Has the dialogue been this shitty all season long?

Frank telling his wife he's in "warp drive and trying to navigate through the blur"? This is how crime bosses talk in Vinci?

Ani telling Velcoro "you're a mood ring" after her dad told him about his green and black aura? Just feeling so cheesy.

I'm rooting for Vaughn and I dig him in dramatic roles but I'm just not buying him in this one. Is he supposed to appear menacing when he delivers that "never had a cavity" line immediately after nearly begging for them to make that deal? Or is that the point?

Let's not even get into how terrible that fight scene looked last episode that ended with him taking dude's grill.

I just don't get how last season could have been so riveting and this one is overwhelmingly meh. Like others have said, this dead city manager--who gives a shit? I'll keep watching and see this through but it's not going great. Hope Pizzolatto knows what he's doing.
