Did they ever explain why she is messed up? Does this have Anything to do with the story at all? I must have missed the connection. Thanks.

Best episode of the season (ep 4 right?) unfortunately. Episodes 1-4 are incredible television... the rest, eh not so much.

Finally finished Season 2 of True Detective.

It really pales in comparison to Season 1. I felt it had a very weak plot to start and they kept adding a lot of personal crisis with the characters to build up drama. Pretty weak writing throughout with a big shoot-em-up scene to try and wake up viewers dozing off after another long Vince Vaughn soliloquy. Poor ending to a very average show.

Not sure if they should try a Season 3- it has been all downhill since halfway through the first year. MM exceptional acting saved Season 1 IMO.

I would say Eps 1-7 of Season 1 are pretty solid.

That finale was a great lead in to Season 2. It turned a pretty impressive mystery into CSI:Backwoods.

One has to wonder how much Cary's involvement brought Season 1 to life.

Sensational news! LOVED Season 1, and thought Season 2 was alright (in Season 2 , they tried to stuff way too much stuff in 8 episodes). Hopefully the writer has learned and will take his sweet time with Season 3. Can't wait for this

Great actor. He was superb in Moonlight as well

Will Daddario be back? I really would like to know what Lisa the prosecutor has been up to.

That's more interesting to me than Ali's great acting in a well-written role...

Now you are being silly. Ali is a good actor, that he is black shouldn't matter one bit. True Detective was always going to have different actors with each season being a self contained story.

I mean while all of the protagonists in True Detective have been white, so have been all of bad guys beside the Latinos that Frank pissed off.

They haven't even started casting yet? The second season was filming like three years ago

The second season was disappointing enough and the strife between Pizzolato and Cary Fukunaga didn't exactly generate a pressing need for an additional installment two years ago.

More moronic shit from a ****ing know nothing moron.

Fukunaga had ZERO to do with Season Two. He didn't direct a single episode and was an EP in name only.

****tard.
