Antifa Turkeesian posted:That's a lot of accidentally killing innocent people for the main character of a season of True Detective. I only mentioned 1 killing caused by the main character (the uncle) and it wasn't accidental, it was on purpose but he had the wrong suspect. The accidental death of the boy has nothing to do with the main character. Clearly somewhere in timeline 1 or 2, main detective hosed up, and he also seems to have stuff in his past that's hidden/not recorded in police reports, so I don't think this is that unbelievable. But yeah it's a far fetched theory, they haven't given us enough info yet IMO to come up with an accurate theory. 1st season was the same really, killer was only obvious after they got that painter evidence near the end of the season. Did they even reveal anything in the 2nd season? Some guy with a bird mask killed someone, and mexicans killed Vince Vaughan? What a poo poo-show, literally. Basebf555 posted:I don't buy that the dad was doing anything wrong, maybe it's just great casting and I want to trust Scott McNairy, but I'm just not getting that feeling that we're gonna get a reveal that he's an abuser. It is a good point, he doesn't come across as an abuser, especially given his mental health/alcoholic rehabilitation using the partner's help. But that begs the question if uncle was abuser, and murdered, why are they revisiting the case? Maybe he was abuser but not murderer? I read some theories that the wife did it, but that sounds dumb to me. But maybe she uncovered evidence that made main detective guy do some under the table investigation/vigilante justice in 1990. denzelcurrypower fucked around with this message at 03:33 on Jan 31, 2019 |

CornHolio posted:I kind of wonder if it isn't a whole bunch of unrelated crimes that happened at the same time. The kids got split up, she got kidnapped, he got murdered, the uncle is a pedo and the dad knew. Could be. I remember reading about a case where a girl disappeared, later that day her brother went out looking for her on his bike and he also disappeared. Either the person responsible is insanely brazen or it's a hell of a coincidence.

My take: The mystery is never solved as to what happened that day, this season is all about persecution of ppl who didn't do the crime, yet are blamed for it.

For the age that Julie should be in 2015, Elisa is far more likely her daughter.

bloom posted:Losing an eye doesn't really seem like a typical industrial injury. I rewatched the 1980 parts of the episode, and at one point Hoyt says: "How 'bout workplace injuries going back 40 years? Anybody lost an eye, black male, Washington and surrounding counties. Any priors from that list of employees at the food plant where the mother worked? Cross-reference with workplace injuries." I was a little off on who mentioned looking for the possibility of more than one black man with a cloudy eye, but it was in there.

If we assume for a second that this is gonna end up being a complete rehash of Season 1(I'm not convinced of that yet, but for the sake of discussion), have there been any fly-by characters that seem like they could be a repeat of what they did with Childress in Season 1? Like a momentary encounter that shows us the killer but comes and goes so quickly that it would be easy to miss? I can't think of any off the top of my head but it would probably require rewatching each episode. I certainly didn't pick out random dude on a lawnmower as the killer when I first saw the episode in Season 1(although I know some people did).

Mike N Eich posted:It's definitely not completely incompetent like season 2 but it feels....boring? You can't get 4 episodes into a season and have basically nothing happen. Mahershala Ali is acting his pants off but there just isn't much going on. this is why i keep being a big baby about shows not dropping seasons all at once. better call saul is the best show on tv but it works WAY better when you can binge it. it's too slow otherwise. it's not like these are sitcoms where each episode is self contained.

For all the somewhat understandable scepticism about the shoot out people had last week, I think they'll be quite happy with what we got.

Sgt. Politeness posted:My fiance is convinced that Detective West and Mr Purcell are gonna(already did) hook up. In the 1990 scene where West checks in on him and he mentions he’s been sober for 5 years it definitely felt like there was a lot of history, warmth, and respect between the two men, but imo if it was revealed that they were lovers that would kind of sour it for me. It seems to me that it’s increasingly rare to see a mutual bond of friendship unfold in fiction without an underlying note of “Oh they tryna gently caress”. Personally I really like the characterization of West that he just took pity on this man and felt compelled to try to help him un-gently caress his life, not out of an attraction or anything, but simply as an act of good will and trying to be genuinely supportive and helpful to this man when he needs it the most. But like another said up thread, I wouldn’t necessarily be surprised if it happened because there was definitely a bond of some sort between those two in 1990. E: should probably mention that I have not seen the latest episode at this point. timp fucked around with this message at 19:06 on Feb 1, 2019 |

It seems to me that it’s increasingly rare to see a mutual bond of friendship unfold in fiction without an underlying note of “Oh they tryna gently caress”. The 80s version is very insistent on his own heterosexuality and how much he desires sex with a woman and how men who do not desire that are weird and untrustworthy. But it would be nice if 1990 Dorf was just a good dude who matured and helps others.

Man this teasing every episode of what Hays and West did in 1990 is killing me Also when they played the phone call tape I immediately assumed they were setting up a twist where she was actually talking about the Attorney General, not Scoot
