Default "True Detective"
Anyone watching this? Thoughts?

McConaughey is amazing, both in the "flashback" and present day. Harrelson is on the road to a meltdown. I am loving the show so far, as much or maybe more than "The Bridge".

I'm really loving this show as well. I even like the concept of new actors for every new season. A concept like that means HBO can attract more heavy hitter actors without holding them down to a popular tv show when they'd rather be pursuing movies. With how great this season has been I can only imagine who they'll attract for next season.

Three episodes in, Carlos, and they are off a week for Super Bowl Sunday, they are running all 3 throughout the 2 weeks on HBO.

ok, so Im good .

I am seeing it in Mexico, latin HBO, but it looks like it is on par to the US as it was the 3rd episode too.

I'll try to catch the first two on these weeks if the re-run them.

Very good show. McConaughey is amazingly weird and trippy. Slow burning show but I love how it's unlike anything out there on TV.

Love the setting, music and esp. McConnaughey. Woody is good but a goof. McC is great as a spook cop.

Looks like the story may be completely new each season?

I watched episode 1 this weekend and thought it was great! Unfortunately, episode two is not on demand. They have episode one and skip to episode three. WTF?

This show is the best show on TV at the moment. Amazing acting and the storyline is excellent. Hate to see it only get 8 episodes. 1 left. McConaughey is classic in this role.

Great show! I'm glad something is out to fill the gap between Boardwalk Empire and Game of Thrones. HBO has some if the best shows on tv.

One of the best shows I've seen. Last episode was a little lack luster but I love everything about this show.

Sorry to see it end soon. Hopefully they will get some great actors for Season 2.
