Episode 3 - Cover the Mirrors

Mayfair Witches S02 E03 AMC Networks

From IMDb: Rowan desperately partners with Cortland to try to stop Lasher; Moira assists Sip in capturing him.

Whew!  Now that Alicia and Gifford have both died immediately after encountering Lasher in the flesh, and the Mayfair victims have increased in number, Rowan has realized the number will increase unless she stops Lasher.  While the first two episodes did indeed feel closer to the novels, the third episode takes us more into the onscreen version.  With a surprise or two.

Episode 2 - Ten of Swords

Mayfair Witches S02 E02 AMC Networks

From IMDb: Rowan must find Lasher before more people are hurt; Sip finds an ally in an angry Mayfair cousin.

I watched the entire episode thinking the actress playing Gifford was one I recognized from...somewhere...but didn't realize it was Thora Birch until I went to look for some meaningful images from the episode.  Wow.  She made a good Gifford Mayfair!

Season 2 Premieres

From IMDb: Rowan Mayfair is determined to understand what Lasher has become; Sip is hell-bent on capturing him.

After a two-year wait, Season 2 of Anne Rice's Mayfair Witches premiered last night on AMC.  I only began to discuss my thoughts on episodes during Season 2 of Interview With the Vampire, but I thought I'd do the same here.  Especially since this site specifically discusses the Mayfair Witches.

As I watched Louis make his way out of the gravel, the coffin and the morgue, I thought this is probably the moment his strongest emotions propelled him forward with what was to come. It did take me a moment to realize the ghost of one of Louis' post-exhumation victims was actually helping him prepare.

So, this is vampire justice...and the Court of Public Opinion is allowed a vote because they think it's a show being put on? I think? Well, except for the soldier with the big mouth whom Lestat confronts. Despite having to amend the charge of murder to attempted murder since the victim himself is present to give testimony, that only covers Louis and Claudia.

Armand had never made a vampire himself in the nearly 500 years he's been one? I think my eyes would have gotten big with disbelief, too, had I been in Daniel's place. Something interesting and curious about both Armand and Claudia just occurred to me for the first time...ever.

This departure from Paris in the 1940s to San Francisco in 1973 goes over the point in the original interview when Daniel wanted to Louis to turn him, but with one detail omitted: Claudia. What happened to Claudia? Why wasn't she present in 1973? Louis made some vague statements regarding Claudia's having left at some point, that their paths had separated, not to be rejoined again.
