Way better than last season.  Similar to season 1 but that doesn't bother me.  I have some idea WTF is going on unlike WestWorld where I'm basically lost but still watching.

  • my favorite exchange so far is when Woodard was being questioned by Hays and West West: “Do you like kids, generally?” . Woodard: “What the hell is the right answer to that?!”

  • jesus fucking christ man...are you a complete fucking idiot? you completely left off alexandra daddario's tits... fucking hell.

  • Seriously, that shootout didn’t get you excited? And Stephen Dorff is so great in this. I’m interested how they lazily pinned this on the Indian trashman. And did the Dad take the fall in 1990? I swea

Kinda slow episode until the end.

Show is good for helping me fall asleep. I know the series will be good overall and the scenes that seem pointless to me will end up being important, but it’s losing me...  The detectives even discuss things so slowly, with not a lot of words, and vaguely.  I might just wait until series is done to watch it all. 

Or they, oh I don’t know, took her fingerprints in school like they did when I was in elementary school because of all the overhyped kidnappings and “stranger danger” stuff.


Ha! I was right. The police working with Hays and West in 1980 mentioned tonight that the local school printed all the students a couple of years earlier.

Next week looks action packed.

High school kid chased Will.  Will fell and fatally hit rock.  “Friend” with dead eye and “aunt” found him and placed him in cave. They ran off with Julie. 

That scene with the Viet Cong standing behind old man Hays was pretty haunting.

There was a guy in a suit there too. And at one point Hays stands up to go to the window and pats the guy in the suit on the shoulder and apologizes. I didn’t recognize him from any of the 1990 team of investigators, but I am thinking someone dies in 1990 and Hays feels responsible for it.

I find myself fucking around on my phone during this show because I cannot for the life of me stay awake if I just try and watch with no distractions.

i probably understood 20% of what he was saying in that scene.

This memento timeline sucks. Sucks in westworld and sucks here.

I like it.  The difference here is that they aren't trying to trick you.  The timelines are clearly different and they want you to know when its 1980, 1990 and 2015.

The time jumps don't really bother me.  It's not that hard to follow from that aspect.  The dialogue is way to slow for me.  No matter who is talking they seem to be at half speed.

I'm really liking this season, but that scene felt ridiculous to me. 

I think Roland has the same bulldog face in every 1980 scene.  

The uncle is almost certainly a child predator and he made a deal to kidnap/sell Julie Purcell to the “aunt”.  Will Purcell got in the way and was killed. 

Julie pops up in 1990, and the aunt’s group immediately had the uncle killed to tie up a loose end. 

The real question now is who’s the aunt, and who’s in her group.

I'm in the same boat...going to use closed captioning from here on out. Can't wait for the opening of the next episode.

She hinted at having done some bad things in her past. She always wanted to be a writer. She became a famous one for publishing the account of the crime.

The ghost in the suit is the uncle who Hays killed in '90 for reasons we'll find out.  Hays and partner covered it up.  News person showed him the picture, but he's forgotten he did it.

What's the relationship between the son and the doc interviewer?  They seem to know each other beyond the interview.

x2. Although, as alluded to earlier in this thread, I think those ghosts represented all the people he's killed in his past.

Yeah don’t listen to the Vanity Fair’s Still Watching: True Detective podcast episode 4 if you don’t want to spoil Season 3. 

Without giving too much away,  the Hoyts are involved.

I don't remember the Hoyt's.  Were they interviewed in one of the first 3 episodes?  I knew the mom worked there but that's all I recall about them.

I like the way the Hay's settle their fights.

I don't believe so. When Hays and Roland stopped by the plant I think they were informed by someone from the corporation (CFO or general counsel perhaps) that the Hoyts were out of the country on safari. I think they also learned during that interview that the corporation had made some kind of contribution to the Purcells following the disappearance of the kids.

Man...if they connect these two story lines and in the 4th and final season MM and Woody reprise their roles to finally bring down the Yellow King, I will be all in.

Yeah Scoot is great.

Don't forget he was also the unnamed DEA narrator in Narcos: Mexico and will likely be central as the main DEA guy in the next season.

SIAP but he's also in the new Nicole Kidman movie Destroyer (which is awful, BTW).
