Did Harvey just reveal Guillermo’s season 6 ending?

Critics Choice Awards, Deadline. 2024.

S6 speculation below:

…I think the best thing I can take from playing Guillermo De la Cruz is it's never too late to find yourself. It's never too late to be reborn and to reinvent yourself. And there’s no ticking time bomb expiration date to anyone of us to what our dreams and hopes can come true…Well,we start where we left off, and sometimes dreams and aspirations don't turn out the way we want them to...but I think that that's the whole point of rebirth,right? It's like a renaissance. It's happening again. And you take a new direction, new ideas, a new approach. So I'm really excited for the audience to see a new layer to Guillermo.

These are the key words from Harvey’s interview:

1. it's never too late to find yourself

2. Reborn

3. Reinvent

4. Ticking time bomb

5. Expiration date

6. Rebirth

7. Renaissance

8. Happening again

9. New layer

There’s a lot of references to reinvention and rebirth as well as time and hopes and dreams.

We know that Guillermo’s dream of being a vampire ended in season 5 when he learned that he couldn’t go through with killing humans.

There’s a stress of new ideas and directions, which sounds like Guillermo’s ending will not be any of the things he has been already: familiar, bodyguard, slayer, vampire.There’s going to be a new direction for Guillermo that he possibly hasn’t considered.

There’s a huge focus on time and rebirth, Harvey points out this message several times in the interview. He repeats and emphasizes reinvention and renaissance. Almost like being born again.

And the show has accomplished something like what Harvey has mentioned. Something that is technically not a new idea at all. And that’s energy vampires.

Energy Vampires life expectancies are a ticking time bomb. They have an expiration date. They live only for 100 years. And on that 100th birthday, they expire.

Except, they don’t expire. They give birth to a baby version of themselves and are basically born again or undergo a rebirth.

A storyline that was hinted at by not yet fully explored is the creation of the energy vampire. We know how they die and how their life cycles begin again, but we don’t know how they are made.

And I believe this is the season we find out. And Colin will help Guillermo by helping him turn.

I revisited some parts of season 5 when I considered this. Namely:

1. Guillermo’s inability to kill

2. That he didn’t want to say goodbye to his mom

3. That he said he still wanted to be a vampire

Becoming an energy vampire solves all three.

Guillermo can still see his mom without the threat of her killing him. He also doesn’t have to feed on humans in the traditional way, namely he doesn’t need to kill. And this way he will live forever, even though he will die every 100 years.

I get how this may not be what we want or expect. I, probably like you, want to see Nandor sink his teeth into Guillermo more than anything. But I don’t think they want to give us that…at least not easily.

I do have a full theory on how we get to have Nandor turn Guillermo. But I will make that into its own separate post.

[hottsyforpottsy]

I've been thinking:

It's been suggested that the Vampiric Council will be involved next season with regards to Guillermo’s actions...and Harvey co-starred with Antonio Banderas recently...

Will we finally get our Antonio cameo?? And how poetic would it be for "Armand" to be the one who decides Guillermo’s fate?

[jack-fruit]

I wonder if Guillermo will be able to use his telekinesis in the future to help him continue being a slayer. Can't touch wooden stakes or holy water? Just use your mind to fling them at your enemies!

[nandermoin]

Okay I have to know. I’ve been wondering for a while but I have to know!!!! Why does Nandor try so hard to not touch Guillermo? Like there are so many small instances where Nandor will rip his hand away (‘Go Flip Yourself’ episode for example) and most recently with Guillermo placing his hand on the edge of the coffin. Nandor seems to WANT to just lightly Pat his hand but seems to pull away at the last second.

If it wasn’t for a reason they wouldn’t show so many scenes of it. Like WHAT IS IT!? Nandor isn’t opposed to physical contact as seen many times with hugs for example.

I, of course, want it to be some like repression of some kind but I have a feeling it has to do with maintaining the hierarchical bond between Master and Familiar. But I don’t know for sure. Please someone help me.

Please hit me over the head with any thoughts and theories :)

[dracumor]

The more I think bout how everything will play out once Nandor finds out about Guillermo, the more I think about the whole "the only reason you're alive is because of me" argument and I'm just so convinced that what will happen is Nandor is gonna ask Guillermo to kill him

[nervouswitcheystuff]

About the S6 news —

I'm happy.

