Agent Starling really must have gotten railroaded badly to get kicked out of the agency and went into policing in Alaska for letting Hannibal Lecter go so many times.

something i like about the new season from the start. having a TD season set where it's always night time is wonderful.

Lampsacus posted:eh maybe. i also just enjoy that there is a critical reappraisal of s2 as good its kind of funny. Colin Farrell as an intensely divorced man is funny. vince as a terrible mob boss is rad. i like how rachel mcadams vapes and does cool knife attacks. hell yeah!

The zombie doing the interpretive dance was kinda funny but overall I liked that episode

Season 2 is worth watching just to see Colin Farrell deal with his fat ginger failson who wants to watch Friends. Taylor Kitsch's character was lame though, just be gay and have fun! Season 3 had good performances but the central mystery was pretty dull. Season 4 is promising so far, likeable characters and the Thing references aplenty.

Things I liked: [soiler] Intro music by Sam Smith Alcoholic stripper Ferris Bueller Didn't like: Chromatic distortion filter giving everything the shimmering rainbow effect Jodie Foster shower scene was gratuitous [/spoiler]

Torquemada posted:If season one didn't exist, two and three would be pretty well regarded, I assume four will be in the same ballpark. It's unlikely to be atrocious bullshit. Yeah I'm not down with this historical revisionism. It's writer admitted it sucked. Even HBO's executives admitted a few months after it came out that True Detective season 2 was bad. It's ok to like season 2 but that doesn't mean it's quality wasn't low. So far that was a good episode. Though I wish it had 8 episodes if we're gonna do a slow burn through characters backstories. I'm enjoying that vague supernatural from season 1 is back.

Season 2 just really failed to hit the hardboiled/pulpy dime detective thing it was going for. I can appreciate the effort, but it just didn't work very well.

Does Season 2 open with Rachel McAdams's character just having had anal sex? One of the first lines spoken after she appears is the guy she was loving saying "most girls aren't into that kind of thing" or something like that. Anyway, strong opener.

i could write a better season of true detective than this and guess what? I'M GONNA It takes place at the Jersey Shore. The detectives are Danny Devito and this hot girl i met at drug camp who said she's an actress. The theme song is TBD!!!!

I really enjoyed this, I like the mystery and am enjoying trying to figure it out in my head. First thought is that there is a Cyclonopedia kind of thing going on where mining or climate change unleashed an ancient deity

season 1 being good doesnt make season 2 good if season 1 didnt exist season 2 was honestly worse than not watching TV, which is why i watched the first few episodes of that season then stopped

How old was that kid that is young enough he could only babble but old enough he could also draw a coherent picture of a human figure and is also young enough that you can get a handjob from your girlfriend in front of him and not traumatize anyone?

So Season 4 is the current one? I could of swore the commercials said "Now Streaming SEASON 5!!! ONLY ON MAX OR HBO+ OR WHATEVER" If so, I wanna watch. I like Jodie Foster, and I like the show mostly. I don't think I've seen 3, what was the theme in that one? 2 did have that one continuous take shootout, that was pretty cool. And Collin Farrel beating the poo poo out of the bully's dad, or something. Season 1 was loving awesome.
