re: True Detective Season 2 Ep. 2: Night Finds You

I enjoyed the second episode and really don't understand the over-the-top bitching in regards to the pacing of this series.
Really the first season left it in a lose-lose situation. People wanted it to be just like Season 1, but then would bitch that it was too similar. On the other hand, they bitch because it is too different.
All I can say, with any good story telling, it takes time to craft characters that are well developed and interesting. You have your occasional shows that gran you immediately, but some are a slow burn with mighty payoff. These are the shows you rewatch again and appreciate the story telling.
And my money would be rubber bullets or bird shot for Colin Ferrell to send him some kind of warning. If they were looking to kill him, that shotgun would have ended up point blank in his face.

shite. That's pretty impressive if accurate. Now have to go re-watch the ending to Ep2.

And if that theory isn't correct, slopes will be out for blood

I know one fricking thing....Reddit interface fricking sucks
Posted on 6/30/15 at 9:32 am to rondo
And everyone acts like it's the greatest frickin thing. I hate it

it's actually pretty good, IMO. this site's interface is great, pretty much perfect, for the traffic it gets. but in big OT or MSB threads, the shite gets cluttered so fast. it's nice to have one comment get moved up above others and allow people to reply through that. and as a user, you have a lot of control over how many comments pop up and why they pop up.
again, i prefer this site but it has more to do with the amount of people.

Ani said 2 people committed suicide, 2 people in jail, out of the 5 that were kids growing up in the Good People place. Then her partner said a phone call went to the missing Mexican girl from Guernville (that's the town with Ani's dad's hippie institute). Definitely setting up for serious sex slave/trafficking shite. That ties into Ani's sex issues, and could put Caspere's perverted arse (and his shrink) right in the middle of it too.
Also, the mayor is blatantly dirty as frick. I think he knows what's going on and just DGAF.

naw...then shite gets out of sequence.
I like how on this site you see who a person responded to and can click on their name and trace out that conversation if you need to.

Shotgun was post mortem bruh.
More proof the naysayers need to watch again.
I"m not a naysayer, I've been very realistic about this season. But yeah perhaps I wasn't paying as much attention as I should have ha.

i love that feature on here. i don't want to derail this thread too much, but i guess i use Reddit more for entertainment than conversational purposes, so i guess that's why i don't mind their format.
but anyway, i watched the episode last night. i was bored and found it hard to keep track of all the stories. i can't imagine CF's character coming back from that, but i'll give it time.

I don't mind the criticism but I think it's pathetic how people are literally jumping to shite on the show within minutes of it starting. When you're looking for reasons for something to suck you'll likely find them.

Exactly. If you're already at that level after an episode, you're never going to let yourself like the show so just stop watching

They're not though is the worst part.
Guarantee not a single person actually "jumped ship", they're just being overly emotional, impatient nit wits.
They all will finish the season, you can bet your arse.

But when it turns to "THIS IS frickING SO LAME AND CLICHE TERRIBLE OMGGGGG" after 2 minutes of airtime, it's just ridiculous
Just very very beta by some people in here.

What does everyone think about that theory?
I think it may have something but why would he need to take two shotgun blasts to fake his death?
And why would the dude need to be wearing the mask if it was staged?

I don't buy into that. If you think logically it makes no sense.
I think someone is sending a message to him\VV..nothing more
