It's crazy how he got shafted basically every step of the way. Deadwood was kino but got cancelled. Too Old to Die Young was sort of kino but it was also ruined by the fact that Refn is autistic and just keep shooting until he ran out of money. You would think that True Detective would finally give him a chance to shine, but it ended up being the shittiest season ever.
I loved the first 3 seasons and didn't even bother watching the first episode. This season is apparently as bad as I knew it would be when I saw the first trailer.
The only emotionally grounded thing that happened in this episode was Mike Tyson dropping her druggie sister off at the clinic. It's the only thing a writer actually seemed to have written from an honest place. The rest of it was untethered speculation about how a human being would act if you removed all agency and self awareness from all the principal cast. It's utter fanciful trash. Nobody lived any of these life experiences except for the witchy insane women. The rest of the characters are not even sketches. They were never realized people in the story
leaks say it's some ultrasound device that's used for drilling or scanning the ice or something, supposedly it fricks you up without proper hearing protection. it's also why the deer in the beginning lost their minds or why the scientist's ear drums were all ruptured. as to why only navarro got some, i don't know. maye there some other dude or b***h sneaking around the compound activating the device to frick up pursuers or something.
but honestly it could all be bullshit, considering how fricking stupid this lopez b***h of a director is
Danvers White noise headphones will play a part when the sound machine is cranked to 10 in the finale. Also im pretty sure it's infrasounds not ultrasounds
There is no connection. This Season was made as it's own thing before they slapped the True Detective name on it. That's why Nic Pizza is trashing season 4.

but they keep shilling this bullshit story that Issa Lopez won the gig by pitching a female cold True Detective season to juxtapose the male sweaty first season. That it was a True Detective season from day 1.
Lol, that will be so pathetic if it's the reveal... these guys aren't redneck miners, they're international scientists with PhDs and shit, is Lopez really gonna them gang-rape an indigenous girl like it's the liberal fantasy version of the Brett Kavanaugh allegations?
>All the scientists have guilt over raping Annie >Cleaning ladies leave annies tattoo everywhere, cut off the lights and blast everyone with infrasounds to drive them crazy >"That girl we killed has come back to life to punish us!" Just doesn't have the same spooky ring as "she's awake! She came for us in the dark!"
Supposedly almost all and any things concerning the supernatural will not be elaborated on and are just there for style with no substance to show for, yes it's that moronic.
One thing that will be explained is the spiral scribbles being some sort of really old symbol for the good and natural which got corrupted by the evil in the world or something.

>WHOSE b***h IS THIS >Viscant staredown
haven't seen that in a while
my theory is that Rust is the Blue King and he came back to Alaska because Time is a Flat Circle. he discovered a new entrance to Carcosa at the Nook and needed to sacrifice the scientists for their white devil energy.
From the snowy tundra
Her looming shadow grows
Hidden in the snow fall
Of their moistened winter coats
She mined their fine ore slowly
But men wanted their fun
And when they touched her skin
Inuit fingers ran with blood
so one Cinemaphile guy theorized that Jodie Foster is the one catfishing the skinny israelite actor cop guy with the russian bride, saying all the beeps from his texts are Tinder notifications.
>“The NGO that funds the station, if you follow the taxes you can trace it back to a shell company called NC Global Strategies, which in turn belongs to Tuttle United.”
it's pretty obvious everyone is wrong about his girlfriend and she really is showing up at some point to wrap up the only happy thread. everything from her asking for money, to his pout to the bunny to the champagne to the fricking flower petals is melodramatic misdirection
To come here and laugh at it? I eagerly sit down with the wife and we laugh at it. White Lotus is infinitely better than TD Season 4, and it gets her all horny
the music director is such a basic b***h. probably thought mazzy star kinda sounded like the season 2 chick "this is my least favorite life" in the bar. mazzy star is great but it was just a bad selection sounded out of place.
Right? He demands your attention, dominates every scene he's in without saying a word. Dude is a natural, they struck gold and they fricked up bigtime not making him a main character.
>Pretendian
Kali Reis and her mother are definitely pretendians
>The human geneticist Bryan Sykes (1947–2020) wrote, "On the matrilineal side, all of the mDNA lineages are of either European or African origin, while the patrilineal Y chromosomes show a range of Native American, European, and African lineages plus one surprise from New Guinea." He continued that "genealogical reconstruction showed that the single Native American Y chromosome was most likely introduced into the tribe by a Cherokee incomer several generations back." He wrote further: "In contrast, the complete absence of Native American mDNA among the Seaconke Wampanoag came as a great surprise to me, given the usual direction of intermarriage between African and European American incomers and Native American women."
Why does Foster look deathly ill in every scene? It can't be just her age; she's white as a sheet in a way that looks really unnatural. Is this a frickup from the makeup department or the lighting or what?
That's what I was talking about with my wife. Like what the frick is the point of adding a whole other mystery when it doesn't even seem like it's going anywhere. Like I said in my previous post, I don't mind slow burn shit and character development, but we only have six episodes and they drug their feet through four of them trying to flesh out characters I don't give a frick about. These scenes are totally pointless in a show that's only six episodes long.
>yfw you find out she's the killer and that's why the revisted a totally pointless character and she mentions some vague backstory and is acting odd by making a huge meal, almost as if in celebration of what she set out to accomplish, and also as a last meal because she knows she's about to be caught
Like when she showed back up and the old lady was dressed up having Christmas dinner, and then mentioned she used to be someone else but changed her name, I figured her to be some sort of eco terrorist or something. She set out to do whatever it is she set out to do, and now she's just waiting for the noose to tighten, but doesn't really care all that much because she already won.
Basically this picture is what I thought of during that scene.
That's who I thought it was, but she lived in a little shack, not a fancy house. Unless that place in the earlier episode was her wolf-butchering shack (who butchers wolves, anyway? Is that a thing?).
Also she wasn't Rust's mom, she just fricked his dad on the side.
If this was a stand alone show, it wouldn't be that bad. It gives off vibes of a slow burn police procedural show, which I don't mind at all. However, we're four episodes in, and it feels like they've just been dancing around the case. Like I said, I don't mind a slow burn show, but there's only six episodes total. I don't mind character development, I don't mind little side stories, I don't mind drama...but they're trying to pack this all into six episodes with a massive mystery that they've barely talked about. I don't really feel like "filler episodes" is the best choice of words, but I kind of am interested in the characters, but I'm more interested in the case, especially since I know the show is almost over and we've barely even talked done any actual detective work.
If they wanted to do a slow burn detective show with paranormal teasers, I feel like it should have been more episodes...possibly multiple seasons. It just feels like everything is going to be rushed in the last five minutes of the 5th episode with a huge cliff hanger, and then the first half of the 6th episode everything will be solved.
I don't think we'll be talking about this show a month from now regardless. It has the pacing of Better Call Saul, but without the actual number of episodes to pull it off. The entire show feels like they took several X-Files pre-opening credits scenes and mashed them together, and then tried to turn it into a slow burn police procedural. I can't find the right words to explain it, but it just feels like the trajectory of the show is like they planned on making it 18 episodes and wrote it like that, but at the last minute through filming they said "oh hey, it's actually going to be six episodes now". You have all of these characters fleshed out and this entire mystery is supposed to actually get solved in the last two episodes with no actual detective work having been done in the first four?
God this show is just boring. other than the setting, there's nothing interesting about this. all the supernatural elements feel so out of place for this show. i guess it's the characters being schizo, but even then not really >muh curse
frick you
This show goes absolutely nowhere.
It feels so much like foreign shit I've turned on accidentally it's crazy. The Hispanic b***h can't help but write like a shitty wetback soap opera, they really have no skill for creative writing whatsoever if this is the pinnacle of their ability. They gave a Hispanic one of the biggest HBO hits of all time to make a season of and it's so fricking bad.
I don't think she wrote it, I think she fed ideas into AI and edited it. The Netflix Resident Evil show felt the same way, went around in circles and by the end of the show, arrived nowhere.
we know they used AI for the metal concert poster, and her explanation why smells like bullshit. maybe its a hint, inside joke, that they used AI to help write the story. it would explain some of the worst dialogue scenes.
>they used AI to help write the story. it would explain some of the worst dialogue scenes
This makes a lot of sense and would explain why the creator felt a need to even address the AI poster at all.

