S2 is just as kino as S1 and both form the greatest television programme ever aired. The rest don't exist, far as I am concerned.

As far as I’m concerned, it’s fine to eat a half-eaten burger found on the sidewalk, or even in a muddy stream
season 1 shot it's load early and the last 4 episodes were filler season 2 kept getting better as it went along
Also my opinion. Season one is a little better overall just cause of mcconaughey and harrelson combo was that great but I really loved the second season as well.
People who never really lived life didn't understand seasonn2.
Elaborate.
i never really lived and i understand season 2
I never really lived and I haven't watched any other season than 1 yet because I've been told they are all trash.
I watched 1 then recently watched 2 and 3. 1 is the best but I think 2 and 3 are worth watching for sure.

It's funny how that means the exact same thing
Velcoro's hair looks cool
Why did they get Ray the hick getup with the mustache and bolo tie?
True Detective S1 feels like a Zodiac/Se7en retread, however well acted. S2 has it weird quirks like Vince hamming it up and gay cops and the Lynchian dream sequences. But I remember it a lot more
Vince was definitely miscast, would love to had somebody like Michael Shannon to replace him
The hell are you talking about michael shannon is a homosexual
>I tried being someone else, we didn't get along
I didn't mind S2s characters. I thought it had awful, confusing, editing.
The big action shoot out was comical.
I tried so hard to like s2, please tell me your secret
It gets better in the second half
I'm watching season 3 for the first time, up to episode 7, it's alright. I liked s2 but it didn't feel like the same show as s1. 3 feels closer to 1 while still being it's own thing.
It also has the funniest fricking line in the entire series
>I'll have some monstrous homies frick him to death in his cell
>hear me boy?
>you will bleed black wiener
The only reason this show is good is because the first season felt like what could of been a gem Lovecraft show. Now the promise is gone why the frick would I watch the rest of it?
>could of
pls be esl
could have, frickoff. Literally add nothing to the conversation and likely add nothing to the society you parasite off of.
But I did contribute to society, now you will sound and read less like an esl or a moronic tiktok zoomer
you're welcome
"I did"
hmmmmmm
Also wtf is that sentence, barely makes any sense nice ESL writing capability.
>the greatest television programme ever aired
not even the 4th best cop show
not even the best cop show of the year it premiered
what a failure
this is not right
definitely Pizzolato was onto something
tbh he got away with not-so-subtly referencing pizzagate. I'm not sure how True Detective didn't get called a Qanon far right conspiracy show.
>Ray, when I first got started in this business they told me: "never bite the hand that feeds you." So instead, I went and bit down on the leg. And now I'm opening up my own fricking Asian themed restaurant...sushi, dumplings, beef with assorted vegetable...stuff like that...it's located at the Midtown mall...
season 2 is for people with taste
S1 (Perfect 10) > S2 (8.5/10 kino) > All the rest of the dog shit Pizza lets them make.
This is objectively correct and so self apparent, if you disagree, you are simply too moronic to be educated on it.
Is S3 that much worse than 1 and 2? Downloading now for the first time, finished S1 rewatch yesterday.
Nah, season 1 is in a league of its own.
There's a lot of masterfully done poignancy evoked from its depiction of old, forgotten, broken people, whose entire lives were dictated by tragedies caused by corrupt politicians and faceless corporate entities. And how that corruption seeped into the entire community to the point where it strangled all life and hope out of it. Rust and Marty may as well have been investigative journalists, the way they track down forgotten people to talk about other forgotten people to bring justice and their stories to light.
I've said it before but it reminds me of a few This American Life episodes about old time America.
Season 2 in comparison felt like a typical crime drama. And even though the age-old crime had many twists and turns and was as deeply rooted in the past as the Tuttle cult, it lacked scope and emotional weight, the latter because of the way the sibling subplot was revealed so brusquely without any kind of gradual buildup or unfolding.
I tried to watch episode 3 but the interview format felt obnoxious, like they were trying to manipulate the viewer into feeling for the main character with absolutely nothing to back it up with. They were trying to superficially ape the first season but it felt amateurish in comparison. I've only seen two episodes, I'll try to finish it but it's a slog.
Season 4 actually identifies what made season 1 good, the problem is instead of crafting something that feels similar, they just pig-headedly portray the themes directly as the plot, with no sense of subtlety or artistic technique. So now instead of the refineries looming in the background of every shot of season 1 as a metaphor for the corruption of Tuttle's and the grip their corruption has on the land and its people, the story now involves a literal protest against a mine for leaking chemicals in the water and poisoning people. And of course all the other superficial elements it tries to copy from season 1. As a result everyone just
feels like a one-dimension caricature and there's no texture. The characters don't feel realistic either save for one or two. Best and probably only good character is Hank Prior, because his character has depth and his fatal flaw is relatable.
Danvers on the other hand is a complete cartoon character, nothing about her feels real. Peter Prior's indigenous wife just comes across as moronic for kicking her husband out for his poor work-life balance. Rose Aguineau feels like a cartoon character as well.
They should have probably spent more time fleshing out the characters.
Navarro is ok when she's not pegging Qavvik, because he comes across as a cartoon character whose sole purpose is to be the worried housewife in his and Navarro's husband-wife dynamic. Wow, so progressive.
>episode 3
*season 3.
>This is a world where we get the world nothing is solved. we deserve.
How high were the writers?
>s2 literally has a "my wife's son" plotline
>more gay gangster drama
Fricking pass.
