True Detective is pretty fascinating. The first season was such a blockbuster for so many reasons, and it became a genuine water cooler show. That lead to season 2 being one of the most hyped seasons in quite sometime. And it was a critical BOMB. It was nearly a series killer. The fact that there was an eventual third season starring a multiple Oscar winner barely went noticed. All of that is to say there is actually much to dissect once you get past the noise and perception of the show.
