“AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW AKASHA?!” GAGGED. AALIYAH DIDNT SNATCH OUR WIGS FOR NOTHING IN THAT FILM YOUD BETTER WATCH QUEEN OF THE DAMNED IMMECHIATELY!!!!! 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️

Lestat didn't come to Paris to put them on trial. He came to Paris knowing that Claudia and Louis will be charged for murder and eventually killed, so he came to try to save them. Despite their diffucult relations, they were his family, he loved them! He was forced to be there and take part in that charade by Armand. He saved Louis, but didn't save Claudia because he didn't have enough strength to save both, he was literally bleeding from his ear when he saved Louis and the room was full of vampires ready to mind-f*c-k everyone. Basically he was put into situation were he was forced to choose whom to save, his body still didn't recover fully and his powers had limits. The fact that he didn't save Claudia will haunt him for the rest of his life, and the scene in New Orleans just proves it.

Someone said Daniel ruined the same marriage twice and it's so true.

Louis gave Armand that "Don't come to school tomorrow" energy. The ending of this episode got me all up in my feels. Jacob and Sam were ACCTTTIIINNGGGG!

Akasha and Enkil were the mother and father of the vampires. Lestat is the most power fledgling due to the blood of ancient vampires coursing through his veins. Louis considers Armand an ancient at 500 yrs old, Akasha was 6,000 years old.

Chileee I knew once Louis uttered that meow that Franny didn’t stand a chance…

I'm dying to see the relationship between Daniel and Armand after what Armand did to Daniel.

Psychotic Louis has always been my favorite Louis, from the confessional booth to feet-in-coffin-rocks forever.

LOUIS AND DANIEL WERE MVPS OF THIS EPISODE ❤🔥 Jacob Assad Delainey Sam Eric and Ben Daniels killed it this season! Everyone acted they’re asses off and I can’t wait to see more of them next season!

Girlll they told us VERY early on Rasheed was with them folks 😂 And yes love you should know the Queen of the Damned Akasha 🤴🏾

Lmao 🤣 not Louis turning on Cerebro! Lol Armand turning Daniel was like the most pettiest act he could do in that situation.

Lestat is eating rats because he's become a recluse.

Akasha is Queen of the Damned ( all vampires) the most powerful , God like creature, her and husband Enkil 😮 We found out about Rashid and the Talamasca when he and Daniel went to lunch ( I think episode 6) and Ragland came in told Daniel not to worry about Rashid, then Rashid came in and stood behind Daniel and Ragland and told Daniel " if he wanted to be safe he should have ignored Louis ' letter and not come to Dubai " 😊 Lestat came because he built the Theatre and had already list Nicolas there, so everyone he loved would perish in a something he created. Armand and the coven were doing something to Lestat but if he could have he would have saved Claudia but he had to chose and he used all he had for Louis. But Claudia will haunt them both forever. 😢

We learned that Rashid was a double agent in episode 6 when they were in the restaurant with Raglan James lol

OMG, your “flame on” took me out!!! I was not ready 😂😂😂

Regarding Lestat, he wasn’t as terrible as we saw up to present day. . The Lestat memories were NOT how things happened. . Remember EVERYTHING Louis recalled about things Lestat did was warped and manipulated by Armand. . He made Louis hate Lestat and made him into more of a villain than he is. Current day Lestat is the FIRST time we are meeting REAL Lestat. And notice how different he is than the Lestat that Louis remembered. Lestat loved Claudia. . He carries his grief and regret in his mind and will for the rest of his days. Jacob even said Lestat wanted to save Claudia but he couldn’t if he wanted to save Louis. . But he WANTED to. Also I think season 3 will be Louis interviewing Lestat so he can regain his lost memories and learn Lestats origins. Then Louis will give Daniel the interview at the end of season 3 and Daniel will write a memoir titled“The Vampire Lestat” ♥️

The show was splendid. I am a 48yr old book and movie fan and this adaptation with the scenery and performances just SENT ME!!!!!!! We all dressed up when Interview the movie came out and I was 16 in '94. It was a thing for us nerds, girlies!

Real Rasheed was standing there when Daniel was talking to the Talamasca at the restaurant.

*HINT Akasha = “ITS BEEN A LONG TIME WE SHOULDN'T LEFT YOU WITHOUT A DOPE BEAT TO STEP TO”.

