He's actually referring to his other self. His spirit animal. Cohle is actually a demon wolf who returns to the earth every 12,000 years. They'll reveal that in episode 7.

I don't think there's any real time loop. But I think that Rust's character firmly believes he's stuck in one.

Started reading this at forum page 17, but anyone else figure there's something about that dry-cleaning lady's fingers? They showed it for way too long for it to be nothing... or exactly long enough to be a red herring.

Of course they are going to keep letting Cohle off the hook, they know they need bad men to catch bad men.

Short preview clip for tonight's episode. There's just barely enough time to rewatch the earlier episodes before 9PM est!

I wouldn't be surprised if HBO engineered this series to dismantle the perceived benefits of Netflix's front-loaded binge release model. Maximise tension in each episode (instead of leveraging the binge-watch model to smooth out the narrative over several episodes) then let the anticipation during the week roil up exactly the cultural buzz that HBO measures its success with.

The last episode was full of circular imagery, and even the characters actions followed a circular path back to earlier in the show. Rust is obvious as he retraces his investigation, but a lot could be said about Hart hitting his kid, who it seems was abused by someone thus perpetuating a cycle of violence. It's obviously part of the larger narrative of the story.

My guess is the writer was thinking about the nature of a crime procedural quite a bit, and these themes are a natural extension of that.

I dunno, if the police caught my daughter bumping uglies with two guys at the same time, I'd be upset. I'm not surprised he slapped her.

Beginning of episode 2: As Cohle is examining the "devil trap" on his desk, the camera slowly pulls away and Hart's name plate is positioned under the trap

You're an unimaginative fool, so it's not surprising that you don't get it.

It's unbelievable that people are still treating this show like a straightforward, run-of-the-mill procedural.

Supertouch and Chuck should start their own tv thread in the shaw so they stop filling this one up with bullshit.

After his last few posts in the House of Cards thread, Iannis might want to join them also.
