How HOW HOWwwwwWWWW does Armand manage to pull off disco fever vibes AND gorgeous Botticelli angel AND sexy sassy seductive guy AND cutey patootie bf yet ALSO the "feeling murderous, might delete later" looks??????! Assad is Michelin star chef's kiss. 😍😍😍😍
It’s a Mother-off! and WE’RE the winners cause we get to be alive at the same time the TV show is airing this historic event every week for 8 weeks 🙂↕️
I went from fangirling over loumand to balling my eyes out at louis's speech to Claudia at the end. "Stop feeling sorry for yourself, no one's watching, no one cares." Omfg, I just sat there questioning my existence when the credits rolled. 😭😭😭
Loumand are my fathers. Are they always on the verge of going through a divorce? Yes! But are they willing to pretend and hold hands in my face as though I cannot hear them screaming at each other in the middle of the night from their room? Also Yes! And I love them for that!
I'm so happy for you, Autumn! Meeting Sam and Jacob, I wouldn't have made it. About the ep, my favorite parts were Louis breaking down about Claudia dreaming (Jacob, the actor that you are) and the first Louis and Dreamstat interaction. "I'd taken 7,000 souls by then but Lestat was the only one who felt like murder." 😭 The Jam chemistry was chemistrying!! "I can't get warm." PERHAPS IT'S BECAUSE YOUR COAL FIRE IS IN THE DUMP.
My god that Louis scene of him realizing that there’s something a miss with his memories was gut wrenching. Jacob played that to perfection you truly felt the pain and violation that’s been placed on him! And then the final carriage scene this man better get an Emmy
Autumn, your reviews and reactions are an amazing contribution to the IWTV community! I very much appreciate the hardwork and effort you do on your channel. ❤️
The way this season came in the best way possible right when I'm in the lowest point of my life. Like, it has given me something to look forward to each week. It's not even just a show, it's literally the light at the end of a tunnel type of thing for me. It's crazy, I know! I just love it so much!
it is so cool that your videos got recognised by the cast and crew of iwtv. i can only imagine the feeling of pride and fangirling that comes with that. thank you for picking up the moment of claudia luring her victims in and her thing with people's eyes - it's a nice call back to season one and have delainey reference claudia's origins and have her character be consistent from season to season. your video made me do that gif of leonardo dicaprio pointing at the screen. i also cannot help but giggle at the pageantry of louis and armand walking into the living room hand in hand, and cuddling up on the couch and daniel is just bemused as fuck. i almost lost it at the 'yeah'. the end of the episode in the truck almost broke me. i read it as louis trying to convince both claudia and himself that she was enough for him, and claudia wanting to be enough for him but not believing him. jacob and delainey both delivered beautiful performances in that scene. thank you for your video - it allows my hyperfixation on the show to fester
Autumn thanks so much for living the dream! You remind me of myself…. only I lived this overwhelming lust for this fandom back in the 1990’s keep going I love every minute of your enthusiasm live the dream! I’m praying every day that I make it on this earth to see season 3!
I am so happy for you. I honestly think you have such talent. I normally could never have the attention span to watch videos of these lengths but I feel like I just breezed through these. Your content is so charming and thought provoking that I find myself wanting more. I can't wait for more Interview with the Vampire. I am absolutely obsessed! This show is on another level. A grand performance. I am so stoked for what's to come.
I’ve gotten to the point where I’ve rewatched the episodes too many times. So now I’m rewatching the reactions. You’re a gift to this fandom btw. And I love when you cry, it makes my cold dead heart remember what I felt when I watched it for the first time
Did you notice that when Louis was speechifying about all the memories bubbling up, there was a montage of recovered memories that included Lestat dropping Louis? I'm telling you, we're going to learn that didn't happen quite the same way we thought.
It's scary the levels of emotions this series forces me to feel no matter how many times I rewatch an episode. Even watching your reaction to watching the episode brings tears to my eyes. It does feel ridiculous to be bawling my eyes out over a TV show, but in a way, it's also really beautiful to be so deeply moved by this masterpiece. Never did I imagine that I would ever see an adaptation of Anne's books capture everything that made me fall in love with her as a writer, but here we are, blessed with this gorgeous feast for our senses. Autumn, you're beautiful! I'm happy to be in the company of another hopelessly obsessed IwtV and Lestat fangirl. Lestat Bitches Unite! I am green with envy that you got to go to the NY premiere, but super excited and happy for you that you had that experience! ❤❤
OMG your reaction to the appearance of Dreamstat! I've never felt so represented. 🤣🤣 Thank you for all your work bringing attention to this highly underrated show! Cannot wait for further updates!!
