I'll just jump right in, Joe. So truthfully, I did prefer season one to season two overall, but you know how every episode starts with the orchestra getting up, and it feels like a stage production, which is kind of meta, given that we're taking place in a theater for all this season. But you and I have discussed how we're going to see a musical, let's say, and it's always kind of act two, it's kind of like the downer act, the draggy one, we always prefer the fun and excitement of act one. That's how I felt about this, because we are splitting a book into two seasons and very much going through this theatrical narrative route. So this felt like act two of a show that I was watching, where I liked it. I really liked this season of television, but it wasn't as fun for me as last season television. Yeah, you're right. This is definitely not the fun, exciting thing. And in part, it's because we're coming into a relationship that's 77 years in the making. So like, Louis and Armand have been together forever at this point. And it was kind of fun to watch their relationship basically devolve over the course of the season, and we'll get into some of the big trials and tribulations and revelations that come out over the interview process. But I think the first season felt fun because it was the new relationship between Louis and Lestat. So it was like on the upswing and brand new and fresh and exciting. Yeah. And I remember when we covered the film interview with the vampire, you know, we were kind of like, Oh, God, Louis, it's just sad. It's like he's so boring, blah, blah, blah. And that is kind of what what Jacob Anderson has to do a lot this season. But I would argue he, I mean, while he is sad and mopey, like there's enough going on around him to like to bring it past it. But also where he ends up this season, I found like much more satisfying than the 90s film was. Oh, yeah. I mean, if nothing else, I think Jacob Anderson is getting to play with better material. But he, and I'm going to say also, Erica Gosian, have done a really good job of continuing to make these interviews something that is exciting and interesting to watch because I kept thinking, Oh, people must be hating this part. But I found some of the best twists that the second season delivered were the ones that were happening in the present in Dubai as we were just staring at each other over a table. I 100% agree. And it's interesting. Let's say you, you haven't read these books, right? I have not read the books. Okay. So I didn't like do like a spoiler die for myself because I want to I do want to be surprised at some of the stuff that happens to this show. But I didn't know that like in the vampire list, the second book in the series, which is after interviewing the vampire, there are portions of the book that were count interviewed with the vampire events through list stats POV and some of them are different. But, but and Rice doesn't like establish which one is correct. So you have two different versions of the same story that has never been proven. What is what? And so I liked that I feel like this season plays with that a little bit.
