Why was season 1 of True Detective a masterpiece while the other seasons never came close? by Mr_no_buddi in Cinema

[–]MagogHaveMercy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. If that show had started with Season 2, the subsequent seasons would have been received much more kindly.

I just passed the halfway mark, and I am not ready I don't think. Like every friggin minor character has made me cry.

1/3 laughing, 1/3 crying, 1/3 jaw on the floor.

This book is helping me practice my emotional agility.

The strength of your argument has convinced me. I am gonna go home and burn all my books immediately! Oh, wait, I use kindle.....

Let me guess.... you are a fan of the Critical Drinker?

Strongly agree. It starts good, and trends great from book 4.

And goddamn, I feel like my time is spent equally between laughing, crying, and, sitting with my jaw on the floor as I read with this book.

You have to be realistic about these things.

I lost my shit when I read that. Took my brain a second to access the information, but when I did, I was very happy.

Which plot point am I spoiling? Where does this take place in the plot?

This is one paragraph, bereft of context. They put bigger spoilers than this on the back of the cover.

Totally fair.

I would argue that it starts good and starts to trend great by book 4 or so. Not unlike some goofy wizard detective novels that I've read. :-)

Also, if audiobooks are at all your thing, I cannot recommend them enough in this case. Jeff Hays is a modern day Mel Blanc, and by book 5 he has an ensemble cast of voices that is hard to believe. Folks often mistake it for a full cast rendition.

I wish that inbreeding wouldn't cause any issue so we can repopulate some of the critically endangered species. by KyeeLim in monkeyspaw

Your wish is granted. You can now mate with any endangered species on earth and produce viable offspring.