>and her explanation why smells like bullshit
Yeah she doesn't like ai so she used ai?
>Yeah she doesn't like ai so she used ai?
methinks she doth protest too much
What if this was a test case for AI writing by the industry heavies? This was written right before the writers' strike?
To be fair, some people go by their last names either because they prefer it or simply because everyone always calls them by their last name. My ex wife was always called by her last name even after we married and she took my name. Not even I used her first name.
I rewatched Season 2 before this one started, and it's super underrated. The music is good, the characters are good, and you can't say that about this season.
Is Jodi Foster trolling the cop dad by pretending to be the Russian mail order bride? She's always on her phone ostensibly playing Fantasy Football or using Tinder.
i believe the current flavor of the week in that is Rose being the troller. something in this last episode made me believe it wasnt Danvers but i honestly cant remember even a day ago.
yeah thats a theory one of our kinomeisters came up with a few threads back. i think he's right
i believe the current flavor of the week in that is Rose being the troller. something in this last episode made me believe it wasnt Danvers but i honestly cant remember even a day ago.
i can't even remember which character is Rose lol its all such slop
The problems with this show go way beyond the gender of the two main characters. The pacing is shit and the story is full of irrelevant fluff nobody cares about. We are 4 episodes in and 2 of them have been filler episodes. There's only 2 more episodes to go and they have hardly even worked on the case at all yet.
And as I was saying, I wouldn't mind a slower pace. But it's only a six episode season lol. I want to see some fricking detective work. The only thing that would even justify any of this is if Navarro is the killer, which seems to be the current theory I keep seeing. Some shit about her having a split personality.
Before I even read that theory, after I finished watching the 4th episode, I was thinking about the murder suicide that they both responded to. It seems that both female police officers seem to have problems with hallucinations, and it's implied that it wasn't actually a murder suicide, but one of the officers killed that man and they covered it up. Kind of like in Season 1 when Marty blew that dude's head off and Rust covered it up by shooting the AK out in the woods. However...you never really hear Danvers and Navarro talking about it that much. Is it possible that it was actually a murder suicide and Danvers imagined him being alive, whistling that Twist and Shout song? And from Navarro's point of view she was fixated on that ghost shit she saw? Two different perspectives on a crime scene, both false.
I don't know, maybe it's a dumb idea, I just found it weird that the guy was whistling the twist and shout song, and both officers seem to share hallucinations.
Probably. My wife likes to watch those episode breakdown shows and the one she watched actually pissed me off a little bit. The guy gave the most pretentious explanation of every stupid little fricking scene. As if the show was packed with powerful symbolism. It was shit like:
>The orange, a spherical and vibrant fruit, represents the feminine essence of life and creativity. By rolling it on the ground, one is enacting a ritual of defiance against the patriarchal forces that seek to suppress and exploit the female energy. The ground, a cold and barren surface, symbolizes the harsh and oppressive conditions that the eskimo women face in their daily lives. They must endure the extreme cold, the scarcity of resources, and the violence of their male counterparts. The act of rolling the orange is thus a form of resistance, a way of reclaiming their agency and identity in a hostile environment.
I made that up, but that's pretty much what he was going on about. Like what the frick are you even talking about?
This show is really deep, and I'm laughing that you guys don't get it. Let me explain it for you brainlets. The ghost of Travis Cohle, a spectral and erratic figure, represents the chaotic and irrational nature of the human mind. By doing interpretive dance on the ice, he is expressing his inner turmoil and madness, as well as his fascination with the dark forces. The ice, a frozen and slippery surface, symbolizes the fragility and instability of human knowledge and civilization. The lady, his former wife, a curious and adventurous character, represents the inquisitive and daring aspects of human behavior. She fears the wolves, the evil and cunning animals, and avoids them at all costs. The wolves are the minions of an eldritch evil god, the hidden threat of the ice, that seeks to destroy all life. The ghost's dance is thus a temptation, a lure of curiosity and danger, and a trap to expose the lady to the horror and madness beyond the superficial and material reality.

