    Asaad’s performance and understanding of Armand made me love a character that I previously did not care for. Asaad Zaman you’re gift!

      This is EXACTLY how I feel. I never read The Vampire Armand because I didn't care for him but Assad's performance invested me in him, as a character.
      I'm on chapter 10 now of TVA and I still don't think he's amazing, but Assad has led me to an appreciation for Armand that is carrying me through (also the writing itself is spectacular)

    all of the actors are fascinating but Assad was outstanding to me this season! the subtle changes when the word maitre was uttered, the closeted crazy expressions, the vulnerable eyes...everything was just phenomenal. i hope after this we get to see him in more projects:) lovely to see him and the amazing writers talk a bit about it all

    Assad is so sweet and humble when complimented, I want to shake him and scream in a frankly deranged way about how brilliant he is in this role because I NEED him to know. I’ll be an Assad fan for life

    Assad is such a lovely introvert. His Armand is so captivating in all his volunerability and insanity. I am happy they highlighted Daniel Hart's music bc he sets the mood like no other. Pieces are so intertwined in my mind that whenever I listen just for pleasure of it takes me back to those scenes immediately.
    And what they manage to deal with challenge of seperating the book in two seasons by bringing dimention to these characters, splashing hints from other books is fantastic.
    Iwtv brought tv back.

    Assad!! , your performance cannot be Understated! You mastered this role beautifully and I am longing to see more of you. The entire cast was great, but the switch up at the end of episode eight was good so I can’t wait to see what they do with his character moving forward . I’ve never been drawn in by a character, such as Armand..Eagerly awaiting season. 3!!❤

    Season 2 was INCREDIBLE. Paris has never been my favorite part of the story and this adaptation made me obsessed. And the same with Armand, Assad’s beautiful performance endeared me so much to him as a character despite any and all atrocities in his wake. The force of talent in all departments is unmatched

    Everyone needs to watch IWTV! It is so nuanced and finely detailed; every time you watch it you notice something new :) I swear its the next Gilmore Girls but goth. Its helped me work through personal feelings in my life and now I'm reading Anne Rice, so thank you to all the cast and creatives for bringing this to life 🖤

      I'm usually strictly a Stephen King reader. I spent six years reading all of King's books back to back. When I saw the first season of Interview with the Vampire, I decided that I had to read the Vampire Chronicles books. I have read up to The Vampire Armand. I loved them! My favorites are probably The Vampire Lestat, Queen of the Damned, and Tale of the Body Thief.

    Thanks for sharing this discussion! I love this so much. It gave a little insight into creating of the show and character Armand. Assad is so lovely. He did amazing job playing Armand.
    Rolin and Mark are great on making such an amazing show adapting such rich material and putting so much sense in it.

    I want, no need, to know who Joanna would cast as Gambit; Sam Reid or Jacob Anderson? In fact it should be a 'Trial by Content' topic or a structured debate between her and Van. On that note her and Van to review the show weekly, Ringerverse or Prestige TV I don't care but I loved their review. Charles too.

    Now that I know Mark Johnson produced The Holdovers and IWTV, I cannot stop seeing parallels.
    Lestat and Mary are haunted by the loss of their child. For Mary, the Vietnam war took her son and for Lestat, the coven took his daughter.
    Louis and Angus both have strained relationships with their mothers, and they long for their old family dynamic to return. Angus feels forgotten by his mother. Louis felt rejected by his mother. Angus wants his father back in his life. Louis wants his brother back in his life.
    Claudia and Paul were relentlessy bullied for something beyond their control (her existence as a child vampire and his medical condition that makes him smell like fish. They both ultimately leave toxic work places. Claudia runs off with Madeliene and Paul drives off after taking the blame for letting Angus see his father.
    I love it here

    I wish these interviewers would do their research on how Assad’s name is pronounced. I’ve even seen him very subtly saying his name but they never catch on and correct their pronunciation.
