The way I immediately jumped up when I saw the notification for this video is probably a good sign that I'm going to stay just as obsessed with iwtv in 2025
When you’re a charismatic interviewer who’s authentic and knowledgeable of the subject, you get an introvert to never stop talking 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 the power of Autumn!
screaming crying throwing up we NEED a book club and an in-depth discussion after every episode with you and samothy as a regular feature, this tickles my nerdy vampire-riddled brain in all the best ways 😭
so many spoilers... i love how sam is so invested in the character that he wants to delve into all of lestat's lore. personally, i can't wait for more lestat and armand because that relationship is so fascinating. props to you for not losing your chill, because i would have folded like origami.
Longtime enthusiast of Anne Rice’s world. The tragedy of Lestat, for me, is his absolute love of Louie’s human nature: Louis possesses this very human drive towards self-destruction. Lestat loves his frailty, his audacity to chase death, his love for his family - all these things that make him human - yet, when Vampire Louis still struggles with these very human impulses, it is these impulses that enrage Lestat the most. When he’s strutting around town with Louis the fledgling, talking about how humans are just food now, I said out loud at the TV, “Lestat, you’re so full of shit!” 😂 The twist is, when Lestat finally gets a chance to once again experience human life, which he longs for (as any bout with pneumonia would), he puts a fine point on it that, “Yeah, no. EFF this; it’s a vampire’s life for me!” Anne Rice’s development of Lestat throughout the Chronicles is a journey I visit often. ❤
Marius mention had my heartbeat spiking up. Also Sam’s love for Armand and Lestat’s general weirdness about each other ❤ What an amazing video, thank you so much!
losing my mind over sam geeking out over the show and books and loustat..i could listen to him talk about iwtv forever. so beyond excited for what’s to come! thank you for this!
Sam put it so well - the show is different, Lestat is different, but it's all to make the story work through a modern lens. The added complexity has been absolutely beautiful.
How you were able to talk to this perfect creature without sweating or choking or actually dying is, impressive. Your chemistry was great. Awesome interview 🤌🏻
Holy crap! This was even better than the original interview!! It's so lovely to watch, especially Sam getting all excited to geek out with a fellow fan over Prince Lestat era canon. It was obvious how much enjoyed this interview ❤️😍 Fantastic as always!!
you TREAT us like kings! thank you, every one of these videos has been a joy!!! I love that we got episode 8 discussion, I had a feeling it was sitting on the cutting room floor :D
Thank you for the Jam outtake videos! It's so nice to hear two book fans talking about the books and the show. Such a great video. I hope you'll be able to chat with cast/crew again for S3.
What an absolutely beautiful and thoughtful human being, I could seriously listen to him talk all day! Great job with all of these interviews, Autumn! You’re amazing!! ❤🙌❤️
This is absolutely perfect, Autumn and I can see Sam had a such a blast talking to you😍🥰👌🏼. You made it fun and seamless. Like two people just having a normal conversation. Hope you get to do more of these convos when next Season comes around. 🤞🏼 🍀. Have a very blessed 2025 🫶
I was just Watching the complete interview just now for the 20s time and I took a break thinking abt how obsessed I am and how I miss something new abt him AND SUDDENLY YOU DROPED THIS NOW 😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️
Aagghh I knew they were deleting the tears! Lol. I wish they'd left more of the tears in, cuz there were moments where I could tell they were crying their hearts out and there were zero tears on their faces. Like maybe not all of them, but like...a few more?
I loooove the conversation about Lesmand!! It's hands down my favourite dynamic from the books.. and i can't wait to see their mercurial relationship portrayed on screen next season.. And I especially loved Sam talking about Marius' hypocrisy and disregard for Armand.. Armand desperately wanted someone to save him from the cult and Marius deemed him lost, but as we can see with Lestat coming in, Armand wasn't too far gone.. All that time he was alive and out there and guiding his new prodigy while Armand rotted underground. That for me is the truly unforgivable thing Marius has done.. And i hope we'll see the Lestat-Marius-Armand dynamic play out fully.
