Imagine doing something so monumentally stupid that the parent who went no contact with you and the entire human race over 200 years ago has to pick you up from a concert.
This happened to my friend Lestat de Lioncourt…

Jacob Anderson’s delivery of “hello, Lestat” in 2x08 gets meeee. I love how the catharsis of that scene comes from a somewhat different place than the novel, and a big part of that is how the show has more intimately engaged with the relationship between Louis and Lestat—and pushed Louis to a more truthful acknowledgement of the nuances of it. So on a story level, it absolutely makes sense that the catharsis comes from us feeling that Louis is encountering a person he knows and understands.
But I also think, on a meta level: it’s an acknowledgement of the understanding the larger culture has re: Lestat. He is the primary hero of the Vampire Chronicles, he is one of the most iconic vampires of the last fifty years…some of the audience will definitely encounter Daniel’s revelation and Lestat’s disposition in New Orleans with surprise/shock, but many won’t! Many have been waiting for this person. And I think providing space for the catharsis of an *expected* revelation is really clever.
#I just generally am so impressed by the show’s interest in encompassing and articulating#Lestat’s arc and character. without falling into the trap of. well let’s soften or even SKIP IWTV. it’s soooo#the temptation to do that must have been Real. and I’m obsessed with how they didn’t. critical!#to see the opportunity in the story’s original structure and not just the potential problems. to lean in and explore…I really enjoy it.