Call me Ralph Wiggum the way this season has me in danger. Like. My god, the way the Dreamstat scene hit me right between the eyes like the hardest controlled substance. The writing is unmatched as always. What I wouldn't give to be able to buy some printed screenplays just to pore over and scribble on. Thank you Hannah and team, what an extra special treat for sickos incorporated. Completly living through you for the premier events, so glad it was everything we could collectively imagine and more.
@@AutumnBottomBrown Right? Subtitles on, read along viewing experience. Oh if only there was some corporate entity that might want to bind those up and sell them to us…
About the episode, I am so titillated about what Armand is trying to get out of this interview. Like, what the hell are they trying to lead Daniel to publish, and why? This is obviously where the show diverges from the books. It's brilliant that they've done this. It gives the readers a mystery to crack, and giving Daniel more age, backstory, agency, determination.... It's awesome. Turns Daniel, who was basically a side character love interest, (despite the fact that he'd been the one who'd accidentally started the whole series) into a deeply complex and powerful character. I really love this Daniel. I can't wait to see what he does.
I always found it weird that Daniel's a side character when he sets the whole shit show in motion and walks away with the hottest dude that's also the world's oldest sugar daddy that happens to look like a toddler? I mean, not bad for a "nobody", he's literally "everything". The writers have my respect for giving the fella his flowers.
Thanks Autumn for keeping us IWTV children fed. The blood is good here! ALSO congratulations on your EPIC adventure meeting absolutely everyone and getting the QUEEN treatment!
Between these psychotic, murderous, fruit fly Vampires and the neurodivergent chefs in ‘The Bear’ both since 2022, this proves *REAL* television is back
I’ve been waiting on you All day .. And I love the pettiness between Ahmad and Daniel, too funny. And again Louis promise her it’s just YOU and ME from now on, when Lestat is still there, I understand her frustration.
So absolutely thrilled that there IWTV team recognized your fabulous work. I’m really looking forward to watching this season and checking out your comments along the way. I was surprised they put as much time into this part of the story as they did. It’s a relatively undiscussed portion falling between Lestat’s death and the arrival in Paris. I liked what they did here, even if I’m personally itching for more Daniel/Armand snippiness. I might mourn the Devil’s Minion storyline, but both these actors are so great in delivering this adaptation.
I was completely overwhelmed by this wonderful performance in episode 1 of season 2. OMG, everyone acted so well, so amazing. I like the scenes where Daniel mocks Armand as well as the way he talks to Real Rashid. It's so interesting. In this episode, I felt like the plot was very slow. Maybe it's a stepping stone for future episodes. It feels like it's the calm before the storm. Oh, I'm looking forward to the exciting details in future episodes. Thank you very much for your video review. Love you. 😍
I’m so happy that they’re integrating more and more lore this season. Like the whole “how a vampire feels when drinking the blood “ is one of the most trilling and alien concepts of the book. I was wondering how they were going to show that, Lestat mentions it in passing to Claudia “eating syrup while riding on the wind” and there the scene at the beginning of episode 7 where Lestat seems to be in a trance while contemplating the blood. With Louis the “vegan” and Claudia the teenage vampire I’m not sure that the audience who is not familiar with the books understand how blood is part of the culture, how vampire are obsessed , bit like foodies can be … but with people… how much normal Lestat attitude is compared to most vampire , even with the big change to the morals of character with season 1. And now in episode 8, they talking about how it affects them drinking the blood of desperate people. I think the scene where Dreamstat is drinking from Louis and Louis is screaming in pain is a manifestation what Louis is feeling inside, because Vampire can make their victims feel whatever they want and Dreamstat is Louis…I’m sure that with meeting the Théâtre des Vampires, will see more of the culture and the lore, I’m so excited this season is gonna be epic!!!👀🔥🔥
@1:15:20 omg now perks my ears up indefinitely. Aside from Louis and Claudia, Armand is easily the most intriguing character to me and I'm so excited to see that dynamic play out, especially as someone who hasn't read the books, I'm very much looking forward to what the writers bring this season.