youre a good writer fren
Sure but this show is like a 7/10 but you guys are treating it like a 3/10 for no other reason besides the female protagonists (and possibly female writing)
it's more like a 4/10 at this point dudebro. It's just an incoherent mess. Stuff happens because it happens. The only things setup in the series are the Hank prank and the sister suicide. But all of it is so on the nose. These detectives aren't detectiving. They've hardly questioned anyone yet. The big manhunt happened off screen.
The costguard comes in and saves the day. Spots the dead sister and takes a pic of a man walking about. Peter's marriage is going to shit because he's not been home much for a week. I mean hello, this is the biggest thing that has and will ever happen to this town. Ofcourse your police officer husband is gonna be busy. Navarro gets the living daylight kicked out of her. She's hurt when she gets to Qaviq. He fixes her up (usually it's the girls who do that to the men you see, Isa knows how to Gender swap). The next morning she has two bruises on her face. I mean what happened to all the cuts? she was gushing blood ffs.
The first two episodes were all about how Danvers couldn't stand Navarro. Yet since they've been working together again. There's been no struggle whatsoever.
Teenage Daughter Leah defaces the mining offices. Danvers talks her out of trouble. Leah goes like, i can't believe you took their side. Are you dense? i know your supposed to be a teen and all that but wth is wrong with you.
Now i can go on and on. But this is not a fricking 7/10. I think my 4/10 is quite generous considering I've gotten madder and madder the more i typed. The only redeeming factor is that its only 6 episodes. If this was the normal 8 i wouldn't have bothered finishing this show.
There's zero human connection or realistic empathy being shown. That's because the telenovela writer can only do shallow one-dimensional characters with cliched dialogue (and hamfisted themes).
Looking at her CV there was nothing to suggest she had the skills to live up to the previous 2 seasons, let alone S1. So "the right fricking questions" needing answered are: how and why did they give it to her? As it's not based on merit.
HBO has been making some really questionable decisions for the past couple of years. guess their golden age is over now and they will produce shit while having their bread and butter franchises be stolen by apple tv or disney

Why only 6 episodes? I think beyond some financial point of no return HBO realized they fricked up, it was a hopeless dumpster fire of a project, and to cut their losses and limit it to 6 episodes?
I'm picturing some exec coming in to check on her progress and seeing a bunch of shit scattered on the floor then him telling her she needs to wrap this up.
At this point I won't be surprised if next episode is 57 minutes of stupid shit like mine protests or natives cooking or shitting on Qavvik or Foster dry-humping plus Prior's murder the last 3.
Cthulhu is a monstrous entity of tentacles, wings, and claws, with a vaguely humanoid shape and a grotesque face. Its presence radiates a dark and chaotic energy that defies the laws of nature and reason. Cthulhu is the embodiment of the diverse feminine power that has been suppressed and marginalized by the patriarchal structures of civilization, especially the white male dominance of western science and rationality. Cthulhu is terrifying to behold, but also awe-inspiring and liberating, as it represents the potential for a new world order that transcends the limitations and biases of the old one.
Facing Cthulhu is a one-eyed polar bear. The polar bear is a symbol of the white male resistance to change and progress, as it clings to its narrow and rigid worldview that ignores the complexity and diversity of reality. The polar bear has one eye because it only sees through the lens of one perspective, that of the western scientific method, which claims to be objective and universal, but is actually based on the assumptions and interests of a privileged group. The polar bear is blind to the other ways of knowing and being that exist in the world, such as the native wisdom and spirituality that have a deeper connection to the land and the cosmos. It's no coincidence that it was white male scientists lost on the ice, the polar bear representing the final stand. This can be seen multiple times when the polar bear still attempts to block the progress of the female detectives by literally walking in front of their cars. It's a final and petty attempt to stop progress with what little power it has.
Ah, so the "corpsicle" was actually a visual symbol of white males clinging to each other in terror in the face of native and feminine knowledge. They would rather walk out into the void and die than embrace a more progressive way of thinking. It's white flight, which ultimately leads to their demise.
The one-eyed polar bear is a white large penis which represents toxic masculinity. A minor annoyance that can stop you if you let it, but ultimately should just be ignored. Not unlike the internet incel trolls that hate this show.

