True Detective: Tom went in to listen to the Cardinals game...in November. Mmmmmhmmmm... (1 Viewer)

[Quez]

For the first time, I really tuned out. It felt like stuff was happening in the second half, but I was busy doing other things to not fall asleep.

I flipped over to battlebots.

 

[Homer J Simpson]

Huh. Other than the horrible scenes between Vaughn and the walking snoozefest that is his wife, I think the show is picking up some serious steam.

 

[The Gator]

There's no bandwidth for that right now

 

[Jack White]

These family chats are brutal.

Frank and his wife . . . one of the worst scenes in recent television history.

Gay cop and his Lolita mom . . . ditto.

With Episode 5, this show has gone from bad to worse.

 

[Officer Pete Malloy]

I think this show has reached the point where I'm going to keep watching because I've come this far.

 

[Jack White]

I think this show has reached the point where I'm going to keep watching because I've come this far.

My girl said basically the same thing: "We're still going to keep watching it though, right?"

I guess so.

 

[Officer Pete Malloy]

The story line of VV and his Real Doll is riveting.

 

[Jack White]

The story line of VV and his Real Doll is riveting.

And HBO is stretching the definition of "brief" nudity.

My gf and I used to think like this too, but we have learned it is just not worth continuing to watch shows that turn to garbage. The only reason you are watching right now is because season 1 was good. Only watch stuff that you actually find entertaining, don't force yourself to watch shows that you know suck and know will continue to suck. Life is too short. If the reviews turn out good by end of the season (close to 0% chance), then go back and watch it the rest.

This ####### guy didn't think it would be a good idea to maybe spend that $20K? Just a hundo here, hundo there? Groceries, maybe buy a motorcycle with cash?

 

[Good Posting Judge]

Durp durp, just gonna put this big ####### bag of money up in this closet with my ex-whore Mom sitting around all day.

 

[Good Posting Judge]

Also what's with the updating theme song.

 

[Homer J Simpson]

Also what's with the updating theme song.

There's been a different 2nd verse every week I think. Found out last week it's a Leonard Cohen song.

I may have just honda'd myself on that little tidbit.

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

Durp durp, just gonna put this big ####### bag of money up in this closet with my ex-whore Mom sitting around all day.

For four years.

The horrid dialogue makes the average plot and telegraphed twists much much worse.

 

[Dan Lambskin]

What happened to Velcoris moustache?

 

[Otis]

You know what this means. Kaitlyn tells all tonight! Can't wait to see what she has to say to Ian!!

 

[Plorfu]

I've been skipping past the theme song since week 1 because I hate it. Have I made some kind of horrible mistake?

 

[Plorfu]

Don't answer that. It won't do any good.

Nevermind

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

I wonder what viewership is at this point vs season 1 and episode 1.

 

[shadyridr]

Yeah the scenes between VV and his wife are the absolute worst

 

[Capella]

The obvious new thread title change for this week:

"It's like blueballs in the heart"

somebody said that?

I might have to actually go watch now.

 

[Rick James]

Colin Farrell is the only interesting character in this show, and he can't save it.

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

When VV was talking about the adoption while in bed with his lady, I turned to my wife and finished his sentence with "what you said." The dialogue is just terrible. There MIGHT be an interesting story buried here somewhere, but these lines are just so distracting.

 

[Brady Marino]

Colin Farrell is the only interesting character in this show, and he can't save it.

Oddly, I only feel that way about McAdams.

 

[Capella]

Other than Poorly developed characters and piss poor writing this show is missing the Louisiana landscape IMO. Why take the series out of that setting to make another CSI in Los Angeles? Baffling.

They should have just done a series of True Detective stories in that creepy supernatural Louisiana world.

 

[Harry Manback]

What happened to Velcoris moustache?

Friction.

 

[Plorfu]

What happened to Velcoris moustache?

Friction.

They edited out the scene where they showed him cutting it off (slow motion) in the bathroom, lone light bulb dangling and flickering behind him in the mirror, while the camera panned slowly into the living room, settling on his copy of "Narcotics Anonymous."

 

[(HULK)]

Looks like the orgy party is next week. Stocked with 8s surgically enhanced into 10s.

 

[Otis]

Direct quote. I posted it right away because I had to make sure it was perfectly transcribed in here.

 

[tonydead]

At least there are only 3 episodes left.

 

[Dan Lambskin]

Have a feeling Bezzireeds is gonna have to go all the way at this sex party in order to get info or whatever

Sooner or latter she's gonna get all shabby with that boot knife too

This.

 

[eoMMan]

They could have least shown the breastees of VV's girl. They were already naked under the sheets.

Agreed.

 

[SIDA!]

We gave up on the series last night. Pretty sure it is a final decision...unless this orgy thing happens...and then I will be like..."hey, babe...there is nothing else on ...wanna catch up on True Detective?"

We were making a conscious decision to watch tv in bed last night and we just could not really find a reason to watch the show. Very disappointing considering how great the first season turned out. We were hooked during the first episode.

If this were the first season of True Detective...it may have been the first time a premium movie channel actually pulled a show from the air before it finished.

 

[Good Posting Judge]

This show is so bat#### that crazy bat#### stuff happens and you don't even notice it anymore. Like Blake and Osip inspecting whores like they're show-dogs.

 

[Notorious T.R.E.]

I like how Frank Semyon thinks "something" might be up with his #2 guy and then Velcoro follows and finds out that EVERY SINGLE PERSON SEMYON PARTNERS WITH are hanging out and doing ish.

 

[The Ref]

I hate to admit it, but it's starting to come together a little bit.

Even if it's not and the show continues to crash and burn the thread title changes have been $$ all season.

Oh, the orgy is happening, lots of leaks about it. Its supposed to put Eyes Wide Shut to shame.

Hey, he was a ####ing God warrior that day.

I'll be honest...I feel like I am trapped. If we watch last nights episode...just so I can get to the orgy next week...I am pot committed to the rest of the series.

I am starting to feel like watching an orgy might be a prison sentence...

I always thought that picture of Ray's wife's rape suspect didn't look much like his kid, so I could buy that maybe Ray really is the dad.

I hope they show him a picture of the real rape suspect, and it's some freckly guy with hair like Ronald McDonald, and he's like "oh, okay then."

 

[Officer Pete Malloy]

I'm no Woz but I'm not so sure a state's attorney (or whatever) can just go around deputizing any swinging **** she wants to.

"So far it's you three, an LA county lifeguard, a metermaid, a security guard from the Sherman Oaks Galeria, and some 17 year old who stopped by our booth on career day at East Bakersfield High last month..."
