They are all weak. So I wondered, what exactly were they eating? How long was Nandor there with no human blood to nourish him? 1 Link to comment
possibilities October 18, 2021 Share October 18, 2021 They did all that cooking at the commune. And then they threw it all out. I did find that funny. 2 2 Link to comment

Ok so this has been bugging me - in the show, they are clearly invisible in mirrors, but in the opening credits they are visible in photos. Shoot, in the Atlantic City episode, Nadja even has a picture of herself in the sixties with the Rat Pack. Are we supposed to just hand wave this? Nandor with the feathered hair and short shorts was everything. Colin Robinson is killing it this season. He is a deeply weird person and I love it. Do energy vampires have some obsession with poop? Because it sure seems that way - he was waaaay too into sorting through Guillermo's crap at the beginning of the season, then his comment to the Siren about her not being the first woman to shit on his shoes, and then this week all the farting/scent marking....... I also loved the call back to the "creepy" paper when they were decorating. I'm sad this season is almost over....... 2 Link to comment

MisterGlass October 19, 2021 Share October 19, 2021 In the original movie, the ancient vampire Petyr drinks chicken blood. It could be that they have an animal substitute, or that Jan provided some "humanely" acquired human blood. They probably put it in pitchers labeled "tomato juice." 5 1 Link to comment

Does Jan have to appear before the Vampiric Council for murdering all of those vampires?? They did commit suicide. Of course, it was at her prompting. Although I suspect the bigger issue is she did not pay her dues for more than 100 years. I wonder if she ensnared all of the vampires that were sent to collect the dues.

Nandor looked so great. Make him blond and I dated him back in the day. I think the poop obsession is another way for Colin to annoy people. Can you imagine being stuck in a conversation where he goes on and on about poop? 3 2 Link to comment
Dewey Decimate October 20, 2021 Share October 20, 2021 Oh man, I'm so disappointed to see that the cult leader's name is Jan and not Jen!! I was vicariously enjoying hot Nandor getting it on with someone who shares my name, and now I'm crestfallen. During the talking head scenes of Nandor's armchair ennui I also noticed for the first time that Kayvan Novak has really beautiful hands. No, I'm not a stalker. I swear. Erm,... BAT! 1 11 1 Link to comment

I thought all along it was maybe Malcolm McDowell. Matt has a great voice. My first exposure to Matt Berry was in the IT Crowd, and I was continually blown away by his voice in that show. He plays a histrionic over the top character there too - I just adore him! 4 Link to comment
Cherpumple October 23, 2021 Share October 23, 2021 Speaking of the IT Crowd, Kayvon absolutely got his aerobic dance moves from Matt Berry's character on that show. I thought of this scene immediately when Nandor's pelvic thrusting began: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XKdBSWJJMhI 3 3 Link to comment

Digital technology - why didn't I think of that??? Of course, it doesn't explain the "old" photos that we see in the intro every week since they were taken before digital technology, but I'm just going to start humming the hamster dance to take the place of any rational thoughts in my brain...... 1 Link to comment

That's so true! Now that I'm thinking about how cameras functioned historically, what is the difference between a mirror and a reflective plate used in photography? Not a whole heck of alot. 1 Link to comment
