I enjoyed this episode & i haven't been a fan of this season..:yeshrug:

The conversation between them 2 at the end, solid acting :mjcry:
Don't the sun look angry through the trees :mjcry:

I figured I'd get those type of responses, the high and mighty posters who can't stand to see any criticism of this show. I can take a slow pace as long as the story progresses. We are on episode 5 and the story has hardly had any progression whatsoever. We aren't any closer to knowing what happened to those kids and whodunit than we were in episode 1. But if I am not entertain by nothing happening then I am apart of the microwave oven society.


fukk outta here:camby:
I agree with you. They haven't given us much, and by now we should have way more clues
im not going to lie this is is little bit underwhelming :francis:
At this point I'm only watching for the acting and the dialogue. Ali and Dorrf both deserve rewards for this acting master piece. I wonder if Dorrf did voice acting for RDR2. If not, he should have.
I think Purp is actually shifting back and forth through time. :ehh:
That's a dope ass nickname. Did they explain the meaning behind it?

Rewatching the episodes, on ep. 2 with Amelia, Ro and Wayne interviewing the kid at the school and Amelia creeping me out brehs :francis::francis:

Her book might be some OJ Simpson "If I DID Do It" ish :mjlol:.......wouldn't surprise me if Amelia is linked with a cult who took Julie and accidentally killed Will

And Wayne and Ro helped her get away with it :francis:

And I'm probably all the way wrong :russ:

I haven't re-watched season 1, but what clues did we have after episode 5?

IIRC, they thought they had who was behind everything and the scenes set in the present had cops trying to pin the murders on Cohle.

Not sure. I was just saying they really haven't dug into the meat of the story. We're still warming up when we should be past that stage.

nikkaz making excuses for this boring ass BS season.:childplease:Nothing has happened in 5 episodes. Just admit ya'll as lost as everyone else. Dragging people along for 5 episodes with no real suspect or motive is just bad storytelling and stretching a season longer than it needs to be.
this shyt is mediocre :yeshrug: id actually watch season 2 over this

the shyt with them as old men is absolute trash :mjlol: call this show by another name and i guarantee a lotta dudes are NOT fukkin with it like they say they are

In the sky
Its obviously whoever the "Aunt" is. And since the children have no real aunt, its obviously was done by a women that the mother knows. How do we know this...because she used the phrase about children should laugh and smile from the ransom note. So who could the mother know, that she thought would provide children and/or daughter with a better life?

Why have we not met any of those people yet. Its obvious the mother knows somebody rich. And the only rich people in that town I would assume are the folks who own the Chicken Plant. This is alluded to by the fact the owner of the plant can go on Safari in Africa for months.

Additionally, them figurines being used tells you its somebody from the town. And they either attend that church, or they have seen those communion photos from the family photo album.

Also that plant employs a lot of people in that town. Even Rolands gf said she studied Poultry Science...so Im assuming she worked there too.

They need to get into starting the next episode because some more revelations need to start happening.

Yeah, this show like a lot of HBO shyt is over hyped. I will definitely finish but I don't have high expectations.
Season 1 had great performances and a memorable action scene. But the finale was kinda meh.
Season 2 had too many characters and the acting was a huge drop off from Season 1.
This season has good acting but the story doesn't even seem True Detective worthy. Season 2's story had more to it than this shyt.
it's doomed itself with season 1

every season is gonna be compared, and at this point they oughta change the fukkin name because its never gonna live up :dead:

Good post. It's actually annoying me that we have so few Revelations at this point. Episode 5 definitely should of had a key revelation and turning point. They waited until the very end with the answer machine shyt to allude to their being a turn around the corner.
Besides the usual unnecessary cliché stuff (long stares, slow philosophical rambling, outerworldly dialogues), it's a pretty gripping and chilling season so far. Acting and atmosphere are top notch
I'm only watching it for these two reasons. I think the show is going to get really dark and chilling. If my hypothesis about the wife comes to fruition, then we are going to really have some frightening things happen. That scene with Amelia trading the jungle book to their children while he was in bed was chilling as well, especially if the passage was referring to herself. She quotes the book, saying "I had never seen the jungle. They fed me behind bars from an iron pan till one night I felt that I was Bagheera - the Panther - and no man's plaything, and I broke the silly lock with one blow of my paw and came away; and because I had learned the ways of men, I became more terrible in the jungle than Shere Khan.” That could also refer to Wayne. I think once everything finally comes together this show will take off. They just need to hurry up. Next episode has to pack a punch.
