Quote

The cast is “back together” relatively early, which means the phrase “Whole Episode About George Senior” need never be uttered ever again. But the cure is worse than the disease. Some subplots take forever. People keep going to Mexico, then coming back from Mexico, then going back to Mexico again.

I mean they already lampooned this in season 2, so I don't see this as an issue lol. They go back to Mexico like three times in one episode.

but these Rust monologues are killing me!

Rust monologues are best part of show!

The back and forth dynamic between them is the heart and soul of the show. I have nothing bad to say about Truth Detective Season 1.

Just stop after the first season and pretend the second doesn't exist.

A bit yucky.

Not that I won't watch season 5.

Tasty · « **Reply #15245 on:** May 24, 2018, 12:45:21 PM »

I was fine with all the monologues until the last one, which felt really out of place.

Then I read that the writers came up with that monologue first and wrote the show to get there, and it all made sense.

yep, writing on fleek. I’m so glad they skipped a lot of the cruft while having solid worldbuilding, cause the beginning of the book wasn’t great.

I can learn to enjoy them in a campy way. I'm sure the writers realize they're sort of ridiculous because even Harrelson's character keeps telling Rust to "shut the fuck up"!

dude, what? if you don't like his monologues how can you like the show?

Finally something good happens this season! The show was starting to get annoying, it's been nothing but anguish and on the nose liberal talking points. Now we got somewhere.

why is Thomas Janes' character obsessed with this bitch he never met? I'm halfway through season 2 of the Expanse and he's still hung up on this dead bitch. Did i miss something ? Or are they simply pandering to weirdo nerds that obsess over women that never knew they existed?

He wants to find her cause his life is shit and he's got nothing else to focus on. It's like when doctors fall in love with their patients because they get too emotionally invested in trying to save them. It's more like he's obsessed with the quest of solving her disappearance than obsessed with her specifically though.

i always try to limit what i say about it by calling it "that short lived couple episode show where John Goodman plays an amazing President and Gus from Psych is there for some reason but not funny" and i hope people won't bring it up again, but boy do people bring it up at least once

I mostly in favor in keeping artists personal beliefs separated from their work... but she genuinely deserved to be called out by the network. I imagine the show started to have a lot of internal problems given her behavior.
