Not calling you out, but just an observation on my travels through the True Detective Reddit forum.
A lot of people are bitching about the second season, how its slow, and there is too much backstory, and why hasnt anyone died yet, when will it pick up the pace. ITS THE SECOND FUCKING EPISODE.
IT IS NOT A MICHAEL BAY FILM.
Im trying to figure out what more these people want.
Ya got a sex addicted dead guy with politcal power who was in to Animal dress up and has brass dicks all over his sex apartment
A criminal boss trying to go legit and is leaning towards his old ways of breaking knee caps and murder to get what he wants
An alcoholic Detective who supposedly beat his wifes rapist to death and is caring for the Son of his wifes rapist while now under the influence of previously mentioned criminal boss
A freaky female Cop who likes knives and weird sex and whos dad is incharge of some weird religious cult that likely ties to the dead sex guy.
A CA Highway Patrol officer who cant get it up and is likely a closet homosexual pretending to be a homophobe with some crazy PTSD from his days with with military and Blackwater
Ya know how I know all that......Backstory, it makes the characters interesting. Not just Robots and explosions.
But I guess they got what they wanted in the last 90 seconds when someone gets double tapped by a guy in a bird mask with a shotgun.
