|
Jul 06th 2015 | 110

The musical cues got very annoying. |
|
Jun 21st 2015 | 3
|
 Yeah the soundtrack is so heavy handed. |
|

 i didn't notice it |

 Only the girl in bar... |

 it was like that in parts of Season 1 too |
|
Jun 22nd 2015 | 7

  Now I'm going to have to re-watch |

How anyone could really criticize anything after one episode... |
|
Jun 22nd 2015 | 11
|
 1st season was pretty meh til the ep 4 shootout. |
|
Jun 22nd 2015 | 12
|
  Speak for yourself. |
|
Jun 23rd 2015 | 23

 I think it would've been different watching as it happened. |
|

 Dont act brand new |
|
Jun 22nd 2015 | 13

 I stand my the complaint I made earlier in the thread |
|
Jun 22nd 2015 | 20
|
was aiight |
|
Jun 22nd 2015 | 14
|
I enjoyed the season premiere last night and looking forward to this sea... |
|
Jun 22nd 2015 | 17
|
i was way more intrigued by this than the first season opener |
|
Jun 22nd 2015 | 18
|
I enjoyed it, but I went into it with lowered expectations |
|
Jun 22nd 2015 | 19
|
How bad is Vince Vaughan tho? I just thought everyone |
|
Jun 23rd 2015 | 22
|
 Didn't think he was bad at all & glad to see him playing it straight |
|
Jun 23rd 2015 | 24
|
 lol i really do feel like i watched a different show than most people |
|
Jun 23rd 2015 | 25
|
Crow just went ham |
|
Jun 28th 2015 | 26
|
 Damn, tell me about it, I kinda wanna watch that ep again. |
|
Jun 28th 2015 | 27
|
 Lol (spoilers) |
|
Jun 28th 2015 | 28
|
 Outside of that last scene |
|
Jun 28th 2015 | 29
|
kind of a dilemma |
|
Jun 28th 2015 | 30
|
 I'm saying, I thought the potential for that character was high |
|
Jun 29th 2015 | 32
|
 rubber bullets young! |
|
Jun 29th 2015 | 37
|
 That second shot removed any sense of doubt for me. |
|
Jun 29th 2015 | 38
|
vince vaughn is the obvious weak link here. |
|
Jun 29th 2015 | 31
|
I like it, and I think Vince Vaughn is doing terrific work. |
|
Jun 29th 2015 | 33
|
 agreed |
|
Jun 29th 2015 | 34
|
 Cosign...if anything I think McAdams is the weak link |
|
Jun 29th 2015 | 35
|
  I don't think her character has been given much to work with tho |
|
Jun 29th 2015 | 51
|
   also true...but i still think it just wasn't a great casting decision |
|
Jun 29th 2015 | 55

  i thought the same thing at first, but then reconsidered that it might a... |
|
Jul 03rd 2015 | 90

  I thought she started showing real promise bantering with Farrell... |
|
Jun 29th 2015 | 61
|
 yup... |
|
Jun 29th 2015 | 42
|
 I agree, but the child crushing rats in the dark monologue was weird |
|
Jun 29th 2015 | 44
|
  Lol yeah, that scene didn't carry as much weight as the tone suggested |
|
Jun 29th 2015 | 48
|
 Agreed...I'm enjoying it so far |
|
Jun 29th 2015 | 46
|
 I thought Vaughn hit his stride in the scene where he walked across the ... |
|
Jun 29th 2015 | 49
|
  yeah he was in his comfort zone there |
|
Jun 29th 2015 | 50

 Because they believe that it's "pretentious" and can't hide behind |

I noticed it 1st episode, then it came back in the 2nd, too... |
|
Jun 29th 2015 | 47

