Turn, on Wheels, The Americans to name a few.
And as a bonus, Humans.
The people ing about how bad it was, what else is out there is better besides Mr. Robot, Ray Donovan at the current moment? I will take what I can get it tbh...

Good finale, but unfortunately there were very few stakes because I was only half interested in the preceding 7 episodes. I had very little invested in any of these characters.
Wow, I guess Pizza wanted to make up for season one having a somewhat happy ending. Frank and Ray had to die? And Ray gave up awfully quickly when he found out that the transponder was on his car. He didn't even attempt to leave it behind and try to find another one. He just accepted that he was done for and drove off into the woods where Burris could kill him in front of no witnesses.
I'm a pretty seasoned TV watcher and really enjoy grit and detail, but this season was just on another level. So much detail, so many characters referred to and barely fleshed out that it made it hard to keep track of what the was going on. I read these two articles, really highlights how overly complicated this was.

The point was they were all broken people to start with for one reason or another. It was hopeless from the beginning. Basically the futility of trying to fight the system. Bezzarides doesn't get killed, but her spirit is broken and she is on the run for the rest of her life. All their futile thrashing trying to "make a difference" accomplished nothing. Just a dark and gloomy plot to start with.
This season pissed me off. The ending is very inconclusive and no can't relate to the main characters. , some people here don't bother knowing their names.
The writing seemed like a vague story that was trying too hard to be a masterpiece. You understood the gist of reference and inference but it was never clear. However, you'd have to rewatch a scene if you zoned out.
I laughed hysterically through the last 30 minutes or so.
Woodrugh's gf and mom were shown at his funeral. That's the only answer I can provide
If the only thing keeping a person watching this ty season is the expectation of a decent ending, then brother that person is a piece of .
Started this for the first time tonight. Holy what an amazing show. I'm about halfway through the first season.
It goes downhill----off a cliff from there.
It got so bad that HBO might not even make a third season.
First 5 episodes were damn near perfection.
Last three are very good but felt disappointing after the first 5.
Season two was season two and independent of the le, might be better in retrospect, but it was a pretty big disappointment.
Overall I felt season 2 was a lot better than the savage reviews it got, until the finale. That ending was a top 3 worst ending in any storytelling medium. Alot of endings are hated because they're controversial, or just a letdown from the rest of the show.....TDS2's ending was nonsensical, illogical, poorly written, poorly acted, just a huge storm of suck
I can see this. I don't think it was ever given a chance after casting concerns, and with it being linked in name to True Detective, it was always a doomed venture.
The endings of each season failed to live up to the hype, but overall season 1 was so good 1-5, you forgave the sorta thud of the last few episodes.
But the ending season 2 offered no redeeming qualities and season 2 wasn't nearly as strong as the first season, so there was no good will to buoy the season from drowning in the disappointment.
Milch has a lot of experience with HBO and also cop dramas, including one of the best, NYPD Blue. On paper, he's a brilliant hire and as a fan of Deadwood and NYPD Blue, I'm very excited to see this: but ultimately this will come down to casting.
Season 1 was almost transcendent in his characters and how they were acted. Some of whom had appearances in no more than 2 episodes, but commanded the screen.
Season 2 had almost nothing memorable, though I do think the Farrell character was a quality one, and one that was acted well, but he just didn't fit with the rest of the show, which was awful.
Colin Farrell's character and Woodrugh were both decently interesting, but even those guys were half baked and they never went as deep with them as they should have. Woodrugh's was the only death I actually cares about.
couldn't even get through season 2. complete garbage
After all the I heard about season 2, I never bothered with it. I'd be interested to see what they do with season 3 though.
Same. But I'm skeptical of anything else. The first one was so perfect and Woody and Mcconaughey made everything work so well. I wish they would pay them enough money to make it worth it for them to do another series every couple of years.
i never bothered with season 2 either. didn't know there's gonna be a season 3. haven't heard anything about it.
Been rumored for a few months, but hiring Milch is the first real move to making it a reality.
Again, concept isn't enough. Gotta get the story right, which Milch will, and nail the casting, which Nic Piz didn't do last time.
Just rewatched season one. Gets better and better. Such an easy binge watch
I watched again recently too. I've rewatched it three times and there are several episodes I've watch six or seven times.
