True Detective

So I met a really cute girl at the bar last night and she had black stars tattooed over her shoulder. Does that mean she was gang raped as a child and or have daddy issues? I'm so confused.

That's just a normal Saturday night out where I come from.

Everything in the show was intended.

That's funny considering people around here are justifying some loose ends by referencing Nick Pizzolato saying they were production accidents.

Ask her if she wants to make flowers.

I think I know that girl

I don't think anyone is genuinely upset that their theories weren't realized. Personally, I didn't think the philosophical concepts were so profound that I was willing to ignore the fact that the show deteriorated into a sloppy, unfocused crime drama about halfway through the season.

We hear ominous whispers about Carcosa and the Yellow King, yet everything is so nebulous that it doesn't make sense. The cult has far-reaching influence but all we get is a standard chase involving a lawn-mowing hillbilly. You can't give the audience a bird's-eye view of your villain and expect it to have any dramatic punch.

And what was with that ridiculous vortex scene at the end? Is it supposed represent Cohle's newfound spirituality or was it a nod to the Cthulhu mythos? The cult could have been connected to another dimension for all we know.

The first 3 or 4 episodes were some of the best television I've seen but the show lost direction after Cohle went rambo in the projects and never recovered its sense of pacing and tension.

Yeah, that idea is about as stupid and far-fetched as the notion that some guy is having visions of symbols with no real meaning attached to them.

Actually, it's entirely possible that everything he saw was real. If you really want to believe in that shit, it works. There was power in that room - Childress really was on the verge of ascension, everything the carcosa nuts were saying was real and literal, and so on.

But even Rust believes it's just drug-induced hallucinations. He was in a creepy fucking lair of death filled with occult symbols with Childress chanting mumbo jumbo at him and his LSD kicked in.

Woah now, that's pretty huge. I can think of two others that are worse.