I never watch episode reactions because the concept just doesnt do anything for me, so it took a while for me to decide to watch these just because I love your videos so so much. And oh my god it was worth it, the interview was a very pleasant surprise too. I don't think I've ever enjoyed a fandom youtuber as much as you/
Autumn you are so cool and give us such awesome content. I wish I knew you in real life lol this episode was awesome and the ending 😭😭 me too girl. More of my random thoughts on the episode: - Daciana was cool and I like this rendition of Claudia meeting her but will miss out on Lestat meeting her a bit! -Armand’s smirk and “yeah” back to Daniel was so JKDHFBFYDLFKGOKDNF - Lestat’s presence was ghostly and beautiful and he looked so angelic at the end. - Claudia smoking the cig and shoving the boy and then being an optimistic sweetie pie was such lovely I love seeing her duality. - I’m sad Louis’ night was ruined by that guy calling him out on their lie - love this show
21:51 The song that the children are singing has my name in it 😭 and claudia also sings it. I'm now Canon in interview with the vampire, done. 21:51 was it raining autumn WAS IT?! 26:35 I maybe laughed a little bit when that happened, but wmafter that it was just sad 44:37 what in the theatre des vampires 1:13:56 the bleach blonde hair, BATTLE OF THE BLONDES 1:17:34 🍻 1 Armand is so suspicious, I didn't expect them to do that so early 2 No talk of Morgan 😢 sike he was sort of mentioned 3 loving the interview 🙌🏻
I had a whole bit where I talked about Morgan and Emilia in my original edit but it dragged and I figured since I mentioned the book scene in the interview that would make up for it. But I did love that element!!
see i thought i was the only one that actually liked the aesthetic of louis and Armand's bedroom, it's so fitting for a vampire! I get the bars are off-setting and such but still, I loved the design
So confession: this video came up in my suggested MONTHS ago when I was struggling to sleep and fell asleep to a deep dive about fraggle rock. And I woke up to just the part about meeting Sam Reid and was so confused… So not only am I back after having seen both seasons but I just got the weirdest deja vu from that part Thanks!!
😮 My brain just gave me the image of Emma D'Arcy as Gabrielle. I know they're quite a bit younger than Sam and they will very likely be too busy with House of the Dragon for the foreseeable future, but an insanely talented non binary actor like Emma in the role of Gabrielle would be SO cool.
I've been waiting so patiently for the series to be released on the BBC so I can finally watch your content! I'm going to try to make the series last. The first episode was incredible.
@@coolstertothecore I’m so glad it’s finally out in the UK!! Buckle up babe, there’s a big storm coming! I hope these videos will help carry you through 😁
Thia episode was fucking awesome I'm already jonesing for episode 2 like I kind of wish we got the first two episodes in one day like they did for Season 1 😭 , also Autumn do you prefer the Season Premiere of Season 1 or the Season Premiere of this season ?
'see you season 3' hmmmmmmm so what you're saying is that you have an exclusive contract where you get to interview all of them every season? please? also would love to see you at the season 3 premiere doing red carpet interviews xoxoxox (manifesting for you)
Yasss, might have rewatch this after I rewatch the episode, not me hearing you say sycamore and immediately thinking about your Lana X Vampire Chronicles characters epic series.
37:18... baby, its a diva-off! And WE ARE THE WINNERS WHO HAVE GOTTEN TO SEE THE GOTH MOTHER-OFF LIVE EVERY WEEK FOR SEVEN WEEKS STRAIGHT SINCE 2022🙂↕️ (
@@AutumnBottomBrown thank you for not being 100% condemning of Armand and instead willing to look at it from where we are IN the show. Some people online are already looking at it from the full VC POV but you willing to be like “you know this is where, as of s2 ep 1, Armand and Louis are as a couple and this is how I’m going to see them” is a refreshing take, Autumn. You are literally THEE ONLY person who has read the books, and has more knowledge than I do, that I am willing to watch their reactions and their videos on IWTV because you see it as book!canon and show!canon and you can keep those two apart for the time being.
