Rachel 😍

 

[E the Shaggy]

Mulholland Drive? Uh oh. Creepy shit incoming.

 

[BlueTsunami]

Codependency of interests

Criminal syndicate, awwww yissss

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

McAdam's makes me proud to be canadian.

 

[Baldwin_the_First]

You're right.

Since we're eight minutes in, I can't judge one fucking moment that happened...

Oh, wait.

It's just really unpleasant to read when following live the show and reading criticism over criticism from the same guy. We get it, you don't think it will live up to the first season, but you could tone it down a bit for the people who actually want to give it a chance and enjoy it.

 

[spyder_ur]

This dude looks really familiar. Anyone else?

Rachel looking good.

 

[sangreal]

lol fail


is blue hair her sister or something?

e: yes

 

[Squalor]

Wow, police failed so hard, hahaha.

That was convenient.

 

[styl3s]

Rachel looking good.

It looked like the guy from Nikita and Idol Hands.. Something Sawa?

EDIT. According to IMDB it's Riley Smith. Looks an awful lot like that Idol Hands dude though.

Devon Sawa?

Yeah that's who i thought it was but it's Riley Smith.

He played that kid who smuggled the drugs in 24 season 3. I think that's where i was remembering him from.

 

[itwasTuesday]

Rachel McAdams, you can't be not cute no matter how badass you try to be.

 

[Palpable]

didn't batman say that?

Google came up with only True Detective. I think Batman said something along the lines of "Gotham got the hero it deserves" or whatever.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

It looked like the guy from Nikita and Idol Hands.. Something Sawa?

Devin Sawa?

 

[lamaroo]

I guess he said no

 

[sangreal]

I wonder if he at least took the bj

 

[Euron]

Sarcasm aside Rachel McAdams has easily been the best so far.

 

[lamaroo]

Dan Dority!

 

[Hasphat'sAnts]

C'mon Riggins.

Ha, that's a deep cut but I remember that. Probably was just in my mind though.

 

[E the Shaggy]

The fuck? Tiny woman in a bowl of milk??

 

[Squalor]

"Sure it is. We're the police."

Haha.

That naked doll in milk, though.

 

[Gattsu25]

Pick locks == rogue cop

That characterization.

 

[Future PhaZe]

ya im bored

how do you not just start with a sinister ass murder from jump

 

[Squalor]

They started with the unsolved rape of Ray Velcoro's (Colin Farrell) wife, though.

The problem is the characters and tone are off so far.

it is all over the place so far, but I expect everything to come together eventually. How many episodes did the critics get? 4?

 

[Hasphat'sAnts]

Such a missed opportunity this dude's name's not Velcro.

They got three.

 

[Tesseract]

how are y'all commenting and watching?

 

[Magnus]

New viewer to True Detective here. I know it's an Anthology series that's starting fresh, but I'm really lost. I can't figure out much of what's going on. Haven't felt this stupid watching a new show in awhile.

This felt like it needed a better hook a bit faster.... most folks watching with me are losing interest quick.

 

[E the Shaggy]

Rachel McAdams is the best part so far.

 

[Future PhaZe]

Vaughn probably should have been pulling fingers off from jump and actually had a look that wasn't the same shit he's been rocking for two decades now

i'm just not buying what he's selling

 

[BlackGhost]

how are y'all commenting and watching?

How are you commenting and watching?

 

[styl3s]

Is that Project Spark?

 

[Archer]

Texas Forever, in for my boy riggins and colin farrell (and the last season too of course)

that set of directors feels kinda wasteman though. wasn't william friedkin rumored to direct some of these?

i like Miami Vice more than No Country for Old Men tbh. Miami Vice is best case scenario for this season for me, i don't think it will be on that level.

Inside Llewyn Davis is the best of the 00s coens movies tho anyways.

Is this with watching?

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

Pickin locks. Drinkin drank. This guy is rough around the edges alright.

Not that I'm lost, but this is really scattered so far.

One of season one's strengths was how insular everything was.

I swear to god if everything winds up connected in some way, I'm going to freak. Don't do it, Pizzolatto.

 

[Future PhaZe]

Rachel McAdams is the best part so far.

pandering to cliches from the go though

first introduction of her had to be some sexual shit and then an immediate attempt to make her appear badass

not a fan

show needs more kitsch

 

[Hasphat'sAnts]

Mmmm.

Real estate schemes. My favorite Sunday TV convention.

 

[Squalor]

Her fucking name is Antigone Bezzerides. Hahaha.

Nick, stop.

 

[Future PhaZe]

slapping in the fucking face with the exposition goddamn

Yeah, one thing I don't like about this opening is the focus on four major character stories as opposed to two in the first season.

 

[the_firewithin]

Rachel has a good life huh

 

[Hasphat'sAnts]

ROGUE COP!

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

hahahahhahahaha

 

[styl3s]

ROGUE COP!

Makes Vic Mackey look like a goddamn teletubby.

 

[Squalor]

Clearly, Ray Velcoro is not the father, hahaha.

 

[BlackGhost]

Kill aspen... Do it...

 

[Future PhaZe]

kid got his lebrons stolen

easily the most interesting part of the show 40 minutes in

 

[sangreal]

colin farrel is martin riggs

 

[itwasTuesday]

Aspen gon die

no more skiing for you son
