Who is watching Season 3 when it comes out? The first season was so good because the creator spent years working out the story and they had two great lead actors and a great director. Season 2 was rushed and the story wasn't as developed and the supporting pieces weren't there. I am cautiously optimistic about seasons 3 based on what I have read. David Milch (creator of Deadwood) helped the show runner develop the season and wrote at least one episode.

Yeah, hopefully the show runner listened to him. There was a lot of conflict on the set, so there is still potential for it to be a major bomb.

xo is pissed because it's all about a black guy (the star of Moonlight), but that's childish. I think it'll be good.

He is a great actor and it doesn't sound like it is going to be a SJW shit show that harps on overt racism.

https://www.bustle.com/p/mahershala-alis-role-in-true-detective-season-3-was-originally-written-for-a-white-actor-13241344

Ali told Variety he also let Pizzolatto know “we don’t have to beat them over the head with the race element,” while also making the argument that showing the subtleties of racism would deepen the story. "Racism is not experienced as the N-word all the time, right?" Ali said. "It’s more like, he wouldn’t even look me in the eye."

season 2 was still better than most of the garbage thats on HBO

why was it suspended for so long? was it the writer/director’s decision or was it just due to poor ratings?

I rewatched it a few months ago and it wasn't as bad as I remember. I think expectations were too high. It was a solid B as a show, with some campy/ridiculous elements.

It was definitely weaker overall but had some of the most poignant moments in recent television history. The death of Stan, for example, was an earth-shattering moment for me and one I can’t say I be fully gotten over even 3 years later.

It would have been anticlimactic anyway. Milch wasn't great at ending stories, or really "plot" in general.