Louis snapped back to his pimp days and tore them up 😂 but Lestat is the MVP because he came to save his family after all they did 😭

Akasha is a book readers easter egg

Spoilers: Akasha along with Enkil are the king and queen of all the vampires. They are the very first. Also, Rashid being with the Talamasca is confirmed when he takes Daniel to meet with one of the Heads of the Talamasca and then later lies to Armand about where they went and whether they spoke to anyone. It was a quick thing but it does reveal that he's in with the Talamasca.

This is a master class in adapting a book series.

The best comments. 1. Gravel on someone construction site 2. Planning the get back 😂😂 3. If you see dead people charge it to the game 4. Louie getting ready to say Dracarys😂 5. Y’all don’t have no security 6. John storm flame on 7. Head was rolling with the deep 😂 8. Louie turns on that oven 9. Sooooooo many I had to stop counting

Lestat is considerably strong. Being the first and only fledgling of a 500+ vamp infused him with strength,plus he drank from Akasha,who is 6k. He's really hard to kill. You can only hurt him real bad.

“Flame on!” had me screaming 😂 And I loved badass Louie in the finale! He was in his Blade era 🔪

They are going to let you know the whole tale in Season 3 when Lestat tells us his life story based on the Vampire Lestat book. Akasha, not previously mentioned on the show, is the mother of all vampires. Her blood is extremely powerful and it was believed that if you kill her, you kill all vampires. It's a longish complicated story, but show runners have hinted that they will combine parts of The Vampire Lestat with The Queen of the Damned, so we'll see.

It was on Lestat, everybody in the room knew that, but Louis didn’t want Lestat to carry the burden of that alone, because he was just as responsible. Listen I get being mad at Lestat, and he will never be absolved for Claudia, and he knows it, he doesn’t forgive himself and he never will, and he’s not asking for it. That doesn’t mean Louis can’t offer him an ounce of grace, whether he deserves it or not. And also, maybe Louis was saying that for himself as well, since he can’t forgive himself for Claudia either. These are two fathers grieving the loss of their daughter, in spite of their own shortcomings.

Louis was talking to dead people and that dead cat. Meow! 😻

I was watching another channel and the reviewer clocked that Armand wasn’t bleeding from his ears when he “glamoured” a theatre full of spectators. In season 1, Lestat bled from his ears and almost passed out from “glamouring” the soldiers. I was thinking that it was because Armand was older, but… nope lol. Also, during the Kangaroo trial, Lestat does ask to be condemned and constantly goes off script. He tried his best.

I agree! I think Louis was already suspecting Armand’s role in this and that was the whole point of him doing the interview. It was just a cover for Armand but the fact that Louis burned Daniel’s computer shows that it wasn’t about getting a book published. He just needed help to get the details right.

Louis really just threw his security gaurds under the bus they can't fight any vampire that comes there

Akasha is a very ancient vampire queen. Aaliyah played her in Queen of the Damned

Akasha is the first vampire and the. Queen of the vampires all originated from her.

Akasha is the Mother of all Vampires. The Queen of the Damned and an extremely powerful vampire. As someone else mentioned, there’s a movie based on book named Queen of the Damned. Where Aaliyah plays her

"Come to me Francis." The best part of the finale. Unless Armand mind fukd Daniel he had to say yes to accepting the dark gift. I think he always wanted it anyway.

We cannot believe anything armand said. He probably never lost his leadership of the coven and stayed leader the whole time. He just loves playing the victim/servant role.

Strength is not just determined by age but by who turns you

Thoroughly enjoy your reviews, glad I came across your channel.

👏👏This episode was everything a season finale should be. Bravo to the crew and cast. 🎉 Give them their flowers

Daniel's book sold 5 million copies...mostly to vampires who were "Whut! Whut! How tell-all is this book?"

I’m sorry to disappoint but I don’t think Loustat are ever going to end it and leave it alone 😂

Akasha was the female vampire that Aaliyah portrayed. She had a relationship with Lestat.

