Loved the original.

Someone watch this and let me know how scary it is before I dive in. I don't remember True Detective being scary

Season 2 was terrible on every front.
Nope. Not at all. It's just been cool to bag on it. It was decent at worst. Just had the misfortune of being compared to season 1. The shootout halfway through the season is as good as anything you'll find on tv.
I never thought it was as bad as people complained about. I thought Farrell and Kitsch were awesome. The drug party scene is still one of my favorite television sequences of all time.

Still no release date - only that it's "coming this year" - but considering production is wrapped, I'm hoping sometime this summer...

I didn't watch season 1 until just before 3 originally aired. I liked season 3 ok, but didn't love it so I never went back to watch season 2 since I had heard how bad it was. I finally went back and watched it and really liked it. A different vibe from the first season for sure but not the train wreck I had expected.

Season 2 was better than most on here think

Especially if you like Vince Vaughn spouting off obscure scrabble worthy words.

That scene literally ruined the entire season.

Meh, I'll give it one more episode to catch my interest, but that was a pretty boring episode.

I'm hooked. I've been in a tv drought. Can't wait for episode 2.

Not sure yet. I'm gonna be disappointed if the bad guys are an anti-global warming cabal instead of a legion of vampires

This show has produced one all-time great, one pretty good, and one turd in the punch bowl. The jury remains out.

After one episode...

Case/Mystery = Awesome/Intriguing

Setting = Very Cool (no pun intended)

Danvers (Jodie Foster) = Pretty Good

Navarro (Kali Reis) = Eh

Basically, anything involving the primary case, Danvers, or her right hand man, I was in. But anything involving Navarro, while not terrible, I just wanted to get back to the other stuff. Reis is a better actor than I was expecting, but man her character just isn't compelling at all. I know it's unfair to compare her to one of the greatest television characters of all time, but Rust Cohle was HAUNTED. And within ten minutes of meeting him, we understood his entire outlook/philosophy on existence. Conversely, Navarro is just… mopey/stoic. And I'm sorry, but a detective who really wants to solve cases, and "believes in God," aren't interesting character traits. They're just… facts.

Anyway, again, overall I'm in. There's a ton of potential here, I like the hints at a possible supernatural element (even if they don't ever fully go there), and the preview for the rest of the season is great. In particular, I'm looking forward to the addition of Christopher Eccleston, and then hopefully seeing John Hawkes in a more expanded role...

It was good but of course it's woke. Worried it would be after the trailer.

I think this will be a solid season. Love the callbacks to season 1.
