HOLY FUCKING SHIT
Season 2 is pure kinotv.
I liked Season 1, though the fedora-baby's-first-existentialism shit was cringeworthy, but, season 2 had me feeling since the beginning.
The only bad thing I can think about in this season was the fact that the mystery was obfuscated by the characters. There wasn't that 'big bad wolf' like in season 1.
Patrician opinion OP, S2 was so fucking underrated.
I think people were just upset it wasn't like S1, it was still absolutely great in it's own right

You ever notice how pseuds never tell you why it's good
I miss the meme threads during S1
Too many plot points went nowhere IMO, wasn't as tight as s1
Kys you contrarian faggot.
I think we can all agree that Vinceposting was the only truly great meme to come from TD.

Sooweeee pleb pleb pleb sooooweeee
>>71521643
it had a well-crafted complex storyline and interesting, compelling characters with an oppressive atmosphere in a realistic setting.
Max level b8 thread right here
I agree
Season 2 is really good, Season 1 is pretty overrated but still pretty good
Why is /tv/ overrun with plebs now? old /tv would've loved this season
True Detective Season 2 is the greatest artistic work of all time - not just television, but anything ever crafted by human hands. The Sistine Chapel is nothing compared to Ray yelling at his fat pussy son over some shoes
>>71521529
season 2 was worse because it was just as shlocky as season 1 but even edgier and tryhard. it took itself way too seriously. without the supernatural stuff and the pseudophilosophy it removed a bunch of the fun. without that it's just a generic, pretentious police procedural
>>71521529
pleb filter: the season.
i like you OP.
>>71521907
this desu
>>71521529
t. contrarian
>>71521907
yep
back to r-eddit and/or AV club, everyone who disliked it.
STOP USING KINO TO DESCRIBE TELEVIISON SERIES SHITHEADS
>>71521907
it's funny when plebs say this
>>71521865
berry funny, you should be a riter or a comedyian
>>71521861
Your old /tv/ is baneposting. The good old /tv/ was LOST generals and still contrarian trash. I dont miss it because I've never wanted to be a part of this. This is what I've become
>>71522003
english, please.
>>71521907
It is a pleb filter, but not in the way you think it is. It's like Zack Snyder movies.
You have absolutely no fucking critical thinking if you think this fiasco was redeemable in any way.
The characters and chemistry between them beats S1 any time
TD Season 2 is kind of like Government Plates or Notm if you excuse the /mu/ analogy.
Really, really, really good and superior to the rest, but plebs gonna pleb and prefer The Memey Store / Season 1.
>>71522033
this, there wasn't even any cthulhu themes like wtf! trash for plebs without any sense of artistic knowledge
>>71522030
Surprise surprise a capeshitter appears
>>71521529
I unironically think it's the greatest season of television ever. it definitely shits on all the mediocre garbage like The Wire and Sopranos
>>71522120
nice falseflag autist
>>71522079
Kill yourself fucking retard.
It's basically Chinatown with a little bit of Mulholland Drive sprinkled in.
How can that not be pure kino?
>>71522105
I'm not a capeshitter. I was comparing season 2 to capeshit.
True Detective Season 2 > Fargo Season 2 > Fargo Season 1 > True Detective Season 1
Why does nobody ever explain why S2 was bad?
It mostly just seems to be non-arguments like "pretentious" and "boring"
>>71522292
You realize that's ranking diarrhea type of shit in order of preference.
It really doesn't matter since it's all so fucking bad.
>>71522030
if you don't like S2 of TD, or Only God Forgives, or Zack Snyder films, you are a pleb.
>>71522315
>muh cthulhu
>>71522330
This is probably sarcasm but it's fully correct.
>>71522315
what do you expect from ledditor millenials?
>>71522357
agreed anon.
What did he mean by this?
>>71521630
FUCK THIS SONG IS KINO
KINO
Bunch of fucking stolen plotlines from Ellroy's novels hacked up together in the shittiest way possible and shitters jerk over it because it is fucking loathed and hated rightfully.
Fucking contrarian memers kys and make ur mother proud
>>71522432
>still perpetuating the meme that people will like something because it's unpopular
>>71522234
How many times did you re-watch BVS just to make such an in depth commentary
>>71522292
>yfw S3
comfy kino incoming
>>71521529
YFW you realize S1 and S2 are connected
>>71522539
Christian bale is the only logical choice
>>71522432
>Bunch of fucking stolen plotlines from X's novels
Same could be said about season 1.

