HBO Television Show: True Detective

[dad]

It's not a good show but it's never been a good show. Acting disguised that in S1.

ouch.

you know it's true.

I can't speak for s2 because I never watched it, but I thought s3 wasn't bad.

S3 was very good. I don’t get the hate at all

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

You can tell it's a bad show because when that one character died last night the music director chose a song called "Everybody dies." Yellowstone does the same thing, Kevin Costner will say something about a horse and then there will be a brief montage with a song called like "My Old Horse." Terrible hack shit from producers who don't have any respect for their viewers' intelligence. I enjoy both shows and look forward to watching new episodes.

Dad Mickey liking Yellowstone is the least surprising thing I can think of.

[Coach]

Wasn't a huge fan of the latest episode but this is still better than most TV right now. Hanging in there. Glad it comes out Friday!

It really bothered me when they left the little encampment for eskimos to interview that guy they left and turned their sirens on … in the middle of nowhere … without another car for miles.

I had the exact same thought at the time.

Gotta let those polar bears know you’re comin

Yes there is always a place for mindless drivel viewing.

I think alerting fauna is probably the reason. At first I thought it was to save face, like "we're leaving empty handed but only because we got an urgent call to attend, not because we got told to fuck right off", but bears makes (slightly) more sense.

[Coach]

I've also enjoyed reading this thread, too. We have a solid crew watching this.

The "reason" is irrelevant. The shot of the the blue and red alternatingly painting the surroundings was so gorgeous. We needed that.

[Ello Sailor]

We needed that.

We needed that.

Please calm down

[Ello Sailor]

Thanks. I needed that.

[VinylGuy]

i do agree with epilogue, the shot was very well done.

[epilogue]

Thanks. I needed that.
