Please tell me you're all watching True Detective! This is something really special, think an 8 hour movie masterpiece rather than a TV show. Where to start with this? How about McConnaghey and Harrelson? You won't see two better screwed up cops - Matthew McC in particular is stunning. The music is spot on - Wu Tang Clan, Grinderman and The Melvin's in Ep 4 alone. It's creepy, really creepy - who or what s The Yellow King?- don't ask me, haven't finished it yet - I refuse to binge on something so rich. Action? Last 20 mins of Ep 4 (I loved Ep 4, can you tell?) rivals Children of Men as the most amazing non stop one shot scene ever filmed. The locales and cinematography are dazzling, the settings aren't what you'd call pretty but are filmed like oil paintings. I could ramble for pages - just don't miss this show. Hannibals pretty amazing too. We are truly spoiled just now.
