Vince is going to play a bad guy who has the detective, Farrel, in his pocket....seems like a good role for Vince actually. Sort of like Starsky and Hutch with less comedy

Also, I was quite skeptical about Matt Mcconaughey prior to the last season - but he monster fucked the hell out of that gig. So, I'm looking forward to see how Vaughn performs.
Reigniting that Rachel Mcadams magic from wedding crashers. Those two made a masterpiece once, I'm hopeful they can pull it off again. Big shoes to fill, especially with how fantastic Matt Mcconaughey's character was last season.

I've got really high hopes for this
perfect role for Colin Farrell, the lead female role (don't know her name) looks like she's going to be really good and I'm actually somewhat cautiously optimistic for Vince Vaughn's role

Honestly Mcconaughey was absolutely crushing before he went into that role. Killer Joe, Dallas Buyers Club, Wolf of Wall Street. At some point he turned a corner in his career and became one of the best actors in the business.
Not a fan of having a comedy guy trying to play a serious role, but I like Vince so I'll try to go in with an open mind.

One of the chief (and valid) criticisms of season one was that its female characters were at best underdeveloped and at worst treated as mere objects. Pizzolatto appears to be addressing that head-on in the form of McAdams' character, a flinty Ventura County detective who packs multiple knives and is eager to prove how tough she is. As Vaughn's wife, Kelly Reilly is also much more of a presence than any woman on the show last year.

He was doing bumps of chowder at the bar, then when he got the call he obviously hit some solid lines to wake the fuck up. Agreed his eyes n shit we're a little too clear but hard to fully portray that state when dead sober acting.

Season 1 was phenomenal. Fk the critics. They say valid as if women are being oppressed in some way or like the audience can't distinguish entertainment from reality, lol. Totally brutal acts can happen, be good TV and it doesn't hurt women or men by encouraging similar behaviour because it's fictional. What a load of BS.
First ep was really good. Funnily enough, felt that the "tough" female lead sucked. She served what seemed to be a baseless warrant based on a vague rumor showing her volatile, self-serving and emotional nature. She pleaded with her father to deal with one of his daughters, fragile, emotional again and daddy issues. Locked up in a casino laden with booze cursing at the staff... boy she can really stand on her own two feet. She carrys a Kerambit in her boot, wow.. so tough. No doubt they will all turn out to be great characters but I just wish people left the oppression/equality cards for times when they're actually warranted.

Season 2 has nothing to do with Season 1 though r0mx0 be aware of that
Gotta say they did a fine job with the first ep. I don't expect anyone to even come remotely close to Matthew Mccaunaghey s role last season ever, but that being said I think they made the series somewhat more realistic, probably a cognitive bias for me cause of the more urban place of action

I thought the first episode of Season 2 was weak as shit. Don't find myself caring about any of the characters, all seems recycled (that whole thing where he beats the bully's dad's ass is so cheesy and stupid), not a terrible show though and there's certainly room for it to all turn around but I had fairly low expectations and was still thoroughly unimpressed.
All in all, the actual plot is gonna need to be something special as it unfolds in order to turn it around because none of the actors are fantastic like last season and the directing is a full tier worse than last season (they lost the awesome Asian guy who directed the first season).

we went from complicated, twisted and dark plot to a joke. Rachel hiding knifes Commando style, cop on edge kicking some guy cause someone is laughing at his fat son. I guess we should be shocked when he called his son fat pussy in front of the school, probably the most shocking moment of ep 1. Vince Vaughn ... cmon, suits this role same way as fkin Owen Wilson would... . And the guy eating viagra to get a blowjob with post war syndrome, "we served the country" haha not sure what was the intention, looks like fkin director wanted to throw every known modern stereotype into this ep. And finally last but not least - commercial of Pornhub during raid on this house full of porn webcams, LOL i guess they paid shit loads of money for that :D I will not mention stupid ass fkin names of both daughters cause I like this greek shit a lot.