Armand's like "wait girl oh but that's not oh wait oh wait oh could you could you run that again but I don't think that's really true" girl shut the hell up Armand! 🤣😂😆

They're modeling S3 after Hedwig and the Angry Inch which means Louie is going to be the subject this time(there's going to be whole rock musical ballads about him), he's going to be there but we're seeing a different side of Louie, how Lestat sees him and the trial shows clips of that Louie, the fuck boy manipulator who is cool and emotionally distant, a big contrast to how Louie see's himself, so we'll get Louie but not the Louie we know I also think we're getting more Claudia flashbacks too, so Delainey may be back in S3

Chile this episode put me through it! My lord! Armand being the orchestrater ain’t surprised me, but the letting Louis die part did, because then what was the point of this if not to have Louis for himself?? I guess that’s a question for the future. I’m so happy for Louis man, I’m glad he got to fully grieve Claudia with someone who fully understands and that’s Lestat. I really liked that scene. But once again I have so many more questions than answers about his role in all this as well. I’m glad Louis got out and is single and living his best life. That little shrine to Paul and Claudia at the end made me shed a tear. Excited for s3, and as long as Louis is still a main character and isn’t sidelined imma tune in cause there are still so many unanswered questions. S2 was absolutely phenomenal

If you watched Queen of the damned with Aaliyah, she played Akasha.

You don't know Queen Askasha?? Pick yourself up and try again! You better tell somebody!

Rolin said how Louis is still gonna be front and center and Sam said they’re picking apart stuff from other side characters from the books to put all the focus onto Louis , it’s the Louis and Lestat show so I’m not scared at all for him truly , Armand and Daniel gonna be more fucked up than ever next season Devil’s Minion hive oh!, if they do start to drop hints about Akasha and probably see her next season I hope they take notes from Aaliyah she was so good we need another queen like that y’all … but honestly I can’t wait for s3 this is crazy tho the finale was too good left me with so many questions, it’s like concert depression for me rn y’all *pun intended* 🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

“that red. That’s homosexual! stop! stop!!” 😅

The ACTING! That’s the comment.

I knew Armand was as lying about everything! He was too powerful to make it like a young vampire like Santiago was taking over! Like nah!!

Akasha is the mother of all vampires. She is the first and most powerful vampire that ever lived. Period. Check the movie Queen of the Damned. Aaliyah played her and lestat her lover.

Lestat did not want any of them dead

Queen of the Damned movie was not a good representation of the book, but some details are true, so if you dont want to read, its a good bet. Lestat becomes the lead vocalist in a rock band and basically takes the next step in outing vampires. Eventually he becomes prince Lestat, though technically a king. 😊

Claudia was never going to be saved because she's based on Anne Rice's deceased daughter who died of leukemia. Louis is her and Lestat is based on her husband stan.

Lestat came back because he wanted to save them if he could. In the new behind the scenes, Sam (Sam Reid) says Lestat had to get the lay of the land mentally of the audience (which was partly why he goes into the audience so much). Remember Lestat told Claudia and Louis, the Vampires in Europe are vicious. He had to play along because he couldn’t defeat all of them. He could only save one, and it was Louis, in part because he knew Claudia couldn’t survive alone. He regretted not being able to save Claudia (see reconciliation scene). As we will probably see next season, Lestat and Armand’s relationship is very contentious.

Soooooo Louie became much stronger than Armand at some point, which is why it was important for Armand to manipulate his memories and the narrative.

Louis is not afraid of other vampires. Because he has Lestat blood, which has the blood of Akasha, the queen of the damn. And in the books a lot of vampires was afraid of Louis.

I am confused, how did that coffin trap Louis when vampires are super strong.. Armand don left Louis for dead… N still want to be with him. It’s the clocking by Daniel for me, letting Louis know it’s Lestat who saved you….

Akasha is the maker of ALL Vampires Queen of the Dammed Who Aliah played in the movie ❤Lestat carries her blood I can't WAIT FOR SEASON 3.

Yes you NEED to know Akasha because she is the origin of all Vampires.

Louis really was during the fire: Kings have honor, soldiers have bravery, poets have heart. But all I have is RAGE. By Naethan Apollo

The security would have been mortals that Louis wouldn't even sweat to clear out.

Lestat is a very powerful vampire thanks to his maker magnus and akasha the first vampire who is 6 thousand years old

Santiago could not have hurt Armand neither could Louis unless Armand allowed it. You would need to know who his maker is to know why that is true.

AKASHA IS LITERALLY MOTHER

happy 10k subs!

I still feel for Armand. He didn't know anything else and was isolated.

I don't think Louis ever loved Armand he was with him out of spite to Lestat

This show was wonderful. They kept outdoing themselves! I haven't read the books, but I heard that Lestat becomes a rock star to get Louis' attention. In the Queen of the Damned movie, other vampires didn't like that Lestat openly claimed to be a vampire even if humans didn't take it seriously. Becoming a rockstar in this adaptation might be a way for him to draw attention to himself so other vampires won't go after Louis. An act of love and protection

Louis bleed Santiago like a kochon.

