Let me ask, how soon does an episode go up on HBO GO after it airs? I just realized i had access to that site cause of some promotion.

It usually goes up 5-10 minutes after it starts on TV.

Hot fuckin damn! Now i can watch the Ranger game and then start this up. Thanks.

 

[Expendable.]

Fukunaga power. Can't wait.

- Chicago Daily Herald: HBO's 'True Detective' detects a truly dark tale (interview)

 

[MormaPope]

HOLY SHIT THIS AIRS TONIGHT?!

I was hyped when this series was first announced, after watching teasers I'm extremely hyped. True Detective getting great reviews is making me the hypest.

 

[MR BLACKMAGIK]

Brother Mouzone! Good to see some B-tier Wire characters making it to some new hit shows.

 

[bud]

i stand corrected.

One hour to go.

 

[Red_Man]

One hour to go.

 

[Fjordson]

Some of these reviews are glowing. But I must keep hype levels reasonable!

 

[~Kinggi~]

10 Minutes for hotness.

 

[Steelyuhas]

So close.

See you guys on the other side.

 

[Macattk15]

Lets go HBO Go. Update so I can watch!

 

[Cornballer]

Here we go!

 

[ezekial45]

The opening credits are fantastic. I wonder how it'll change with each season?

 

[Cornballer]

The music has been great so far. Love the look of this, as well. The material is very dense.

 

[~Kinggi~]

This is good, real good.

 

[BigWeather]

So much Treme goodness showing up!

Edit: Unless I am wrong about the coroner, but Big Chief was unmistakable. =)
Edit 2: Or not (IMDB doesn't list him)...
Edit 3: Ok, was him, of course. Stupid IMDB!

 

[Bloodrage]

Rustin's moment in the car holy fuck that was raw.

 

[blainethemono]

Had no idea Clarke Peters was going to show up in this

Cinematography has been on point so far. Very atmospheric

 

[lamaroo]

Steve the drunk!

 

[~Kinggi~]

Can already smell the Emmys

 

[tycoonheart]

Loved it. Loved it. Loved it!

Mcconaughey. So good.

 

[Cornballer]

That was quite good. I'll probably give it another look later this week to see if there's anything I didn't pick up on my first viewing. Looking forward to more.

 

[JHall]

Damn. That was good.

 

[kaskade]

Awesome show, I really can't wait to see where it goes.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

Wow. That was awesome.

 

[Matrix]

That was so good. Can't wait for the 2nd episode.

 

[BigWeather]

I love HBO shows -- such a nice, slow burn.

 

[lamaroo]

Good start, great cinematography.

 

[KHarvey16]

Yup, I'm in.

 

[ezekial45]

Fantastic. Can't wait till next episode.

 

[SpudBud]

That was fantastic.

- Sepinwall on the premiere episode
- Onion A|V Club review

 

[KdoubleA]

LOVED IT!

Also, the car conversation about Cohle's beliefs was hilarious.

 

[BuddyJoeHooker]

This was amazing, looking forward to more.

 

[Kos Luftar]

That was awesome.

Can't wait till next episode.

Is this just a mini series or will it have more than 1 season.

 

[Cornballer]

Is this just a mini series or will it have more than 1 season.

It's an anthology series, so there will be a new story and a new cast next season.

 

[Cornballer]

- EW on the premiere *some spoilers for later episodes*

 

[FTF]

Great first episode. Really looking forward to seeing where this goes. Love the slow burn a series like this has as opposed to a 2-3 hour movie.

 

[th3dude]

That was damn good. Like watching a really good movie. Did t want it to end. Can't wait to see more.

 

[shadyspace]

Jesus fuck that was good.

 

[Agnostic]

This is why I give HBO my money.

 

[jvm]

Staying away until the wife and I can watch together. She's not up for it, if it's too brutal (see: Deadwood, Boardwalk Empire) but she's intrigued by the premise.

Sounds like it was good. Can't wait!

 

[Mdot]

Man, that was fucking great. So pumped to see where this goes

 

[MormaPope]

Best HBO show in a long time, holy smokes that was excellent through and through. Layered characters, down to earth writing/dialog, excellent cinematography, insanely good performances.

Martin's face when Rust decided to stay for dinner was priceless.

 

[dave is ok]

Wow. That was a great first episode
