Things /tv/ tricked you into watching
>>
>i could've been different
>vinceposting
idk i'm still thinking about giving it a shot
>>
>>215073779
Don't bother
>>
>>215073675
I don't understand the people who say this was the best season
>>
>>215073931
It's just contrarians. This would have been a 6/10 season if it was some completely different show, as a True Detective season it's more of a 3/10.
>>
>>215073675
Just started watching the other night and love that Farell's character is such an unhinged piece of shit but the biggest reason I enjoyed the first season was watching Rust and Marty become friends, and I don't see it happening here with the way the first episode was all over the place.
>>
>>215073931
it's the only season that doesn't jump off a cliff with a retard ending
it's also the only one that avoids the reddit-tier supernatural teasing

>as a True Detective season it's more of a 3/10.
are you fucking retarded?
Season 3 and Season 4 exist, and according to you season 2 is a 3/10.

3/4ths of "True Detective" is fucking terrible and you use the name "True Detective" to mean some sort of superlative incomparably high quality show.

THREE FOURTHS OF THE FRANCHISE IS BAD.

>vinceposting
Easily the most high effort high reward thing to come out of this board in the last decade. I fucking love vinceposting. Shame I'm just a shade too stupid to actually pull it off
>>
>>215074018
Good points. Some people are more annoyed by those things than others are. But it avoids those problems by being a 90%-ordinary police procedural, which is boring for many TD fans.
>>
PIG with Nick Cage. I was promised kino, a fresh take on revenge movies, instead I got the dumbest shit I’ve ever seen.

I swear to god, in one scene he brings a man he only knew for a couple weeks to tears by telling him that the guy is failing his dreams by being involved in organized crime
>>
>>215074100
>TD fans
you mean like people who think season 3 is good even though it's a worse version of season 1?
or the people who pretend season 4 was even watchable?
Season 1 and 2 is what the show should be, but because of what you'd call "TD fans" hating how different season 2 was, we get plot retreads, trying to make a new rust and marty every time, and shit like rust's dad's ghost telling people where the non-supernatural but utterly ridiculous crime scene is located
>>
>>215073675
That shitty hulu horror movie "lowlifes," but I'm pretty sure it's just one guy obsessed with the dyke actress who spams her everywhere.
>>
Season 1 was lightning in a bottle that HBO understandably tried to capitalize on with further seasons but it just wasn't the same show. I wouldn't mind seasons 2 and 3 as much if they had a different title, but they just don't measure up. The shootout in season 2 that was obviously supposed to compare to the one track shot in season 1 was comical. Everything between the black cop and his wife in season 3 that tried to mimic the conflict between Marty and his wife was just irritating and a slog to watch.
>>
Are you faggots really going to use a thread where you could talk about anything to just repeatedly bitch about/defend True Detective because it’s in the OP?
Are you people bots?
>>
>>215073675
You're welcome.
>>215073931
It's way funnier, Farrell is great in it, it's a great subversion of the first season's neo-noir approach of conspiracy.
>>
I just really like big dicks.
>>
>>215074280
Caspere knew this
>>
>>215073675
it was great for the memes and watching with the anon bros. id have been upset if i watched it on my own.
>>
the only flaw in season 2 is whichever coomer in production that hired Peta Jensen to be a background whore in the upscale brothel sequence convinced her that she would be able to be some kind of real actress and she quit porn
>>
legitimately one of the worst series I've ever seen

>colin farrell was in two /tv/ scams
woah
>>
>>215074018
>it's the only season that doesn't jump off a cliff with a retard ending
So it should get bonus points for the plot being consistently retarded throughout?
>>
I only come to /tv/ to force discussions on shows I've liked since childhood. These retards have TERRIBLE taste. Never watch ANY of their reccs. They're all dumb as shit. I haven't watched a new show or movie in literal YEARS. I don't need any more of what I've got.
>>
>>215074352
Yeah. It's worse if a show is good and becomes retarded, than if a show is retarded the whole time.
>>
>>215074110
Oh man, I never thought I’d be reminded of this piece of shit movie again, but that definitely is my answer too.
Just so fucking terrible, all that movie showed me is that people (especially redditors) worship the “good” celebrities who are “le wholesome chungus” and want you to watch shitty movies because “le wholesome” actor is in it.
>>
>>215074368
>shows I've liked since childhood
we don't allow discussions of cartoons here
unless you're saying you're 22 right now and breaking bad was your favorite show when you were 11
>>
>>215073965
What do you think of it so far as a whole? I’ve been thinking on watching it for almost a year now
>>
>>215074018
Because starts retarded instead
>>
/tv/ said it was good.
They were wrong.
It was the greatest thing i have ever seen.

Any "based" conservaslop not directed by Clint Eastwood to be honest, though even he oscillates wildly in terms of quality.
>>
>>215074409
I only like blues Brothers, the Sting, Columbo, psych, twilight zone, and gunsmoke