Mr.Robot (fkn sweet), Breaking Bad, Vikings, Got, Better Call Saul, Netflix version of Daredevil, Wayward Pines, Gotham, Sherlock, House of cards and Fargo (mmm soo good).
If you like Anime, I can mention the top ones for that as well: Parasyte The Maxim, Hunter x Hunter, Full Metal Alchemist, Stein's Gate, Death Note, Shingeki no kyojin, Psycho pass, Nanatsu no taizai, Fate stay night, Akame ga kill and Tokyo ghoul.
Ok, that should be plenty, happy watching xD

Hey all, do Yourself a favor , and right after next ep start watching Peaky Blinders, fkin epic - and 2nd season is a pure gold!
I cannot stand, and I do not understand who came up with a fkin break through role idea for Vince Vaughn after all these masterpieces of cinema like:
The Internship, Delivery Man,The Watch ( not a fkin GOT night watch), Fred Claus, Wedding Crashers, Starsky & Hutch, Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story
Just when they set a bar so high with Woody and Mathew in 1st season, Christ!!!!!!!!!
He was so weak in first ep with these cheesy fkin one liners, and stupid ass fkin advises, cmon!!!!!

^ Weird, thought he was pretty cool and solid, I liked him. Maybe you just have a hard time seeing him in that light.
Like, think about a show that's seen as super great, like the new Daredevil, that guy that works with daredevil (the other lawyer), how insanely bad of an actor is he? Like a 2,4 out of 10, extremely bad.
Most shows have lots of actors that shouldn't be there, compared to the people around them.

Its not his actual son though. Its his step son, whom was conceived by rape and clearly Farrell is having issues raising the boy. His wife isnt coping well, he wants the kid to be tough and strong but all he sees is this fat ginger who ruined his and his wifes life.
I think im really going to enjoy the development of business corruption through Vaughn and everyone he "touches"
I have higher hopes for this season then last after this episode. I think the director is trying to create more issues that people can relate to.
Also, Rachel McAdams likes it in the butt!

What the fuck ????
They were able to pay Matthew Mccaunaghey in the year he won an oscar and had a role in the other oscar nominee The Wolf of Wallstreet making him the highest paid actor at that time I highly doubt they didnt have the budget for Colin Farrell.
Why, what ?!
Would be even worse if they somehow show him alive and saved in the next episode, there is no way you survive two shots from a double barrel shot gun and one at point blank

blood stain on the floor, so he was shot with hard ammo, almost felt asleep, nothin new, story in a bed at the beginning was just bad script, shit, i know the problem now, it is not a bad actor - his lines and script are shitty.
Looks like they are trying to keep Vaugn in this coocky white collar badass role, but it can be only done with Statham i think, 2nd ep - beside the shocker at he end GOT style, still shitty as fuck.
^^^^ disagree completely. I thought it started slow, but really took off.
scene with Vince having his goons kick the shit out of a guy that either owed him money or was running a book on his turf was great.
Interesting ritual masks now in both seasons. Weird sexual rituals in both seasons. Did Vince send him there on a tip, or did he know that a killer was there. He seemed pretty insistent that he go, but I think thats because hes destitute after his deal went south and hes desperate for answers.
Do the powers that be actually want the case solved??
Farrell sees all the blood on the ground and then snap holsters his weapon. Total wtf moment for me, im glad hes dead, his character was depressing.
Looking forward to how it develops, might not live up to last season but I havent been disappointed so far.

yep, I must say , salt bag idea is about right, this blood stain is not in a place on the floor where he got shot it is closer to the shooter and looks dry, it is under this hanging handcuffs, so I am assuming that some girl was hanging there and something went wrong, each shot in slow motion - no blood at all, no blood on the shirt , so long live the King, just to save the show later on

Hes doing some heavy carrying so far, would be a shame if he was dead. Would also be kinda cool, since that makes every character expendable at any moment
I was ~95% sure he was dead within 1 minute of watching the scene

