New season starts this weekend. Should be interesting to see how it compares with the first season
I'm expecting not to like it quite as much as S1 but I imagine it'll still be better than most other TV shows on now/ever.
Just remembered that I watched the first episode of Sense8 last weekend but I was drunk and I've pretty much forgotten all that happened. It seemed like a show that could develop into something okay, but not something great.

True Detective was magical. I don't think this next season will be as good but I'm still gonna watch anyway.

Meh, I don't know. Don't give a shit about politics so that would be lame to me. However, a brutal as fuck Rachel McAdams having knife fits with criminals sounds badass as all hell.

Seen In Bruges?
This season is supposed to be about highway construction and the displacement of immigrants, I think, in southern California. Not sure it's in the same alley as Satanist Church goers and their pedophilia.
If it's In Bruges quality Colin Farrell, I'm in. If it's creepy/asshole Vince Vaughn, I'm in. Also looking forward to the storyline. Anything involving the freeways of Los Angeles, other than me being on them, tickles my pickle

What did you guys think about the first True Detective? Can't imagine where this story goes other than the search for Vera but definitely piqued my interest.

I hope Farrell doesn't stay in the corrupted cop path, might be a little too cliche for my taste..but then again Harrelson was pretty stereotypical.
But yeah that opening song wasn't too good on first listen haha

Yea the theme song is horrible.
I also want the season 1 director back.
And Rachel McAdams has a helluva booty

Colin Farrell beating the shit out of that kid's dad was pretty awesome. My main concern is they have this huge cast, so it's gonna be difficult to focus on the story AND get invested in the characters. Interesting to note that Woody Harrelson, Matthew McCounaghey and Cary Coji Fukunaga all stayed on as executive producers

He was supposed to direct the new IT adaptation but has since dropped, so I wonder if he missed the boat.

Watched True Detective season 2 Ep 1 again with subtitles and it made much more sense. It also helps if you read a little bit about the story of the city of Vernon that it's loosely based on http://articles.latimes.com/2010/sep/18/local/la-me-0919-fortress-vernon-20100918

Fucking yuck, what a douche. And the articles he references are even worse.
