Can we agree that season 2 of True Detective was in fact just as good as season 1

Worse throughout, better finale.
Seems like the just picked the idea that would lead to that finale and the rushed the rest of it.
Wasn't bad TV, but wasn't as gripping as the first one.
Also McAdams is qt.
I liked it. But the occult mystic shit was part of what made season 1 special.
I thought it was pretty good. Don't know that it was *better* than S1, because they really are quite different stories. But I'm glad to see a little renaissance of people coming out and admitting it was good despite critical backlash. Or maybe it's just one guy making a ton of threads. I dunno.
The writing is so different it's hard to really compare. I can see how you could think S2 was as well- or better-written.
But S1 was produced way, way better. Better acting, better cinematography and editing, better design.
It was alright.
Just not as good as the first season, still way better than most tv shit.
Shit-tier television that got a promising series cancelled by a network that almost never quits on its brands. Go fuck yourself, OP. You are liquid cancer.

No, it was horrible, it was a piece of shit.

how hard is it to hire a single director for 8 episodes?
>>70448959
Absolutely fucking not
It was horrible, Pizza had no idea what the fuck he was doing, and HBO will be right when they officially pull the third season

Pretty hard, actually. If you want a good one, that is.
You're asking someone to devote a fuckton of time to it, essentially 4 movies in the timespan most are able to do 1 or 2.

Stop making these threads, Pizza. I just want to forget it.
No it clearly wasn't as good as S1, but it wasn't total shit. Lets not argue about that again though.
It sucks there won't be a season 3 but I was thinking about it the other day and I would love to see Glenn Howerton in a True Detective type show. He's a great actor and it's against type.
What yall think?
It's an example of when the fans are idiots
They liked SE1 because it was mystical and had certain dark elements
They thought SE2 would the same.
But the show is about detectives solving crimes,you gotta mix things up or it becomes stale.
