As vibrant as Close is, maybe I just don’t want to think of her as having a career achievement award.......I want to see her tackling new roles and bringing it. 

Terrific third year outing for True Detective. It was a pleasure to see three lead performance shine but like for everyone here, Stephen Dorff proved a revelation. Some are not going to like the twists to get “that story worth telling” but I was very surprised that a series that was careening into conspiracy, a…

Olivia Colman winning was absolutely right. And her acceptance speech a joy. Having watched The Wife this afternoon, Glen Close was fine. But it would have smacked of a career achievement nod. I know there is role for Close out there that will summon all of her talents and for a performance most deserving. 

But, but, but, but..............it’s the Season Finale of True Detective!

Just like the moon landing, everyone remembers where they were when this aired, which given the average age here, narrows the list to about nine regulars.

But his death is his own doing, a choice they were forced to make, not a natural consequence of their violence.
That isn’t ambiguity. It isn’t poetic. It’s narrative cowardice.

Instead the reviewers cynicism upends any credibility while revealing a lack of empathy for human failings Last week’s gorgeous…

You could say that it’s the Maroon 5 halftime show of Toy Story 4 trailers

Certainly not with that attitude! 

Looks like she got fucked silly by an aluminum Christmas tree.

Emily, you were a lot kinder to this episode than I thought you would be. The procedural elements are slow, almost spinning in place because let’s be honest, a lot of these are going to be dead ends, so it’s becoming a bit rote. But yikes so much of the dialogue was so oddly stilted and over written. Example: Gummer I…

STARDUST?  Not even one question regarding?

Ahh, this is where many get frustrated with the True Detective series because, it is a procedural, it can be creepy and lurid, but a procedural. But I have to differ with Emily’s take on the children and omissions.

The entire tone may be familiar, the Southern setting similar to the first season, the lurid crime and sketchy characters beautifully cast, but damn does it not pull you in.
