HBO Television Show: True Detective

[DeLima]

i agree that it's possible it may not be the best show ever

[epilogue]

Nowhere near the best show ever. But I enjoyed it verymuch. Despite how much the general reaction to the finale is pissing me off.

Still, very much looking forward to Season 2.

i must be lucky because i have not experienced any negative reactions to the finale, only heard about them from others

After being emasculated watching the men of Girls, I thought you might embrace this show.

Oh, Orson

[nyquillyn]

Even with its shorter length per storyline I'd put True Detective up against any TV of the last couple decades

I would put it right below Broadchurch.

And below The Returned, which is now on Netflix.

tell me what show is better than this

[Dev]

gonna say the plot fell apart when rust went with marty's wife. the last two episodes were not that well written. but it's put together so well it doesn't even matter.

[Dev]

What was Rust and Marty's plan for when they got to the Childress house?

"Uhhh, I'll sort of drift away from you and look around while you knock on the door of the house of the pyscho we are looking for and ask to use his phone so you can call the real cops to come get him"

also, did rust find god in the end? is that what we were supposed to think? his speech was a bit ambiguous.

Yes.

When you question this writer's plot point, then you question Rust Cohle's decision making. You just don't do that.

he found love

Essentially God.

He found Dostoevsky's God. Which means that he can't help but believe in, or at least accept, the possibility that something else exists, no matter how hard he tries to uphold his absolute doubts. This usually happens to people that go through spiritual awakenings, traumatic experiences.

Are you serious? Do you want like a list or what?

Yes. Well, I mean, sort of. Orson kinda answered it for you. Really, the ending to TD wasn't all that differnt from the end of

Spoiler: show

pretty sure I have considered lines of reasoning like this in the past. But, right now it makes absolutely no sense to me. Why, couldn't I enjoy parts of the writers work but dislike others?