 I'mnot sure, I also saw them draw parallels with McAdams and Cohle |
|
Jul 02nd 2015 | 85

that psychiatrist was hella weird |
|
Jun 29th 2015 | 52

 see, I thought the shrink was part of the cult conspiracy |
|
Jun 29th 2015 | 54

  yep. could be. |
|
Jun 29th 2015 | 58

  the artwork in his office definitely hinted at it |

 That is a good catch. |

Jun 30th 2015 | 72

  what i thought as well...at first |
|
Jun 30th 2015 | 74

  that's the first thing the g/f said, "she's watching cuz she's into it." |

Jun 30th 2015 | 77

  I think you're on to something |

  Anyone peep the photo in the mayor's office? |
|
Jul 01st 2015 | 79

 I was focused on that rock sitting on the desk |
|
Jun 30th 2015 | 67
|
 was that a 'vulvar' (the female equiv. of phallic) reference? |
|
Jul 02nd 2015 | 88

 ha! first thing the g/f said about the rock, "it's cuz it's a vagina." |

 Keep in mind it's LA this season...there will be a new weird character |

Jun 29th 2015 | 56

So the missing girl had to be one of the club prostitutes? |
|
Jul 02nd 2015 | 83

 she went missing while working at the religious place |
|
Jul 04th 2015 | 91

 Naw she worked there and left to take a new job |
|
Jul 06th 2015 | 100

prob means nothing but early in episode one camera makes a point |
|

 Might have been a nod to David Lynch |

 wasn't that where Caspere is found? |

the initial negative reviews were so full of horseshit. shit is fire. |

Jul 05th 2015 | 95

extremely slow episode, Vince slowly becoming more believable |
|
Jul 05th 2015 | 96

this season is making me quite apoplectic |

 When Vince's character threw the word back at him |

Jul 06th 2015 | 111

 they're laughing at their own jokes |

Jul 06th 2015 | 113

 shit was absurd |
|
Jul 06th 2015 | 121

vince vaughn has become unintentional comedy at this point. |
|
Jul 06th 2015 | 98
|
 was the mayor's son intentional or unintentional comedy? |
|
Jul 06th 2015 | 99
|
 The mayor mentioned the son was a screw-up |
|
Jul 06th 2015 | 101
|
  The sad part is the Mayor of Vernon (Vinci) actually lives like that |
|
Jul 06th 2015 | 102

   That's interesting. |

  yeah the Russian gangster Osip that Vince is dealing with |
|
Jul 06th 2015 | 108

  him being a screw up is fine |

Jul 06th 2015 | 114

I get the impression people just don't WANT Vince to be serious. |
|
Jul 10th 2015 | 140
|
 I don't get the Vince hate |
|
Jul 10th 2015 | 142
|
 Vince is giving, at worst, the second best performance on the show. |
|
Jul 10th 2015 | 145

Do people really hate this or is it just cool? |
|
Jul 10th 2015 | 141

 I think the problem is S1 set the bar so high... |

Jul 10th 2015 | 144

 I don't hate it. I'm bored with it. |

  ^^^ the correct answer ^^^ |
|
Jul 10th 2015 | 148
|
  exactly. |
|
Jul 11th 2015 | 153
|
 season 1 was GOAT season of a series status... |
|
Jul 10th 2015 | 147
|
 As others have said, don't hate it, there's just too much going on |
|
Jul 10th 2015 | 149
|
  it's like 8 different shows |

I'm really trying to like this season |

 it's reminding me of the sopranos |

as much as I'm enjoying this season I often find myself confused. |
|
Jul 13th 2015 | 169

 This season has some poor editing/sequencing |
|
Jul 13th 2015 | 170

  The editing between scenes has been occasionally jarring. |

 The killer is Caspere's kid. Has to be. |

Jul 14th 2015 | 178

 Don't forget McAdams father issues |

|
  I meant Frank. Here's a read from the WSJ breaking it down: |
|
Jul 14th 2015 | 193
|
 I just don't buy it. What was the reason for him killing Stan? |
|
Jul 14th 2015 | 196
|
 Yeah, their motive explanation is shaky |
|
Jul 14th 2015 | 198
|
 Stan stumbled onto something we don't know about yet. |
|
Jul 14th 2015 | 199
|
 I don't buy that it's Chessani, because... well, it makes no sense. |
|
Jul 14th 2015 | 200
|
 right....but he's definitely involved somehow |

