I finally finished S2! God this show�s great. It basically had me sold from Laszlo�s �it�s loving massive� where I had to pause and cry-laugh for a good 2-3 minutes.

I love all the cast equally, with special mention to Nadja�s off to the side reaction faces. When the stupid baby vampire Jenna asks where their clothes go when they transform into bats and Nadja is just hit by the fact she�s absolutely never thought about it. �...Huh.�

Matt Berry�s schtick can wear thin as someone else said, being in the UK, you hear his voice a lot. Guillermo doing 😬 in reaction shots never gets old. :3:

I feel like getting Vladislav all the way from NZ repeatedly to do Council stuff is weird.

Every vampire is my favorite, every scene my favorite changes.

It�s whoever is speaking right at that moment on screen.

Also, I�ve just watched the first season of Year of the Rabbit which also stars Matt Berry, and it�s fantastic. Big recommendations. Also it�s set in 1887, which is the year before Jack the Ripper did his thing, and now I want Rabbit to find Laszlo.

That might have been the best episode of the series so far. Vampires in casinos make so much sense, and then putting them on a Fear and Loathing style bender was so much fun too. It somehow felt much longer than a regular episode too, like it was seriously dense with story.

I�m wondering how the vampire/real life actor thing works now. When the Vampiric Council met for the first time, they were first name only: Tilda, Evan, Danny, etc. you had plausible deniability that they weren�t meant to be the actors.

Then this season, Nandor explicitly says it was Wesley Snipes Skyping in on a laptop. And they called him a Daywalker in the earlier ep. So the actor Wesley Snipes played the Daywalker Blade and is a Daywalker in real life? How does it all intersect?! :psyduck:

The scene in the car between Nandor and Guillermo was incredibly well acted.

Also, where is Guillermo getting money for that kind of car? Is he siphoning Vampiric Council funds? Money feels like something they don�t pay attention to, once they�ve got the fees.

I think Colin Robinson has to up his game with his roommates since they know his tricks. He should just get a job as a ride-share driver. That�s where the human misery is at.

Oh my god, I�ve definitely had energy vampires as Uber drivers. One in Berlin who took me to the airport talked the entire time in (I think) Turkish, and had a whole conversation with me even though I clearly said I was English. What he talked about, I have no clue, but it was draining because it was 5am and I just wanted to ride in peace.

I say one thing, when Guillermo told Nandor that he was the only reason Nandor was still alive, Nandor became terrifying. I don't know if it was a shift in body language or what, but Nandor seriously became intimidating.

Yes! That was an amazing shift. I�m going to have to watch again to see what he does. It�s nice to be reminded that objectively vampires should be loving terrifying.