I always loved this scene. Imagine sitting around with your kid and some stranger next to you is all "Hey you check out this graphic video of someone being fricking killed".
I love when Julia was about to die so the song "everybody dies" played as she was going to die as an Easter egg to refer to when she died, so we the audience can be part of the true detective world
Shows how fricking shit Cinemaphile is that this gets a general every episode >inb4 every season of td has had generals
not this trash though. All kys for supporting this trash homosexuals.
unlike previous seasons, the current season is being streamed and livestreamed, all over, because i guess nobody cares.
Why are you watching it? I torrented the first episode, watched that and can tell from that alone it's terrible. Why are you watching this at all? Why are you discussing it here? Even slightly propelling it's popularity is bad.
The only characterw that are written to be good people seem to be the rookie cop and Navarro's boyfriend. I'm guessing they will both die or end up as bad guys
>I'm guessing they will both die or end up as bad guys
I think they're setting up the rookie to beat his wife or something. It would be like a cycle of violence thing, like father like son, maybe even his son will see it happen to really drive it home.
autists and incels are incapable of detecting sarcasm and are taking some light hearted 'white boy' jokes very seriously to the point that it has coloured their opinion of the entire show. Ironically most of them are brown
John Hawkes deserved a better career
It's crazy how he got shafted basically every step of the way. Deadwood was kino but got cancelled. Too Old to Die Young was sort of kino but it was also ruined by the fact that Refn is autistic and just keep shooting until he ran out of money. You would think that True Detective would finally give him a chance to shine, but it ended up being the shittiest season ever.
he's a israelite riding that nepotism
but he's at least got a little talent
He's not israeli and he's great in everything I've seen him in.
First episode was pretty cool but at this point I'm finna give up on this. Life's too short to watch shit TV.

Agreed. I think I'm going to stop at episode 4.
I stopped at 2 and literally come back here to shitpost my hatred for it. You honestly don't need to watch it to know where the story is at.
episodes 3 and 4 having been 98% filler also helps.

The only emotionally grounded thing that happened in this episode was Mike Tyson dropping her druggie sister off at the clinic. It's the only thing a writer actually seemed to have written from an honest place. The rest of it was untethered speculation about how a human being would act if you removed all agency and self awareness from all the principal cast. It's utter fanciful trash.

>Mike Tyson
top kek. she does have her name a lot in the credits
Why the FRICK was Navarro's ear bleeding at the end?
She was in the midst of getting another piercing.
leaks say it's some ultrasound device that's used for drilling or scanning the ice or something, supposedly it fricks you up without proper hearing protection. it's also why the deer in the beginning lost their minds or why the scientist's ear drums were all ruptured. as to why only navarro got some, i don't know. maye there some other dude or b***h sneaking around the compound activating the device to frick up pursuers or something.
but honestly it could all be bullshit, considering how fricking stupid this lopez b***h of a director is
That can't be real
It's real. Real rich to be dunking on "boomers" when she's in her mid-50s.
It's been discussed, ad nauseum.
Imagine going through all these gymnastics when you could just go "its a fricking poster used as set dressing. get over your ai fobia, morons."
Or that it was simply added to add a off filter feel to the scene.
Danvers White noise headphones will play a part when the sound machine is cranked to 10 in the finale. Also im pretty sure it's infrasounds not ultrasounds
>infrasounds not ultrasounds
maybe, im a techlet trying to repeat what other anons said in an earlier thread. here's some other "leak"
Alright so we have everything figured out except for why Hank kills Pete and the full season 1 tuttle connection
There is no connection. This Season was made as it's own thing before they slapped the True Detective name on it. That's why Nic Pizza is trashing season 4.
but they keep shilling this bullshit story that Issa Lopez won the gig by pitching a female cold True Detective season to juxtapose the male sweaty first season. That it was a True Detective season from day 1.
Lol, that will be so pathetic if it's the reveal... these guys aren't redneck miners, they're international scientists with PhDs and shit, is Lopez really gonna them gang-rape an indigenous girl like it's the liberal fantasy version of the Brett Kavanaugh allegations?
fr fr no cap
how would "she's awake" fit into this?
it sounds cool and ominous. stop thinking things actually matter or connect coherently.
>All the scientists have guilt over raping Annie
>Cleaning ladies leave annies tattoo everywhere, cut off the lights and blast everyone with infrasounds to drive them crazy
>"That girl we killed has come back to life to punish us!" Just doesn't have the same spooky ring as "she's awake! She came for us in the dark!"
Supposedly almost all and any things concerning the supernatural will not be elaborated on and are just there for style with no substance to show for, yes it's that moronic.
One thing that will be explained is the spiral scribbles being some sort of really old symbol for the good and natural which got corrupted by the evil in the world or something.

Damn, she really learned from Pizza
She's a spooky ghost
jumpscares were always my favourite thing about True Detective
who is that icewalker? two piercings below the bottom lip, stupid hoe random tattoo above left breast
you are meant to believe its her fat sister
This never even occurred to me. They look nothing alike.
face tattoo similar hair color looks frozen like her sister kek
its a poorly made prop to be sure
maybe a younger version of her? looks nothing fricking like her
they hired female BIPOC queer propmaker?
the Issa lady apparently does a podcast for the show. we could always.. LOL...listen to it and maybe we'd find out who the ghosty chick is. better you than me thoughever.
oh god. who among us will make the sacrifice to mine the cringe?

She had the balls to compare it to season 1.

my decision is that this is even worse than s2
the show would have been immediately critically panned and binned if it didn't have the true detective brand attached to it
it's too much to bear do not let stopping claim you of your manhood. you are very brave for doing this.
if it's^
guess me and the chick got something in common. i cant speak english either.
Its really bad bro. Its an ESL explanation of what happened.
7 minutes in and no mention of any men characters yet.
11 minutes in. I don't like it. It's very pretentious.

Pretty sure it's supposed to be the mom
an amalgamation of the two?
this is what Navarros mom looks like
Every time a spooky ghost in this show points...

