Your in for a lot of shit talking. Season 2 had some amazing moments but couldn't stick the landing

Colin couldn't save that season and he was awesome. The scene with the surgeon ****

Not trying to suck his dick but Farrell can make actors look like trash. I think it was Tigerland/phonebooth when I saw him lose himself. I think he takes his emotions out when he gets the chance on film

I agree with you on Farrell. Top notch actor. Vince was also spot on. Rachel McAdams or whatever her name is did a decent job but you could tell the roll was originally written for a man.

I think the main problem with Season 2 was the plot was just a bit to convoluted and too many sub-plots.

Just finished Season 3. Very good acting and directing. The overall plot was similar to 1, a bit of a "back to the basics". The ending was a bit of a surprise though. A decent surprise, to be honest. Not every show needs a dark and gritty ending.

Just started on Season 4 and you can tell that when it comes to production it has almost nothing in common with the other three series other than the name. I feel as if I'm watching some sort of love child of True Detective Season 1 and something like X-Files. It actually reminds me a bit of the TV show adaptation of The Terror from a few years back. Got the same feel - strange spooky shit in the dark and ice with polar bears and shit. In fact, I'm pretty sure there was some X-files episode that dealt with some remote ice-core drilling scientists that drilled too deep and woke up something spooky that killed them all.
