Ive avoided it as I heard they deviate massively from the source material.Sounds better then what they did with From Dusk till Dawn. They stayed faithful to the source material, at least for the first season I watched. It felt like watching a low budget version of the movie with hours of filler.
Ewwww you're not telling the truth are you. I was thinking about skimming this show as someone who saw the movieIt's pretty graphic compared to the movie. Might keep watching. The first episode was free on Amazon prime video.

I heard it was essentially a sequel. The reporter fact checks some claims from the original interview and is coming back with follow up questions about things that didnt line up. Havent seen it but I thought it was a novel way to make changes.It's an informal sequel to the book and has some simularities the movie doesn't besides the time shift.
I want to watch this eventually. I need to get into vampire media tbh. I actually haven't seen much bc vamps always grossed me out as a kid.The Vampire Diaries is really good.

The CW thing? >_>Yes, but if thats too girly for then try The Originals.
The book already has many sequels.I said informal. The book's interview takes place around 1973, not far from the book's release. Same is true for the earlier interview between Louis and Daniel in the series.

Im familiar with the source material, at least as far as Prince Lestat.Well, I'd say Interview is about Louis' journey and existential crisis. The time period it starts in isn't the most important thing regarding that. The 94 movie lacked the relationship factor between Louis and Lestat which This version amps up even more.
But I heard that its set in a different period, which is a change I cant approve of as any I feel that the setting and time period is a key component of the novel. Is that not true?
I agree that its about his journey primarily, and while the setting is not essential to the plot, Id say that it could affect the flavour, especially as if this one was popular it could then have a knock on effect for other works.Changing the flavor is the intention. I admit, it put me off a bit as first also, but I've grown to like it. Lestat was born the same time as book Lestat and he mentioned Those who Must be Kept. There's also a promotional image of him in season 2 wearing earlier clothing so we will likely see more book faithful time.

Yes, but if thats too girly for then try The Originals.Do not watch the Originals before watching the Vampire Diaries.

Don't forget Louis and Armand traveled together in the 20th century in the book.

nah, she was an executive producer, but so is her son, who she collaborated with multiple times.
iirc, he also wrote the pilot for the show, so it's more than likely they signed off on whatever changes happened, since he would have come out about how they went against his mom's/his vision otherwise.
plus the casting happened before she died.
I don't disagree that it wasn't a deviation; I was just saying that it was a deviation that she likely approved of.