@@AutumnBottomBrown hehe… I think it… and then I wanna see it! S3 Lestat has to cry-till-snot amid the ocean of tears in TVL, right?! So now I have The Strangest S3 desire of anyone! Go me! (And thank you for this! 🥰)
Such a great interview! It seems Autumn Brown is cousin with all these actors! lol.. unfortunately such tragic day for our Vampire Mother New Orleans... Probably there are people from New Orleans watching this. Hope they're are all safe!!!
As someone who is now reading the books and can't help but spoil everything to my friends who have only seen the show - Sam Reid I love you. Proud of you for keeping your cool Autumn at the multiple concerts reveal I would screech
I have to say Autumn, I really admire you SOOO much, so so much, for putting yourself out there, not just as smart and charismatic as Autumn the interviewer is, but also as a fan and not being afraid to embarrass yourself for the beauty of chatting with these art-makers and famous people. It really is something to look up to for me because as an introvert who cannot for the life of me talk to important people, my crush, and constantly feel inferior-not fun enough lol, its hard! You did so good. Plus Sam, as kind as he is, still feels a bit intimidating at first sight (beauty, structure, aura, and all divine things combined, god...) so you really made this your way and I loved it.
Autumn, this was the best thing I’ve seen all day. Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank youuuu. Happy New Year to you 🎉🍾 I hope you’re relaxing after a year of hard work after filming, editing, and posting these wonderful videos. ❤
He's so freaking lovely! 😍 You did awesome keeping your composure, girl! I could neverrrr... literally me the entire time just looking at him talk: 👁👄👁
OMG!!!! I am at a loss of words... all those wonderful little nuggets at the end pointing to season 3 and concertS with an S!!! Yikes! I'm so excited for this next season! I don't know how you kept your composure Autumn! I would not be able to control my excitement! Congrats on a great interview and thank you for sharing the wonderful Sam Reid with us all. ❤❤🔥❤❤🔥
I love the fact that he's anticipating seeing how they'll dig into the Marius angle of Lestat and Armand, not only further exploring Lestat and Armand by themselves, because _HONESTLY_ ssaaammmeee!!!!!!!! 😊😏🤭🤭😁💖💖💖
I don't know if this is weird but Sam's just the kind of person I want to tuck under a blanket, give a cup of hot cocoa, and brush his hair. Just seems like a truly chill guy
i've been wishing close friends "hny" with a sort of sullen caveat that there's nothing happy or new about this year but. u have changed both of those things in the span of six and twenty minutes. autumn, thank you!! sam reid, i might actually end up citing you in this conversation if able to follow up on my currently-brewing idea for an insane but beloved-baffled-briar of an (academic) paper on iwtv [im a literature major hi] and the quite honestly unprecedented watching experience (in SO many ways but this is not the place for that paper) all of you have created. AAAAAA. thank you. so so much.
I thought I was by myself in believing Lestat didn't think about saving Claudia. He looked at her as a fledgling, praising her strength. He thought she would figure it out somehow. She didn't need to be his fledgling in that moment, but his daughter. Then he would understand how Louis' mom changed drastically after Paul's death. No parent wants to outlive their child. They're fine with death if it meant their child was safe. Louis did.
I was hoping for more Sam stuff since the first outtakes mention! And you delivered us a treat, Autumn!! Thank you so much for this, it’s amazing to see some insight from the possessed prince himself on the finale as well ❤🎉
Oh god I really hope they explore Claudia’s death seen from Lestat’s point of view in season three. Out of curiosity, how long did you interview Sam? It seemed like you guys were having so much fun together!
