I’m here to say, hat in hand, S4 of TD was not very good. I was an advocate for ‘let’s just see how it goes,’ but ultimately disappointed. hey, i get it. hope should always die last

I was enjoying it at the start but by episode 4 I was pretty done with it. Too many pointless subplots and bad meandering plots to deal with. Finale confirmed what I thought would happen.

I think I checked out of the new season of TD around ep 2 or 3. On the other hand, the new season of Curb is great.

I liked the part at the end where they said “I guess we are just a couple of true detectives!” and then high fived.

wow. reading up on this, i guess nvarro did kill herself and that was her spirit chilling with danvers cuz she said "if you do go, come back". cuz the veil is thin in ennis. so fucked. like all she was there to do was "solve" annie's murder.
someone else commented, "murders solved - 0, murders committed - 8ish"

TD s4 is legit some of the worst television i’ve ever watched. issa lopez hack script had been floating around for a while before HBO offered to pick it up under the condition that it could be shoehorned into the TD franchise. the writing, music direction and special effects are so fucking bad it’s almost funny, jodi must have gotten a fat check to phone in this dogshit.

ppl are also throwing around the film "wind river" as a "reference"/rip off point. haven't seen it

As bad as it was, night country is still miles ahead of season two (and night country is pretty terrible)

what was the point of the scientists looking so terrified, gnawing at their bodies, and their ruptured ear drums to imply they definitely didn't freeze to death, have a vet come in to be like "these men definitely didn't freeze to death" only for the cleaning lady's lynch mob to be like "those men definitely froze to death"
The fucking dumbest show ever. Why have anything relate to the Tuttles? What was Rose to everyone? Show was ass through and through.

I watched the first 2 episodes but after all the bad reactions, I'm just gonna opt to not finish it. Life is too short to waste on 6 hours of TV that I'm probably gonna shrug at by the end. I'm disappointed the season was apparently such a dud, cause I really liked Issa Lopez's movie Tigers Are Not Afraid. Highly recommended if you dig earlier Guillermo Del Toro stuff like Devil's Backbone or Pan's Labyrinth.

I think we’re all now the True Detectives, just trying to figure out what the fuck that was.

I’m reading “explanations” and it really is as dumb as some of us with alright minds think it is. I was like half joking when I said were the new true detectives now

Issa Lopez's explanation for how the Coast Guard found Navarro's sister's body so quickly is actually infuriating. I can't believe this person got a job. [In the case of Julia Navarro’s death], Julia walks onto the ice. It’s Christmas. There’s a bunch of young fishermen — everybody’s a fisherman in this part of Alaska — that just go to drink and party, and possibly fish, but at that hour they’re not fishing. They go on the water, and they see the body, and this woman has blue hair. Everybody knows her. So they call the coast guard. And that’s how it happened. So someone asks about this nicely [on social media]. And I answer nicely. Then they come back and they go: “It’s freezing! Nobody parties out there!” Baby, this is not Michigan, hon. There’s six months of this weather. Believe me, I was there. They do go out every night; they’re going to go out on Christmas Eve. So it’s very antagonistic. But every single part has been thought of. this is why you've done multiple interviews having to address every single plot hole you left behind.

WHAT DO DONALD TRUMP'S ELECTION, DAVID BOWIE'S DEATH, METOO, THE PANDEMIC, AND GEORGE FLOYD HAVE TO DO WITH SEASON 1 OF TRUE DETECTIVE?!?!?! Issa Lopez is actually mentally ill which is gobsmacking considering being mentally ill should theoretically make you a better creative.

Has it already been discussed that Sofia Vergera with a little toned down makeup and 70s clothes doesn't make her ugly/Griselda?