On /tv/? It's a way of life.
>>71521529
Memes are so whacky! xD
>>71522613
Except Woody and McCough managed to elevate the rather shit writing to something interesting for a while.. until the fucking 2000 and post storylines happen and it becomes too fucking horrible to stomach even with Harrelson and Matthew.
>>71522623
More like people can actually think for themselves
Instead of pretending that S2 was anything but thrown-together Pizzaman trash, you should do some Frankposting.
Caspere knew this.
>>71521529
SOME SAY LOVE
IT IS A RIVERRRR

is this cancelled? or season3 coming
>>71522738

>>71522028
my mind is cryptic and only tru memers may look inside :^)
PS im just drunk because society made me an alcoholic
>>71521800
>a well-crafted
Nothing about s2 is well crafted, then again, only very little was well crafted in s1.
Frank's ending was the best of them all
Ray's was kinda retarded dunno how to feel properly about it
"Well-Disguised" Dude's was OK
Girl's was the worst

nice criticism fagget
>>71522862
>i don't know what realistic setting means
>>>/v/
It had some bumpy moments, but, it wasnt as awful as the media/critics painted it out to be. People were legit pissed when they found out about no matthew and woody -- that was a huge blow to the show before it even aired.
>>71521529
The only legitimate complaint about this season was the writing.
>>71522738
You remember it was a set-up, r-right?
>>71522865
yeah it's totally realistic to keep The Incriminating Files To Your Land Deal Scheme in the secret sex mansion/cabin/whatever
>>71522687
so they all have the same thought.
Excellent meme, my friend. Upvoted!
>>71521866
>muh occult/supernatural
>>71521800
>well crafted
entire plot gets thrown away after the time jump
>complex
exposition heavy =/= complex
>interesting characters
Character, singular. Velcoro is the only charcater who even approaches three dimensions.
>oppressive, realistic enviornment
Fictional town where everybody frowns. Well, it's oppressive at least.
>>71522917
>still not understanding what realistic setting means
you should swallow bleach
Why do crossboarders always make the most inane, simplistic "arguments"?
It was a show so good it got fucking shelved by HBO, not to return anytime soon, perhaps never.
This is what idiot contrarians legitimately believe.
>>71522990
because plebs always know what's good.
>>71522843
Show had moments of pure brilliance
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7PtiJYVeymo
>>71522946
you should smoke Nick Pizzeria's robot dick since you're already halfway there, faggot.
>>71522990
sure thing GoT and true blood must have been the best shows ever made
This is what retards believe
>>71523035
Sorry that the shitty season of a ripoff artist's show got it informally cancelled :^)
Why didn't mustache man just tell the FBI what was going on at the end? If the corruption and fuckery was contained in just that shitty part of California he could have told the feds.
>>71523068
Good one, bazzzinga very funny
>>71523120
try a little harder if you actually want to upset someone, autist.
>>71523035
Seems that way. If a retard like you can presume to be the arbiter of quality, anyone can.
>>71523077
Something shitty being secretly good, the ultimate meme of the /tv/ shitposter. Getting tired of posting in capeshit threads I guess?
hi there lil faggot
>>71523179
If I were retarded i'd be making shitty arguments about how boring S2 was
>>71523286
>I watched Chinatown and basically did the same thing with worse dialogue
wow, what an amazing season. truly a neo-noir masterpiece.
>>71523330
not an argument
>>71523221
>post went over my head
>>71523390
There's no argument necessary. The show is fucking dead since no one important agrees with you. The head of programming who publicly defended TD S2 fucking left as a result of this huge mess.
S2 was absolutely telekino. plebs just thought s1 was what the whole series was and forgot that it was a detective series in the end
>>71523467
Why are you so afraid of being seen as contrarian?
