[s @emitflame]

[fran 🥦 @mamaoatmilk]

waking up to the episode 2 reviews

[s @emitflame]

@ccinematically atp i can’t even say i’d recommend starting it 🫩 it’s nowhere near the quality of s1 or 2 it’s disappointed me immensely 😔

[s @emitflame]

@tannedjoongi white people always acting like racism and people of color facing it is a foreign concept to them like she needed that to be explained to her? oh i’m canadian so i can’t understand why a british south asian man might be made to feel lesser than abt himself and his work. Fuck off

[bay @patricidenjoyer]

the more i think about it the more egregiously vile this gets. they’ve been pretending race doesn’t exist for a while now and it’s apparently a banned topic in interviews, but they sure remember race when it comes to humiliating and "humbling" their black and brown characters

[ash (he/him) @coldeveryseason]

iwtv was excellent black-led television greenlit in the early 2020s when the broader "liberal" culture was pretending to care about black people and tvl is the embodiment of the whitelash to that cultural moment- so many choices for s3 make sense when you view it in that context

[s @emitflame]

you are talentless racist hacks and should be ashamed of and deeply apologetic about the things you’ve written as a fully nonblack team this season and what you’ve done to contribute to anti-victim rhetoric in the culture with your flagrant mishandling of abuse narratives

[s @emitflame]

@IWTVWriters @moscotweets @AMCsAnneRice TVL is egregiously antiblack, sensationalizes racist and incestuous abuse, has zero stakes bc of an over-reliance on retcons and revisits using “unreliable narration” as an excuse all to serve your white lead and has no coherent structure,

[s @emitflame]

potential fandom discourse which has come at the cost of genuine creativity and originality all while looking massively insecure, and has the most insufferable, grating, out of touch, cringey dialogue i’ve ever heard. pompous white millennial gen x speak.

[s @emitflame]

why was this even a costuming choice when there is zero exploration in the show of why the band is all white or their possibly racist attitudes or actions like you cannot just completely drop race from the conversation and then do shit like this

[s @emitflame]

so every person that worked on this was just foaming at the mouth to be overtly racist this season ?

[radical loucentric moralist #tvlspoilers @tiredldpdlfan]

making cancel jokes after writing ep 6 hm https://t.co/vCPvyFD3PI

[Unwell Mel @RedWithLipstick]

"thought & care & information" about a series that erases Gabrielle's transmasc identity, makes several microaggressions against Louis, uses a black girl's sa for a white man's character arc, and only shows wlw kisses for the male gaze

[s @emitflame]

like ppl were just glazing hannah and rolin left and right and getting so mad at ppl for critiquing these very telling signs that they were continuing down a truly horrible path and now. idek what to say but these writers are going to hell

[s @emitflame]

Ever since lestat said “you have the same problem?” about continuing to be haunted by their dead daughter that HE helped kill where the romance was emphasized more than the grief i knew that writers’ room would continue to disrespect and downplay claudia as the heart of the show

[Louis de Troy du Lac Theorist @loudetroydulac_]

#tvlspoilers so louis & lestat "dealt with the problem" of claudia, & have obtained "closure" now that they know she's suffering in hell alone while they get to continue on with their fuckass lives

The Vampire Claudia, eternal roof shingle flying off of Louis & Lestat's house

[s @emitflame]

i hated that stupid fucking finale so bad and people were like trust in rolin jones !!! he doesn’t hate louclaudia it’s actually so #incharacter and #ontheme that louis would run back to lestat and they would have a romantic moment not caring about their dead daughter together

[s @emitflame]

i can’t watch yet but i don’t even know if i want to

[s @emitflame]

knowing they were probably about to do something absolutely heinous and reviews feeling like we were not being proved wrong even in the slightest and it probably even being worse than anticipated

[gabe uttsecs⁷ 🥀 @stigmatam4rtyr]

“the failures” is a fitting theme for this season given that it is rolin jones’, the entire writing team and co producers’ complete FAILURE to make a season of television worthy of being attached to what was once Interview With The Vampire
