Unfortunately, you mostly have to look across an ocean to see Natasia Demetriou's larger body of work.

The shows that made her a star are a little hard to find over here — they're the sorts of British sitcoms that don't often get picked up elsewhere.

If you're going to put the effort in, you should start with "Stath Lets Flats," a sitcom starring her and her brother, Jamie Demetriou ("The Afterparty"). It had a pretty long run by British standards — 18 episodes — and fortunately can be found on some North American streaming platforms.

She also did a sketch series (with "Stath Lets Flats" co-star Ellie White) called "Ellie & Natasia." That offers more Demetriou per minute but is harder to find.

She did do one other notable North American production that you can find without much trouble. She (and Jamie) had cameos as catty stage directors in the 2020 comedy film "Eurovision Song Contest: The Song of Fire Saga."

That might not seem like much, but starring in "What We Do in the Shadows," one of the most popular and critically acclaimed shows currently on TV, keeps her pretty busy.

Fortunately, it will continue to do so for a while. Season 4 just finished airing and the series has already been renewed by FX for two more seasons.