They need to explain more about the dredge. For instance: what is a dredge?
someone has never watched Gold Rush
It's an indie game currently available on PC and consoles.

my theory is that the white cop is rust
It makes sense when you think about it
my theory is that Rust is the Blue King and he came back to Alaska because Time is a Flat Circle. he discovered a new entrance to Carcosa at the Nook and needed to sacrifice the scientists for their white devil energy.
>polar bear replaces a fox
night country made me miss this little fren like you wouldn't believe
I thought if a polar bear saw you it's game over. Why isn't that old homie eating the shit out of these people?
It's her spirit animal.
From the snowy tundra
Her looming shadow grows
Hidden in the snow fall
Of their moistened winter coats
She mined their fine ore slowly
But men wanted their fun
And when they touched her skin
Inuit fingers ran with blood
No fricking way I'm the first reply to this gem
Why hasn't Rustin Cohle's dad showed up to solve the rest of the story? What has he been doing since the last time we seen him?
Shooting at God
No girlfriend. Just go to work,
go home.
Dancing.

This season is good and no amount of seething about politics will change that
This season is awful and politics has nothing to do with it. The pacing is terrible and the plot is going nowhere.
Yeah man I love watching a detective show halfway through and we don't get any compelling breaks in the case.
Halfway through season 1, McConaughey was fighting his way through the ghetto like Leon Kennedy killing Spaniards.
I just rewatched that episode the other day. It's acted, shot, and directed so fricking well. Really sad when you compare it to this season.
You're that guy eating slimy goop with both of his hands and loving it just because someone told him to.
You have to eat all of the goop.
He's doing it to own the right.
Hillary lost and no amount of seething will change that
so one Cinemaphile guy theorized that Jodie Foster is the one catfishing the skinny israelite actor cop guy with the russian bride, saying all the beeps from his texts are Tinder notifications.
i think hes right

it's pretty obvious everyone is wrong about his girlfriend and she really is showing up at some point to wrap up the only happy thread. everything from her asking for money, to his pout to the bunny to the champagne to the fricking flower petals is melodramatic misdirection

the music director is such a basic b***h. probably thought mazzy star kinda sounded like the season 2 chick "this is my least favorite life" in the bar. mazzy star is great but it was just a bad selection sounded out of place.

You know, Nigvarro, they say the Night Country is made of spirals, but it looks more like a circle to me. Can't stick a square in it tbh.
they really fricked up with the casting and script
cant blame actors
Jodie and John tried their absolute hardest to save this piece of shit, but they have nothing to work with.
>they really fricked up with the casting and script
>cant blame actors
At first I genuinely thought this was gonna be the guy they were looking for. Every moment he was onscreen I was expecting him to say something.
Right? He demands your attention, dominates every scene he's in without saying a word. Dude is a natural, they struck gold and they fricked up bigtime not making him a main character.

