Warning: Contains minor spoilers for Season 4 of What We Do in the Shadows.
An eyebrow-raising What We Do in the Shadows Roblox reference proves that the platform is striving to move away from the public perception that it’s only for kids.
What We Do in the Shadows, a vampire-themed comedy from Jemaine Clement (Flight of the Conchords) based on the film from Taika Waititi (Thor: Ragnarok), features a comedic look at the lives of three traditional vampires and a so-called “energy vampire.” Energy vampires may not look like traditional vampires, but they survive and thrive by sucking the life out of those around them with their bland personalities.
In the scene that references Roblox, a character named Baby Colin (who bursts out of the energy vampire Colin Robertson’s dead body and is also a probable energy vampire) is playing on a mobile phone in the backseat of a car when the driver asks him what he’s playing.
As the other characters groan, Baby Colin replies that he’s playing Welcome to Bloxburg, which is on Roblox. He then proceeds to mention that characters can build houses and then starts listing all the occupations that a person can assume in Welcome to Bloxburg, including a pizza maker, a woodcutter, or an insurance adjuster. The scene ends here with the implication that Baby Colin hasn’t finished talking.
Pretty sure this is the first time in history Roblox has ever been mentioned on a popular TV Show.
