I heard from someone who works on the production that Sigourney Weaver has also been cast.

Hell yes. Looks like we're tapping into more of Season 1's themes.

Jodie Foster solving crime in a dark, snowy setting? And she already looks awesome. Sign me up.

I've read this a few times and have no idea if he's praising or dragging Lopez.

This is a complete cash grab so far. Season 1 characters being used like MCU references is just embarrassing. No wonder Pizzolatto is pissed.

HBO hits rock bottom - a series that now glorifies mass murder (as long as it's done by native women) and romanticizes suicide as some kind of local wisdom... (Is this the showrunner's comment on the real suicide epidemic in Alaska?) Incidentally, it's been a while since I saw something so racist - all the natives deprived of psychology or intelligible motivations (only the white characters are intermittently watchable). It's progressive-regressive (science=bad, spirit world=good and so forth). The message is that we should all fall off a cliff. So should the writer/director.

"Some questions just don't have answers."
Look, I'm not as harsh on it as my fellow posters here, because I do think at the very least it was an engaging enough experience with some fantastically brooding cinematography (Florian Hoffmeister riding that TAR momentum to Emmy success next year?) and a few strong bits of acting (namely from Fiona Shaw, whose Rose Aguineau was my favourite character by far). But it felt like a Pollock-esque splatter of provoking ideas shotgunned onto a canvas far too small to handle it, and ultimately it became a smeary mess by the end. So much of the hanging threads wound up being not even red herrings, but time-sinks to pad what could reasonably have been a two-episode solution at best. And I don't even think the core mystery made a whole lot of sense timeline-wise, nor was it ultimately as fascinating as what I think it could've been.

This was an absolute mess and its absolutely insulting seeing all these critics calling this a masterpiece - and I say this as someone that was really looking forward to this season.

Sepinwall's really lost his marbles. It's like he came up with his own version of the show in his mind and decided to review that.

Kinda hilarious how Foster got her Oscar nom with the help of this and the season ended up flopping anyway.

Nowhere near as down on this as you guys are. It was definitely far too slow at points, and that finale was by far its messiest episode, but Foster and Reis were also at their peaks in their two-hander scenes; Reis really impressed me in general. I loved the atmosphere and cinemtography of this season from start to finish, and while this often did the heavy lifting to compensate for a muddled mystery, it still made for an enjoyable, moody addition to the show.
I've seen seasons 1, 3 and 4 (2 I started but couldn't get through). I think 3 may actually be the strongest overall, followed by the overrated but undeniably memorable first season, and then Night Country.

I'm not watching this yet but it can't be worse than season 2, can it?
ftr all three of Pizzolatto's seasons started better than they ended so it's not like he has a leg to stand on. Season 3 finale was unbelievably unsatisfying, and for all of season 2's embarrassing lowpoints and dialogue, its worst episode was the finale too. Even the first season which hasn't aged that well but was still monumental TV for its time had a weak conclusion.
Is it that hard to tell a complete & self-contained gothic neonoir procedural in 8-10 episodes??
