True Detective (spoilers).

[Obfleur]

Well, that was excellent. It's been a long time since I saw a show/movie that was this enthralling and intense. I was hooked from the first minute, and the whole thing felt more like an "experience" than a tv-show. Gave me the same creepy feeling as when I watched Twin Peaks for the first time.
Matthew McC was ******* brilliant as Rust. I felt hypnotized when he started talking about all his ideas about life, the human race, etc., and Woody's chin did an amazing job as the semi-asshole Marty.
Nineteen thumbs up!

Let us join hands and sing together.

Yep, ******* brilliant tv.

It certainly was pretty sweet! And I'm with Ob as far as the Rust quote love. Things like:

I think human consciousness, is a tragic misstep in evolution. We became too self-aware, nature created an aspect of nature separate from itself, we are creatures that should not exist by natural law. We are things that labor under the illusion of having a self; an accretion of sensory, experience and feeling, programmed with total assurance that we are each somebody, when in fact everybody is nobody. Maybe the honorable thing for our species to do is deny our programming, stop reproducing, walk hand in hand into extinction, one last midnight - brothers and sisters opting out of a raw deal.

I'm like, "YES, Rust! I've been considering that for forever, and although I don't share your certainty, I do appreciate the sentiment."

or:

This is what I mean when I'm talkin' about time, and death, and futility. all right there are broader ideas at work, mainly what is owed between us as a society for our mutual illusions. 14 straight hours of staring at DB's, these are the things ya think of. You ever done that? You look in their eyes, even in a picture, doesn't matter if they're dead or alive, you can still read 'em. You know what you see? They welcomed it... not at first, but... right there in the last instant. It's an unmistakable relief. See, cause they were afraid, and now they saw for the very first time how easy it was to just... let go. Yeah They saw, in that last nanosecond, they saw... what they were. You, yourself, this whole big drama, it was never more than a jerry rig of presumption and dumb will, and you could just let go. To finally know that you didn't have to hold on so tight. To realize that all your life, all your love, all your hate, all your memories, all your pain, it was all the same thing. It was all the same dream, a dream that you had inside a locked room, a dream about being a person. And like a lot of dreams, there's a monster at the end of it.

Are f***ing awesome. And sure, we were all disappointed that Cthulu wasn't the monster or that we all didn't go insane from watching the last episode a la The Yellow King, but it was still pretty cool.