@@NyikoDoris ah!! Thank you so much for this comment!! I try my best to keep an open mind and take what the show gives us vs expecting a 1:1 adaptation of the book because it clearly isn’t that!
Autumn!!!! Ily. What a video, what a surprise (??!!!!!). So glad to have met you 🩷 can’t wait to inevitably meet again as we simultaneously lose our sanity over vampires together. Will never forget Louis saying “What can the damned really say to the damned?” in the episode and you going, “There it is 🙂↕️”
I’m still reeling over the surprise.. it was SO NICE meeting you as well!!! And I mean, the line drop, iconic moment! We have to identify it when it happens!
@@AutumnBottomBrown The only possible explanation for the relatively low view count despite the illustrious viewership is the main cast hang out in Rolin's office at lunch time to watch your latest offering to the IWTV fandom together. Jacob sits cross legged on the ground, Sam and Delainey are sitting in front of Rolin's desk (with perfect posture; Jacob resting his back against Sam's chair). Rolin and Hannah are sitting in swivel chairs either side of the monitor. Assad is perching on a low filing cabinet and Eric is sitting off to the side eating his lunch and observing. Assad totally went to the office next door to fetch a rolling chair for himself but immediately gave it Eric when he came in. This is the only explanation.
Is the blood not able to sustain vampires because the people it’s taken from are malnourished literally and spiritually? Does this or the practice of feeding on the dead yield zombie vampires?
@AutumnBottomBrown it was such a good chat!! I love and admire Hannah, so this was a treat! I think it's brilliant to have someone as knowledgeable of the show and the VC universe such as yourself, having these conversations with the people who helped craft it. Makes for an engaging and richer chat. You know just what to ask, you get it!! The podcast for season one was fine (I don't know if they're bringing that back), but I personally like this waaay more. So happy for you, Autumn ❤️
@AutumnBottomBrown I definitely will!! Very excited to see who you're talking to next. I just want to hear from everyone involved in the creation of this show, honestly. I will die if you somehow get Carol Cutshall on here.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I’ve been very torn on the groan. Half of me says “it’s purely thematic; a swaying building means the characters and audience that they are not on stable ground. It adds an environmental level of uncertainty and eerieness.” But then the other half of me says “it’s something more.” I don’t think it’s Akasha just because if it was Akasha, that means (to me) Armand is keeping watch over her or at the very least knows about her & I think it’s a huge part of the Armand/Marius/Lestat dynamic that Marius never told Armand the truth about Those Who Must Be Kept but he told Lestat immediately. But who knows!
How can you get any sense of what you're watching if 40% of the time you're mugging for the camera over actually watching the screen, and another 40% of the time you've paused to go on a 10 minute yap after watching a minute thirty of the episode?
she’s already watched it, and I’d assume that the viewers have also already watch these episodes, this is like discussion and fan girl time . If you wanted an uninterrupted video, GO WATCH THE EPISODE
This chick is so cringey with her outdated early 2018 editing style. But I love season two, much better than season one. And I love Delainey's Claudia much better. And Armand is too gorgeous in episode one. And I can't wait to see him and his crazy crew in episode two.❤❤❤ I am still iffy about Lestat, I still dislike his portrayal in the show. I still think Tom's portrayal wins, and Anne Rice had thought so too. And there's a quote and video about her saying that, so her opinion matters because she wrote the books. But maybe he will win me over in season two, maybe. But so far, Armand, Claudia are my favorite.❤
How HOW HOWwwwwWWWW does Armand manage to pull off disco fever vibes AND gorgeous Botticelli angel AND sexy sassy seductive guy AND cutey patootie bf yet ALSO the "feeling murderous, might delete later" looks??????! Assad is Michelin star chef's kiss. 😍😍😍😍
Like… I’m failing the Not Falling in Love with Him Challenge HARD
@@AutumnBottomBrownevery time he does something heinous and im STILL like whatever you say beautiful
I’m a weak weak person
"Doesn't matters how many buttons are unbuttoned in your shirt I will not be hypnotized" sad to announce that I was hypnotized by armand this season
The Armand Daniel interactions in this episode? Chef kiss
he wants that old man so bad
I am kissing the chef!! So good!
