CatstropheWaitress posted:Ya'll are really gun-ho to hate this. It's not as good as S1 so far, but it doesn't seem bad enough to warrant "lol this season is garbage" yet. Exodor posted:But it had bad looking posters in one scene! Obviously that makes the entire season garbage. I was just about to ask if anyone actually likes the show and wants to talk about the things they like. I figured, dang these hate watchers must have some other really good shows on right now to measure this against I need to check those out but no. They are just actively discussing this. Like why would I hate that Travis is rust's dad? His dad was barely mentioned in s1. What is there to lose? The tie in's so far are also really vague. Tuttle corp? The spiral? What deserves this much panic by episode 2?

. We'll see how far they lean into that. If they go the Fargo approach where it's mentioned but not a prerequisite for understanding what's going on, that'll be fine. Whatever. If it does become a plot point that Rust has The Shining from his dad... that will bad.
|
The_Rob posted:Because making a shared universe is not only done to death but also cheapens this tv show and pretty much confirms they didn’t have enough confidence to run with it on their own. Also it isn’t just that spiral is prominent it’s how prominent the spiral is without actually explaining why it’s interesting at all. Like I said earlier too I think the writing sucks and the lighting is awful, and every music cue has felt out of place I promise you, nobody will think less of you if don't watch the show you totally hate. It doesn't seem you have much left to enjoy.

Panzeh posted:I like the adventures of Jodie Foster and the young cop, i'm not really sure what the other cop is all about yet. His dad seems a bit useless and she seems to be mentoring him a little hard. Also something seems to really off about his dad. He seems a bit too comfortable with having case files of murdered women hidden away in his house. He seemed a bit way too mad they made it back to the station.

DaveKap posted:The one huge thing I got from episode 1 which continued in episode 2 is how insanely lived-in these sets are. I'm constantly gawking at how trashed up everyone's place is. It's extremely real in a way few shows can ever get right and I'm certain some set designer is gonna win an award for it. I really hope some stupid AI poster doesn't ruin that. The poster thing appears to only be an issue of the terminally online at this point. The average viewer doesn’t ever know about it.

CatstropheWaitress posted:Haven't watched it in forever, but isn't a theme of season one that they fail completely to arrest the bulk of the bad guys and by the time they solve the case they're all pretty much dead save the one member they do catch? The bad guys are also generational victims of a great extended family of child rapists and murderers. The ones still at large are mostly the huge extended family who have taken up work in law enforcement and state government but had also had no need to do their killing business in remote rural Louisiana any longer. Rust saying "we were never going to catch them all" is a acknowledgement that there are just so many of them and they are so ingrained in positions of authority that it was never going to be possible for a pair of ex cops anyway. The tuttles are more epstein these days and less yellow king.

This episode was interesting but the story doesn't seem to be speeding up. We get why the leading women don't like each other (I mean covering that up would cause tension, doesn't matter who did it). We look closer in why being a native in the area is loving awful. We learn almost zero. The leading women hate abusers and have a ton of experience with them. Danvers also has a thing for people being abused not speaking up for themselves, victim blame etc. The dad cop is giving me sneaky dangerous vibes while masking it as a meek quiet type. Its 100% sickness from the ice story that as a fluke exposes a covered up old murder that has nothing to do with it. Dad cop gets exposed as a murderer and a sex pest, son pulls the trigger, danvers dies in a pool of her own blood finally showing signs of being human/likeable before the dark takes her. The end. The flat circle is just people doing evil poo poo and its on a cave drawing. Turns out we were poo poo from the start!

I have only one other current tv show I am watching right now and yall doom posting the decent shows is a bummer.

Despera posted:Anyone know why Navarros sister was turned in 4 balls after cremation? They had to grind up the balls after that. I would assume its just the machine that process the ashes after being burnt. Seems inconvenient if you need to grind them up again before putting them in an urn, but cremation hardware seems very serious machinery.

Looking forward to the last episode. The ending is still so wide open and I hope its doozy. The thread should also be entertaining no matter the quality of the episode. th3t00t posted:
The shed you might personally have in your backyard and a shed in alaska are probably built much differently on average. I don't know what you could hope to store in a shed in sub zero temps that was built the same as your lawnmower shed in florida. I get the TV isn't explaining this important nuance but .

Tender Bender posted:Any building someone is going to spend any amount of time inside north of the Arctic circle is going to have some kind of heating situation even if it's just a space heater you turn on periodically. That is what I meant. I also think people who have lived in alaska all their life have these basics figured out and it doesn't need to be explained in detail to the viewer. The assumption is that wonder boy is going to survive the night sleeping in the loser shed. The entire point to the scene was "gently caress this shack sucks, why am I sitting in a lovely lawn chair instead of being at home?".

The_Rob posted:I’m baffled at how many people in this thread like this season. It feels like criminal minds or something other than True Detective. The cinematography is terrible. The lighting is both flat and way too bright. The music choices are awful. The script feels general and stupid. The mystery could potentially be interesting if they stuck to it for more than a couple episodes. There’s points where the script honestly just feels ai generated. You are still going to watch, goon in a well.

They could have very easily done the mob justice explanation in a way that wasn't.... cracked? Did the scientist killing confession need the forced girl power vibe? Did these random extra's need a story line? Did they really need lines at all? Extra's monologuing ... leads to very predictable results. This feel like it the last episode was affected by the writers strike and a producer just kind of typed out some pages.
