Rust should be in the FBI not some backwards ass Louisiana State Police.

He could be, but there is no homicide division in the FBI, the closest he would come to working a homicide is as a profiler.

He can only assist in tracking killers, he won't be in the field like that, only local law enforcement will be doing anything on the ground such as arrests and gathering evidence. He would do a write-up (profile) and send it to local law enforcement from headquarters most of the time.

I don't see him wanting to be that far away from the action. But I can see his way of thinking welcomed into the FBI.

He's a little off which the CIA appreciates more, but some of the documentaries I've seen on the FBI showcased people with his similar personalty traits getting things done. Especially in organized crime and the Behavioral Science Unit.

Alright saw the first episode,:ohlawd:. You can tell already it has potential for greatness. I am not going to lie I was going to be all GOAT, but you nikkas brought me down to earth. Matthew Mohangey the gawd:lawd:

Is he trying for the EGOT?:dahell: He definitely going to be nominated come next September, maybe even win. Up against Bryan Cranston, another gawd:lawd:

First episode was amazing IMO. Just like that first episode of The Shield, it simultaneously left you wanting more but also you feel like it could end after one episode and you'd still be cool with it... 10/10

Just some random observations and thoughts on the first episode:

-I can't recall watching a series premiere that fleshed out the main characters as well as this one did, but still leave a ton of stuff to find out
-Cinematography was great
-Dialog driven, but it seems like it'll be rewarding to pay attention to all the details (for the timelines especially)
-Martin Hart (WH's character) appears to be a contradictory person
-He mentions not jumping to conclusions at the murder scene to Rust, but he himself does so throughout the entire episode
-In the interviews Martin implies that he values family when talking about his old partner, but he has a mistress
-Martin assumes that Rust is a man of faith because of the cross over his bed, but is mistaken (contradicting his line about not making conclusions)
-We know that Rust is an alcoholic and in his terms a "realist"
-Rust doesn't seem to have any 'lie' in him. I'm guessing he won't sugar coat anything the entire series
-He looks like the kind of guy that really will leave no stone un-turned... one of those, "everybody's a suspect" types
-I think that Martin will learn a lot from how Rust approaches his cases

Can't wait for the next episode.

I'm sure there's more I could of went into but just wanted to drop a few thoughts. That was dope way of starting off a show, because it really did a lot for the character development from the jump, and a lot of shows literally take seasons for some characters to be detailed and delved into like this here.

What stood out the most to me was Hart's reaction to the stuff Cohle was saying in the car. Like he wasn't just taken aback by it, he was absolutely disgusted by it. In everything it seems Hart is extremely judgmental (to the point his wife already knows Cohle better after talking to him for only five minutes) and trying to be part of the 'pack', whereas Cohle is a straight arrow who has no pretensions and keeps it real.
