Oh, I watch every ep. :lol: I'm just amazed at how amateur it all feels. It definitely reminds me of a show on CW or Syfy.

Beating a dead horse, but I'd watch it and be entertained if I hadn't read the book. My parents love the show.

Vince Vaughn rumored for True Detective Season 2?

I actually like the idea of Vaughn in this type of role. He would make a good villain, IMO.

Entertainment Weekly has a breakdown on all the rumored names for the second season.

I read the book after watching season 1. I think that helped me separate the two.

While reading (book spoiler)
Spoiler:
I kept wondering when Angie was going to get up. Cause...ya know...she isn't dead....right? Wait...Angie dies in the beginning of the book? WTF is going on here? And Junior killed her!? What the....what?
It was at that point that I realized that they took a HUGE left turn from the book.

And boy did they fatten up Sean Astin or what? He's blown up quite a bit since he was on 24 a few years back.

I decided not to watch FNS this time. After Justin largely fell off the face of the earth and that abomination of a pilot won last year, I just couldn't take any more. I'm also still annoyed about Aarti winning her season.

Aarti is really annoying. Not sure what happened with Justin, I really enjoyed him and his show idea seemed interesting, but I think I've only seen it one once or twice.

They set up Justin as possibly being the successor to Good Eats. People ate it up, and then... nothing. Other than some token appearances as a judge on shows such as Beat Bobby Flay (which I really enjoy, btw. Best new show on the FN in some time IMO), never see him.

Fine. "New". And it's still way more enjoyable than most the crap they've been trotting out.

You know, I always thought that would make a good show, but they found a way to ruin it. ;)

The Strain is turning pretty lame, I understand you have to develop characters and storylines and stuff....but the show is becoming unwatchable.
