Wondering how half of TW will try to admonish S3 for talking about race artfully.
Mahershala is putting on a clinic for acting damn.

Considering the time and setting of the drama I don't see why anyone would whine about subtle (and some not so subtle) racism.

The vietnam vision might've been the most unintentionally funny scene that's been on TV recently.

I waited for a bit on season 2, and maybe it was because of all the negative press for season 2 that I had such low expectations that it was easy to pass that bar.

But for me it had moments of brilliance, but did have faults.

S1 was dark and gritty with excellent characters, moments of redemption, existential questions, and a satisfying ending that was perfect for the story.

S2, from what I remember, didn't have any characters that I rooted for. It was incredibly dark, and the more the characters strived forward the darker it got. It was so overwhelmingly dark that by the time it ended I thought it was excellent but I said I never wanted to watch it again. It's so bleak it leaves you with a sense of despair.

That said... there was a moment in season 2, were they rescue someone from a mansion, that was so pulse-poundingly astounding that I couldn't believe that a season had gotten that much hate with those scenes in the show. That even if a show was terrible, those scenes and build up of the tension, would be enough to give it a passing grade. So, I talked to all my friends that hated S2 and none of them even made it to that part of the story.

I haven't started s3.

I'd wait till next week then for the finale to be out before starting. I'll say that in my opinion noir detective shows suffer during a non-binge watch. S3 started to meander in the middle episodes, with little progression on the case, with multiple timelines. It'd work much better in a straight watch through.

Yea, that's an obvious flaw with a multiple timeline mystery. You're not going to be able to figure out anything from the first or second timeline because obviously the detectives didn't.

Agreed. Ali was awesome as well.

Overall it was much better than S2, but S1 still reigns supreme.

S1 is like trying to fill a size 17 white boi

edit: S2 is good but the pacing is ****ed. i might rewatch again - S1 i've rewatched maybe three times and it doesn't get old. how many sequels have been worth a while? S3 is a nice "come on in the waters fine" for nick pallizino.... come back fren we want dark stuff. send your ideas to the wire guy or some ****, or scoop up some dropout druggie pleb from ivy school fine art dept
