    True Détective Seasone one !

    Each season is a completely different story, so they’re not related. But season one of this show absolutely killed it, starring both Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson. TD is a must watch show for anyone into the crime genre as this, dare I say it, is the king of all crime.

      The first and third fourth seasons are good . Avoid the second one. It really took a dip on that one.

        I loved the book ‘Starship Troopers’ and hated the movie because it changed all the good stuff in the book. After a couple of rewatches I began to like the movie for what it was.

        Same thing with Season Two. If you compare it to the first, it sucks. If you watch it cold it’s a pretty good show.

        Although I totally agree, the 2nd season was much weaker than the first, it had its moments and is still very watchable (after a slow start). Season one is really outstanding, the acting, camera and story are so good!

          Sorry I meant 4th season, night country with Jodie foster - I skipped over the 3rd after I had been so disappointed with the 2nd.

            I will try third but if it sucks, I will go for 4th right away.

      I was going to comment the same! When I heard it was “deep”, I thought it meant “pretentious”. But no, there is a character that has deep quotes mostly inspired by a real life author, and other characters that are diverse. I could criticize details here or there, but it is an incredible show (ed.: that season).
