Rubicon's problem was, much like this show, almost no one was watching it.

The Following is a million times more fun to watch than this show.

Yeah, True Detective will easily be entirely forgotten within 30-40 years. Hell, I don't even think people will give a shit about it in a decade.

Hey now, to be fair True Detective also featured a number of well rounded female characters.

So true. I saw this headline and thought "Two more years of this shit?"

Eh, there's nothing wrong with shitting on a mediocre show and GoT is definitely mediocre.

Don't insult piles of shit by comparing them to Agents of SHIELD.

The previews had me super excited for this episode and it didn't let me down. All the drone action was crazily awesome.

You can't compare premium cable ratings to basic cable ones. It's a totally different business model.

Exactly.

Mini-movie? I wouldn't even netflix a movie that had as little substance as this episode did. It was boring.

Agreed. Anyone who cried over this is ridiculous. My only reaction to most of this episode was to roll my eyes.

It's not two hours long it's 66 minutes. It and its first repeat air back-to-back in two 75 minute timeslots.

Who gives a shit about spectacle? If anything Todd overrated this mediocre episode. It damn near had me dozing off.

Yeah, I chuckled at that too. Just what music fans need: another rockist who only listens to the "good stuff" whatever the fuck that is.

What an awesome episode. Eva Green is great.

Goddamn, this is just awesome. It's so much better than the lackluster seasons 6-8.

When a show's premiere episode gets bad ratings why should a network spend a ton of more money/time advertising it? We're long past the era when networks can grow mediocre performers into hits, so it's better to just cut your losses.

Hilarious. I'm all for good television, but it is a business after all, and Fox hasn't really been airing all that much good television lately.

Yep. I love a lot of the shows Reilly has put on the air over the years, but with Fox in absolute shambles I'm not surprised he got the axe.
