Boozy Beginnings: Interview with the Vampire Pilot

Send us a text


Happy Wine Wednesday! February is the month of love and it's
Black History Month, so we're kicking things off with a show that
features one of my favorite, albeit toxic, relationships while
also weaving in the history of Black Americans due to an inspired
casting choice.  Pod fave Terence Johnson returns this week
to discuss the pilot episode of Interview with the Vampire. 
This show is so good and Jacob Anderson is an absolute
revelation!

We talk about the pilot's opening hook, character introductions,
and the choice of New Orleans as the setting.  We share our
thoughts on worked well in the episode, including the amazing
performance by Jacob. 

Terence gives a closing pitch on why you should keep watching
beyond the pilot.  As someone who has now watched the entire
first season after this recording, I wholeheartedly agree with
Terence.  You should definitely stick with this show!

Of course we close the conversation by getting thirsty.  To
borrow from Louis, we talk about who would have us seeking ass
before absolution and we do some thirst-inspired fan casting for
season 2.

Friendly reminder - we drink, we know things, we use adult
language, and we have a great time!

Be sure to follow and support Terence here: his website, his
Twitter account, and his IG. You can also check out my fun
discussion with him about the Looking pilot here.

And check out recent episodes on The Last of
Us,  Abbott Elementary Season 2 (so far), a reckoning
for Sleepy Hollow, The Bear, and race (or lack thereof) in House
of the Dragon.  Maddie joined me to discuss the pilot
episode of House of the Dragon and we did a Season 1 recap.
