Man y'all need to stop with the "Amelia did it" shyt 
If she did anything, she probably fukked up the investigation/public perception with her book.
Secondly, theres been nothing to indicate that Hayes did anything to his daughter other then neglect her. I also think its unlikely she's dead, because I don't think the family would lie in front of their kids.
two episodes in, Im pretty sure we know almost nothing about the crime. But we know a lot more about the theme and general tone, which can help us predict how the events will unfold. Hayes is a very passive and withdrawn character, kind of the opposite of Russ - he aint going to solve this case, and he may end up hurting it more then helping it. We've already seen him surrender - he talks about putting on the suit w/o question because 'he might be too chickenshyt', and we've also seen him allow the investigative team to put the doll clue on the news with minimal resistance.
I found it a lil off-putting that in the crucial deposition, the interviewers are the ones who possess new information, and not Hayes. Compare that with season 1, where the detectives are trying to find out what Russ knows, just going off of a vague copycat crime.
I also have a feeling the 1980 investigation is going to lead to an incredibly haphazard conviction. Which again contrasts season 1. Russ and Marty didn't get the yellow maninitially, but they got his posse. In season 3, I think we are going to see someone completely innocent become convicted.

I don't think she's involved but she failed somewhere along the lines. I think at the end of the day they all failed them kids one way or another. I think this season will show how there are several opportunities for people to solve the case and save Julie but they fail again and again.
I'm way more interested in the 1980 timeline right now but that's because them old school Ozark vibes freak me out
I got family that live out there and I remember visiting them when I was a kid and it's pretty wild..

Any possibility that the woman doing the doc is the missing girl ??

It may be a small part but the way Hays ignored his kids when he came home from the deposition was big to me. Homie didn't even act like he gave a fukk. Add in the thing with his daughter in the 2015 timeline something might be there....

No from the looks of it she is a big time reporter.Any possibility that the woman doing the doc is the missing girl ??

I slightly disagree . I can see how people may think this because of his words but his actions displayed a different guy. He hunts wild boar without live ammunition because he wants a "level playing field". When it came time to investigate homie went searching solo, wasn't spooked or anything. And when the body is found he immediately goes searching for the girl in the dead of night against the wishes of his partner...
If anything he may become too emotionally involved.

Ep 2 definitely started on the necessary emotional hooks. 1 just left me kind of dry although there wasnt much wrong with it.
Always a trip tho which scene surprises and gets my biggest reaction This time it was the daddy being clowned on at the factory with that ol early days nanny state ("you need your leave") bullshyt. This dude Scoot McNairy (yeah, thats his name and he's top billed) is damn good. fukk that straw boss nikka for telling a man not to bring some dignity back in his life and work. And his scene later in the car with Ali and Dorff had me a lil
no lie
Also Ali's line about Democrats to teacher lady...even for 1980...interesting

So I just finished watching.
Yall can ignore this because most of it is babble but
Do yall think the fact that we sort of perceive and understand these shows to be mystery show with a twist at the end, does that fact sort of ruin or take away from the experience of the show? I mean as soon as the crime gets sort of revealed on the show instead of just experiencing the show as is, you sort of shifting through trying to determine who dun it and what not. This is doubly on a show like this because we know that the criminals involved are going to be somewhat obscure and likely someone we know. So we come in jaded from jump about almost everything instead of letting things play out. Like the show becomes more about eliminating suspects as oppose to just watching a TV show. I mean as a writer you probably love setting shyt up like that but I guess I'm wondering as a viewer if looking at a show like this that way is ideal.
I say that because of the fact True Detective is in the title and because I already know what these types of shows do I'm automatically assuming everyone is involved with something over the most obscure bullshyt.