So far I find Vince's serious demeanour kinda... awkward?
Not bashing the show at all, it's only started - just find it doesn't quite fit yet. I suppose it's hard to forget all his past roles and envision him in a brand new gangster setting.
And ya, I'm with tom. I literally stood up and said WTF. But we can only hope it was salt, cuz ya, he was definitely carrying the show so far.
@dna - not even close imo, starks beheading trumps the balls out of this.
I just don't find vaughns character intimidating at all. The other crazy bastard (farrell), yes. Never mess with a psycho.
vince vaughn is awkward and borderline terrible. that scene where he was sitting in the bad was weird as fuck. feels like he's trying to act out the role of serious dude then just playing it naturally.
if he survived that shot then he must have been wearing body armour obv otherwise he'd have a hole through his chest
if poker is dangerous to them i would rank sports betting as a Kodiak grizzly bear who smells blood after you just threw a javelin into his cub - RaiNKhAN
pretty much lost interest after this episode. Every single scene seems sooooo try hard.
They are forcing the character's issues down our throats, trying to make them appear...relatable and edgy. Last season those characters were telling a story, and any personalty traits just created intriguing view points. This season feels like it could be any number of shows on USA, bad characters welcome.
Maybe they will end up having a joint operation because of the weird animal rituals and Woody will come out to LA and save the season.
it is so bad, and so boring... and still Vince is just an idiot playing out this badass role, haha scene with the fatso, oh my, of course mexican, black guy and fatso from hawaii, this show cant get any worse , or can it? hahahah hahahahah looks to me like just before shooting Vince probably watched the Dark Knight hahah and the pencil scene

Not going to let this episode slide purely off the firefight massacre/everyone gets domed in the head at the end
This episode for me to just really cemented in my mind that the show thus far is fucking terrible. I'm now totally on the Vince Vaughn can't play a serious role worth a shit train. The dialogue in just about every scene in that episode was weird/awkward. The character development is stupid and pointless. I feel like the guy who wrote the script is living high (literally) off of the success of season 1 and just decided fk it, I'm just gonna write this one while I'm on drugs because I'm awesome at this!
Sorry guys, it's 5am here and I'm rambling but God such tilt

same here, bad as fuck, boring as fuck , he went GOT style, after 3 fkin boring as heel eps he decided to place red wedding in LA, ridicoulous!!!!! bad acting, bad casting, bad fkin song, bad scenes, gay shit? really? hahaha oh my, crying in Taxi? wtf... so bad, tilt over the top, not sure if I will force myself to watch fkin 5th ep... jesus!!!
The biggest problem in my opinion is that they started telling the story in the middle.
There was no build up with Vince, we didnt see things develop for him so now I couldnt care less that his deals have gone sour. All the drama is being spurred by the characters and not the story.
4 episodes, most action packed scene of the season, yet we had never even met the antagonist.
Has a critically acclaimed tv show ever completely recast the show going into the second season? At this point they are just tarnishing the first season.

They chased him in episode 3 end brah, doesn't matter im nit picking here anyways other things are quite accurate, they tried to use the same scheme like they did with Harrelson and Mccaunaghey however their characters were muuch muuch different and deep. For example McCaunaghey's character was a sick well read pessimist who was able to defend all of his point of views through dark Schopenhauer statements, he was legit, while Colin Farrel's character is just meh - a cliche story of a cop that went corrupt due to certain circumstances his life fell apart and he has practically given up cuz he s weak

my housemate and I like this show and find it entertaining. Might not be the best show ever or as good as S1 but I never expected it to be.
They are calling it True Detective still but with the anthology style it might as well just be a completely different show. I'm just trying to enjoy it for what it is and don't even relate it to S1.
FWIW I don't even think the first true detective was as great as you all do. Yes the two main actors were great and the first 4 episodes were some of the better TV that has been made. The story falls off significantly by the end however nearing cliche.
Looks like TD2 is going the opposite direction- hopefully starting weak but ending strong ala Fargo (I liked the whole show but it got better episode to episode).
I agree that the stories lacking, but as for bad casting and bad acting? pshh.. i'm really liking the focus on character development, there was a lot of that in s1. And It's a mystery ffs, of course we're not going to meet the antagonist until later in the season; we knew little of s1's villain until the last ~2 episodes.
There were so many unanswered questions by the end of s1, how could you praise that season while criticizing the story here
I dont know what a dt drop is. Is it a wrestling move? -Oly

