Trying to distract myself from all the anxiety about the midterms tomorrow(!), so hey, nice to see The Vampire Lestat listed as one of the 10 best streaming shows of the year here (along with Widow's Bay, Industry, Margo's Got Money Troubles, etc.

Love that!
Playbill credits AMC’s ‘Interview With The Vampire’ and ‘The Vampire Lestat’ as one of the main reasons for the vampire media renaissance and highlights Sam Reid's visit to ‘The Lost Boys’ cast last June/July in a new article. 🔗: playbill.com/article/the-los…

For season 4, I hope we get more photoshoots like this @GQMagazine one that really understand and utilize how timelessly beautiful Jacob and Sam's faces are. These shots were just so good.

I've enjoyed everyone's lists and decided to do this for my favorite/most influential plays. Yes seven of them are by the same playwright, but you know, he's really very good.

!! That's so cool for IWTV/TVL! From an article with the headline "Horror Impact Report: From James Wan to Curry Barker to Naomi Ackie, Variety Crowns the Talent Defining the Genre"
Variety highlights Rolin Jones for his work in #TheVampireLestat as one of the artists “fostering and elevating spooky storytelling”. “Jones has brought his playwriting background and distinct voice to AMC’s adaptation of Anne Rice’s ‘Vampire Chronicles’.”

The Vampire Lestat is cited in an article about how vampires are very popular right now (including this "rockstar season") so people are... getting permanent vampire teeth?

I learned that the quote isn't actually from the historical Thomas Aquinas: it's from a poem, "We Are Fields Before Each Other", written from Thomas Aquinas's perspective by a contemporary poet, Daniel Ladinsky (who, kind of hilariously, is from St. Louis). And the quote

Someone (whose analyses I always love) pointed out that Lestat is on his stomach here just as he is with Magnus (and thinking about it, I think those are the only two times we see him in that position), and now I'm just staring into nothingness (or was until I started typing).

And in case anyone missed it, the Television Critics' Association (220+ critics) put TVL on their list of the 10 best shows of 2026 so far. 😊 They took a BIG swing and I totally get it not being for everyone, but with the numbers and the critics, it's nice to see that rewarded.
