I believe when Louie kept repeating Claudia is dead I was dead. That last I was dead is when he accepted who he is. Amazing writing, videography, music choices and ACTING. Wonderful just Wonderful. Let’s GO season 3!

The Talamaca knew how dangerous Louis was because of Lestat being his maker. Louis is much more powerful then even he realized because he was running from his vampiric nature. But when he was crazy and hellbent on revenge - he was a force to be reckoned with. It also took Claudia a much longer time to die from the sunlight because she too carried the blood of Akasha from Lestat. In the book "The Vampire Lestat" Lestat becomes a rock star singing about being a vampire in order to draw fire from the vamps going after Louis. So even though they don't resume their romantic relationship, the love is true and they always come to protect each other. (Although they are endgame) Lestat & Daniel both work to protect Louis until things flip when Akasha awakens. Something to think about - Armand said he preserved Louis happiness. Daniel made Louis happy. Maybe his turning Daniel wasn't fully out of spite. Perhaps it was as apology gift to Louis. Perhaps it's because Armand finally found someone who could best him & hold his own against him. And by being his maker - he would always have someone he couldn't read and would therefore be a match for his own mind. Or perhaps Daniel wanted the gift. We'll see in season three, perhaps?

what is this bullshit?

Update: I've edited a sentence in the opening of the video with the CZcams Editor for clarity. Previously, it sounded like I was giving Daniel and the Talamasca credit for burning the coven. The audio skips a bit. Sorry for that. My old comment below: Minor Correction: In opening of video a line was mistakenly cut out in final edit. Before "Thanks to Daniel Molly & the Talasmaca.." I was supposse to say "Louis & Armand had a falling out." It sounds like I'm saying the coven got its just deserts thanks to Daniel. Though Armand was part of the coven...and he did get his just deserts in this episode... so it still makes sense maybe. Sorry.

You sound sleppy...

That episode, man! My heart!

the tawdry sex is just a little bit of the spice in the pool of blood that is the show. yeah.....

I agree with this

Nope. Spoiler alert: Armand needs to erase the memory of the time he tried to "fix" Claudia...by cutting off her head and attaching it to a woman. Then when Claudia was burnt in the sunlight, he removed the black stitches that kept the head on.

I think it would be better to remove the animated head, . Your overview is quite helpful, but the head is distracting.❤

I screamed at my screen when the coven grabbed everyone. This show just sucks you in and takes you on a ride. Real Rashid is up to something. Why lie to cover Daniel?

I think you're right. I think that this might be Armand and Louis' relationship. I also see how this was like "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf". The ugly back and forth retorts did remind me of Martha and George. Thank you for the recap/review.

20:05 the detail of Armand being really into technology is a book detail... They did change it to an iPad in the show but in the books he's like SUPER obsessed with microwaves and blenders. and the obsession is quite dark bc vampires... where he will put a live animals into the microwave and blend things together that really were NEVER meant to be blended together...So yeah, Armand constantly holding an iPad... It's a little Easter egg for fans of the book who know that detail about Armand.

I’m pretty sure Louis explains it as since he’s older it has little effect on him, the sun I mean

I felt like I was intruding on a divorce. Loved seeing Louis nasty side come out. So many people in the fandom infantalizes him when he's just as awful as the others. That said, his suicide scene was heartbreaking to see. Armand has done nothing wrong in his entire life, period 😂 Party boy Daniel was up for anything. This was truly a great hour of tv. I loved the breakdown/review. Can't wait to catch the next one.

Be honest, the film deviated from "max", that's why it was received poorly

Great breakdown and you got a sub! Hope you can review the miniseries Under the Bridge? The final episode ends this Wednesday.

Your voice is so sweet!

gracias x reaccionar el show es taaann bueno

The most intense episode yet. I think this one felt more condensed than the novel and I'm glad The Captain and Lana didn't get it on or else it would have felt so wrong.

In the bedroom in peisode 1 Armand told Louis they can get Daniel to say "what happened next" so it seems they or atleast Armand is trying to get Daniel to uncover his own memories

I think episode five is my favorite episode not directed by Park Chan Wook. Lana glossing him over to bring out the singer from the war film was heartbreaking by the Captain's reaction.

Mmmm. Season 2. I am vibrating.

Disappointing finale

For those interested, I did a follow up and responded to comments on stream: www.twitch.tv/videos/2124257693

The F in communism stands for Food.

