In light of a lot of recent discourse & discord & argument I'm seeing everywhere the past few days regarding the bias among some fans against Lestat being acknowledged as a victim in any way, the timing of this incredibly insightful analysis popping up in my YouTube feed felt a bit like kismet. As a caveat the creator had only watched through Episode 6 at the time of posting this & you don't necessarily have to agree with every single aspect of her video, but IMO it's still a worthwhile watch — regardless of whether you love or loathe him — as she makes some very salient points about some of the fandom's resistance both to recognizing or acknowledging what was portrayed at the end of Episode 3 and resistance to balanced discussion about Lestat as a nuanced multifaceted character rather than being either a one note villain or an absolved victim (whichever side of the spectrum fans might go ten toes down on).

[My apologies to the Mods if I tagged this incorrectly; if so please let me know what it should be tagged as instead & I will either attempt to edit the tag or repost with it tagged appropriately.]

Can always count on Dee & their actor to brighten my weekend 😂