@@brontebell9676 😉
@brontebell9676 He is technically a mummy so with Daniel he's ironically craddle robbing.
THE SASS CIRCLE of Armand, Louis, and Daniel is INSANE!!!!!!!!
It’s a Mother-off! and WE’RE the winners cause we get to be alive at the same time the TV show is airing this historic event every week for 8 weeks 🙂↕️
@@NyikoDoris YES!!!!!!!!
I went from fangirling over loumand to balling my eyes out at louis's speech to Claudia at the end.
"Stop feeling sorry for yourself, no one's watching, no one cares." Omfg, I just sat there questioning my existence when the credits rolled. 😭😭😭
that line is so beautiful 😭
I mean you saw my reaction, BIG SAME. We are in this together!!!
Loumand are my fathers. Are they always on the verge of going through a divorce? Yes!
But are they willing to pretend and hold hands in my face as though I cannot hear them screaming at each other in the middle of the night from their room? Also Yes! And I love them for that!
Proud to say I never shipped loumand
I'm so happy for you, Autumn! Meeting Sam and Jacob, I wouldn't have made it.

YOURE SO RIGHT AND TOU SHOULD SAY IT LOUDER!!!!!
Girl when you pulled out that painting of lestat and louie it sent me into the stratosphere.
My god that Louis scene of him realizing that there’s something a miss with his memories was gut wrenching.
Jacob played that to perfection you truly felt the pain and violation that’s been placed on him!
And then the final carriage scene this man better get an Emmy
We WILL be securing that Emmy this year!!! It’s nonnegotiable!
Jacob is a wonder… his multi-dimensional Louis portrayal is breathtaking!!
Everyone involved with the show should all get awards! :)
Aww that last scene between Louis and Claudia with him doing the pep talk broke me down so bad I was sobbing hard
Autumn, your reviews and reactions are an amazing contribution to the IWTV community! I very much appreciate the hardwork and effort you do on your channel. ❤️

You’re gonna rock along with us all the way to season ten!!
I wasn’t part of the fandom in the 90s - I enjoyed these books in a vacuum! but remember the online fandoms in 1999-2003 - it was wild!

- Daciana was cool and I like this rendition of Claudia meeting her but will miss out on Lestat meeting her a bit!
-Armand’s smirk and “yeah” back to Daniel was so JKDHFBFYDLFKGOKDNF
- Lestat’s presence was ghostly and beautiful and he looked so angelic at the end.
- Claudia smoking the cig and shoving the boy and then being an optimistic sweetie pie was such lovely I love seeing her duality.
- I’m sad Louis’ night was ruined by that guy calling him out on their lie
- love this show
21:51 The song that the children are singing has my name in it 😭 and claudia also sings it. I'm now Canon in interview with the vampire, done.
21:51 was it raining autumn WAS IT?!
26:35 I maybe laughed a little bit when that happened, but wmafter that it was just sad
44:37 what in the theatre des vampires
1:13:56 the bleach blonde hair, BATTLE OF THE BLONDES
1:17:34 🍻
1 Armand is so suspicious, I didn't expect them to do that so early
2 No talk of Morgan 😢 sike he was sort of mentioned
3 loving the interview 🙌🏻
I had a whole bit where I talked about Morgan and Emilia in my original edit but it dragged and I figured since I mentioned the book scene in the interview that would make up for it. But I did love that element!!
That last scene gets me everytime 😢
see i thought i was the only one that actually liked the aesthetic of louis and Armand's bedroom, it's so fitting for a vampire! I get the bars are off-setting and such but still, I loved the design
You are not alone! We are freaks together!
So confession: this video came up in my suggested MONTHS ago when I was struggling to sleep and fell asleep to a deep dive about fraggle rock. And I woke up to just the part about meeting Sam Reid and was so confused…
So not only am I back after having seen both seasons but I just got the weirdest deja vu from that part
Thanks!!
I saw this reaction yesterday and i was delighted to hear the chat with you and one of the writers Hannah :)
Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!! Finally!!!
😘😘😘
You. Are. A. Joy. Great review! 🧡
Thank you!!!
OMG! I have so many things to say:
1. I thought those were Krusty the clown earrings. Beautiful
It's nice to share a IWTV obsession, even if it's with strangers on the internet!
