If they do it, it better be fresh.

It seems like S1 & S3 shared the same inspirations, If S4 happens, it should be something completely new and different.

They need to do a different time period. Do old England before fingerprints, computers, etc. Let the fog and overall gloom of London be the backdrop.

They will never ever top season 1, just move on!

Why even call that "True Detective", though?
IMO each season should be at least as connected to each other as each season of Fargo, i.e. at least at an "easter egg" level.

Why do they have to be connected? The first three seasons have absolutely no connection at all. It’s an anthology. They could do any period of time they’d like. They just have to be creative.

Its been a while since the last update, but HBO still plans for the show to return.

‘True Detective’, ‘Mare Of Easttown’ & ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’ Future? – Deadline

These are the thoughts of HBO and HBO Max Chief Content Officer Casey Bloys.

Deadline reported last year that HBO was looking for new voices to help bring back True Detective,which was created and written by Nic Pizzolatto and ran for three seasons between 2014-2019.

We understand that the network has been in talks with writers and producers, and Bloys is hopeful. “There’s something in the True Detective area, there’s things we’re feeling good about. I would say stay tuned on that one,” he said.

Mare should've been season 4.

The actors matter more than the writers. Matt and Woody carried season 1. Mahershala and Dorff carried season 3. Season 2 was bad cause Colin and Vince don't have acting chops like that.

ehhhh... season 2 just need more time in the oven. too many ideas, some of which should have been saved for a different season.

Season 2 writing was just ass. Colin did fine and Vince actually did a good job even though everyone expected him to be ass.

Szn 1- 10/10
Szn 2- 7/10
Szn 3- 8.5/10

Nah, season 2 was a great cast. Trash writing destroyed that season.

Mare should've been season 4.

100% agree
