Terrible. I actually turned it off at one point to make sure it was coming from the TV I was watchingWhat did everyone think of the score during the mansion escape scene?

Velcoro felt the same after that lolI never want to see this kid ever again.
Walking up to the window, hearing the conversation, breaking in and stealing all the papers... that shit was like a video game circa 2004. This show sucks. I'm going to watch it till its over but holy cow, 2 more episodes to go
I think the problem with this season is that season 1, what with no one having any expectations for it, set the bar so high that there was no way season 2 could ever measure up.
I like how Stan's getting even more characterization now than when he was alive. It's reaching Austin Powers levels of hilarity.
One, it's just a theory.Gonna have to explain that to the audience straight up if that's the case. Seems way too convoluted to make sense due to the circumstances of the kids and all that. Cause that would assume he had something to do with the diamond robbery and their parents being executed. Seems a bit farfetched.
Also lol at the Lana Del Ray filter during Ani's flashbacks and the damn old Hollywood movie escape music.
Yes, as we already guessed four pages ago.Come on guys, the cop that gave the diamonds is totally [Lt. Burris].
Yep. This isn't a relative to season 1 thing. It's a dative to EVERYTHING situation. This season is just not good. Colin and Rachel wasting good acting in this..Or instead of going all 'meta' we use Occam's razor: this season sucks because it sucks in the absolute.
I can't see all these loose leads being tied up. Every villan just seems like a patsy with the big international corporation getting away with?...what ever it is they're planning.
Vaugh is consistently bad in all episodes so far. At least that's something he has going on for him.

OMG! Vaughns bad acting is secretly part of that character's personality!Remember when Pizzaman said he'd written a character even more complex and interesting than Rust?
lol
My bad, I totally missed that pageYes, as we already guessed four pages ago.
Yeah im of the opinion none of the over arcing plots matter at all and its more about how insignificant the mains are in the grand scheme. The cops will stop Birdman and a couple corrupt senior heads will roll frank loses Everything and the power he thinks he has means nothing at all. Ray already lost everything soon to include his life...probably. And the Catalyst machine keeps on winningI'm no expert on these things, but doesn't it seem that the "story" takes a back seat to character development? I don't know if it's by design, or because I don't give a damn about the plot, but it's almost force-fed it's so obvious.

How are we liking this in comparison to season 1? I haven't started season 2 yet, but I'm thinkin about it right now

haven't kept up with this thread, but we're all pretty much 99% sure that Blake is the father of Velcoro's kid right?
Season 2 of Twin Peaks is even worse than season 2 of True Detective. Season 2 of Twin Peaks is the worst shark jump I've ever seen, and is one of the worst seasons of television ever made. (Except for the last episode.)
Getting the guy who gave Vaughn's character the name of the dude who thought raped his wife.Didn't Ray agree to rejoin this whole mess to get some help keeping his kid? What incentive does he have to continue down this path when the only card they played to pull him back in is gone?
You are not wrong at all. That episode with the ferret was one of the worst things I've seen on TV coming from the greatness of Season 1 and the beginning of Season 2. However, I'm in the camp that the ending elevates Season 2 just a bit.
It also helps to skip those shit episodes.

He probably just wants to get killed too.

I watched season 1 and fucking fell in love with the show but stopped watching season 2 when. It got too dumb there and other stuff came up so I just stopped watching it.they thought they saw a UFO
I need to give it another chance and re-watch/finish the show.

Work the girls and the parties, and you work the diamonds, D.A. Davis tells Ani and Paul, reiterating the approach they settled on in the previous episode.
These retreads pad out the episode, making it feel longer than it is without adding anything. Athena warns Ani she wont be able to bring a phone or weapon into the secret party; another scene burns time while Ani relates that to Paul and Ray. Paul learns the details of the Sable Fine Jewelers heist first from a working detective, then from a retired cop. And this despite True Detectives tendency to cut to and away from conversations as they unfold. Plenty of repeated exposition could be elided in these cuts, but the show doesnt do it. Its plodding where it needs to be fleet and vague where it needs to be precise.

You know me man
You just didn't know
Just because they both have red hair?
