And... exhale. I feel like I just held my breath for the last two months watching a great premiere by auteur Nic Pizzolato. The eight episode first season of True Detective was nothing short of captivating, awe-inspiring, and at times terrifying.
Set in the bayous of Louisiana, it tells the tale of two detectives, played by Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson. There is a strange, ritualistic killing of a young girl that the two are called in to investigate, but this quickly becomes about far more than just a murder investigation.