Seriously. I remember ages ago them saying Season six would probably be the last. And I'd MUCH rather we are given a proper complete series with a fantastic PLANNED ending...

Than WWDITS overstaying its welcome and watering down its plot for "content" 🙄

It's still sad to know the end is coming.

But I'm just happy it's happened.

The cast are so amazing and deserve to move on to bigger and better.

Another great thing!

WWDITS SEASON 5 FINALE PREDICTIONS

Someone asked for bonkers predictions for tonight's episodes, so I thought I'd give it a shot. I doubt the curse of Apollo will strike me, but who knows?

- The Morrigan House is a ploy by Simon the Devious. The vamps obliviously blunder through traps meant to kill them, foiling their host's plan.

- The Guide has been intentionally sabotaging the vampires all season because the housemates destroyed her former way of life and the building she was in charge of. She could have forgiven them if they gave her a new purpose as their friend, but since they're ignoring her, she will become their nightmare instead. She previously hexed Nadja, tried to get Guillermo killed and threw shade at Laszlo's book organization to cause him to hyperfixate.

- Guillermo's been kidnapped but Nandor is too stupid to realize it and thinks he returned to Panera Bread. While he's gone, Nandor can't stop seeing Guillermo everwhere. That rat looks like Guillermo. That bird-frog looks like Guillermo...

- The vamps will comb every Panera Bread, and fortunately for them, Guillermo's kidnapper is dumb enough to keep him at a Panera Bread in Little Antipaxos. Nadja finds out from her diner friends.

- When Nandor finally finds out, everyone tries to take the blame for turning Guillermo. Like Spartacus style. Laszlo, Nadja and even Colin because he didn't want to feel left out. They then try to convince Nandor it was a communal turning of a communal familiar so no one needs to kill anyone else today, but Nandor doesn't believe them. Not because what they say is physically impossible on multiple levels, but because ...

- Guillermo cannot fully change because Nandor made a wish that Guillermo would never be a vampire yet will remain with Nandor. This leads to yet another emotionally cathartic fight between the two. Each accuses the other of using them. The fight only defuses when they see clips from the documentary of the other being mushy about them when they're not around.

- Nandor uses his last wish to make Guillermo a full vampire thus Nandor technically turned Guillermo and doesn't have to kill him. This can't be a completely happy ending so it's Nandor's turn to run away from things he'd rather not deal with, leaving Guillermo behind.

- Guillermo is confident he can track Nandor down. He's still a vampire hunter, after all, and Nandor isn't the brightest prey.

- Laszlo creates a couple of Guide-raven hybrids, so the Guide will always have company. Laszlo is happy his science has worked for once. He ignores the TV reports about the increasing number of Guillermo hybrid sightings around New York.

- Nadja is happy that no hex means she's free to be mean again. She and Dollie go on an insult bender.

- Derek used the money Guillermo paid him to bribe other vampires into talking him up, so now he's considered a cool and legendary vampire. Bonus points if a jealous Nandor is there to call him a fucking guy.

[kozjk]

Just sharing since the poster came out today and my theory still holds up...

My theory (based on casting, synopsis, etc) is the new season is gonna start with Guillermo attempting to be turned by Derek. He realizes it didnt fully work but theres def something happening. He cant turn into a bat, doesnt have fangs, but he is craving blood and he doesnt need to wear his glasses anymore. He's going about figuring out what happened, but keeps it to himself. His mom might sense it, he goes to the optometrist about his vision.... the vamps know nothing but over the season laz is noticing weird behavior. Laz is secretly trying to figure it out, and eventually tells guillermo he knows something is up and they end up working together to try and figure it out. Meanwhile, Nandor is getting upset by Guillermos disconnect and sudden friendship with Laz - given last season Laz told Nandor sean was his best friend and now Guillermo seems to be getting closer to Laz and further from Nandor. By the end of the season we find out Guillermo cant be full vamp, but hes actually more powerful as this hybrid vamp/van helsing. Now we have Nandor realizing how much he misses/needs/wants Guillermo, and there's a definite power shift between the two. We end the season with a revelation of feelings. Season 6 for Nandermo will probably be the first half of yearning and then an actual realization of the relationship and we end with them together. 🤞🏼🔮

[scrumptious-shit]

low key crack theory:

episode 9 the vampires get invited to the home of a mysterious, illustrious vampire

what if that vampire is Van Helsing himself, got turned into a vampire while trying to wipe them out (Marceline style)

hears about the situation from the Baron or something idk and it doesn’t matter, he invites them in to help or kill Guillermo

[kiriona-ing]

What if Marwa Freddie stole the lamp and comes back to fuck nandor up

[cryptidwithacappuccino]

What if Nandor already knows? He keeps seemingly giving Guillermo opportunities to confess what’s going on then deflecting it with a joke / something silly / an unimportant ‘secret’ when Guillermo freezes for a few seconds. Like, I’m sure he knows more than he seems to.

