Is there any public word on why they were so keen on getting a second season of the show out a year after the first, when it's completely disconnected?

Given the anthology format, and HBO in the past seemingly being okay with some series releasing on a "when it's done" schedule, I don't know why (aside from the obvious "money" answer) they didn't give the second season more time. If we get a third season I'm hopeful they'll take a more measured approach to the production.

i mean it honestly seems like Pizza the Hutt is fine/proud with what is being made so don't really see why he wouldn't release it if it's ready and to get the hype wave of S1.

 

[HIGH DEF JEFF]

You got it all wrong, the shootout is amazing. They had Navy SEAL experts on the shoot to make sure it was 100% authentic !

(Check out Pizzolatto who is so cool he's got to wear shades while being interviewed)

Unintentional comedy when Pizza Boy says they have to make the action scenes authentic then they cut to a machine gun spraying mad man hanging out of a factory window.

Kind of tied in with the "money" answer, but yeah. I hope they see the (I think) overwhelmingly negative response to this season and think out season three, if it happens (I expect it will).

[jond76]

Hyped for tonight. This is the first thing I watch when I get home from work out of the pile of stuff that airs on Sunday.

 

[PhoenixDark]

This show is rapidly falling out of my "watch during it's TV time" list and into the "watch...sometime before the next episode airs" barrel. Second ep was really good but since then...eh. Bad dialogue delivered poorly, and characters that simply have no interesting qualities. Nor is there any chemistry amongst the main cast. It's just "x delivers his dialogue" and "y delivers her dialogue" before driving off somewhere.

Might have to catch this tomorrow. Evo SF4 finals takes priority I think.

 

[Zoned]

HBO now on browser is absolute shit. They haven't fixed this goddamn awful player in months. Stutters like shit. Shit ton of complaints on Facebook, twitter, reddit etc and still nothing. And then they wonder why people don't pay for the content.

 

[Grinchy]

I can't wait to hate tonight's episode!

 

[Insane Metal]

I can't wait to hate tonight's episode!

Seriously, I thought last week's episode was ok. The shootout scene is ass and all but I thought the stories are starting to get interesting. Let's see what happens tonight.

I wait the moment the Mayor screams:

"My dougsss are auwgry, ppuitty theres is only one of you"

 

[Saucycarpdog]

Let's check the stats so far:

Serial killer: 2
Cartel: 30+

Why are caring about this serial killer again?

Is there a reason why people make fun of Pizzolatto's name as if they're 5th graders?

Sorry bro. We aren't as sophisticated as you.
Let me guess, you've also never even had a cavity have you?

 

[Guzim]

HOLY SHIT, that's him isnt it? HAHAHAHAHAA

Haha, yep.

 

[brianmcdoogle]

Is there a reason why people make fun of Pizzolatto's name as if they're 5th graders?

Probably because they can't spell it. And to tease him. I dunno.

 

[Serpico99]

Lets now see if the second half improves...

It is affectionate.

At least it was last season lol

 

[Hasphat'sAnts]

Time jump!

Yeah, we were calling him Pizzaman during the first season.

Velcoro went to work for Frank it looks like.

Look at you Mr. Mature I bet you only make the finest of jokes all the time. It's not rocket science, it's just fun to fuck with the name. Like with Shyamalan's

Feels like the real season is starting.

the random dead guy, right?

 

[Sifl]

He hid his money in his moms house for 4 years?

 

[Hasphat'sAnts]

Who the fuck is stan

The construction dude Frank shook down two episodes ago.

 

[Catdaddy]

Paulie an insurance detective now? He's Cole Phelps from LA Noire

 

[Hasphat'sAnts]

Those two deserve each other.

 

[cLOUDo]

the only mystery i want to know is who kill Stan

 

[the_firewithin]

Paulie an insurance detective now? He's Cole Phelps from LA Noire

Lol

 

[Hasphat'sAnts]

That line was so grim dark serious it made me puke in my mouth a little bit.

 

[lamaroo]

Much better looking episode so far.

 

[Sifl]

That gangster line made me cringe pretty hard.

 

[sangreal]

That wasn't Stan -- I rewatched that scene like 3 times and he never says that guys name. Also they don't look the same at all if you compare them side by side

Stan just seems to be one of Frank's henchmen. I dont know if they even mentioned his name before they killed him off

 

[Robot Pants]

Feels like the real season is starting.

.

Were the directors of the last two episodes just that fuckin bad?
This seems like a totally different show. Some pretty bad one-liners still but this music is fucking MEAN. I love it

O yeah you're right. Stan, what a guy.

 

[Hibiki Kurosawa]

MVPs this season are Colin Farrell and Rachel McAdams. I'm not really feeling Vince Vaugn so much, but he's not bad, however Taylor Kitsch is just not working for me. The scene where he's cursing on the side of the street (when he realizes his bike is gone) sounded awkward and forced.

 

[lamaroo]

Vince Vaughn makes the same face every time he talks.
