Slow, not particularly engaging…not sure it even knows where it is going

How does it compare to series 1 ( the one of the all time greats ) ?

Not a patch on it…you can’t really compare the two in terms of theme/quality. It’s like they had an idea for a series (not much of one) in a setting that involved a mystery and a detective and just decided it would be more popular if they gave it the True Detective label…its almost like an errant entry into the franchise (the way S2 was).

If season 2 and season 4 were errant to the franchise, maybe there was never really a franchise in the first place?

Watched the 3rd installment of Masters of the air last night.
Warming up nicely as a stand out series.

How can I fix it mate.

Give it a rub and stick it back in!

I thought the acting was that bad, I wasn’t sure if some of it was black comedy !

It’s nowhere near Narcos.

It's utterly terrible. I think Chat GPT wrote the script and the story

It’s like they went out onto the street and dragged in anyone who looked vaguely South American.

So what’s the overall consensus on True Detective 4 ?

Season one had a hint of the otherworldly - this hits you over the head with it from the off. Some character development of the deceased may have caused the audience to care about how they came to be. The casting is way off (apart from Kali Reis, who bosses it). The characters are rather shallow and unlikeable.

It is however rather compelling, some how.

There are elements of S1 running through the current showing. There's no denying it's hard going though. Foster barely believable as lead character.