Jul 14th 2015 | 201

 right? Seemed like a dream sequence. |

Jul 15th 2015 | 207

  That's exactly what I said to my wife. "Is he dreaming all of this?" |

Jul 20th 2015 | 229

  Reading the Closed Captioning |

Jul 21st 2015 | 240

  Any sorts of these subtle dramas... |
|
Jul 21st 2015 | 243
|
  It was "coose/cooze"..basically called her a cunt. |
|
Jul 21st 2015 | 234
|

Jul 20th 2015 | 225

  i didn't give it a chance because it bored me for 3 eps |
|
Jul 21st 2015 | 249
|
 It's where I'm at |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 335
|
the last 10 minutes finally led to some intrigue, then you end it? with ... |
|
Jul 20th 2015 | 222
|
are they doing these cheesy 80s episode endings on purpose? |
|
Jul 20th 2015 | 226
|
Still digging it, still baffled why those who don't like it are watching... |
|
Jul 20th 2015 | 228
|
 I can't wait to see this Eyes Wide Shut orgy |
|
Jul 20th 2015 | 230
|
  you've never heard of someone finishing a book they didn't like? |
|
Jul 21st 2015 | 235
|
 Unless it's for a school assignment? No, I've never heard of that, lol. |
|
Jul 21st 2015 | 242
|
 I'm interested enough to see how it ends |
|
Jul 21st 2015 | 256
|
 It's pretty simple; closure. |
|
Jul 20th 2015 | 231
|
  I'm just holding out hope for her getting naked |

 re. the knives... was rewatching a season 2 trailer from May |
|
Jul 21st 2015 | 237

 Let's not act brand new here, dude |
|
Jul 21st 2015 | 248
|
  Yep. |
|
Jul 21st 2015 | 254
|
  Here's the thing I absolutely don't understand. |
|
Jul 22nd 2015 | 259
|
 more than halfway thru it and not much else to watch |
|
Jul 21st 2015 | 250
|
how does shit this poorly written get greenlit? |
|
Jul 21st 2015 | 238
|
 The best explanation I've read... |
|
Jul 21st 2015 | 244
|
 I think it's more NP buying too much into peoples love with R.Cohle last... |
|
Jul 21st 2015 | 251
|
 I mean, is that honestly an explanation? |
|
Jul 21st 2015 | 253
|
I'm tired of people coming in here just to shit on the show |
|
Jul 21st 2015 | 239

Jul 21st 2015 | 245

  this is my big issue |
|
Jul 21st 2015 | 252

 IT'S BORING AND CLUMSY. NOT THAT DEEP FAM. |

 Like you said earlier on in the thread |

  Oh, that dude is the exception, not the rule. |
|
Jul 23rd 2015 | 264

  That chandelier was too damn creepy to forget |
|
Jul 24th 2015 | 277
|
 Wow. Awesome read. Will definitely check these weekly |
|
Jul 23rd 2015 | 269
|
I'll be honest, Guerneville disappointed me -- the setting, specifically |
|
Jul 22nd 2015 | 261
|
 To be fair, re: setting... |
|
Jul 23rd 2015 | 266
|
  DP's don't get enough credit. |
|
Jul 23rd 2015 | 267
|
   Great point. |

  yeah, exactly -- that's what I was trying to get at |

 even when S1 was boring, it was ALWAYS incredible to look at |
|
Jul 23rd 2015 | 273
|
 Shoot, it didn't even look like Guernville |
|
Jul 23rd 2015 | 272
|
 right? it was almost like they just hit a weird neighborhood outside LA |
|
Jul 23rd 2015 | 275

Season 2 is a huge disappointment. |
|
Jul 23rd 2015 | 263

 the dialogue is awful |

 i feel bad for dude cuz he is doing savior work on a subpar season. |
|
Jul 26th 2015 | 285
|
 He's such a beast. Always has been. |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 288

