    Anyone seen this yet? just 1 episode aired,stunning by the way.

    Looks like it will overtake all the greats breaking bad,homeland,sons of anarchy etc.....they are even talking about it taking the throne of The Sopranos..

    Matthew McConaughey is immense in movies recently (anyone seen his crazy weight loss for the cancer movie) he carries it in this and is still near unrecognisable...

    Woody Harrelson as usual on fire as always...2 actors on fire in this.

    The show is about 2 homicide detectives after a serial killer...btw

    Deffo looks like great dark * thriller.....gonna be big:50:

    Aye just mentioned it in the best TV series thread, the first episode was excellent:50:

    Thought that McConaughey and Harrelson were brilliant, yet again. Can't wait for the next episode.

    This is my favorite new show in quite a while. The great part is that it's run as an anthology. So next year will be a completely different story with different characters, meaning that the writers are able to develop a complete story and turn it into a kind of 10-hour long movie. They're definitely setting the bar high on the first go though, so hopefully this is a sign of things to come and the quality won't drop in future years. And yeah, McCoghauney has been on fire as of late.

    I always download these shows and watch then when the season is over. I hope this one can live up to the hype. Sometimes when a movie of TV show gets too many good reviews and the expectations on watching become unachievable.

    Never knew that:50:

    That sounds exciting. Obviously it would be great to keep the same characters, or at least the main two, but if the quality of writing remains then it's a winner.

    Are Harrelson and McConaughey staying on for season 2?

    I don't think so, but I could be wrong. In saying that, they'll be able to get top talent again due to the reputation of this season as well as the non-committal nature of anthologies. Excited for the new episode tonight. :icon_mrgreen:

    Just watched episode 4. Probably the best so far, my favourite anyway.

    Really tense throughout a large chunk of it and the last 10/15 minutes were amazing.

    4 excellent episodes so far. McConaughey is some actor.

    It would be good to see them back. Yeah if the rest of the series maintains the quality of the first few episodes, lots of actors will be attracted to it.

    I'd love to see David Morrissey in it.

    Agreed, amazing viewing, I haven't seen anything this good for a long time. It's like watching a really long film that you just don't want to end.
