also this was the first ep where i could feel the effects of them filming during the writer's strike bc it didn't feel as polished as the others and a lot of that comes from the writers being able to be on set and make changes in the moment or the actors and directors being allowed to play w the material but bc all of those things are against the rules of a writer's strike it felt less cohesive/finished

#and these were all things i expected so i'm not super upset i just noticed it as it went on that it was a little clunky #it felt like they were trying to figure out to have lestat loom over the ep (which was important) but went w the most obvious option #which i didn't love and thought could've been explored more or done in a more nuanced way but it is what it is #also same goes for integrating the talamasca storyline. like that should've been done in a less disruptive way #but once again it is what it is. hopefully the rest of the eps can smooth out the bumps of this one #bc nothing here is unfixable or show-ruining it's just clumsier writing than i'm used to from this show #vampterview #iwtv spoilers
