Colin Farrell confirmed as one part of True Detective Two. Not sure if good or bad.

He can be good...I think.

It's going to be really hard for them to repeat the greatness of Woody and McConaughey.

Thinking of watching this Gracepoint show which begins on Fox in a couple of weeks, solely because Nick Nolte is in it. Yik Yak Yok.

The original BBC series with Tenant was supposed to be good. I'm going to go back and watch that one too.

Didn't know about this. Will do the same.

~wet fart~

He's awful. He can't keep up with the pace in that show in terms of acting.

Same here. Set to record.

I don't know. He's had his moments where I enjoyed him. In Bruges was solid.

Hopefully Farrell just doesn't try to hard to keep up. With all due respect to Cranston, McConaughey was robbed this year at the Emmys.

 

[Carp]

Fairly excited for Gotham tonight.

So, besides Carp, anyone else watch Gotham?

I'll answer for Carp. The show was good, they did try to force Penguin, Riddler, Cat Woman, and Poison Ivy in there...but the show is not really about them and Batman, it is about Gordon and Bullock. That was pretty good stuff. I will say that Jada Pinkett was actually pretty good too as a villain.

Not yet. Have it recorded.

Not yet. Have it recorded.

Same here, going to try and watch it today

Bruce Wayne's parents die.

Spoiler alert.

Vince Vaughn also confirmed for True Detective.

Now waiting for Owen Wilson to be cast.

 

[Kbrown]

I wish I could see True Detective (legally) without paying for it. I can't bring myself to buy an entire TV season without having seen it and knowing its rewatchability. It seems right up my alley though.

Been reading some of Thomas Ligotti's fiction lately. Ligotti is whom the creator of True Detective has been accused of plagiarizing for the McConaughey character's anti-natalism/nihilism. I soundly disagree with Ligotti's philosophy, but it does make for frightening horror fiction, if anyone's into that sort of thing.

Jon Favreau as the antagonist?

It's an awesome show. HBOGO is a great thing to have.
