Short preview clip for tonight's episode. There's just barely enough time to rewatch the earlier episodes before 9PM est!
I wouldn't be surprised if HBO engineered this series to dismantle the perceived benefits of Netflix's front-loaded binge release model. Maximise tension in each episode (instead of leveraging the binge-watch model to smooth out the narrative over several episodes) then let the anticipation during the week roil up exactly the cultural buzz that HBO measures its success with.

The last episode was full of circular imagery, and even the characters actions followed a circular path back to earlier in the show. Rust is obvious as he retraces his investigation, but a lot could be said about Hart hitting his kid, who it seems was abused by someone thus perpetuating a cycle of violence. It's obviously part of the larger narrative of the story.
My guess is the writer was thinking about the nature of a crime procedural quite a bit, and these themes are a natural extension of that.
I dunno, if the police caught my daughter bumping uglies with two guys at the same time, I'd be upset. I'm not surprised he slapped her.
Beginning of episode 2: As Cohle is examining the "devil trap" on his desk, the camera slowly pulls away and Hart's name plate is positioned under the trap

If Nic Pizzolatto is as smart as people are claiming, that's something he would do. It's the same principle behind the poster.
You're an unimaginative fool, so it's not surprising that you don't get it.
It's unbelievable that people are still treating this show like a straightforward, run-of-the-mill procedural.

Nic Pizzolatto wrote it, he didn't control the camera or design the poster.
