Perhaps the biggest spoiler in this article is that for the final two episodes of “True Detective” season 2, we are probably going to continue to complain about HBO’s synopsis strategy. It really does not make any sense: They hide releasing these as though there is something major hidden within them, and yet there are […]
Tonight, “True Detective” tried to make some of its boldest moves to date in setting up what will transpire in the final two episodes. We saw Ani go uncover to obtain some clues about the Caspere investigation, and we also saw Ray make some of his biggest personal sacrifices to date. “Black Maps and Motel […]
Given that “True Detective” is only running for eight episodes, there are definitely moments we get frustrated watching Ray and Frank stare at each other for longer than a few seconds. There is so much else to get to! Yet, at the same time tonight’s “Church of Ruins” contained so many other important character moments […]
Tonight another pivotal episode of “True Detective” season 2 is set to air on HBO, and as we prepare to watch this story unfold we are still left to ponder one very simple question: Are we getting the show we deserve? That’s a modified version of the tagline for this season, but it is hard […]

Going into tonight’s new episode of “True Detective,” we had a wide array of questions. Primarily, one of the biggest ones was whether or not the series could really vindicate itself after an action sequence that while awesome, really did not do much to push forward the story.
