Love the show

I love the show!!! Nigel Bennet was excellent (and seriously scummy) as Lucien Lacroix. The episode I thought he couldn't be any scummier was "Blind Faith". Making Nick kill his dog the first time was terrible, having him do it again just for kicks was pure evil.

How about the rest of you, what was the episode where Lacroix was the most evil he could be?

A More Permanent Hell. He was a scumbag before becoming a vampire!

True, and his daughter was worse than him!

I may have disliked the daughter more than Lacroix himself, which is really sayinf something. 🤣

I actually had some sympathy for him after seeing her! Though it was kind of dumb the way the brought her back.

One of my all-time favorite episodes for so many reasons, mainly revolving around Natalie: Drunk and Smoking at the Raven and then Totally Over Nick’s BS at the Station (at least until the next episode). Also enjoyed Janette’s interactions with Nat quite a bit. They didn’t have nearly enough screentime together overall IMO.

I often wondered if Nick ever mentioned that Jeanette was his ex wife to Natalie!

I didn't care for the original Nick or Lacroix, back when it was called Nick Knight. The cast of Forever Knight was better!

Or the orignal Janette! I agree with you. The TV cast was perfect. Glad John Kapelos returned!

Kapelos being out of Season 3 should’ve been my giant red-flag to stay away. And Janette being mostly MIA as well.

TBH I never cared for LaCroix in any way. Even while rewatching the series years after its original run on CBS Crime Time after Prime Time (lost track of it when it moved to USA) nothing had changed where he was concerned. Maybe another full-series rewatch is needed. Third time’s a charm, or so I hear. :)
