There's still a chance! They could always use a hardened detective to play a lieutenant or something.

Can you imagine the pressure this guy is under? Having to follow up Rust and Marty is no small feat.

I think he should totally change the tone / atmosphere for Season Two. Go screwball comedy with it. Just shatter all comparisons by making it totally stupid and simplistic. But, you know, with a lot of laughs.

This show is awesome.
Gets all intense and scary out of the blue.
They'll have a hard time matching this in a second season.

The last episode really ruined this for me, it was so bad... 2/3 of this show was ok, but I'd say this is one of the most overrated shows in a while.
I want to be a warm and friendly person
But I don't know how to do it

While that's somewhat disappointing, I completely understand and respect that decision. I don't want that show to turn into a novelty act for the sake of milking everything they can from it.

Season two plot outline and casting rumors:
Spoiler: show
Caspar’s 52-year-old corpse is found on a lonely stretch of Pacific Coast Highway near Big Sur — satanic symbols etched on his chest. It turns out he had a penchant for rough sex and may have been involved in the occult.

Vince Vaughn is in talks to play Frank Semyon, a former thug-turned-businessman who’s working with a local mayor and his political cohorts to spearhead the construction of a high-speed railway system that links Southern California to Northern California in order to reap financial gains from federal grants and land purchases.

Elizabeth Moss, who recently played a small-town cop in the similarly themed, “Top of the Lake,” is being eyed to play Ani Bezzerides, a tough, no-nonsense Monterey sheriff whose troubled upbringing has driven her to gambling and alcohol.

Colin Farrell is nearing a deal to play Ray Velcoro, who has been damaged by years of turmoil in both his personal and professional lives.

Taylor Kitsch is angling for the role of Paul Woodrugh, a handsome, 28-year-old military veteran who has seen his own share of violence and destruction. Michelle Forbes, who starred on the first season of “The Killing,” has been rumored for a part on “True Detective,” and it’s possible she could play either Farrell’s ex-wife (a survivor of sexual assault) or Vaughn’s charming but mercurial wife.

What would be killer (metaphorically) would be if the three stories were actually in the same world, but the it wasn't revealed until the very end.
