I noticed the spiral when Jodie Foster had all the pictures laid out too... shyt took on the shape of a spiral. They droppin tons of 'Yellow King' hints

Yea I think it's best if folks just forget S1 going into this and I actually think it's smart for the new showrunner to not just try and emulate it cause that will fail. However can't say that I'm onboard with this going full on supernatural (the early uses of CGI leads me to believe that there is a creature behind this).
Hard to not compare tho when they're already referencing S1 with the spiral.
they did a bunch of references to season 1 in season 3 and then it was all misdirection too, will probably be the same here
overall it was a decent episode if it gets too much into the supernatural shyt will piss me off tho
not that i even have a problem with supernatural shyt, i like the native american AMC show that has a lot of super natural stuff, but I always liked that season 1 may have teased some shyt, but kept it grounded in reality in the end.

One of my favorite movies is 'The Thing' so if it does end up taking on that kind of vibe, I won't hate it but I will understand why some will. I'd rather it continue to be a straight up detective show.
Yeah, I felt like one of the few who wasn’t so hyped when they brought that up during marketing. Like…just leave that behind, lol. Do your own thing.

The setting and acting was dope. Looks like they did a great job with the casting. They look like they are nailing this small town Alaska vibe.
If this reaches season 3 levels of entertainment I'll be fine with that. Season 2 is still a jumbled mess, so hopefully it's better than that.

I think the polar bear gotta be a prime suspect. He looked like he was out of fukks to give.

It's present day and the first season of True Dectuve takes place 90s into 2000’s
But there is an Easter egg from Rust in the first episode
nah i shouldn't have called you a bytch, i just don't like being labeled i just hate womenAnd now you're emotional about it.
the super cop character has been a trope on a lot of shows lately and it annoys me usually since most cops barely competent if you ever pay attention to true crime. most cops are bumbling fukks and the reason why crimes go unsolved or they convict the wrong people when they don't have a damn video or witness. they usually happen to make these characters women in the media i've watched in recent years too, so that's why i threw out mary sue, but maybe i should dial it back, don't wanna sound like the quartering.
anyway i probably jumped the gun with it, i enjoyed her performance as the episode went on.

2 had good casting but went nowhere.
3 had toxic black male behavior, so it was hated on because it had a black lead and he was toxic.
If he was a black or grizzly bearI think the polar bear gotta be a prime suspect. He looked like he was out of fukks to give.

She's definitely a competent detective but she had some noticeable flaws to me.... as did Rust honestly, he could never get out of his own way either.
A Mary Sue trope to me is more like Rey Skywalker where she was doing shyt that's never been done and more powerful than everyone right out the gate and always right and always finding the best in people and doing it all with very little training etc.
Those movies sucked.

I'm all in supernatural or creepy. The nighttime 24hrs is helping the vibe alot. I'll give the show more time for more suspenseful scenes.