 This latest ep & the opener are certainly showcases |
|

Jul 26th 2015 | 280
|
  it was the second before she grabbed the knife |
|
Jul 26th 2015 | 281
|
  ya I must've missed it as well |
|
Jul 26th 2015 | 283
|
  yeah it was a quick shot. young chessani, osip, mccandless + the chief. |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 292
|
 how could the chief show up to that posh event w/that haircut tho? |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 299

 He's a natural |

Rapist looked like old luke wilson |

Jul 26th 2015 | 282
|
 I thought it was Will Last Man on Earth Forte |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 323
|
party scene was good but the music was grating on me. |
|
Jul 26th 2015 | 284
|
 I thought the music was easily the best part. Exceptional scoring. |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 287
|
 came here just to say -- what the fuck was that string music?? |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 289
|
  liked it but I'd be lying if I didn't expect more ecstasy from the molly |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 290

 If it's Ani's first time... |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 307

 I was waiting for Cary Grant and Ingrid Bergman to show up. |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 291
|
  right...it seemed like a nod to Hitchcock, but it felt misplaced |
|
Jul 30th 2015 | 341
|
 it sounded like they ripped it off from scooby doo |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 293
|
  I wouldn't be too mad |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 296
|
 It totally threw me off at first |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 294
|
  like patio music? lol |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 298
|
 The music made more sense |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 302
|
 that'd be an odd choice for sex party music though lol |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 312
|
 Personally didn't have a problem with it/thought it was neat |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 305

 i thought Quincy M.E. as gonna show up with another dose of Molly |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 311

 they told the music supervisor "ominous secret society orgy music" |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 319

 lots of d. lynch/surrealist nods this season |

|
that red headed kid man... |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 295
|
 When Velcoro tells him the most imp. thing ever and he shrugs/eats pizza |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 300
|
 He's terrific. One of the best parts of the show, weirdly. |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 314
|
 If the redheaded kid had his own spin-off |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 337
|
 he's VERY real |
|
Jul 30th 2015 | 343

Loved everything about this episode |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 301
|
 Yeah completely on board now. |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 303
|
 they've focused on the story and deviated from the personal lives |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 308
|
 Also |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 330
|
 damn didnt even think of that... |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 332
|
So is Vince Vaughns character suppose to be weak? |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 304
|
 I dunno about weak, just more emotional and moral than |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 306
|
 I don't think he's weak... |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 310
|
 his time out of the game will make anyone test him... |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 313
|
  I don't think what he did in that situation was wrong. |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 324
|
 More desperate than weak. He needed that girl. |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 315
|
 In all these responses |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 316
|
 Naw, he was in between a rock and a hard place |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 326
|
 He's a bit like Carlito to their Benny Blanco |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 327

why was she the only one seeing things and barely able to walk? |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 318
|
 Figured that was just a first timer thing for Bez |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 322
|
 I think it was partly cuz she was in a fierce flashback / anxiety attack |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 339
|
 and she wasn't the only one...ole girl in the bathroom was out of it too |

 I totally agree w/ this, but with only 2 hours left, can't imagine this ... |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 333
|
 Also, murder in the shed... |
|
Jul 27th 2015 | 334

 I mean, most redheads don't have a red headed parent. Right? |

Jul 27th 2015 | 338

 I feel like it's safe to say that Burris did it. |

"Cisco kid" looks like the only thing he enjoys in life is killing |

best ep of the season. Vince AND Colin acting their asses off |
|
Jul 30th 2015 | 344

now THAT is the True Detective greatness I remember |

I won't lie, I'm kinda confused |

good episode but goddamn the plot is so convoluted now. |
|
Aug 02nd 2015 | 349

 Lots to wrap up in 1.5 hours next week. |
|
Aug 03rd 2015 | 350

  exactly |

  thanks. when it gets to the kids at the jewlery store... |

Aug 03rd 2015 | 356

   because it is. It's convoluted to the point of turning me away. |
|
Aug 03rd 2015 | 383

