i know it's peak loserdom to miss a mongolian message board 10 years ago, but this show was the last show i can remember most of /tv/ watching at once, at least, thread and bump count wise. maybe chernobyl/game of thrones beat it towards the end, but fuck, i enjoyed watching s1-s2 that summer

Just watch it or not. Form your opinion on the season as a whole. You don't even understand. And evidently if you are this kind of person, you were never going to understand. Season 2 is above your comprehension as is 3.

Classic case of Season 2 syndrome.
Season 1 is masterpiece that is an assemblage of ideas that have been brewing around in the creator's heads for decades. Season 2 is whatever they can come up with in the time between and ideas that weren't good enough for season 1.
You see it a lot and the better the first season is generally the more the second season misses its mark.
It also is a case of predecessor syndrome though. I think that if Season 2 had come out first it would've been better received, but season 1 is so good that it makes season 2 look bad.

Exactly. If you dont understand the premise of the show, these protagonists are flawed to not say outright, morally bankrupt, same as their city.

Bezzerides is a sex addict who cant stop herself from sleeping with every man she meets, unable to trust nobody, she has anger problem, she is abrasive, has gambling debts, has problems with autority, etc.

I do think S2 would be remembered more fondly if it wasn't for S1. I don't think the ending has anything to do with it though. S2s main problems are
>too many characters
>poor pacing
>mystery presented poorly
With more planning and working it could've lived up to the first season. The setting, characters, aesthetic and mystery all work together like S1 but not enough time is given to establish it well enough. Ideally they'd have cut gay cop and McAdam's scenes and focused on Velcro and Vince.
S2 needed more time.

And yet something Nic Pizzolato came up with in like a week or two at best is better than 99 percent of what's produced out there. Really makes you think. I loved Season 2. I rewatch it every year. Caspere knew I could've been different, Raymond.

It's still true but some women avoid the wall for a bit longer than usual. She looked really great but that's just the fact that she played this tough bitch character that was a huge tsundere and short hair really complimented her facial structure.

Worse take ever.
All the protagonist all share the one single theme of existential anguish. To cut any of them out would make for a less compelling story.

S2 is perfect.
Season 1 was Cohle daydreaming about how life is shit. Season 2 is actually the protaginists living a shitty life for different reason.

Season 2 resonates with some of us on a deeper lvl Season 1 can only dream of.

It is that simple, anon.

When you skip the female scenes from shows and films, many meh / good ones become kinos.
I know is annoying to have to skip many times, but in the future with AI you will be able to do your own remasters / remakes of your kinos as you want them to be.

I used to say people overreacted to this season being bad but following a recent rewatch it really is weak. Scrap the girl boss and gay cop and if might have been salvageable. I still find the plot incomprehensible and what Iโ€™ve come to understand isnโ€™t even very interesting.
