That goes all the way up to the central conceit of the episode, which swaps out the documentary crew that normally records the State Island vamps' bloody antics with the team behind Laszlo's favorite home-reno show, Go Flip Yourself.

"[5] Tony Sokol of Den of Geek wrote, "'Go Flip Yourself' is a well-constructed comic episode, fully committing to the absurdity of every possible action.

The installment not only pokes holes in the infrastructure of DIY shows, but tears the foundation of What We Do in the Shadows' own mock-doc-horror-schlock genre to its silliest core.

"[6] Melody McCune of Telltale TV gave the episode a 4.5 star rating out of 5 and wrote, "Overall, 'Go Flip Yourself' is a stellar show-within-a-show presentation, parodying home renovation series while doing it with What We Do in the Shadows' trademark Gothic flair, sharp-as-a-stake wit, and plenty of horse saddles for Nandor's man cave.
