    Arguably the best show on television right now. The writing and cinematography is flawless and the acting is going to stockpile awards. My head is going nuts with theories and finding all the clues in each episode. This show makes Breaking Bad look like child's play.

    The King in Yellow is now #4 best selling book on Amazon. Nic Pizzolatto is inspiring people to look into the literature that's influenced the show. I read his first and only novel Galveston and the main character also cuts out beer cans and makes little men out of them. Not sure how I feel about him re-using character's tendencies but they are his characters.

    Show is awesome. I want to rewatch it, that's how layered and detailed it is to me.

    I was a little slow to figure out the story and all the names, but the most recent episode really cleared everything up for me and the story going forward

    It was really slow in the beginning and IMO, took too much time to develop the storyline. I liked the past two episodes and I'm excited to see where the show is going.

    Exactly how i feel about the show. The last episode was great, most action yet and a plot twist.

    The 8 minute tracking shot was one of the best all time. Mark it.

    Last week was the best episode of television I've ever seen. I have to watch Walking Dead first for the wife, but I'm just waiting for True Detective at this point.

    Great show, but I expect nothing less from HBO, they have made some spectacular TV shows over the years.

    Yup. Last week's episode was one of the tautest television scenes in memory.

    MM is one of the great American actors. Never mind the fluff, his serious stuff is outstanding. Just saw Mud, he was exceptional and Killer Joe was one of the creepiest weirdest performances I've seen in a while.

    It's just about to start in the UK and this thread is getting me fired up.

    Such a great show. It's a shame the next season will have an entirely new cast. But I trust HBO to produce quality

    Amazing show, acting is top notch to go with the fantastic writing and directing. Great replay value, I've watched each episode twice in between waiting for new ones. Looking forward to sunday's ep. Apparently a reviewer who's seen all episodes thought episode 4 and 7 were the best. Can't wait.

    Can't wait for the next episode. It's all coming together now, and I'm curious to see what happens next.

    Somehow this show got even better with tonight's episode. Two hot chicks and I loved the end where Marty makes sure his gun is loaded. He does not trust Rust.

    Such a good show. HBO always finds a way for me to look forward to Sunday nights
