Just finished TD4, which I was only able to do through sheer stubbornness and accessing my deep streak of ICD completism.
I have a high tolerance for the baked in weaknesses of this series, but season 4 seemed to be intentionally trying to be bad so hard it was just insulting and obnoxious. It does get somewhat less bad in the last few episodes, it is unable to recover from the accumulated weight of its badness overall. I was shocked after to read that this season is highly regarded by critics and the public. WTF? I don’t dislike Jodie Foster, who can be good to very good, and I thought was the only redeeming part of the otherwise awful “Nyad”. But, while not the weakest link, she was part of the problem here. For me, prototypical of the shows weaknesses was her “Ask the Question/Wrong Question” schtick. After the first episode, my question, every time she said that, screamed at the top of my voice: “Why is this show so bad?” On Tue, 16 Jan 2024 at 1:30 AM 'Dave Sikula' via TVorNotTV < [email protected]> wrote: > On the other hand, I found so much to dislike in the reincarnation of > "True Detective" that I won't be back.