GIVE ME NON-BINARY GABRIELLE
OR GIVE ME DEATH!!!!
😮 My brain just gave me the image of Emma D'Arcy as Gabrielle. I know they're quite a bit younger than Sam and they will very likely be too busy with House of the Dragon for the foreseeable future, but an insanely talented non binary actor like Emma in the role of Gabrielle would be SO cool.

I've been waiting so patiently for the series to be released on the BBC so I can finally watch your content! I'm going to try to make the series last. The first episode was incredible.
@@coolstertothecore I’m so glad it’s finally out in the UK!! Buckle up babe, there’s a big storm coming! I hope these videos will help carry you through 😁
@@AutumnBottomBrown it feels like there's so much to notice in every scene but I can relax knowing you'll explain it all for me. 😁
Lol these reactions are me😂💕💕
We are ALL seen here
Thia episode was fucking awesome I'm already jonesing for episode 2 like I kind of wish we got the first two episodes in one day like they did for Season 1 😭 , also Autumn do you prefer the Season Premiere of Season 1 or the Season Premiere of this season ?
I loved this episode but the pilot is one of if not my very favorite episode of television ever, so it’s gonna be pilot all the time.
@@AutumnBottomBrown Yeah I agree , there was nothing like seeing the Pilot for the first time, the pilot is truly legendary.
@AutumnBottomBrown seeing the pilot at 1am on a random tuesday morning was as close to a religious experience as I think I'm ever gonna get
1:40 Sounds like Adam’s art project in Yellowjackets!
❤🩸❤️ you done did it again.
I do it for you 🫡🫡
'see you season 3' hmmmmmmm so what you're saying is that you have an exclusive contract where you get to interview all of them every season? please? also would love to see you at the season 3 premiere doing red carpet interviews xoxoxox (manifesting for you)
Yasss, might have rewatch this after I rewatch the episode, not me hearing you say sycamore and immediately thinking about your Lana X Vampire Chronicles characters epic series.
LDR/TVC video series, you will ALWAYS be famous!!!!
37:18... baby, its a diva-off! And WE ARE THE WINNERS WHO HAVE GOTTEN TO SEE THE GOTH MOTHER-OFF LIVE EVERY WEEK FOR SEVEN WEEKS STRAIGHT SINCE 2022🙂↕️ (
And I’ve got my popcorn!!
@@AutumnBottomBrown thank you for not being 100% condemning of Armand and instead willing to look at it from where we are IN the show.
Some people online are already looking at it from the full VC POV but you willing to be like “you know this is where, as of s2 ep 1, Armand and Louis are as a couple and this is how I’m going to see them” is a refreshing take, Autumn.
You are literally THEE ONLY person who has read the books, and has more knowledge than I do, that I am willing to watch their reactions and their videos on IWTV because you see it as book!canon and show!canon and you can keep those two apart for the time being.
@@NyikoDoris ah!! Thank you so much for this comment!! I try my best to keep an open mind and take what the show gives us vs expecting a 1:1 adaptation of the book because it clearly isn’t that!
Autumn!!!! Ily. What a video, what a surprise (??!!!!!). So glad to have met you 🩷 can’t wait to inevitably meet again as we simultaneously lose our sanity over vampires together. Will never forget Louis saying “What can the damned really say to the damned?” in the episode and you going, “There it is 🙂↕️”
I’m still reeling over the surprise.. it was SO NICE meeting you as well!!! And I mean, the line drop, iconic moment! We have to identify it when it happens!
I am so confused that your view and sub count is so low. Is this channel hosted elsewhere?
Only on RUclips baby!
@@AutumnBottomBrown The only possible explanation for the relatively low view count despite the illustrious viewership is the main cast hang out in Rolin's office at lunch time to watch your latest offering to the IWTV fandom together. Jacob sits cross legged on the ground, Sam and Delainey are sitting in front of Rolin's desk (with perfect posture; Jacob resting his back against Sam's chair). Rolin and Hannah are sitting in swivel chairs either side of the monitor. Assad is perching on a low filing cabinet and Eric is sitting off to the side eating his lunch and observing. Assad totally went to the office next door to fetch a rolling chair for himself but immediately gave it Eric when he came in. This is the only explanation.
