You've got to be fricking kidding me.

Yea I didn't say that at all. I was commenting on why they bought back the same showrunner.

3 was OK
1 got even better on rewatches for me
First run through i thought it lost steam episodes 6-8. I now appreciate those episodes more.

Season 4 was so damn bad. It disgraced the franchise. S1 is obviously an all timer and the best by far, but S3 was solid, and I can appreciate S2 a little bit for what it is. It had the hard task of following S1 and on a rewatch years later I thought it was fine.
S4 was a fricking joke.
And of course they hire the same woman to do S5.
I don't have heartburn about the cast. Cage has chops when put in the right script/role. Banderas is fine too. But this woman is going to churn out more crap.

Acting wise, AB is terrible, just like his ex old lady Melanie Griffith.

I think season 3 gets some flack because there was no resolution (that's life), which is understandable because people desire resolutions in a movie/series. The acting was the best of the four imo though. Season 1 has the best story by far.

I'll wait for reviews to come out after all episodes are released. I have never been more pissed off finishing a season of a show as I was after season 4. frick everyone responsible for making that abomination.

Season 4 was historically bad
Nah, you're just a misogynistic, queer-hating racist. It was amazing.
/s
But for real, if the same show runner is involved, that's a hard no from me. Season 4, or the three or four episodes I stuck with it for, was a steaming pile of garbage. I don't know how it ended. I don't care how it ended.

Oh. Well in that case I guess gangam style is one of the greatest songs ever written in human history.
Season 4 sucked balls and shoehorned untalented actors, woke themes, and laughably eye-rolling callbacks into a convulted mess of a shitpile then slapped the TD moniker on it to generate eyeballs. I said it before and will say again, I don't think it would have gotten NEARLY the hate it did if they had simply not tried to tie it to True Detective. If it was just a standalone venture totally on its own called Night Country or Alaska Wild or whatever the frick, I think people would have just kinda shrugged their shoulders at it, or hell maybe even have enjoyed it more. But trying to call it a season of true detective was fricked and now they're doing it agian!
Season 1 of TD was an all timer. 2 was not great, and 3 was really damn good. I hate watched 4 just because, but i have less than zero interest in watching a single second of this knowing who is responsible for it. It will be yet another steaming pile of shite.

he clarified in a follow up most that he jsut meant "only numbers matter" when it came to the selection of the showrunner.

Some people will respond to the 2nd post of a 10 page thread and wonder why they're far off in context.

Which isn't really apples to apples with responding to a post near the bottom of page 2 in a 3 page thread. But yes I see.

S1 was great, S2 was meh, S3 was okay, S4 lost me after 30 minutes. I'll give S5 a shot but it better be fricking good
