I will say that Rachel McAdams' character is much better than I expected.

This has got to be the worst show I've watched in years. The acting is horrendous and I have no clue what's going on other than, Vaughn's character needs money, and says stupid cheesy shitty lines like " Somebody hit the warped drive and I'm trying to navigate thru the blur". I find myself fighting to keep my eyes open bc all I wanna do when it's on is nap. Tragedy. I loved the first season.

I'm a couple of episodes behind. Has Justin Lin directed all the eps so far?

Should of cut out Kitsch character. He really brings nothing to the narrative so far other then to be the fetch monkey it seems.
Another problem is the setting. We have seen LA a million times already so the setting can't be its own character. Compare to the bayous and sugar cane fields in season one. An omnipresent source of menace and mystery that hide monsters. |

the first half of this episode hit rock bottom for the season. JFC Vince Vaugn and his wife scenes are death. Also, the courts could give a **** legally about Colin Ferrell being a biological father or not. Legally he is his father.
The gay cop is so cliched it drives me crazy. Atleast the last half got better. Finally making progress. Vince lied to Colin about the rapist. they find that shack. |

That's what's suffering the most. This season is revenge of the spaghetti monster because they have so many plots tangled, heading in their own direction, but seemingly end up going nowhere.
What again was the point of involving Casper's secretary exactly? Enough so to randomly run into her at the movie filming location? Dixon? Just a few examples of how necessary a fresh set of eyes and script revisions could have made a lot of difference. Quote:
The only part I liked was when it was first mentioned the time period was going to be the old golden age days of Hollywood. Yes, that's anything but new, I know, but I just have a personal affinity for movies set in that time period. |

Ouch. Such a great list of the all the extraneous crap that the writer threw into this shitfest.

Only thing I remotely care about is Farrell's character...now that he was setup by Frank I'm hoping something interesting happens the last 3 EPs.

I am really annoyed that this show had a good half episode and now everyone on r/truedetective is calling it as good as season 1. not by a long shot.
