Let me start by saying this season of TRUE DETECTIVE was doomed to fail; nay, destined. Expectations were too high across the board, from #truefans who thought the series creator, Nic Pizzolatto, was the second coming of William Faulkner, to the #haterz who demanded Pizzolatto put the cap back on the can of existential worms he opened with his bayou barn burner last spring. Both camps were inevitably disappointed by Season 2, but like I said, that was bound to happen. So what did we really get from the sophomore effort of television's most controversial ride-along drama?
