Shoresy: Get'em Focused (2023)
Never missed a beat!
I was worried that with the long duration between season 1 and 2, that maybe some of the magic would have been lost. I am so happy to say it's just the next episode in my most favorite series of the last 2 years.
In classic Jared Keeso, and Jacob Tierney fashion, there is some some back story left not shown coming into a new season, but as always, the right amount of information and allusion is given in the story telling of the episode, bringing you right into where you want to be, with our team captain, Shoresy, Coach Sanguinet, their veteren presence alums; Dolo, Hitch, Goody and JJ. Guiding lights, Nat, Miig and Ziig, and our (full) favorite team, the Sudbury Blueberry Bulldogs. (Special shout out to the Jims as well, they are such beauties!)
Welcome back Shoresy and crew, I missed you all.
Interview with the Vampire (2022)
A huge swing, not bad, but could have been more (updated review after watching the season)
I have decided to update my initial review, and up increase my rating some, after having finished the first season (Initial angry review still listed below)
It comes down to trying to understand a little more what the writers have tried to do with this series. It's an attempt to tell the story a second time. They really broke away from the proper time line, back-stories, and relationships of the primary character, and this I cannot move past, as much as I try.
HOWEVER: I feel that anyone that has not read the book(s), loves anything vampires, and would like to dip into the some of the basic fundamentals of The Vampire Chronicles, will most likely, thoroughly enjoy this series. Once I decided to ignore the missing, finer points of the original telling of the story, it was entertaining, and i authentically look forward to the next season, to see how the story is re-told in this new lens.
***Original, angry fan review from October 4, 2022***
As others have mentioned, this is a show called "Interview with the Vampire", but it's not Anne Rice's.
Amazing production, paired with phenomenal actors. The story is absolute garbage, nowhere near the book of the same name.
Fans have waited for years for someone to make a series out of the books. This is not the way. Hopefully it gets cancelled early on before completely downing the name, and someone comes and does it right. A massive, multi year series, using the original material is 100% doable. I can't fathom why they felt the need to re-write Anne's story, when the original story was so amazing and detailed.
So saddened and disappointed that I had to come here and rate & review in this negative light.
Shoresy: Veteran Presence (2022)
Wish I could give 11 stars
Immediately loved the first episode and knew it was gonna be a great show. Second episode in and I can't give enough praise, so fricken good. In classic Keeso story building, episode ended, giving me goosebumps, with the ever impressive soundtrack. Perfect in every scene , and leaving me wanting to press "watch next episode". Alas, have to wait for next week. Can't wait!
Shoresy: Never Lose Again (2022)
Knew it would be good, but it's so much better
Waited a long time to see this, and wow, it was so worth the wait. Was hoping for something to fill in the time between Letterkenny, and Jared crushed it. Now I'm gonna always be waiting for the next season of both shows. Great first episode, I know I'll be hooked. Bravo!