  Great recap, pretty much accurate on all of it. |
|
Aug 03rd 2015 | 359

  Thanks SO MUCH |

 I watched Mission:Impossible 1 for the first time this weekend too |
|
Aug 03rd 2015 | 353
|
How perfect was the scene with Frank and Blake? |
|
Aug 03rd 2015 | 354
|
 "...and now you just shit on my carpet." |
|
Aug 03rd 2015 | 357
|
 it was a perfect example of how to butcher a pivotal scene |
|
Aug 03rd 2015 | 358
|
 didn't mind the slow mo...but why cut away? that was dumb |
|
Aug 03rd 2015 | 361
|
  they've done that goofy move a LOT this season |
|
Aug 06th 2015 | 390
|
 Points taken, was very satisfying for Frank fans though |
|
Aug 03rd 2015 | 364
|
 I enjoyed the shit out of that scene |
|
Aug 03rd 2015 | 380

Here's the Uproxx recap, which explains things pretty well: |

I was mad at Tim Riggings for setting up his girl and his moms in the sa... |
|
Aug 03rd 2015 | 367
|
 dude is strapped for cash...i found it funny too though |
|
Aug 03rd 2015 | 369
|
 yeah i laughed at first. still... i feel bad for his girl |
|
Aug 03rd 2015 | 373
|
 yeah her life doesn't really get worse... |
|
Aug 04th 2015 | 385
|
 even his proposal was some of the most depressing shit ever |
|
Aug 04th 2015 | 387
|
actors really hitting their stride now, although I liked S1 better, this... |
|
Aug 03rd 2015 | 368
|
 yeah i definitely think the 4 main actors are doing a great job |
|
Aug 03rd 2015 | 370
|
 It goes Farrell >> Vince >> Kitsch >> McAdams |
|
Aug 03rd 2015 | 371
|
 i really like what McAdams has been doing... |
|
Aug 03rd 2015 | 372
|
 I'd definitely put McAdams ahead of Kitsch |
|

 I was mostly up to speed, but the biz with the two orphans... |
|
Aug 06th 2015 | 393
|
Jordyn did look guilty as shit when she saw Blake |
|
Aug 03rd 2015 | 375
|
 Yeah, definitely wouldn't be surprised if she was in on it |
|
Aug 03rd 2015 | 377
|
 I'm afraid Nails is going to end up dead at Jordyn's hands |
|
Aug 04th 2015 | 384
|
 That's gonna suck. Nails might be my favorite character |
|
Aug 04th 2015 | 386

 Somehow he is going to trick the Mexicans to do the fighting |
|
Aug 06th 2015 | 388
|
 i was thiinking this too |
|
Aug 06th 2015 | 391
|
 I just can't see that, they already don't like him |
|
Aug 06th 2015 | 392
|
 i don't think he'd do it directly |
|
Aug 06th 2015 | 396
|
 What kinda angle would he use |
|
Aug 06th 2015 | 397
|
 or maybe tell the russians that the mexicans burned them down |
|
Aug 07th 2015 | 398
|
 It is a 90 minute episode |
|
Aug 07th 2015 | 399
|
I'd also encourage everyone to read James Ellroy's "LA Quartet" |
|
Aug 06th 2015 | 394

  Right. Plus, it's not like people didn't watch. |

Called it from season 1. Pizzolatto can't write worth a damn |
|
Aug 09th 2015 | 404

 The writing this season was very poor, for sure |

 You were defending the show in prior responses in this thread. |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 413

 Well I was riding for the show because of the location and history |
|
Aug 11th 2015 | 492

