I thoroughly enjoyed it except for them changing Claudia to a different actress. I didn't like that actress as Claudia at all. And there were some slow parts in season two like the first 2 episodes. I didn't like the ending of the second season where Louis is taking on all the vampires. That's dumb.
But I liked how Louis was revealed to be an asshole even more than Lestat was. I felt like Louis was a selfish bastard. Lestat was just being Lestat. He wasn't all that bad of a guy. -

i agree with you on Louis and Lestat.
the actress who played Claudia first was in a deal with Cameron to work on Avatar: The Way of Water which intervened with the schedule on filming the show, so she had to quit. i didnt mind the other actress myself, but fair enough.

Man I loved that moment Lestat had with Louis where they made up and hugged. It was amazing. Great story telling about a broken relationship that needed mending. Who knew that vampires were so much like humans?
That replacement Claudia played the role totally different from the first Claudia. The first actress didn't have that awful southern accent and she was scary and cunning. The replacement brought that heavy accent and seemed to not be as scary. She didn't seem like Claudia at all. -

they're so goddamn ****ing horny all the time,
My buddy John reckons vampire sexuality, as represented in Bram Stoker's Dracula, reveals itself both as a phenomenon that is terrifyingly foreign to typical experience and, paradoxically, as a distorted mirror of human behavior. On the one hand, the vampire inspires a xenophobic response because his needs violate the normal limits of exogamy: he is physiologically dependent on women who are foreign to him. On the other hand, the novel undermines the very idea of the “foreign” by suggesting that even the most bizarre aspects of a vampire's sex life are strangely familiar — usually because they parody or literalize human sexuality.
My buddy John is best in small doses.

I just started it on Netflix but I'm wondering how many seasons they think they can stretch it out for. The book wasn't that long and if they don't start spilling over into Lestat's storyline the material should run out pretty quick.
