TRUE DETECTIVE on hbo - matthew mcconaughey, woody harrelson, michelle monaghan, fukunaga, pizzolatto

Probably because I clicked on this thread or maybe because I googled True Detective, but now I'm getting served all these news stories claiming it is a direct sequel to season 1. So ... watch this one first and if we like it go back to season 1?

The first season is a great, iconic season of television, although sh wometimes it's a bit annoying, and parts of it are Very Silly Indeed. Woody and Matty are fantastic; the writing for the female characters absolutely bites. Either way, it's definitely a good time.

I'm guessing the new season has resonances to the first but isn't a direct continuation.

I full-tilt adored S1, masterful writing, directing, acting, everything. I can't get my bf to re-watch it because he hates Matt McC and cares not for Woody H

Watching the first episode - we’re off to a great start

Season 4 specifically

should i start a S4 thread since we have one for each of the others?

Sure!

ok here it is
