a little over an hour for true detective. Its rare I get this excited about a TV show I hope the ending isn't a letdown.

What was wrong with it?

I just think it was predictable and maybe even a little rushed and lazy compared to the start of the series. I was concerned when they showed you the Yellow King in episode 7 that it would go the logical conclusion and the series up to that point did such a good job of keeping you guessing that I had hoped for a twist. Instead they just kind went for an Apocalypse Now kinda shock value but no plot twist.

Don't get me wrong - I loved the series as a whole, I just thought, especially given that Marty and Rust were 1 season characters, they could have gone in a number of directions, but ended up with the good guys get the bad guy and everyone lives happily ever after.

For example there was a group of people involved in this stuff - and Rust brings it up to Marty and Marty just dismisses it - "we don't get them all, that's the way of the world but we got our guy" - a little too much of a band aid to close out the series.

That might be great is there was a season 2, but there won't be . Whole new cast, whole new plot.

Nah I disagree. It is the real world. They won't get all caught. Hell, even in the end of the show when Rust first wakes up you hear the news reporter say that Senator Tuttle had denied rumors of being related to him.

Hell they showed the yellow king towards the beginning of the show. Love that just a not so big figure ends up it.

And didn't it bother you that Marty's daughter had a circle of figures on the bedroom floor in one of the early episodes? I was like WTF?

I think there were multiple sub plots - in that case I think it was just showing how much Marty was a fuck up as a father even though he thought he was a good fambly man.

Could be wrong on that one but they played her out to be some sexual wild thing which I think was like karma for Marty fucking around with young women

I liked the series, but I agree with you, eCat, about some of the issues with the finale. Also, when he pulled that 10-inch knife outta his gut, he most likely would have died (never do that, leave it in place). The placement would have most likely sliced his abdominal aorta anyway... But all-in-all, very thankful for most HBO series. Besides this, you have Sopranos, The Wire, Boardwalk, Deadwood, GoT, CYE, and Rome. There are some I don't like (True Blood, Girls, Sex in the City, etc), but the majority seem fairly compelling.

I found it interesting that they left a supernatural aspect open to interpretation.

eCat · Post by **eCat** » Mon Mar 10, 2014 10:32 pm

speaking of pulling the knife out, I just read that Steve Irwin didn't pull the stingray barb out of his heart like it was reported, he just bled out anyways on the life raft as they tried to get back to the main boat.

If a major vessel is fully compromised, it's rare that you live. It happens, but the odds are very bad unless you happen to have a skilled trauma surgeon and his team available.

Maybe that's why Cohle pulled the knife out: he thought he was going to die anyway, so no sense in suffering.

And ATM: what supernatural aspect?

Recently, I've watched "12 Years a Slave" and "42 -The Jackie Robinson Story".

Let me say this unequivocally: yes, I hate white people. Both movies got me fired up and sad - despite the happy endings.

Also, I think I'm in love with Nicole Beharie.

You could interpret the events in a supernatural way because of the way they present Cohle's hallucinations. The imagery, Yellow King, Carcosa, etc is very Lovecraftian and thus evokes the rituals and cults in those stories where people are performing sacrifices and things to open doors to other dimensions (and places like the city named Carcosa). The last hallucination that we see Cohle have (the vortex tornado star like thing) is the spiral that the killers all have branded on them and that they put on their victims. Cohle is also called a "priest" a couple times, and the cultists we meet seem to know that he sees things somehow. You could interpret it that this cult was actually doing supernatural things and that Rust's hallucinations were real.

The interpretation that these were all some crazy drugged up motherfuckers (including Cohle) is also another valid interpretation.