GoT Season 5 was infinitely better than True Detective thus far and I thought that season was the worst in the shows history

Its going in the opposite direction of the last TD. Getting better towards the end. Vaughn and Colin decent this episode plus the plot has finally resolved
The dialogues the young guy officer has are tilting as fuck, the scene with his mom was probably one of the worst HBO scenes ever produced
Somewhat better episode overall though
Nice, Marius, Mr Robot seems pretty good it reminds me of the Millenium books series too

I'm kinda hooked on this terrible show. Also why is there some closeted homosexual on every damn show I watch nowadays? Is it really that rampant in real life? How many are there here in LP? Come out already guys it's 2015 lol
The show is great imo, not Breaking Bad or Season 1 True D. level but it's starting to get interesting

And before u call me racist. Islam is the intolerant misogynistic belief system that if it popped up in the Midwest today would be considered a backwards unconscionable cult. Sharia law?
Going to be a big step forward for mankind when that religion (religion in general but Islam is obviously the most destructive of the commonly accepted religions) dies out. Can't wait for those sands to be drained of oil. Maybe then when they run out of pomegranates they can eat each other and problem solved. God knows they have done absolutely nothing to advance mankind or even their own society. Not a single significant academic award in history for any middle eastern man. No advances in technology, civics, law, government, medicine, anything. All they do all day is waste their time praying to false gods multiple times a day and squandering their temporary oil wealth on gold toilets and 200 ft. yachts instead of using it to set up their region for a bleak and fruitless future.

The generally accepted ratio is that 10% of people are gay
I know there are probably lots of gay people out there of course and everyone including myself is perfectly fine with it. I just think media is trying way too hard to keep reminding us. Like for example Caitlyn Jenner was awarded with the Espys the "courage" award lol. Sense8 had a ton of lgbt stuff there (since one of the wachowski bros turned trans years ago). True Detective season 2, GOT, SPartacus, Mr. Robot (nice new show) and almost every show has some gays innuendo inserted into it. It doesn't ruin the show or anything but tone down with the assfucking scenes please. We get it already, it's cool and everybody's human blah blah.
I'm trying hard to derail thread

Still forming an opinion on if I actually like this season or not. It lacks a lot of depth especially compared to last season but some of the characters are pretty interesting.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us and as we let our own lights shine we unconsciously give other people permision to do the same

I was confused as well. For a moment I thought the music was coming from elsewhere on my computer. It was a terrible choice.
fuck I should just sell some of my Pokemon cards, if no one stakes that is what I will have to do - lostaccount
After falling asleep during my first two attempts to watch this episode I finally skipped forward and watched the party scene. I could have missed something, but from what it looked like Rachel Mcadams, working as a police detective, infiltrates a sex party, misrepresents herself, is confronted and then murders a guy while high on MDMA.
At least she found that missing immigrant, totally justifies murder!