Really? Three emo-singer montages? |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 407
|
 ok here's where i got a little confused |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 418
|
  Caspere was fucking the kids mother, obviously for a long time |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 422
|
 ok, i TOTALLY missed all of this |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 456
|
 Yes. Father and daughter were unknowingly fucking each other |
|
Aug 12th 2015 | 493
|
 right? Frank in the desert was the equivalent of explaining a joke |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 424
|
 it was ridiculous |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 461
|
fuck it, loved it. |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 409

yeah...i don't think i was mad at much in the final eps |

 He was just about out of gas |

shit played out like an extended Law and Order episode |

i guess i'm alone in loving the gas mask heist |

 The Mexicans are tied to Tony Chessani. |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 431

 How did the Mexicans find Frank? That part bothers me |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 434

  Frank went home first, that's how they caught him. |

 Yeah, even without the diamonds I think the same thing happens |

 RE: Didn't it seem like both dudes just gave up by the end? |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 445
|
 I wouldn't say no reason. They were punking him for his suit |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 452
|
I wonder how much of the first season's backlash... |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 430
|
I still really enjoyed the season on the whole, including the finale. |
|

 Burris surviving and coming out on top was a bummer |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 438
|
  burris: but his coming out on top will be short lived |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 446
|
 Whoa... your comment just made me think of something |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 448
|
 good point |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 449
|
 it looked like he was already too far down the escalator |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 467
|
 I need to rewatch the scene on the timing... |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 472
|
 Watched that part last night...he was going down the escalator |
|
Aug 11th 2015 | 484
|
 Yeah me too. for a second i looked like he was puting his gun back |
|
Aug 11th 2015 | 490
|
 I agree with this. It was completely engrossing TV. |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 474
|
 Although most people would wince at this suggestion... |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 479
|
 I think that's fair -- the biggest problem was too many leads |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 480
|
 There's no reason for him to stick to 8 |
|
Aug 11th 2015 | 485
|
 As much as I felt this season fell flat, it's not a bad suggestion |
|
Aug 11th 2015 | 486
|
 I agree with you |
|
Aug 11th 2015 | 489
|
Also, Farrell deserves Emmy/Golden Globe noms. He acted his ass off. |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 436
|
 Easily the biggest bright spot of the season |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 437
|
 Outside of Taylor Kitch, I feel sorry for the actors |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 439
|
 This pisses me off more than anything |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 450
|
 Even Kitsch did his best. He had by far the most underwritten role. |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 451
|
 He wasn't given much material |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 459
|
  Again, I blame the material. |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 475
|
 yep |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 482
|
 I thought Kitsch was terrible |
|
Aug 13th 2015 | 497
|
more miss than hit... |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 442
|
I'm glad Nails made it |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 447
|
 ^^Beat me to it |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 458
|
i dont get why the mexicans were ever gonna let frank live |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 453
|
 Me neither |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 454
|
 Leaving him there was pretty much a death sentence anyway |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 455
|
  he could have made it back unwounded |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 457
|
   In addition |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 460
|
  i was kind of unclear on what money was where |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 462
|
  Wouldn't he have lost the diamonds if he gave up the suit? |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 464
|
  Good point. I thought it was pride only |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 466
|
  I think the core reason is still pride. |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 473
|
  agreed. i think without the diamonds, it goes the same way |
|
Aug 11th 2015 | 487
|
  yeah, he was a dead man, they were just seeing how far he would stoop |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 477
|
 watching the scene again, I still disagree |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 483
|
 100% agreed. They were going to kill him anyway, just w/o the suit. |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 478
|
Lol @ all the evidence scattered at Glen's house |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 465
|
 yep...and he's going to see Holloway RIGHT NOW! |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 470
|
 Lol the guy we literally saw for 2 seconds |
|
Aug 11th 2015 | 491
|
People dissing season 1 to rationalize season 2's poor writing |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 471
|
 That's just, like, your opinion, man. |
|
Aug 10th 2015 | 476

here's a good discussion about s2 (link) |
|

a big ol' mess. |
|
Aug 12th 2015 | 494
|
 it was the same boring, rambling message Ray had recorded previously |
|
Aug 12th 2015 | 495
|
I enjoyed the 2nd half of this season |
