Harvey Guillen talks What We Do in the Shadows, Coming Out, Embracing Flaws, & The Magicians

[@kristiglowacki3594]

I met Harvey on Saturday at NYCC. I will tell this story to anyone who'll listen because he deserves all the praise he receives. What We Do In The Shadows is my comfort show. My dad has cancer and it can be hard sometimes. I told Harvey how much the show meant to me when I need an escape and accidentally started crying. Without hesitation, Harvey held my hands, looked me right in the eyes and comforted me. He said he was so glad I could bring him peace and wished my Dad well. The photo op area went down for a bit and we talked there too. Don't stop being you!! -Kristi, your birthday twin from NYCC

Sending my love to you and your dad 💜💜❤️❤️.

[@emilyemily444]

Sending positive vibes and well wishes to you, your Dad and family🧡💛💚

[@michaelreddington1234]

What a lovely story. Sending you and your Dad and all of your family my sincerest thoughts ❤️

[@AlbertoGarcia-wd7sc]

It's nice watching Harvey talk about poverty. Imagine how many wonderful actors or scientists or whatever are we losing because they are poor and can't access education.

[@forestcitytrivia9167]

Harvey is the same age as my lil bro, who came out to me when he was 16, but I knew when he was 10 or so. Some of these stories hit close to home. So happy for this young man.

[@Faction.Paradox]

Was already a great fan of him from WWDITS but wow. What a warm, honest, sincere and throughly charming human being Harvey is.

[@vbmorris81]

I met Harvey at Galaxy Con Richmond. He was such a sweetheart. So glad he made it and seeing him in person with Hale Appleman doing a panel just made me more of a fan of them both

[@theresemarkham9387]

This week’s episode is so delightful. Harvey definitely opens up and his story is going to help so many people. His character on WWDITS is so clever. Thank you for another great episode.

[@TheGeekAuthority]

Bravo Harvey Guillen ! It was such a delight listening to you talk about your family, your mother and father, friends, costars and about your feelings. Never seen your show, but I'm going to look for it now because of this interview! Thanks Michael - this was truly fun and interesting!

[@lb5368]

Harvey really went deep and shared his joys and sorrows, what a kind and beautiful soul.

[@dawnbevins451]

What a lovely episode, Harvey seems so warm, gentle, genuine and full of love. The way he talks about his mum and dad and his upbringing is so touching, and it is so sweet of him to want to do as many cons as possible, because he understands that not everyone can afford to travel, so generous. I knew I was going to enjoy this one, I absolutely love Harvey! Thanks Rosey and Ryan, and thank you Harvey for being an absolute gem of a human ❤

[@syb238]

I first heard Harvey in Puss in Boots: The Last Wish, and he charmed me with his voice. Such a wholesome guy, and his role as Perrito fits him so well. I will defo give a shot of his series as well. Love Harvey

[@RobertSpitzer]

What a fantastic person.

[@visualmodificationsllc7549]

Love this guy, and what a life he has had! What a great podcast, love everything you do Michael! I hope you can get a show or a movie you deserve it!

[@mscandylevar2444]

Just by listening to Harvey you can tell what a loving and kind hearted soul He is. He is correct about San Diego comic con it is very expensive everything here in California is. The price you pay to go to The San Diego comic con for 4 days, cost almost the same for the Disneyland pass for the whole year. I so much understand Harvey being poor as a child and also his parents. I been on both side of the track as a child wanted to do stuff like other kids and starting to work at 12 doing paper outs and help elderly people until 15 working at Winchell‘s donuts and arcade.I remember collecting cans and bottles, when I was little to go to Disneyland on the weekends with my friends and paying 5.00 to get in. I also collected bottle and cans back in 2007 a school helps me and my sister by letting us collect the bottles and cans not fun going through trash and dumpsters. That helped me and my sister with funeral cost for our parents and a attorney for my special-needs sister. I won’t take charity I always worked hard for what we have and my dad taught me not to take handouts. But I did learn it ok to get help once in awhile. Sound like Harvey has loving parents that support him that is awesome. You should always show that kind of support for your children no matter what and stand by them and help them and Guide them in making choices and help them grow into a successful life. Not ever child has that kind of loving environment like myself I came from a dysfunctional family. The children are the future on making this World a better place

[@theresemarkham9387]

I enjoy him on What We Do In The Shadows. I look forward to learning more about him. Inside of you Tuesday is the best day of the week.