>The human geneticist Bryan Sykes (1947–2020) wrote, "On the matrilineal side, all of the mDNA lineages are of either European or African origin, while the patrilineal Y chromosomes show a range of Native American, European, and African lineages plus one surprise from New Guinea." He continued that "genealogical reconstruction showed that the single Native American Y chromosome was most likely introduced into the tribe by a Cherokee incomer several generations back." He wrote further: "In contrast, the complete absence of Native American mDNA among the Seaconke Wampanoag came as a great surprise to me, given the usual direction of intermarriage between African and European American incomers and Native American women."
How are they going to clean up this clusterfrick in 2 episodes?
they won't
?t=82
Why does Foster look deathly ill in every scene? It can't be just her age; she's white as a sheet in a way that looks really unnatural. Is this a frickup from the makeup department or the lighting or what?
Merry Christmas
wtf was the point of this scene. the point of this character? self-insert.
That's what I was talking about with my wife. Like what the frick is the point of adding a whole other mystery when it doesn't even seem like it's going anywhere. Like I said in my previous post, I don't mind slow burn shit and character development, but we only have six episodes and they drug their feet through four of them trying to flesh out characters I don't give a frick about. These scenes are totally pointless in a show that's only six episodes long.
This is only six episodes? That hilarious. I wonder did HBO shitcan a lot of telenovella bullshit from the final edit
>don't forget this b***h is here
>muh bechdel test
>le old weed woman
>frick
>yfw you find out she's the killer and that's why the revisted a totally pointless character and she mentions some vague backstory and is acting odd by making a huge meal, almost as if in celebration of what she set out to accomplish, and also as a last meal because she knows she's about to be caught
Like when she showed back up and the old lady was dressed up having Christmas dinner, and then mentioned she used to be someone else but changed her name, I figured her to be some sort of eco terrorist or something. She set out to do whatever it is she set out to do, and now she's just waiting for the noose to tighten, but doesn't really care all that much because she already won.
Basically this picture is what I thought of during that scene.
She kind of reminds me of a wine aunt version of the log lady from twin peaks.
Who the frick was this lady? Why was Navaro there?
Isn't it Rust's mom? No idea why Nigvarro was there
I think she just fricked his dad but is unrelated to rust.
That's who I thought it was, but she lived in a little shack, not a fancy house. Unless that place in the earlier episode was her wolf-butchering shack (who butchers wolves, anyway? Is that a thing?).
Also she wasn't Rust's mom, she just fricked his dad on the side.
>who butchers wolves, anyway? Is that a thing?
lol no. I guess if it's between that and dying of hunger. Maybe she just wants the pelt?
>(who butchers wolves, anyway? Is that a thing?).
>lol no. I guess if it's between that and dying of hunger. Maybe she just wants the pelt?
it makes sense when you realize its a self-insert character and they just want to make her look cool like yeah she hunts and butchers WOLVES man
Exactly, she's not chinese.
Is she getting all this money as the fake Russian girlfriend?
Why would she do that? Does she even know the drunk cop?
sure but explain her doing the weird shit she does
holy shit she does have corrosive eyes, she does have a demon
also shes gotta be a crypto-israelite look at that face
Nothing more grim than having black soulless eyes like that
Lifeless eyes... black eyes, like a doll's eye... don't seem to be livin'...
And this here is detective work and what gathering evidence looks like
time is a phat circle fr
If this was a stand alone show, it wouldn't be that bad. It gives off vibes of a slow burn police procedural show, which I don't mind at all. However, we're four episodes in, and it feels like they've just been dancing around the case. Like I said, I don't mind a slow burn show, but there's only six episodes total. I don't mind character development, I don't mind little side stories, I don't mind drama...but they're trying to pack this all into six episodes with a massive mystery that they've barely talked about. I don't really feel like "filler episodes" is the best choice of words, but I kind of am interested in the characters, but I'm more interested in the case, especially since I know the show is almost over and we've barely even talked done any actual detective work.
If they wanted to do a slow burn detective show with paranormal teasers, I feel like it should have been more episodes...possibly multiple seasons. It just feels like everything is going to be rushed in the last five minutes of the 5th episode with a huge cliff hanger, and then the first half of the 6th episode everything will be solved.
If it was a standalone show, we wouldn't be talking about it a month from now.
I don't think we'll be talking about this show a month from now regardless. It has the pacing of Better Call Saul, but without the actual number of episodes to pull it off. The entire show feels like they took several X-Files pre-opening credits scenes and mashed them together, and then tried to turn it into a slow burn police procedural. I can't find the right words to explain it, but it just feels like the trajectory of the show is like they planned on making it 18 episodes and wrote it like that, but at the last minute through filming they said "oh hey, it's actually going to be six episodes now". You have all of these characters fleshed out and this entire mystery is supposed to actually get solved in the last two episodes with no actual detective work having been done in the first four?
Scale 1-10 . how bad is it?
Didn't watch Ep1 I just had a bad feeling
It's unbelievably bad.
Entitled Whiteboy / 10
God this show is just boring. other than the setting, there's nothing interesting about this. all the supernatural elements feel so out of place for this show. i guess it's the characters being schizo, but even then not really
>muh curse
frick you
This show goes absolutely nowhere.
It feels so much like foreign shit I've turned on accidentally it's crazy. The Hispanic b***h can't help but write like a shitty wetback soap opera, they really have no skill for creative writing whatsoever if this is the pinnacle of their ability. They gave a Hispanic one of the biggest HBO hits of all time to make a season of and it's so fricking bad.
I don't think she wrote it, I think she fed ideas into AI and edited it. The Netflix Resident Evil show felt the same way, went around in circles and by the end of the show, arrived nowhere.
new theory and I think you're right.
we know they used AI for the metal concert poster, and her explanation why smells like bullshit. maybe its a hint, inside joke, that they used AI to help write the story. it would explain some of the worst dialogue scenes.
>we know they used AI for the metal concert poster
I was going to mention that next, it all tracks.
>they used AI to help write the story. it would explain some of the worst dialogue scenes
This makes a lot of sense and would explain why the creator felt a need to even address the AI poster at all.
>and her explanation why smells like bullshit
Yeah she doesn't like ai so she used ai?
>Yeah she doesn't like ai so she used ai?
methinks she doth protest too much
What if this was a test case for AI writing by the industry heavies? This was written right before the writers' strike?
>you are now in.... LE NIGHT COUNTRY!!!
this show is such a piece of shit
>father of your kid
>use his last name
To be fair, some people go by their last names either because they prefer it or simply because everyone always calls them by their last name. My ex wife was always called by her last name even after we married and she took my name. Not even I used her first name.
what did you scream out when she pegged you? your own last name?
Wait, was it you who actually married Rebecca prostitute?
>MEN ARE LE BAD
>WHITE PEOPLE ARE LE BAD
not watching this any longer
This shit feels like it belongs on American Horror Story.
WHERES THE SHOOTOUT?
This kino will never be topped
fricking hell i totally forgot about this. goddamn that was amazing continuous shot.
It was a fricking masterpiece. For months anytime I would do cocaine I would HAVE to watch this scene to stimulate me
>mfw I first saw it
How could you forget it? I finally let out a breath when the episode was done.
my least favorite episode. people go nuts over it being one shot, but it's clunky and awkward. also mood wise didn't match with the rest of the season
>step daughter is 27 in real life
I knew she was too ugly to be a teenager
This season is shockingly bad. What a massive, massive piece of fricking shit.
I rewatched Season 2 before this one started, and it's super underrated. The music is good, the characters are good, and you can't say that about this season.
Is Jodi Foster trolling the cop dad by pretending to be the Russian mail order bride? She's always on her phone ostensibly playing Fantasy Football or using Tinder.
i believe the current flavor of the week in that is Rose being the troller. something in this last episode made me believe it wasnt Danvers but i honestly cant remember even a day ago.
Thats a good theory.
yeah thats a theory one of our kinomeisters came up with a few threads back. i think he's right
i can't even remember which character is Rose lol its all such slop
You guys would not be acting so dramatic if the two leads were males.
The problems with this show go way beyond the gender of the two main characters. The pacing is shit and the story is full of irrelevant fluff nobody cares about. We are 4 episodes in and 2 of them have been filler episodes. There's only 2 more episodes to go and they have hardly even worked on the case at all yet.
And as I was saying, I wouldn't mind a slower pace. But it's only a six episode season lol. I want to see some fricking detective work. The only thing that would even justify any of this is if Navarro is the killer, which seems to be the current theory I keep seeing. Some shit about her having a split personality.
Before I even read that theory, after I finished watching the 4th episode, I was thinking about the murder suicide that they both responded to. It seems that both female police officers seem to have problems with hallucinations, and it's implied that it wasn't actually a murder suicide, but one of the officers killed that man and they covered it up. Kind of like in Season 1 when Marty blew that dude's head off and Rust covered it up by shooting the AK out in the woods. However...you never really hear Danvers and Navarro talking about it that much. Is it possible that it was actually a murder suicide and Danvers imagined him being alive, whistling that Twist and Shout song? And from Navarro's point of view she was fixated on that ghost shit she saw? Two different perspectives on a crime scene, both false.
I don't know, maybe it's a dumb idea, I just found it weird that the guy was whistling the twist and shout song, and both officers seem to share hallucinations.
You are giving the writer a lot of credit.
Probably. My wife likes to watch those episode breakdown shows and the one she watched actually pissed me off a little bit. The guy gave the most pretentious explanation of every stupid little fricking scene. As if the show was packed with powerful symbolism. It was shit like:
>The orange, a spherical and vibrant fruit, represents the feminine essence of life and creativity. By rolling it on the ground, one is enacting a ritual of defiance against the patriarchal forces that seek to suppress and exploit the female energy. The ground, a cold and barren surface, symbolizes the harsh and oppressive conditions that the eskimo women face in their daily lives. They must endure the extreme cold, the scarcity of resources, and the violence of their male counterparts. The act of rolling the orange is thus a form of resistance, a way of reclaiming their agency and identity in a hostile environment.
I made that up, but that's pretty much what he was going on about. Like what the frick are you even talking about?
>I made that up,
goddamn you had me going, that was really good fren
i can tell you're the same guy now having fun parody-baiting. i'm going to copypasta that last one without a pic to try to bait a thread next week
I had to go through my watch history to find the channel that does the breakdowns that pissed me off. It's Screencrush. Listening to his pseudo babble actually made me angry.
>This one scene of a an empty parking could symbolize the emptiness that Danvers feels in her life after losing her son.
Stupid shit like that, like someone just pulled it out of their ass. I guess you have to because nothing has actually happened in the show.
its the product of our education system, we're forced to just bullshit
that guy looks suicidal
i know this poster too, one of my favorites
youre a good writer fren
that has never stopped us shitting on a thing ever
Sure but this show is like a 7/10 but you guys are treating it like a 3/10 for no other reason besides the female protagonists (and possibly female writing)
Is that you, Issa?
it's more like a 4/10 at this point dudebro. It's just an incoherent mess. Stuff happens because it happens. The only things setup in the series are the Hank prank and the sister suicide. But all of it is so on the nose. These detectives aren't detectiving. They've hardly questioned anyone yet. The big manhunt happened off screen.
The costguard comes in and saves the day. Spots the dead sister and takes a pic of a man walking about. Peter's marriage is going to shit because he's not been home much for a week. I mean hello, this is the biggest thing that has and will ever happen to this town. Ofcourse your police officer husband is gonna be busy. Navarro gets the living daylight kicked out of her. She's hurt when she gets to Qaviq. He fixes her up (usually it's the girls who do that to the men you see, Isa knows how to Gender swap). The next morning she has two bruises on her face. I mean what happened to all the cuts? she was gushing blood ffs.
The first two episodes were all about how Danvers couldn't stand Navarro. Yet since they've been working together again. There's been no struggle whatsoever.
Teenage Daughter Leah defaces the mining offices. Danvers talks her out of trouble. Leah goes like, i can't believe you took their side. Are you dense? i know your supposed to be a teen and all that but wth is wrong with you.
Now i can go on and on. But this is not a fricking 7/10. I think my 4/10 is quite generous considering I've gotten madder and madder the more i typed. The only redeeming factor is that its only 6 episodes. If this was the normal 8 i wouldn't have bothered finishing this show.
There's zero human connection or realistic empathy being shown. That's because the telenovela writer can only do shallow one-dimensional characters with cliched dialogue (and hamfisted themes).
Looking at her CV there was nothing to suggest she had the skills to live up to the previous 2 seasons, let alone S1. So "the right fricking questions" needing answered are: how and why did they give it to her? As it's not based on merit.
checked
HBO has been making some really questionable decisions for the past couple of years. guess their golden age is over now and they will produce shit while having their bread and butter franchises be stolen by apple tv or disney
dubs and trips of truth
How shallow must the resolution to the mystery be if 4 episodes in their has been barely any progress on solving it?
The subtle horror and supernatural themes have been absolutely stellar this season.
Subtle?
He's blind.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA SADAKO IS IN YOUR FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE
Why only 6 episodes? I think beyond some financial point of no return HBO realized they fricked up, it was a hopeless dumpster fire of a project, and to cut their losses and limit it to 6 episodes?
I'm picturing some exec coming in to check on her progress and seeing a bunch of shit scattered on the floor then him telling her she needs to wrap this up.
13 more days until we don't have to deal with this bullshit anymore
I can't wait
Its a callback to her time in the Middle East as a soldier. I don't know why.
To show us that she is a badass.
amalgamating the gay ex-soldier from season 2
awful
Guys, don’t be scared but: ꩜
same
At this point I won't be surprised if next episode is 57 minutes of stupid shit like mine protests or natives cooking or shitting on Qavvik or Foster dry-humping plus Prior's murder the last 3.
I could be killed if they found out about this, but Cthulhu actually appears to fight the bear in the final episode
Cthulhu is a monstrous entity of tentacles, wings, and claws, with a vaguely humanoid shape and a grotesque face. Its presence radiates a dark and chaotic energy that defies the laws of nature and reason. Cthulhu is the embodiment of the diverse feminine power that has been suppressed and marginalized by the patriarchal structures of civilization, especially the white male dominance of western science and rationality. Cthulhu is terrifying to behold, but also awe-inspiring and liberating, as it represents the potential for a new world order that transcends the limitations and biases of the old one.
Facing Cthulhu is a one-eyed polar bear. The polar bear is a symbol of the white male resistance to change and progress, as it clings to its narrow and rigid worldview that ignores the complexity and diversity of reality. The polar bear has one eye because it only sees through the lens of one perspective, that of the western scientific method, which claims to be objective and universal, but is actually based on the assumptions and interests of a privileged group. The polar bear is blind to the other ways of knowing and being that exist in the world, such as the native wisdom and spirituality that have a deeper connection to the land and the cosmos. It's no coincidence that it was white male scientists lost on the ice, the polar bear representing the final stand. This can be seen multiple times when the polar bear still attempts to block the progress of the female detectives by literally walking in front of their cars. It's a final and petty attempt to stop progress with what little power it has.
WOW. This show is fricking powerful.
Wrong. The one eyed polar bear is a metaphor for White penis which most of the women in the show crave.
Ah, so the "corpsicle" was actually a visual symbol of white males clinging to each other in terror in the face of native and feminine knowledge. They would rather walk out into the void and die than embrace a more progressive way of thinking. It's white flight, which ultimately leads to their demise.
The one-eyed polar bear is a white large penis which represents toxic masculinity. A minor annoyance that can stop you if you let it, but ultimately should just be ignored. Not unlike the internet incel trolls that hate this show.
This show is really deep, and I'm laughing that you guys don't get it. Let me explain it for you brainlets. The ghost of Travis Cohle, a spectral and erratic figure, represents the chaotic and irrational nature of the human mind. By doing interpretive dance on the ice, he is expressing his inner turmoil and madness, as well as his fascination with the dark forces. The ice, a frozen and slippery surface, symbolizes the fragility and instability of human knowledge and civilization. The lady, his former wife, a curious and adventurous character, represents the inquisitive and daring aspects of human behavior. She fears the wolves, the evil and cunning animals, and avoids them at all costs. The wolves are the minions of an eldritch evil god, the hidden threat of the ice, that seeks to destroy all life. The ghost's dance is thus a temptation, a lure of curiosity and danger, and a trap to expose the lady to the horror and madness beyond the superficial and material reality.

