This is flying over my head, but probably because I don’t know much about reddit.

There's a subreddit for just photoshopping and re-editing Daddario's nude scene in True Detective

"Ah," Ratz had said, at last, "the artiste."
The part in true detective S2 where it goes "final farewell message upload to stupid fat son at 99% - FAILED" was extremely funny

And then it cuts to his wife getting test results that say "he was the father! Your dead ex-husband was the father! gently caress you!!!"

And then an orphanage burned down and the smoke spelled out the word 'SOCIETY'

It’s no Too Old to Die Young, but it’s solid.

I never got more than one or two episodes into that because it's genuinely one of the most boring things I've ever watched. And I generally really like Refn's movies, so I'm not opposed to his style, it just did nothing for me!

It was largely a joke for the 8 other people on earth who remember that show. It’s so glacially paced that it felt like a parody of the very concept of entertainment. That said, I finished the whole thing and ultimately don’t regret having done so.

True Detective season 1 is great and once a year I usually put it on to watch a scene and then end up just watching the whole thing again. I love that Rust gets reverse-Cthulhued at the end when he gets full-on blasted with the universal chaos underlying the fabric of reality in the Yellow King's room it twists his mind from a nihilistic rear end in a top hat madman into an optimistic guy with a positive outlook on life.

I only got a couple into it as well. I wouldn't call it boring, but it doesn't really have any hooks to grab you with. Someone vomit up some kittens, dammit!

Yeah the show was at the center of McConaughey’s career renaissance and led to a series of Lincoln ads where he speaks like if Rust was in a better mental state.

I remember someone, I think an established author, doing some edgelordy post that was like "What if Rust didn't mean it? What if he was lying so that everyone else could feel better?" like he was some kind of nihilist Christ.

Yeah but the "how does an American football coach switch to soccer" is not really addressed. You'd think the whole thing would be a fish out of water show about switching sports, but mostly it's about how the super nice guy wins over the mean Brits.

All ball sport is about controlling space, it's an easily transferable skill.

And that other coach guy reads a lot and knows a lot more, I guess. He's Lasso's Thufir Hawat.