@@psychedelicpegasus7587 every single detail you’ve said here is correct and true
Im going feral autumn i would LOVE TO WATCH THIS VIDEO BUT AMC HAVENT GIVEN THE UK A RELEASE DATE
NAURRRRRRRRR AMC WHAT ARE YOU DOINGGG

Desperate to know when it’s coming to UK! Wrote to the BBC asking them to do it!
It’s been raining unexpectedly these days. 😂
You stayed at the Belvedere? Chiiiile! A lot of sanging and going on up in there 😈
A LOT!!
Episode 1 was amazing
AMAZIIIING!!!!
@@AutumnBottomBrown my heart is breaking for Claudia 😢😢
@@focusonu9668 SAME PAL
@@focusonu9668 me too, and when Louis finally realize the role he played in her misfortune, it will be too late..
I feel like this kiss was strangely edited, was it a fake kiss? 33:37
The Bishop’s Castle reference! 😂
ATOMIC ORANGE YOU ARE SO REAL FOR KNOWING THAT
@@AutumnBottomBrown Colorado gang representing!
Is the blood not able to sustain vampires because the people it’s taken from are malnourished literally and spiritually? Does this or the practice of feeding on the dead yield zombie vampires?
Wait wait wait is season 3 confirmed?!? 😱
omg hannah moscovitch!!!!!!
YAAAA!!!!!
@AutumnBottomBrown it was such a good chat!! I love and admire Hannah, so this was a treat! I think it's brilliant to have someone as knowledgeable of the show and the VC universe such as yourself, having these conversations with the people who helped craft it. Makes for an engaging and richer chat. You know just what to ask, you get it!! The podcast for season one was fine (I don't know if they're bringing that back), but I personally like this waaay more. So happy for you, Autumn ❤️
@@nothingismanageable ahh thank you so much for this!! They’re not bringing the podcast back unfortunately, but keep your eyes on this channel… 👀👀
@AutumnBottomBrown I definitely will!! Very excited to see who you're talking to next. I just want to hear from everyone involved in the creation of this show, honestly. I will die if you somehow get Carol Cutshall on here.
Louis gaslights Claudia about the Romanian vampires.. baboons? Really, Louis?? 😂
Like really Louis? Buddy?? Come on
The war sucks, but your hair is perfect!
How do u feel about the groan? Some say its akasha
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I’ve been very torn on the groan. Half of me says “it’s purely thematic; a swaying building means the characters and audience that they are not on stable ground. It adds an environmental level of uncertainty and eerieness.” But then the other half of me says “it’s something more.” I don’t think it’s Akasha just because if it was Akasha, that means (to me) Armand is keeping watch over her or at the very least knows about her & I think it’s a huge part of the Armand/Marius/Lestat dynamic that Marius never told Armand the truth about Those Who Must Be Kept but he told Lestat immediately. But who knows!
You convinced Brett to watch???
@@aj7058 his feeble will was no match for my tsunami of incessant pestering & nonstop annoyance
@@AutumnBottomBrown you're a good sister.
@@aj7058 I know what’s best for him and his wellbeing as only an older sister can
How can you get any sense of what you're watching if 40% of the time you're mugging for the camera over actually watching the screen, and another 40% of the time you've paused to go on a 10 minute yap after watching a minute thirty of the episode?
she’s already watched it, and I’d assume that the viewers have also already watch these episodes, this is like discussion and fan girl time . If you wanted an uninterrupted video, GO WATCH THE EPISODE
This chick is so cringey with her outdated early 2018 editing style. But I love season two, much better than season one. And I love Delainey's Claudia much better. And Armand is too gorgeous in episode one. And I can't wait to see him and his crazy crew in episode two.❤❤❤
I am still iffy about Lestat, I still dislike his portrayal in the show. I still think Tom's portrayal wins, and Anne Rice had thought so too. And there's a quote and video about her saying that, so her opinion matters because she wrote the books. But maybe he will win me over in season two, maybe. But so far, Armand, Claudia are my favorite.❤
You know she gonna see your comment right? Maybe you should learn to say your criticism with more tact? I quite love her style and her passion.
Needs more roblox oof sound effects and extreme close ups. You can tell she tries hard and that makes my tummy hurt.