This season's writing in a nutshell
>ring ring ring
>omg Chief you won't what just happened
excellent
seen a lot of these webms churned out here. is it just a handful of season 1 purists having a meltdown over a show for calling itself true detective?
I sincerely urge you to watch the show. You will be here posting with us in no time.
try watching it. i dare you.
one of us
one of us
one of us
I call myself a billionaire and that makes it true
Watch it and tell me it's well written
the whole psychosphere pyschos fear bit is better written than this entire show
I always loved this scene. Imagine sitting around with your kid and some stranger next to you is all "Hey you check out this graphic video of someone being fricking killed".
unironically something my mom would do.
The Corpsicle will end up being the logo of the Tuttle Corporation or some shit lmao
it's already shown being carried away in episode 4. its almost entirely melted now.
I love when Julia was about to die so the song "everybody dies" played as she was going to die as an Easter egg to refer to when she died, so we the audience can be part of the true detective world
who is julia
I thought her name was Babygirl
ILOVEUSOMUSHHBABYGIRLL
I was looking forward to her nudity but they angled it like prudes. I got a bad feeling there's gonna be no boobs
What was even the point of this character? What did she contribute to the main murder mystery plot?
contributes to the Navarro family being mentally damaged and soon she will be too. or already is! the suspense !
The point?
What the frick went wrong, frick you hbo for pumping out this garbage
Strong woman writers
Shows how fricking shit Cinemaphile is that this gets a general every episode
>inb4 every season of td has had generals
not this trash though. All kys for supporting this trash homosexuals.

