[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn’t mind it. It’s a television show. Junk food for the mind. It’s not meant to be realistic or believable. It was good enough to tune in every week. They’ll never match season one and that’s ok. [/quote]

True Detective went from being a high quality artistic show to low quality junk. I don’t mind watching junk, I like the Housewives series. BUT I expected high quality in writing, directing, cinematography and acting from the True Detective name. This season didn’t deliver on any of that, hence the major disappointment. The writing especially was horrible.

It’s like buying a Chanel bag at an high end department store and finding out it’s a fake you could have purchased in Chinatown. I would be livid if I were Nic Pizzolatto. Hell, I’m livid as just a spectator.[/quote]

Yeah honey, you’re definitely overthinking it. And it was not that bad  [/quote]

No, no overthinking going on. I got a bait and switch. I thought I was in for a high quality detective series (which all three of the previous seasons were), but I got Netflix/CW quality junk. I won’t bother watching any of the next season because I don’t like being tricked and expect a little respect as a viewer. [/quote]

I'll probably watch the next season, at least initially.  Hopefully it will have a better plot and dialogue than this one.  It's not a continuation of the same story though, is it?  Please, no.[/quote]
