True Detective: Night Country Sucked (CIB #180)

We didn’t want True Detective’s fourth season to be bad. We wanted it to be engaging and cool and fun and instead it was a poorly written series of incoherencies wrapped around a poorly conceived and poorly executed final reveal that for some reason has received near universal critical acclaim. We thus feel compelled to yell about how much this television show sucked, actually, for like the fifth time in the last six weeks. Sorry! There’s also some stuff in here about the likely murder of Russian dissident Alexei Navalny, and our usual assortment of games and silliness. Listen, if you must! Has something we said, or failed to say, made you FEEL something? You can tell us all about it on our Substack, leave a comment on the show’s page on our website, or you can send us an email here. Enjoy!
