True Detective, Season 3

Season 3 is actually much better than the second season it treats it slow and action packed I love True Detective it's unforgettable.

Wow, after season 2's disastrous contrivance, complete with "Russian" boogeymen, this season seemed to be capturing the gritty intensity of the first season- for a few episodes. Then it devolves into a strenous pushing of the character development and the dysfunctional relatioships, and is too slow on movement. The cops drive around, jump from suspect to suspect with over-cool dialogue and get tough. But it gets old. The clues slowly trickle in to try and surprise the viewer, but, inevitably, the story is just kind of stitched together from the swatches of the earlier episodes. It's not satisfying, and really is almost an insultingly stupid ending. The entire final episode is just dialogue in which the characters explain what happened. That's pretty disappointing that they couldn't do it with action.

What I loved about the first season shows up here and what I hated about the first season (there wasn’t much to hate) doesn’t. Very methodical, thoughtful, and intense. Among the best HBO has to offer.

This season 3 of True detective has been a real dissappointment to me , i was waiting for season 3 to come out after really enjoying season 1 and 2. This season was slow, very very slow. No action, no bite your nails kind of scenarios, just slow; too much talking too much of the same repetitive thing. Real dissappointment.

Ya know, I was dogged and exhausted by the bloat of season 2, but this season renewed my faith. Perfect bookend to season 1. Just watch it, its worth the intrigue.

What makes a series solid is the story telling. Season 1 was dynamic. Season 2 lacked a clear narrative. Season 3 put every character and multiple time lines back on track. The details include the right actors. Still gritty, raw, and sometimes sad. Law enforcement is not a glory hound career. Crime takes time. A true detective analyzes both the obvious and the hidden.. That's what makes this show different from the dumbed down networks..

Yess! True Detective as we loved it in season 1, is finally back. 🙏🏻Thank you

I loved season 1 and was disappointed with season 2. Season 3 restored my faith in this series.....It’s definitely worth watching

Finally we get another good season of TD just like the first one! Everything was well done the acting makeup plot thank you 2x Oscar award winner Mahershala Ali!!!!

Let this be a lesson to the studios: great writing and a good story are WAY more important than familiar actors. I enjoy being able to get lost in a story with new and interesting faces and without recognizing too many actors from too many other places.
