‘True Detective’ Season 3 wants you to let the mystery be

sudshr47 February 26, 2019

There are a lot of mysteries on HBO these days. Even when a show isn’t about getting to the bottom of crimes or catching murderers, the interactive element of getting an audience to “solve” what’s happening onscreen is a vital part of the entertainment landscape. Look at Westworld, a show that has ten times more mystery than it actually has plot, or Game of Thrones and its hundreds of fan theories, or Sharp Objects and its laundry list of dead little girls.

At the center of these is True Detective, a show that is outwardly about mystery but in its three seasons has used the framework of crime to explore the interiority of its characters and the effects that One Big Case had on their lives. Most of the characters in previous seasons are left worse off by the time their story is done, which tracks as far as they’ve been dealt awful hands and witnessed terrible things.

‘True Detective Season 3’ review: Thank god, it’s really good again

sudshr47 January 11, 2019

After a much loved first season and a near-universally panned second, HBO’s “two cops, sitting in a cop car, two feet apart because the space between them is occupied by the unfathomable cruelties of man” show True Detective is back. And thank god, it’s good again. Very good.

True Detective Season 3 — which made the first five episodes of the season available for review — is more than a return to Season 1’s spooky, winding excellence. It tackles different issues to previous seasons and focuses more sharply on issues and realities that were left unexamined in its previous iterations.

Casting Mahershala Ali as Detective Wayne Hays, undoubtedly the star of the third season, is the most affecting choice anyone involved could have made for True Detective. His character, who was originally conceived as a white detective, gives the show an opportunity to explore the machinations of racism in three different time periods — the 1980s, the ’90s, and finally in the 2010s.

Some spoilers for Compliance, True Detective: Season 1, The Leftovers, The Handmaid’s Tale, and Hereditary lie ahead.

Hollywood’s go-to malicious missionary, Ann Dowd, knows a thing or two about indoctrinating audiences. With over 30 years of stage, film, and television experience, Dowd has assumed the roles of politicians, doctors, mothers, FBI agents, and—as of late—lots and lots of cult members.

Gaining prominence in Hulu’s The Handmaid’s Tale, the notorious character actress has earned a reputation, as well as an Emmy, for getting into the minds of antagonistic zealots and delivering disturbingly convincing performances. Read more…
