True Detective....i have The Horn for mattew mcconaughey....

[ThatVikRinA22]

i need to sponge down with a cool flannel.

just watched episode 4. omg.

its my fave thing on telly right now (but am eagerly awaiting the next season of game of thrones....there are plenty there that give me the horn also....)

how brilliant is this series. Im loving it. anyone else?

It is vg and yy to mm. He is gorgeous in it - though obv am 'enjoying the story' as far as DH is concerned. It's funny because usually Matthew M holds little to no appeal for me otherwise, outside of true detective.

We watch it and as I am from North America it is easier to hear the mumbling; I have to explain it to the OH who is a Derbyshire lad born and bred. Also why I have to order everything if we go to the States as nobody understands him.

On the topic of MM. You are not mistaken. Sizzling.

Never liked him, he's not my type. But I do Rust until he begged for mercy. Though I doubt he would...

ive never liked him before....but in this...hot hot hot. i would. Its just a brilliant series too.

Lol I'm exactly the same, never had any attraction to mmc but after last nights episode.....hose me down with holy water!!!! It was soooo good tho I didn't want it to end....like your name by the way vicar ;-)

Ditto Scarlett, although I didn't feel that way until last night's ep

ditto ... again had never seen the appeal but after last night's episode am a convert ...

Really? I'm just watching the first episode and I didn't even recognise him at first!
To be honest I never really fancied him anyway but I think he looks dog rough in true detective. (Sorry)

Haven't seen ep 4 yet - I take it DP will be in for a good night, between that and The Musketeers?

He smokes those fags like he's smoking a dooby.

The smoking is rank but otherwise, hubbahubba

Oh, I was all excited for episode 4. You all got my hopes up!

MM is much hotter with suntan and tight suits than as a druggy biker.

Plus I'd heard so much about that last 7-minute tracking shot and it wasn't quite as good as I thought it would be.

I must admit in finding it hard going.

Yes, I've been enjoying MM very much in this . He is gorgeous in those suits as young Rust

Oh, I really like it but I'm seeing it as a novel - its the unreliable narrator on screen - we think that what we're seeing is true, and perhaps it is, but its also coloured by Rust and Hart's interpretation and memory of events, and coloured by us knowing that they are being asked about the case again 17 years on, and so much else. It's almost impossible to really get across that level of unreliability and potential false trails and turns well on screen, it's good to see.

Woody Harrelson is also amazing. I potentially would with Hart, too...

I'm enjoying it but seriously considering watching it with subtitles.

lol lalady - i keep having to rewind bits....

my pal is in Oz and just said if i need a hose down after episode 4 get ready for episode 6....

this is one of those series that i actually cant wait for saturday nights....

i love the whole brooding, real, brave honesty of Rust....what did Hart call him? Mr Charisma....

think woody harrelson is brilliant and in some ways has a harder role to play - Rust is what he is but Hart is more complex....more multi faceted.
id still do Rust first......

dh says there is talk of a second series but probably not with the same actors....a different story.
this one is living up to all my expectations.

I watched episode 4 last night and it hit me all of a sudden. I've never seen it before but oh my god...... Mattew McConaughey is gorgeous!!!

Plus this is one of the best if not THE best thing on tv right now. If you haven't seen it already, The Guardian have a fantastic blog for TD that is worth a read

oooo wheres the blog? i think ive watched ep 4 about 5 times now....

If you just go into the guardian newspaper website and search for True Detective. Or just google 'Guardian true detective' it will show up

thank you for that! found it....and its explained a few things that id not picked up on.

anyone see the last one? i loved it. heart in mouth.

i cried.

i would like to watch the entire thing again from the first episode but ive checked sky on demand and you can only get episodes 5 - 8....the first 4 have "expired"....

what do you think they did after they got their man?
i absolutely loved Rust. and by the end, Marty.

Did his wife go back to Marty? Dh thought she had a wedding ring on when she went to the hospital - but i wasnt clear whether that was for him or whether she had got remarried since they split in 2002?