Power watched the last four episodes. Enjoyed them a lot. Will most likely power watch the whole season once it's done.
The music fit the scene perfectly imo.
Vaughn started off awkward imo, but he's pretty badass now.

last episode wasn't terribad like all the other eps but still wasn't that good
I found I was constantly asking myself wtf was going on or who the hell is that person they just mentioned during that ep. This is probably just because I lose interest and find it so hard to pay attention to small details in previous episodes.
I really liked Vince Vaughn's scenes though. He channeled his inner bad guy much better than in past episodes

Yeah, was a few cool scenes, but was bored through most of the episode. Also confused a lot, + i didn't quite get what was going on at the end.
He's such a bad ass, 2 guys, ok, let's go get all the Russians alone, all tactical and clever. Been through so much shit. Then when he's in trouble, "no ill die", and he's having anxiety attacks as he's running, and a weird suicide jump in at the end, just weird.
At least make a proper attempt, i dunno, they often think of something, maybe do some trick, drive in a tunnel, drive to the police station, drive somewhere where you're higher up, so you can snipe, stop fill gass, drive really fast, refuel, take off the tracking thingy, lure them in trap, i dunno, a million things. Just felt meh.
Maybe overly critical, not sure, cos i really like that guy who got shot in the woods, think he's great, the girl is close, but she can't pull any of the stuff her character is trying to portray off, so you just get annoyed, and she ends up very bad.
I think, overall, id rate the show like 5,5 out of 10 or so, 5,8 maybe, not sure.

After a night's sleep, maybe I was a bit to hard on it, and I gave it a little lower, since I had such high hopes. Maybe in a vacuum it's a 6,3 or something, yeah, sounds more fair.

I was the opposite and I had very low expectations and actually somewhat enjoyed it. It held my attention for almost all of the episode which is not true for really any of the other episodes
but yeah the way Farrell and Vaughns' characters went out was just really dumb

I saw the first episode of that new show, Lucifer, which is more of a feel good, cheesy lines, puns, jokes, most actors looks like models etc. But enjoyed that a lot more than final episode of True, which is strange lol.

Meh, meh & meh, nothing new, cheesy ending, sad shocker that Velcoro has another child that he does not know about. I almost cired - NOT.
Times journalist - saving their good names - seen milion times. Velcoro a father of ginger fatso - another shitty filler to the plot.
I was really hoping for bigger connection on Velcoro`s murder in the name of his wife - than just a narco tard pointed by this blond hair fag.
Cabin in the woods gave us a bit hope as well - that they will go with some fucked up shit, bird heads in first ep, guy without eyes - jeeeez, these kids could be more fucked up - going Dexter style on everyone - and sister of a murderer a child of Caspere? That was the shittiest part of the story , that came out of nowhere, suppose to be a big news, and had no impact on the stry other than stupid dead of this Kid on the Airport or something.
And this cheesy line about fkin park in Southern America - white suite/white dress - fuck me, was that blink from fkin Twighlight?
And which badass gangster being captured by Mexicans and taken to the dessert does not make an attempt to move 3.5 Mln diamonds into his fkin sox or a fkin shoe - but keeping them in the pocket of his jacket for all the time and dont give a fuck knowing he will loose milion from the briefcase.
Show was a joke, feel sorry for Woddy and Matheew going as producers on this shit.

Tbh I'd say Collin Farell and Vince Vaughn played their roles really well, however the script was just insanely bad. How did this get to production i have no idea. HBO mostly produces good stuff. I doubt anyone ever expected S2 to be nearly as good as S1, but they didn't even try. I'm quite positive a 5th grader that reads thrillers in his spare times could write a 10x better script. Everything was just so average
I hope they just end the series here, they need a miracle now for anyone to take them seriously. However I think the show has been renew as there are rumours for Nina Dobrev to take part in it as welll, which would be ridiculous imo, but then again i could be biased since Vampire Diaries suck balls and etc.

Yeah I almost totally forgot about the Casper killer after watching the last episode lol. I was def getting my hopes up for some crazy fucked up shit like what went on in S1 with the antagonist.
Nope....they just present the killer like, "oh hey here is this weird nerdy looking dude that's kinda pale and looks dangerous wearing a hood over his head - he's badass!"
Probably the most disappointing part of the entire season the more I think about it

So when vaughn attacks the beaner who wants his suit, that was about the diamonds in the pocket?
Pretty sure it was just him getting killed over his ego just as this whole show was about the negative affects of self perception