[@raemiranda1]

This is the quietest Michael has ever been. Harvey is an AMAZING and wildly entertaining storyteller

[@MasseyKY]

The more I see Harvey the more I love him. Love his audition story! He was meant for WWDITS. Love his genuine energy.

[@Nueztoy]

Harvey, eres un chingón, la historia de como llegaste hasta donde estás es conmovedora. Mereces todo el éxito del mundo.

[@louiseturner9811]

He sure does. I love Harvey.❤❤

[@moviesquad73]

I've been to one of William Shatner's panels, and I believe that he does them just to stay active. He is constantly doing something whether its a guest spot on a show, appearances at cons, racing horses. He just loves being active

[@gaara24sand]

He is sooooo good in "What We Do in the Shadows"

[@vivianbloom166]

That was wonderful! Harvey is just such a warm and delightful person, loved hearing his stories.

[@Brook11223]

It's so cool that Smallville was the first show to introduce Blue Beetle in live action with Jamie Reyes and now Blue Beetle gets his own film with Jamie Reyes playing the hero which is so cool. Smallville again is the blueprint. I also feel we could get Booster Gold as well in the near future.

[@andreraymond6860]

Harvey is very inspirational. When will someone cast him as Sancho in Man Of La Mancha? He would be perfect at bringing that childlike innocence...

[@michelleking8302]

Yay! I adore him 😍 excited for this one. It's going to be great!

[@leannepritchett6323]

Phenomenal interview. You will love every moment ❤

[@lindamawdsley6130]

Harvey is such a lovely person who has worked his way up to his current success with tenacity and sheer determination. I loved The Magicians and will definitely watch What we do in the Shadows, I wish him well and for his continued success🤩

[@leannepritchett6323]

Phenomenal interview with a guest that is the epitome of self love and kindness. Brava Rosey. You truly are the best ❤️❤️🙏🏻

[@michelleking8302]

Gotta say hi next time he's at a con!

[@leannepritchett6323]

@@michelleking8302 💯❤️

[@HypocritesExposd]

Had the chance to meet and have a short convo with Harvey and he was nothing but kind and pleasant. I wish him the best of luck in life and his career!

[@sqoody7invegas625]

So happy Harvey G is on Inside of You. What we do in the shadows is hilarious, my first episode i saw was the Orgy episode. Such a great show!

[@danielblackwell5577]

He was so awesome to meet as well at the GalaxyCon in Raleigh

[@Aragedie]

Harvey is one of the sweetest most amazing souls. I've loved everything he is in especially WWDITS and Magicians.

[@lgr2284]

Great great interview. Thank you very much, guys.

[@britboucher]

Hey Rosie, can we have a video tour of your room? I love your collection and would love to see all of it.

[@Marsha-at-Home-Endeavor]

I love Harvey!! What we do in the Shadows so much!

[@jonvaters7511]

What a wonderful man. Great interview!

[@anninwhack1998]

Great interview! I listened on the podcast but wanted to drop a comment over here. We love WWDITS the movie and the show. It’s just brilliant and Guillen brings so much to it. You are the greatest and an inspiration to anyone outside of any norm. I love hearing about your persistence and hard work. As Buffy fans we loved your turn into the new Slayer! The podcast is great too!

[@jeffrym9625]

I believe his very first convention was in Spookala in Florida and just like in this interview, Harvey was just had so much energy and great interaction with fans. Also the Intro song for What We Do In The Shadows is so damn good

[@robsrcade4137]

Love this episode. One second I’m losing my breath and crying after hearing about his father. The next second I’m laughing so hard I’m crying because of his mother‘s disappointment for no more MetroPCS😂

[@JDdoesstuff]

I really enjoyed his acting in What we do in the shadow ! Great podcast, Very interesting to listen 🎧 to!

[@garyc]

Love the story of how Harvey got WWDITS :)

[@71jbear]

One of my favorite shows. Harvey is so great on the show and on his podcast. Awesome guys-thank you!!!

[@markarjohn]

Great band. Talking Heads Same as it ever was!!!

[@jolabrese]

This was a perfect interview! Thanks so much.

[@JEBossTon92]

Thank you guys as always Rosie and Ryan!! Couldn’t watch until after work today so I’m late to the party, but what a great way to end the day! 👍🏼👍🏼

[@glizzymcguire4849]

Interesting conversation. Seems like a sweet guy.

