Far too late.

I think it’s generally taken to just mean a one-off in these days of wringing every last bit from any half-decent television idea.

1101010 · 2017-09-06T14:46:59.564Z

What? That’s surprising as they definitely weren’t before.

True Detective S2 is really loads better in episodes 5-8 than in 1-4.

That said I’d only watch a S3 if they somehow managed to bring both series together in some kind of unified notion.

Big fan of your choose up to 3 options here.

1101010 · 2017-09-06T14:49:06.780Z

I like how Treme is the 3rd best HBO Drama but not even the 3rd best David Simon thingie

ericthefourth · 2017-09-06T14:50:06.505Z

feel a bit bad for treme. i enjoyed season 1 but could not be cba’d with any more of it. did it run to 2 or 3 seasons?

Scott_Chegg · 2017-09-06T14:50:32.403Z

zxcvbnm:

I think it’s broken as I was able to select more than 3.

Must have got mine as I can’t select any?

I never got to see it actually. It was that period before we gave into NowTV and we never got around to checking it out.

Yeah, it was all in the news last week:

Variety – 1 Sep 17

it was pretty decent but extremely slow even by his standards, and had one annoying ziggy-esque character who kind of ruined the whole show

1101010 · 2017-09-06T14:57:31.829Z

Obviously you say Mahershala Ali and I’m going to watch it no matter that it will no doubt be fucking shit for about 50% of its run.
