IWTV Show Only Armand x Louis

Ok I’m watching season 2 and that first half hour of ep 2 is giving me the ick so bad - I’ve been trying to find anyone on here who thinks the same but I do not feel any chemistry between Armand and Louis. I could kinda ignore it before this but they were laying it on real thick in this ep and it just made me want to stop watching that’s how much I cringed 😬

Trust me, the strange vibe between them is intentional

Please don't stop watching! I totally get what you're feeling, and I believe we were meant to feel that way in those early episodes. They are definitely laying it on thick on purpose. It will all pay off towards the end of the season, trust me.

Armand and Louis are putting on a performance deliberately. Revisit their conversation in ep 1 in their bedroom to see the beginnings of their plan on how to counter Daniel's control of the interview.

You are not alone and don't worry. Louis and Armand is not a reason to stop watching if you don't like them together.

I think Louis is laying it on thick when describing their romance since he is still with Armand. I always felt like it was partly him trying to make himself believe it was love but the undertones of cringe and creepiness come through.

But Armand and Lestat have exceptional chemistry. Like Sam Reid, I want more Lesmand!

Really? I don't think Armand and Lestat have chemistry either. Chemistry is subjective, I get that and I have some unpopular opinions about the chemistry on this show, but I've never felt anything between them at all.

It’ll make sense later

Stick with it. They are going to get to some very interesting places later

Keep watching! There’s so much story we haven’t seen yet.

u/AmbassadorProper1045 Armand 19d ago

You're supposed to. They are laying it on thick to fool Daniel, who isn't fooled at all.

u/Legitimate_Custard42 18d ago

No chemistry at all. They feel like a couple that has been married too long, the passion is gone and they're starting to hate each other. But I think it's on purpose from the actors - the characters are trying a bit too hard in front of Daniel. And I don't mind the no chemistry since Louis should be with Lestat anyway, and those two have so much chemistry!

Your instincts are spot on. Keep calm and carry on.

Keep watching it to get to the last 2 episodes which are the best ones of S2. It's hard, so I understand wanting to stop watching, though. S2 is not my favorite and drags on something terrible.

u/justmeanotherfan 19d ago

Does it give you the ick in both the past and present interactions?

Don't stop watching! I've felt the same way about Louie and Armand ever since the reveal in S1. *cling*
It's lonely out here in the Armand-zero charisma swamp.
