That's fine just drop the show. I dont know what you want AMC to do about Jacob not being nominated, they put him up for consideration and it's upto the award show to nominate him, Jacob acts out pretty much every actor who got his place but he wasnt awarded because award shows are racist as well as other things that influnce their choices.

As for Jacob may have gotten in if he had been in supporting catogary, you are being willifully obtuse to what people are saying. People arent saying Jacob as a lead should have been entered for best support actor, they are saying that historically in award shows best supporting actor is easier to break into then lead actor, therefore in s3 if Jacob was to be put forward as best supporting actor he may have a better chance at the nomination.

As for Sam getting a nomination he deserves, he has been one of the best supporting actors in a show this year. You may not agree, that's fine but you cant force everyone to see acting in the same way.

I also do not understand why it is that I see people complain that Sam has been nominated instead of Jacob but barely a single peep about the white actors jacob lost to who definitely dont deserve to be there like Anthony starr and eddie redmayne?

But back to what I said above, yes, drop the show because as of s3 Lestat will stay a main character along with Louis. Meanwhile Jacob has a new album coming out, another movie called 'bad apple' or 'bad apples' that you may enjoy more but if you choose to continue to stay you may want to focus your energy on the award shows that are historically racist and always giving out badly timed awards to actors or who are brought by money. I cant blame AMC for not spending money for noms when they can spend it on the show instead.

Hi Anon! Thank you for your points!

First of all, please don't tell me what to do, i did not ask. This has actually invigorated me to watch Season 3 anyways. So thank you for that, my hyperfixation prevailes out of pure spite.

I dont know if you realize but " Lestat and Louis are main characters" is exactly what i want. " lestat is now the main character and louis is a supporting character who's two seasons can be ignored as a falsehood now" is something i don't want and something i don't actually see happening in the show. My post wasn't even about that. My post was about Interview with the vampire in relation to its attached company, PR, and its fandom, not the film industry, the plot or award shows in general. Yes award shows are racist, and sexist and homophobic, they have been that way since the beginning all over the globe. I'm not sure why you're advising me to watch more of them? I have never and will never watch an award show.

I like that you bring up this point tho:

"I also do not understand why it is that I see people complain that Sam has been nominated instead of Jacob but barely a single peep about the white actors jacob lost to who definitely dont deserve to be there like Anthony starr and eddie redmayne?"

Its something good to chew on, tho i do suspect that when people just talk about Sam it's because they are speaking within the context of the show and not of the CCA as a whole. But it is a very good point!

I'm trying to figure out why you sent me this message on anon, when you could have just responded to my post? The only conclusion i can come to is that you want to discourage me from watching the show because of the points i possited, one of them being that quitting the show now wouldnt break my heart as much as it would have done a year ago. The reasons i gave for this had nothing to do with the plot, and everything to do with the culture around it, and yet you do call upon that as the reason i should quit? why do you want a person not to engage with a media because they have the ablitily and guts to view it critically and express opinions it and its culture around it? interesting..i wont be doing that.

ps. this was kinda strange anon not gonna lie. I mean going on anon is such a statement. If you don't want me to know who you are it suggests that whatever you're gonna say is kinda controversial....but you didn't do that....? you just told me to leave the show because there are somethings i dont like about its culture around it......wierd
