True Detective Seasons 2 and 3. Some people are so high on S1 they think S2 and S3 are bad. Both are perfectly fine neo noir shows. Obviously they won’t surpass S1 but they are good in their own right.
I was struggling to think of something but this is a very good shout (although I suppose it’s technically not the entire series, just some of the seasons from it). Even Season 4 was okay in it’s own way, it just wasn’t Season 1 again which is what a large chunk of the fanbase of that show seems to want and expect.
Season 4 was great! I think it excelled because it didn’t try to recreate the chemistry between the characters of s1. It did its own thing, and did it extremely well!

That line the lady gives in the last episode “So we decided to tell our own story.” Straight chills. The whole season was worth it for that one line.
First time I watched it I was positive that Rust was going to give them that same speech he does, and then the others walk away and Rust looks up into the night sky and he can see that spiral vortex that he saw in Carcosa, filling the heavens and reflected in his eyes.

I am so sick of hearing this bullshit.
S2, S3 and S$ were all just really bad shows.
How many prolonged conversations did the Vaughn and Reilly have about the nature of parenthood. Holy fuck it must have been three times?
How many times did we get so see Ferrall’s character pass out at the bar to the chic singing WTF she was singing.
Good do s2 was utter shit.

Season 4 kicks ass! It’s way better than 2 and 3. Do people not like it?

I thought it received pretty mixed reviews. Again, not sure how much of that was “Season 4 is bad” vs “Season 4 is not Season 1”.
We didn’t want season 1 again, we wanted something as good as season 1 again.
Season 1 of that show set an insanely high bar, it’s pretty close to perfect television. I try to avoid comparisons for that reason.
Except for the ending.
I know right? It lost a lot with that lacklustre finish.
First time I watched it I was positive that Rust was going to give them that same speech he does, and then the others walk away and Rust looks up into the night sky and he can see that spiral vortex that he saw in Carcosa, filling the heavens and reflected in his eyes.
Like, c’mon, it writes itself!
