steveo21 Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 http://badassdigest.com/2013/09/09/our-next-tv-obsession-hbos-true-detective/ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8i5CR4kDjM As Breaking Bad winds down and Mad Men and Game of Thrones seem so very, very far away, it's time to find a new weekly TV obsession. And HBO may be offering it in the form of True Detective, a series starring Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson as detective on the trail of a killer. The series, directed by the talented Cary Fukunaga (Sin Nombre), looks very different from the usual crop of serial killer shows, mainly because it seems to understand that the interesting aspects of these stories involve how the investigation impacts the investigators. I've seen a lot of comparisons to Zodiac being bandied about, and I get it. This trailer doesn't reveal too much, but it reveals enough to guarantee me setting my DVR for the series, which debuts in January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chew Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Looks like this could be pretty awesome. Season premiere this Sunday, Jan 12th. HBO Folks, set those DVRs.

Chew Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Nice, seems like a lot of folks are already on board, I'm just trying to spread the word. Woody is the man, and though people give Matthew Mac a hard time because he's kinda weird, he's a good actor as well. And you know HBO is going to do it right. Now fellas, we just have to cross our fingers that Diddario eventually shows us her goods. She's got the blue eyes of an angel, and the chesticles of a goddess.

StillUnknown Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 http://screencrush.com/hbo-true-detective-trailer-premiere-season-2/ Elsewhere, series creator Nick Pizzolatto spoke to HitFix about a potential second season of the drama, which would follow a new crime story with a new cast, or potentially some returning cast in new roles, a la ‘American Horror Story.’ If they let us do another one, I’m already working on stuff. I’ve been told not to talk about that very much. But I’ll tell you what I would plan in a vague way. I see the show, if it got to continue, it being set in a different place every year with new characters, I would see it owning its landscape as an integral part of the show, and I believe I would continue to make use of the narrative conceit of a story being told, at least for some part of a season. Again, for all the reasons I’ve talked about: you get a great actor and you just let ‘em talk and you just keep the camera on him. But also, the dissonance between the story being told and what really happened. The trailers have me intrigued, really looking forward to this show.

Jumbo Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 I had forgot about this---cool. And Justified is back, with others soon to come...how sad that a once-legendary party machine has so much of his entertainment time now devoted to TV shows....I speak, of course, of Larry.

JamesMadisonSkins Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Little OT, non-spoiler comment ... but the local bookstore literally just called and said they got in the book I inquired about a few weeks ago, Dangerous Women, which was edited by Martin. It includes three novelas that take place in Winterfell 150 years prior to the events of GOT that Martin penned. I THINK (could be wrong) it's called the She-Wolves of Winterfell or something like that. For those that read the books and are yearning for more after re-reading 5 times and catching every detail, this is a very exciting development, building the backstories even further. Can;t wait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveo21 Posted January 10, 2014 Author Share Posted January 10, 2014 Not to Hijack. The fantasy epic returns to HBO on Sunday, April 6.But that’s not all. HBO is also readying the release of Thrones fourth season trailer. The full trailer will be out Sunday night right before the premiere of hot new drama True Detective, but you might not have to wait that long to see at least some of it. That sounds cryptic, but we’ll have details this weekend. The trailer is described as the “first extended look at the new season and features new characters and episodic footage” (and we hear it’s amazing). Here is a look of the making of True Detective Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