We are the luckiest to have you Autumn ❤❤❤❤❤ It was so funny to see you try your hardest not to freak out about the S3 confirmation from Sam. Couldn't possibly be me but you're different ❤
"It takes a long time to make the show"... I hope he wasn't hinting to prepare to wait until 2026. UGH. I'm still hopeful for a late summer/fall release.
I think, unfortunately it will be impossible because according to the writers' social media they're just finishing the script. And I guess since they also do a lot of post-production for vfx and stuff, to shoot and edit it would take a while :(
@Nicki_is_here-j2g Where did you see they were finished? I only see the pic noting they had beds for writers indicating they were closing in on the deadline, but nothing indicating they'd finished. Even still, they haven't started shooting and thus, editing, and I'd wager since this is TVL there will be a LOT of vfx for Lestat's many, many tears😅 I'm still thinking 2026 but who knows, maybe they'll crunch and push it to December 31st, 2025👀
Perfect way to start 2025 🥳🤩🙌🏼 Thank yoooou!!! 💜 Every time I think about S3 I get so overwhelmed 😂 It's gonna be a struggle to wait but let the games begin!🤘🏼🎶🎸🌟
First, it was Jacob who didn't know what a pickleback is, and now Sam?!?! It must be a north american thing, which is a shame for anyone who's not in the know, cause picklebacks are my favourite shot, ngl. Thank you so much for posting this video, and hope 2025 treats you well
We are so lucky to have this little freak playing lestat
GIVING US SAM REID CONTENT TO START THE YEAR?? GOD IS A WOMAN AND HER NAME IS AUTUMN BROWN
I love Sam just staring imposingly into the camera for 15 seconds straight 😂
I shuddered😂
i legit got chills he’s so good
it triggered my fight or flight response and I almost jumped out of bed
@@SuperMathNerd314 I physically could not keep eye contact
Same! I was like "Why is he being so mean? Why wouldn't he just play along?" Then it was like "Oh he was acting! Oh he's good!"
The rocking back and forth during the Armand apologetics had me rolling. You could tell that he was holding his tongue 😂
The way I immediately jumped up when I saw the notification for this video is probably a good sign that I'm going to stay just as obsessed with iwtv in 2025
When you’re a charismatic interviewer who’s authentic and knowledgeable of the subject, you get an introvert to never stop talking 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 the power of Autumn!
This man is a spoiler geyser! He just can't contain himself!
Happy new year to you, Autumn, and to Mary... I mean Didi... Milly, wait, no... Mimi :)
@@DorPeral all hail Mimi!

Love it when blorbo from my shows uses "hegemony" in a sentence
Gosh, I can listen to him talk about lestat and the books forever ❤
Just sat up like the Undertaker, WE NEEDED THIS!!!! Here’s the second most endearing man to have ever existed.

I think my favourite thing is how Sam is allergic to giving straight answers 😂
Sam forgetting Mimi’s name twice. I’m sorry I laughed 😄

Fantastic as always!!
The dichotomy between Jacob talking about anything but IWTV and Sam talking so deep into it, but both not talking about the episode is so funny
you TREAT us like kings! thank you, every one of these videos has been a joy!!! I love that we got episode 8 discussion, I had a feeling it was sitting on the cutting room floor :D
Giggling and kicking my feet
Very literally 😅🤭
Oh Lestat you thought we wouldn’t notice you’re impersonating Sam Reid. Nice try!
Love our possessed king❤
Screaming crying in my pillow. Thank you for
Sam has such charisma, great chat, thanks for sharing 🎉
god his sheer inability to remember mimi's name is so 😭
he’s so me lmao i’m terrible at names too 😭
And the fact he insists on speaking to her by name is so funny🤣
Thank you for the Jam outtake videos! It's so nice to hear two book fans talking about the books and the show. Such a great video. I hope you'll be able to chat with cast/crew again for S3.

Ok… this was all fabulous… and yet my main takeaway was: if a vampire cried enough till snot, WOULD THE SNOT BE BLOOD?!?????!?
