Anybody into True Detective?

2 episodes left.

Any predictions?

Warning: If you haven't been watching, there are probably going to be some spoilers in this thread.

Watch it religiously. Best show on cable right now.

Prediction: The Yellow King is going to end up being someone no one suspects.

I enjoy the show tremendously, although for a European the language is hard to follow at times. Some subtitles would probably help me.

There are only two episodes left in this season, or period?

Agreed.

Prediction: I think Marty is into some shit. I've just got this feeling. There has been a lot of foreshadowing with respect to his daughters throughout the course of the narrative. Plus you have him checking his revolver before going to have a beer with Cohle . . .

Two episodes left with these characters and this story arc/narrative.

I've heard some potentially awesome pairings for next season.

Bradley Cooper and Dustin Hoffman or Sam Rockwell and Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

That would be awesome as well.

I have a feeling that a couple of top-notch actors will bite after the tremendous popularity of the first "season."

Fassbender would be a guy I'd be interested in watching as well. Fassbender and Christian Bale.

I have not. Now I will avoid.

I thought he was tolerable in Inception and DKR.

Totally into it. I have had to watch a few episode over again, it so easy to miss something of importance. There is a cool website you can go to gain more insight into the show especially the mythology of the stories.

Check it out..http://www.darknessbecomesyou.com/

I was also shocked that Harrelson is the lady's man on the show, not Mcconaughey

Kinda of sucks they are doing short seasons though, I have come to expect 12-14 episode seasons from HBO shows, oh well.

I think of True Detective as more of an 8 hour film, so it makes sense that it's not more of a longer run per season. I think when things get stretched out too long, it dilutes the storyline. Just look at the last 2 seasons of Walking Dead. I was into the show the most during Season 1 (6 episodes), then they started dragging things out way too slow.

yeah what a great show...I kinda think Marty is the guy...although many things such as the antlers were kinda ripped off from NBC's show Hannibal...found it funny how that blonde gal Marty was recently with also has similar role(gratuitous sex) on the show Banshee also...

I started watching it a bit, but gave my fiance my apple tv and I don't feel like watching stuff on my phone. Hopefully they'll release the app on ps3 or xb1 soon. I need to rewatch it I guess.

Totally understand what you're saying about Walking Dead. For that reason I stopped watching.

Haven't noticed it with True Detective though. I'm still hooked!

Can't wait.

Anybody find it odd/suspicious when at the end of last episode, after Cohle flagged Marty down to grab a beer, Marty checked the cylinder on his revolver to make sure it was loaded?

Red herring or legitimate hint?

I think he was psyched out because those detectives were trying to paint Cohle as the "real" killer, and for some odd reason Marty seemed to buy halfway into it.