I don’t understand your viewing of this series. You sound like you go by they/them, and yet you don’t play Fallout, especially Fallout New Vegas? Like come on! This is like being Italian and not liking pasta, or Irish and not an alcoholic. Fallout New Vegas is your culture. All jokes aside, not every form of media needs to be class conscious 24/7. The bit that was there was nice, especially for Amazon! Rings of Power wasn’t out there making pro union or pro worker propaganda out there either. Also in the Fallout show Muldover brought power back to the wasteland. That’s a huge win for the poor in the Wasteland. Water treatment facilities might kick back on, street lights so people don’t get mugged at night as much, machines that make food or materials could come back online, what I am getting at it is huge what she and the other NCR survivors accomplished. I think a huge disconnect for me was the raiders in vault 33 and how they were handled. Like are they raiders or are they NCR survivors turned evil? She has NCR Rangers in the final fight why couldn’t they come with her to the Vault raid instead of the savage raiders? And them being killed when it could have been more interesting if they were NCR that just wanting a better life and hurting the vault was the only way, instead of them being blood thirsty raiders who needed to be put down like the animals they were (that’s how the show portrayed them I wasn’t advocating it). All in all, best advice stop trying to make everything about material conditions and class struggle in a video game show, and just mellow out and enjoy the show for what it is and not what you want/demand it to cover or do.

You simply do not understand fallout which is fine

Let's be honest. Lucy's background.....bad dad has been played to death.

i watched the show before starting the fallout game series, and i used the old show "blood drive" as a kind of refrence to what kind of show they tried going for, and the comedy dident hit like that show does, also the way that naivety or the outright stupidy of some of the characters imo just does more harm than good to the story imo. it looks great ofc, and norm, as well as goggins story line's are actually compelling, but i cant help but to feel that people overhype bare-minimum a little to much simply bc "Video game on TV now"

Gonna be honest, I feel like fallout as a setting just isn't for you with things like not liking the old timey music, or violence and tropes, and fallout has always taken lots from westerns and other media, so calling it derivative is just... another sign the setting isn't for you in general. All the other joke characters you claim were out of place are entirely consistent with the games too.

I have to tell you as much as I think both of these are mediocre at best you lost your argument with me when you tried to hold the last of us up as something that should be repeated any more than a show like Willow should be

Gay

What frightens me more is that this is hyping people for a Fallout 5. It's like they reset their brains to how incompetent of a developer Bethesda is.

The real consequence of capitalism in the show is the apocalypse itself.

The lats of us is definitely top of my list as far as game adaptations go. But I thoroughly enjoyed this show as well. I had very few issues with it. I felt some things happened unnecessarily, and Max wasn't my favorite, but he's tolerable, and it didn't take away from the show. I'd say 8.5/10 would watch again.

Hey dude loved your review.... If feel your videos deserves more views. I feel you really need some EYE CATCHING THUMBNAILS... I can help you with that... That will eventually help you reach more viewers... Reply if you want good thumbnails

That's my criticism of True Det. S1. It's waaay too male-dominated. While Nite Country feels much more like real life from a female cop's POV. And once you see the ending I hope you'll appreciate that aspect especially. From the trailers, I could tell American Fiction had a very superficial feel. But Nitw Country has been fascinating with its social politics. Ethnic and gender roles work brilliantly here. After you see it all, I think you will agree.

"PromoSM"

You could put an insomniac to sleep in 5 minutes

I laughed so hard at this episode. Great analysis.

Personally I see Asher as way better of a person than Whitney. He is flawed and damaged but she is just horrible. She isn’t authentic with anyone ever. She uses Asher but hates him, she probably cheated on him(hence the abortions), she is a classic narcissist who uses people until they don’t need them, then they might as well be sent into space and not exist.

The not revealing the gender thing seems to also be a Jewish tradition/superstition.

I need someone else that I know to watch this finale to make sure I didnt dream it

It was a limited series there is no season 2

ending also reminds me of Junji Ito.

“There’s not some curse, I’m the problem! It’s not magic, it’s me. I’m a bad person and I’ve been dragging you down with me. I’m all in on you. I’m all in on Whitney. Whatever it takes, I’ll do it. And you won’t even have to tell me anymore because I know and I won’t be guessing. Because I know you, baby. If you didn’t want to be with me and I actually truly felt that, I’d be gone. I’d disappear. You wouldn’t have to say it. I would feel it and I would disappear.”

“ I know exactly what to do, don’t worry”

You're in space

this ending totally messed me up