I was surprised in a way about Armand but he said earlier in the second season the coven was all he knew. He was insecure, and having all kinds of mixed emotions. I guess in a sick sense if he couldn't have Louie no one else could.

Adrian not knowing who Akasha is, is blowing my mind.

To see Claudia’s dress on the wall 😢🙌🏾🙌🏾

I think they said it is impossible to burn lestat unless he wanted to be burned.

Akasha and her consort Enkil were the first vampires. She is ancient and immensely powerful. She can't even be killed by the sun. All vampire blood is connected to her.

akasha is the first vampire that ever existed love the vid!!

Really good and enjoyable review! Thank you.

I did not notice the AC DC tee shirt Daniel has on during the interview 😂 becoming a vamp allowed him to be bi akeeeee

How you seen all this nasty gritty dutty scary stuff but you’ve never beheld the glamorous terror that is Aaliyah as Akasha.

Question: Am I supposed to know who Akasha is? Answer: Yes Question: Was I supposed to notice Rashid was working for the Talamasca? Answer: Yes

Akasha is from “Queen of the Damned”. I wonder if they will have her in Season 3. If so , I WISH I could play her.

I know Jacob is handsome and a heartthrob to a lot of people but I never saw it until he was on his spirit of vengeance vigilante bs this episode. 😍

I've been a fan of Eric Bogosian since "Talk Radio" and love the impact that he's been on this. 💞💞💞💞

I don't think Lestat is eating rats I think he sensed Louis was near and coming to him and wanted to have food for him incase he was hungry. I just came across your channel love your content ❤

Great review but when you re-watch it remember that Lestat is still weak and damaged from his "murder." Once Claudia & Louis met the coven - Claudia was doomed to die. Lestat knew that, that's why he still came to Paris, even in his weakened state. He only had the strength to save one of them and he chose Louis over Claudia, but his grief & loss were real. The reunion scene is the first time we see "actual" Lestat. Everything else we're shown about him is from else's memory or skewed perspective. Now the Talamasca 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. Akasha is the Queen and the first of all vampires. She's also over 6,000 years old. 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?

I love your reviews & reactions!!! HAVE YOU EVER SEEN TRUE BLOOD?! I’d love to know your review on TRUE BLOOD ITS SOOOOOOO GOOD!!!

You sent me talking about that handwriting in the red pen. . . 🤣

Girl, please read the books!!! It will all make sense and you will know what’s up with season 3 and Lestat’s band.

32:45 THE QUEEN OF THE DAMMED!

Watch queen of the damned and you’ll see why they were gagging at the akasha moment

Just found you a few videos ago and absolutely love your vibes new subscriber here

Was anyone else rocking the boat when he said he didn’t know who Akasha was??? lol 😂 because girl wtf 😂😂

Aaliyah played Akasha in the movie in 2002.

I’m remembering a part of the interview where Claudia and madeleine left and Louis said he didn’t care or he didn’t think about it. The relationship was just messed up.

Oh my goodness! Adrian! Queen of the Damned!! AALIYAHHHHHHH

I believe the only time we see the real Lestat from the two seasons is this last scene and he is very different from the description made by Louis throughout the 2 seasons. In this scene Louis admits he wants to make Lestat suffer because he is suffering (being a vampire). The whole two seasons were based on Louis pov 😮hating Lestat so how can we believe that he did not exaggerate on the behaviour of Lestat. He did trash Lestat in the first interview in the 70 (episode 5) but in the same time he cannot forget Lestat. Here after discovering the truth about the role of Armand and finally accepting his nature, he come to thank you Lestat and to forgive whatever really happens between them. The behaviour of Louis in this last scene (objective and not a pov) towards Lestat is completely different from the beginning of the interview. Facts are here: Lestat warmed him not to turn a kid (Louis admits it in episode 7 and in the last scene), that the European vampires are vicious (see what happens). Lestat always hide his power ( Akasha blood) to avoid Louis to feel uncomfortable (contrary to Armand). The real Lestat ( as shown here) cares for Louis (also when he was called by Armand in episode 5), suffers not be able to save Claudia. Why was he at the trial, this will be clearly explained in season 3 I believe. They will need time to understand each other , accept each other to be finally together but it will take few seasons because they will be very very busy with what is coming.

Yes , Rashid was connected to Talamasca in several episodes
