True Detective Season 1 (NO SPOILERS)

[VicMackey415]

Im at work right now and I think Im about to watch all four episodes together and let the greatness HBO has blessed us with wash over me.
MM got that GOAT threshold for drugs my goodness. I think we can all agree he takes "Turn up" to levels we wont be able to reach this lifetime, all the while being hella coherent.

Last episode was garbage

Marty's argument with Maggie and then the random sex scene

Maggie hooking Rust up with her friend

Marty causing a scene in Lisa house with her bf

Tired of all these bullshyt cliffhangers at the end of the episode leading to nothing in the next.

The story needs to pick the fuk up in the next episode or Im done with this show.

This last episode was MUCH MUCH better

Is it a coincidence that Maggie and Lisa got less screen time in this episode and the fact that it was better? Hell naw

These two ruin the show for me. Hopefully this will be the end of Lisa's character for the foreseeable future.

As a matter of fact, I dont want to see any females on this show unless they are murder victims.

i think rust and marty, more so rust, know they didnt get the right guy, or at least everyone involved. i say that only cuz at the end of episode 1 when he says how could it be the guy if they caught em in 95 and goes

rust: "how indeed.."

cops: "i figured you would be the one to know"

rust: "then start asking the right fukking questions"

pretty much saying theres more to the story than what was documented and maybe hoping these new cops would catch on but it seems they think hes the one who did the murder judging by the preview for next week.

Yup. I think they arrested the wrong man to cover for the governor, possibly.

Yeah, it seems the governor might be a part of the cult, hence his efforts to bury the case. I think he and the mayor might end up pushing Marty to frame Reggie Ledoux for the whole ordeal (he's obviously involved somehow) with the angle that he already lost his family so he should start thinking about whether he wants to lose his job as well. Rust probably knows but allows it, his diminishing faith however turned him into the hobo he is today.

What makes you think it's the governor? The governor's brother would seem to be more likely but I think after reading what the writer said about "no left-field" ending, I don't think it would be either.

Either/or, really. I just recall them possibly saying they were going to replace Cohle & Hart with the Anti-Christian crime unit. What better way to cover up their own tracks?

I don't know about that. Seems like flimsy evidence. I don't rule it out but to me as a viewer it would be kind of "cartoony". We'll see I guess.

You nikka really figured out the story huh? We still got 4 more episodes to go. How about we just enjoy the show?

 

[Food Mane]

I agree with all my television brehs that a focus on absurd twists isn't the way to watch a show. But, timeout my dudes! We are a watching a show filled with deliberate misdirection. We are forced to constantly evaluate the veracity of what we are seeing:

Is 2013 Rust telling the truth?
Is 1993 Rust telling the truth?
Is 2013 Marty telling the truth?
Is 1993 Rust telling the truth?

When we see certain scenes they are obviously directly what Rust or Marty is telling the two cops (the show's first scene for example), but some other scenes are Marty's memories (kicking down his jumpoff door), Rust's memories (sniffing coke with bikers) that the cops clearly don't know about. How much can we trust those memories? They can be distorted or they can be outright fiction. I don't really care what the writer says in interviews, he is playing a bit of Usual Suspects with us.

And I'm staying the fukk outta this thread so none of y'all guess right and ruin this shyt

We're just speculating, breh. I didn't say I was completely right or know what's going to happen, just my theory. Calm down

 

[Nature Boy Ric Flair]

A-fukkING-MEN! Cats really have been abused for the last two decades where figuring out some cheap twist carries precedence over acting, cinematography and writing.
I honestly don't give a fukk who the killer is. The journey from 1995 to present day is much more compelling than a run of the mill whodunit

MY nikka @obarth YOU NEED TO GET THOSE GOD DAMN REVIEWS GOING FOR THIS shyt BREH

THE COLI NEEDS YOUR GENIUS WRITING SKILLS WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[Food Mane]

Kinda confused about how Marty was able to get to Rust so fast. I been up all day so I'm assuming I missed a line or short scene to explain it?

Fred.

That's another reason I think Marty was up to something. It didn't really make any sense. After he saw Rust going down the bayou he immediately drove to a location within 90 seconds of the project where the home invasion would be happening :obarth:

i agree.. we been starving.. lord @obarth we cannot wait til april when GOT starts. feed us

 

[DopeMan]

Ive been thinking of something lately. Im not sure if anyone has already brought this up.

But there is a possibility that the interrogation would not lead to the real killer being revealed.

I could see Rust and Marty working together once more to finally solve the case in the last few episodes.