Sure thing.
I presume there are multiple people in this thread.
Why are you watching it? I torrented the first episode, watched that and can tell from that alone it's terrible. Why are you watching this at all? Why are you discussing it here? Even slightly propelling it's popularity is bad.
The threads are fun. Are you really unaware of hate watching as a concept?
unlike previous seasons, the current season is being streamed and livestreamed, all over, because i guess nobody cares.
"from" gets generals here when it airs and compared to that td season 4 is a masterpiece, tv is just full of fricktards.
From has fat daughter breasts though.
Oh look it's a racist misogynist. Run away now whiteboy, these threads aren't for you.
>autist doesn't understand the joy of watching garbage fire tv
Jodie really can't play a straight woman. It's so obvious she's a dyke. Reminds me of gaymount on Mindhunter.
Nah you're just biased cuz you know it now. You wouldn't think twice if she was still in the closet.
The only characterw that are written to be good people seem to be the rookie cop and Navarro's boyfriend. I'm guessing they will both die or end up as bad guys
>I'm guessing they will both die or end up as bad guys
I think they're setting up the rookie to beat his wife or something. It would be like a cycle of violence thing, like father like son, maybe even his son will see it happen to really drive it home.
God I hope so
that c**t needs a good beating
I've only seen episode 1 so far but I don't see why people hate it.
ok, let me get you up to speed anon...
because it fricking sucks
wow, what a convincing argument.
almost as good as your argument as to why it doesnt suck
I wasn't making an argument.
so why does he have to, when he disagrees with your opinion?
why does he have to respond in the first place?
why do you have to post in the first place
to learn why Cinemaphile feels so strongly about this season.
because it fricking sucks. you were already told this.
>why do people think it's bad?
>durrrr because it bad
Amazing thread
again, state your own argument better or ask a proper question if you want to get a proper answer. Piss off.
he told you why
if you enjoy it, you're a braindead homosexual. shrimple as.
Verification not required.
autists and incels are incapable of detecting sarcasm and are taking some light hearted 'white boy' jokes very seriously to the point that it has coloured their opinion of the entire show. Ironically most of them are brown
There are very few decent female writers. They just don't have the same divine spark that men have, sadly enough.
I miss Sarah Gadon.
Wow beautiful angel Sarah Gadon!
>the native woman can see ghosts
Shouldn’t libs be outraged by this shit
>two warriors are sent to protect you but only one may stay
who do you pick?
i would choose Forgetful Blackman. so we can hangout and not stop thinking about kids together
Definitely Ron. He'd keep me healthy