[@HulaBeulah]

I really like Harvey, he is just so sweet and I love the way he tells stories, he makes them so easy to visualise. At around the 40 min mark I found myself saying "yes, abso-fucking-lutely" at the tv because the pair of you hit the nail on the head. I find when people want to be in a relationship where we are not independent of one another, I feel stifled, controlled and trapped. I like to do my own thing. When I am with someone, I love the bones of that person but I can't be doing with neediness. I have tried to be in one of those types of relationships but it doesn't work for me, puts me off and makes me happy to be single. Harvey's friend, Nicole says exactly what I have always said so I am glad I'm not the only one who thinks it. More people need to be like Me, Harvey, Rosey and Nicole 🤔😁 I enjoyed this interview very much, it was one of my favourites that I have seen in a few weeks. 😊

[@Brook11223]

I can't wait to see him in the new Blue Beetle film. I loved Reacher the sense of humor he brought to his character playing opposite fellow Aquaman Alan Ritchson was great.

[@louiseturner9811]

What we do in the shadows is really funny. Harvey is my favourite person. ❤️ to Harvey.

[@ratatataraxia]

Gizmo!

[@katevand]

20 years younger than his character????? Talent. Damn I would not want a 50ish year old familiar.

[@caineal8298]

I’m so happy you made this podcast and your other ones Rosenbaum 👻watching you on screen for over 10years love seeing you work on different outlets! I could listen to you and these conversation forever I jus love your voice & you sm!!!💞💞💞( I’m 21 so smallville supported me half my life & the fact my fav character turned out to be my favorite cast member and Creator gives me so much joy 💞🖤)

[@jeswainston]

What a lovely man.

[@danielferguson5563]

Rosie.... I love how you kind of dropped some Paul Lynde when you said "contour" during the ad read.

[@dominique9187]

Another guest that i didn’t know, Harvey is a kind and contagiosly funny person 🥰 A very lively and interesting episode, thank you Michael 💙🙌🙌

[@tammyholcomb]

Hi everyone

How adorable is this man?! Now I really want to meet him 💕

This was a great one!

Favorite part of Tuesday 💙🤘

[@MeepsNcheese]

1:05:50 now I'm wondering what the hell happened with The Magicians lmao

[@katevand]

I love Harevey in WWDITS he's my second fav and he's in BLUE BEEEEEEEETLEE AHHHH

[@jasmindamt6066]

I watched WWDITS at the cinema and was so hyped for the tv show but disappointed when i realised it would be based in America with a new cast. It didn't take me long to become hooked with its great writing and interesting characters and I have watched every episode. Hearing Michael auditioned for Nandor was surprising, but I can't imagine anyone else replacing the actors on the show. A great interview with interesting stories and Harvey deserves all the success he has achieved. I didn't even realise he was in The Magicians; Q was my favourite character and I'm now wondering if the actor left the show because of the all the drama.

[@sorscha1308]

I love What We Do in the Shaddows. I'd never seen him in anything else (unlike the rest of the cast but i am in the UK, so i guess that's why) but he's fantastic & i'll be watching out for him from now on. I totally related to the whole relationship discussion. I could NOT share my space with someone else full-time, no matter how much i loved them. It would literally drive me insane & they'd end up burried in the back garden.

[@teph1256]

love gizmo!

[@imaclone2]

Good ole Mickey Guillermo

[@Nimoot]

I miss Benedict... only thing I've seen him in and he's adorable. 🙂

[@LiLisa24]

Looking forward to getting to know Harvey Guillen through your interview ^_^ I know it will be another amazing episode!! Hope you have an amazing week! ❤️ Happy Tuesday Michael 💙

I can't imagine Guillermo being in his 50s!

Was he in Reacher?

I recognize him from Crazy Ex Girlfriend!

More Magicians actors please! Summer Bishil?

[@AKABoondock19]

What We do in The Shadows hasnt been all that great since Jermaine Clement left the show, wish he would come back. Love the cast though.

[@NotDuncan]

I think you’re getting better at interviewing

[@galan_garcia]

Ñoño, is that you?

[@corrado]

come on man, a horror fiend like yourself and you don't bring up Werewolves Within???? Harvey was great in that film.

[@LaineyBug12]

I wish the host wouldn't interrupt so much :/

[@castleladpaza76]

Not great parenting if u allow ur son at 6 yrs old to go out collecting tin cans. Or he is just exaggerating and he was really about 12 yrs old no parent would allow a 6 year old walk the streets in America.

[@lobaggins3328]

He was supervised. He wasn’t by himself.

[@neipas09]

How old is this? There's no new episodes happening. It's on hiatus since Sept 6th
