True Detective

If you ever get the chance to watch this take it.

Series one is breathtaking. Some of the best acting I have seen for a while. The story line is riveting with the dialogue obviously written by a very intelligent and well read writer.

Had me gripped from the first episode and the ending wasn't at all disappointing - far from it.

I can only speak for series one though. Unusually each series stands alone with a different story-line and different actors.

Series One
Woody Harrelson
Matthew McConaughey

Magnificent performances from both actors but especially Matthew McConaughey.

True Detective

I loved the music too - creepy theme tune.

Re: True Detective

I tried watching first episode of series one some time ago. Didn't appeal to me.

It is very dark and won't be to everyone's taste

Re: True Detective

What an odd reply to a perfectly civil question.
I wondered if it was still available on catch up TV, that was all.

There are ways and means but some are not acceptable (of viewing stuff).

Welcome to the dark side .
