True Detective Season 2 Finale.

I liked it. A lot. The last episode and this one truly saved this season. There was no way that anything that they did was going to come anywhere close to season one. Having 4 leads was their first mistake this season and then the ridiculously convoluted storyline and huge batch of secondary characters added insult to injury, but for the final two episodes they cut right to the bone. We all knew exactly who the good guys and bad guys were and what the important basics of the story was.

Safe to say that if season one never existed I think that this season would have been given a lot more praise. Ya, the first 6 episodes were tough to wade through but 7 and 8 brought it all into focus.

Biggest regret for me?

Spoiler for Spoiler:
Burris didn't take a shotgun blast to the face during the final standoff with Ray. Really hated that ****er.

I agree with all of this. It's getting a lot of hate but I think in the end it came out okay. Once I found out what was going on it became a lot more interesting. I think this season might of worked better with a couple more episodes. Frank and Ray were the definite standouts for me.

Cos Collin Ferrell was a bad person in that show as was Vince Vaughn. So do we know what happened with the man in the bird hat?

Re: Bird hat guy

He was the dude wearing the hoodie in the station listening in on the police chief and Ray negotiating. He then freaked out and started going at the chief with a knife but was shot and killed by Burris.

RIP Rik Mayall. One of the very funniest --- and effortlessly so --- comedians to come out of Britain in the last twenty years. Much missed.

Currently watching:

Black Sails (have not decided if I like it yet; three/four episodes in I think)
Madame Secretary (very West Wing but very good)
12 Monkeys (Just got into this; pretty brilliant so far)
Sons of Liberty (was too short; is there another season on the way?)
Dark Matter (intelligent sci-fi)
Dominion (War against angels? How could you not like it?)
Ripper Street (About to begin season three)


To start yet:
Gotham
Witnesses
Show me a hero
Wayward Pines
Game of Thrones season four
Penny Dreadful season two
Under the dome
Lost Girl
Homeland season three
Playing the Field
Utopia season two

Waiting for the new seasons of

The Following
Brooklyn Nine Nine
Stalker
Criminal Minds
Vikings
Tyrant
Gomorrah
