The hype has been so extreme with this show that it's not surprising that people/critics are slamming the second season.

I liked this first episode and I thought it had the requisite menacing noir atmosphere we've come to expect.  It's not clear yet whether the characters will be as compelling although there's a lot of promise so far.

Just got through ep 2 and I get the feeling I'll have to watch the whole damn season all over once it's finished.

Sure feels like it.

I wouldn't know...











































Because I don't watch that hacky shit.

Just so you know, I support feminism, mostly by having body-image issues.

Fuck you!

The interesting lines fly by and it's not involving. The pacing is weird.  They will get it together.

Also, S2 ep2 - I guess that's to keep us from bailing this early. OMG!

Oh Yeah - SPRINGFIELD!

The dialogue this week?  Terrible.

I'm still not sure what to think of this season. I don't really give a shit about the dialogue, but the story is still confusing (but starting to make a tad more sense).

Colin Farrell = broken, dirty cop, but, perhaps on the way to redemption (btw, cheap ass ploy to have the audience think he's killed only to make it not be the case; plus the awkward Lynchian dream sequence to start things off)
Rachel McAdams = tough, bitter, don't fuck with me or I'll kill you woman police officer, but dealing with her own vices, demons, and what not
Taylor Kitsch = closeted gay state trooper out of his element yet, is in his element
Vince Vaughn = tough guy underworld type who has to get his hands dirty after so many years of being out of that realm

I think Vaughn does not pull off his character that well and the story tries too hard to show the underbelly of Vinci and how fucked up humans, wealthy or poor, are in terms of their motivations and how fragile their psyches are

nice!

I'm fairly well rounded.  I'm not just the trainwrecking sexual deviant I portray myself as in Gen Disc.

yes, you do have your moments.

I happen to find nothing wrong with the dialogue.  I like the weird Lynch-y shit that's not too Lynch-y.  Ferrell is great and Vince is not bad, and his wife's hella hot

[The Shocker]

Maybe it's a California thing?  I was fine with last season's dialogue.

I also appreciate them not following a formula