[amber-angel]

Oh OH, what if Guillermo can't become a vampire. Not only that, he is so immune to vampirism that his blood turns vampires human. Nandor, who wanted to be human so badly, is now in Guillermo's shoes from back in season 1. Reversing the power dynamic and creating a poetic swap of roles.

[hottsyforpottsy]

I'm becoming more and more convinced that Nandor is going to surprise Guillermo with an offer to turn him and that's when it will all come out. Like, the ideal scenario Guillermo has always wanted will be presented to him and he will tell Nandor that he went to someone else.

It plays up on the cheating vibe the show has gone with and would just be the ultimate punch in the gut for everyone. Nandor floating the idea in episode 1 this season as well as how desperate he's been for Guillermo’s attention it seems like the final step he'd take to keep him by his side, even though he has his fears about doing it. Being Shadows, they could really do absolutely anything but my theory is we're headed this way.

[nandermoin]

If y’all have any theories as to how Nandor will find out about Guillermo’s turning please tell me. I need more fan theories.

[nervouswitcheystuff]

So—haven't watched finale yet

BUT theory from spoilers I've seen...

Nandor has known for ages Guillermo isn't suited for vamperism. It explains why he has never allowed for more in their relationship. If this is the status quo, Nandor will live on and will either become Guillermo's carer—or, more likely, will "allow" Guillermo to leave him once a better suited paramour arrives (which Freddy was clearly not).

But you can't help your feelings.

Nandor's existential crisis makes EVEN MORE sense within the context that he has ALL THIS POWER AND LIFE...and he cannot grasp the ONE THING he truly wants.

Sunrise. Sunset. Life goes on. So does he.

Nothing changes. He is alone.

He does try to find something permanent—if not for his own need for company, to show Guillermo that he will be okay without him. (To free Guillermo of his honourable duty of serving him).

But he self destructs every chance—if he even took it seriously to begin with.

With the cult, we see Nandor desperately trying to seek the other option: To be human again. He deludes himself and allows himself to be manipulated. But even then, it fails. Those who care about him also inadvertently continue the cycle.

Nothing changes. Nothing lasts. But him.

I suspect Nandor has built in a fail safe.

He hasn't used his last wish. Only one—to ensure he CAN'T use it. Except...

This season a few things have become clear.

1) Laszlo is desperate to be a father, properly

2) Nadja is ready for her sunset years

3) Nandor is waiting for purpose

4) Guillermo is learning what he wants

5) Even Colin is restless

They are all ready to unfreeze time and be human again. Together. An actual family.

From the very beginning, the series ending with them all becoming human has been debated. But it makes sense, if given the power, Nandor would protect that option as a contingency plan if nothing else.

Becoming human would mean Nadja can be properly involved in her culture again, Laszlo can have his freedom in the sun and become a parent with Nadja, Colin as a human would be destructive in the best way, and Nandor and Guillermo can both finally have their true needs and wants met: An equal, supportive romantic relationship.

But Nandor can't make this decision for everyone. He needs them to come to the realisation this is what they want too...

With Laszlo's trip in the sun, Nadja contemplating death and family, Guillermo now rejecting vamperism, and even Colin's becoming more involved in human life...

We're about a season away from this moment.

[demonicseries]

as of s5 premiering, we know:

nandor received a gift of 3 extra wishes from the djinn

he used one to turn marwa into freddy

he was not shown using the other two

why would they give him a dramatic "three wishes" just to use the others of screen... why not just give him one

guillermo wishes derek didn't turn him

guillermo's transformation isn't working right

vampires cannot be turned twice

nandor would kill guillermo and himself if he found out what guillermo did

for anything to work out, someone would literally have to change reality

nandor has a reality changing deity on speed dial

i mean, where else could they possibly go with this

does nandor still have wishes left cause it would be really fucked up if he uses one to un-vampire guillermo at the end of the season when he finds out, and i hope he does it
