Yeah talk about underwhelming. Yikes.
There were some interesting aspects, LOVED Colin Farrells character for example and the stuff actually involving the murder was solid, lookin forweard to seeing what this burn guys mess is all about.
Still, this first episode was about as slow moving as something can get. Hoping things start movin along quicker, especially on the character front. The first season didn't have a single weak episode, not a single weak moment really, and the followup starts off with this?
I think the problem was the amount of characters. Last season was so focused, this one seems to be telling like 6 different stories at once. We get that so often in dramas on tv, i kinda dug the other approach. Not to mention, it creates a situation where we can sit through an hour of tv and still have little idea as to what the story even is exactly. I also miss that horror element of the first, much more interesting and unique then this seemingly straight forward crime drama type of deal. Hopefully it gets gritty as shit to make up for it.
Oh and Rachel Mcadams character is fucking AWFUL! What an irritating, terrible fucking character. They better not be propping her up with the intent of getting me to root for her at some point. Hope she dies. Such a generic, moody, "i'm in a mans world so i gotta be tough!", angsty damage case female type of character, sooooo fucking awful.
