I think I speak for everyone in this fandom when I say that we need Black writers back in the writer’s room.

The Black writers for seasons 1-2 of IWTV were Ben Philippe, David B Harris, and A. Zell Williams.

These are the men responsible for providing substance and depth to the Black characters in the first two seasons, mainly Louis and Claudia. They knew how to tackle struggle, injustices, history, rage, pain, and the ugly truth of American and European Black history. They didn’t pull punches with the hard stuff and they knew how to work with the soft stuff.

Season 3 tried to create edgy content and humor without these men and absolutely failed at it in every way possible. And they have failed both Louis and Claudia.

The Black jokes about Louis being “Louisiana Fried Chicken”, Louis continuing to be the pimp and needing his White savior that is Lestat, Claudia’s entire monologue about Louis being a literal slave to Lestat in that old Louisiana accent. And not to mention the complete erasure of Lemuel after only a couple episodes.

It’s not working.

If there’s gonna be Black actors on screen, there needs to be Black writers in the writer’s room.

I still can’t believe that Louis almost ate his nephew and then was fake crying about how he’s never gonna have kids of his own even though prior to meeting Lestat he’d resigned himself to being Paul’s keeper for the rest of his life and couldn’t even manage to get a beard and then Lestat said you will be filled with all the life you can hold then gave Louis a baby the very next episode and when that baby was still a baby she shared coffin with Louis and then when they’re forced to start again in Eastern Europe we’re shown them sharing a makeshift burial place again and then the show ends with Louis looking at a painting of a figure wrapped around a smaller figure and it’s called Mother and Child which is not only in the extremely catholic tradition of Mary and Jesus but also commissioned specifically for the show and specifically for Louis. after two seasons of him trying to come to peace with his daughter’s death for 70 years. like all these things happened. I’m not interpreting or analyzing anything guys there’s no subtlety or room for interpretation these are literally just scenes that happened. and I’m supposed to think other tv shows should exist? and the entire time they’re both gay Black vampires. are you kidding me