>>71523221
tell me son, how does it feel to be chicken-shit retarded?
>>71523438
>being the S2 apologist man
i think i solved this very complex, very Californian mystery of identity my friends
>>71521866
This desu
Some reddit fag comes close and touches your fine suit and implies to get it off you for him
How do you respond, /tv/?
I like how the people who defend Season 2 basically also have to defend a plagiarist who was lucky as hell to not have anyone legally challenge him on it.
>>71523614
Yeah, unlike that masterful OC that is S1.
Too many main characters.
In S1 it was a classic case of pairing up a "crazy" guy with a straight man. This is a tried and proven method of investing viewers in a work of fiction.
In S2 we got a homo cop whose suplot is literally irrelevant to the main plot and if you remove him from the whole thing you miss next to nothing.
Frank, I suspect, was elevated from a supporting character and given more time. His straight man act runs parallel to the main story but can also be trimmed down considerably without losing much.
Ray is solid throughout. Great starting point, great development, great finale.
Ani is not really convincing as played by McAdams. Her family subplot also kinda goes nowhere.
The worst thing about the season though is that literally EVERY character that shows up is "in on it". Every official is corrupt and a part of some sex lodge and a big conspiracy. Every side character turns out to be a part of it as well. In the end there is no real reveal but just "oh I guess everyone is involved" and that's that.
There are a couple of nice surreal moments like Ray's dream vision and him living in a cop house that's apparently erected on a police station parking lot. That bit was hilarious.
I WAS NOT KEKED
THE KID IS MINE
>>71523628
All of True Detective is derivative trash. Season one is the scam season to get Nick in the door of HBO, and the second season showed that he's just a one-trick pony when he can't ripoff obscure literature or comic books.
>>71523545
I think you are literally retarded. Your reading comprehension is shockingly terrible
>>71523695
You apologizing for the work of a plagiarist is worse than a shitposter who is obviously provoking you into responding.
>>71523656
>>71523650
b-but it was KINO
>>71521776
Even Caspere knew that.
>>71523650
The part where homo cop kills EVERYONE in the dark train tunnels but then gets shot in the back by bird cop for not clearing his corners.
I mean, come on.
>>71522315
fuck off, that just proves you weren't here for the threads when it was airing. All its problems have been discussed at length.
The sole reason all the memes that came out of it, and this bait thread, exist is due to how bad it was. It plays on the huge disappointment felt by the people that liked the first one.
>>71523746
>lel I was just shitposting I didn't mean it, I "got" it
>>71523815
It's not only that it happened but that it was so obvious it would happen.
>>71523854
I'm sorry you're this conflicted about taking bait. Maybe use your brain before you respond to obvious shitposting.
>>71523868
For all the talk about how deep Season 2 was, the character beats and plotting are shockingly shallow. The only interesting scene was probably Frank's death.
>>71523842
i was here when it was airing and 90% of the complaints were that it wasn't S1, fuck off.
>>71523961
wrong, 90% of it was vinceposting, laughing about faggot cop and making fun of the bad dialogue
>>71524037
>complaints
>I AIN'T GAY BRO
What did he mean by this?
>>71523236
Her tits were one of the best thing about S2
>it's a dog eat dog world, Ray- and I'm the fuckin Chinaman.
>>71524457
I loved Frank's racism desu

I think I know why this great season got raped hard.
>>71522292
holy shit this is literally backwards.
>>71521907
this desu
it was entertaining to see the replies and unique IP count drop in true detective S2 threads while the quality increased
the exact opposite thing that happened with the first season
>>71527684
