Whatever you are watching now sucks. Immediately stop watching that and catch up on HBO's True Detective, which is the second best show I've ever seen.

Also change the name of this forum to include TV, which is now better than movies.

We are watching Jaws.

Is True Detective better than Jaws?

Nothing is better than Jaws.

It's not as good as The Wire or Breaking Bad. But it's pretty good so far!

Having seen episode four, I would like to retract anything I might have said to "limit" the show. Thank you.

I think its better than the wire. But I respect your opinion and value your input.

Over the past week I have watched all 52 episodes of the original Speed Racer cartoon. Are you telling me it's better than that?

Well, TD is over, at least for this year. Apparently the next season will feature all new actors and characters. I don't feel too good about that, because TD for me will always be Rust and Cohle, and eight of the most perfect episodes of television I've ever seen.

I am waiting for someone to say they didn't like it. That it was pretentious or something. I am waiting to fight that person.

It was magical, transcendent, and triumphant. We easily transitioned into saying "TV is better than most movies nowadays!"

True Detective was better than every movie I've seen in years. (Except maybe The Master, but that's my deal here, Wade.)

I didn't love it. Liked it a lot, especially at the start, but I didn't love it.

In fact by the end it's a highly watchable mess.

I love the fact that the day after I closed registrations, someone posted from out of the blue with a REASONABLE TAKE.

Look.

All of us know you're either Kent, an ex or Woody Harrelson, so just fucking fess up.

Yes. This is all correct, of course, but McCongahey broke acting, the 6th person to do so. In fact, I am going to bump that thread. BUMP CHUDDER.

I want to post more about True Detective.

Season two will have good actors. I heard Brad Pitt. I bet it's Brad Pitt and Ashley Judd. CALL ME CRAZY

Season three will be Leo DiCaprio and someone that Leo picks that won't overshadow him.

Aaron Paul will absoluuuuuuuuuuuuuuutely be on season 3 or 4 or 5.

But the thing is, nobody cares except that Woody and Matt knocked it out of the park. God, I love th--

I want to WRITE for this show.

8 seasons? Look, we're getting 8 seasons of True Detective.

I feel I could write a good season 11. Adam Cadre could take season 4, and I could write season 11.

Season 11 has you working with a prop comic and Alexis Venton, but I feel I could get to 90% of with that, which is like 90% of light speed.

Let me write.
