Tim Goodman On the Demise of "True Detective"

The Hollywood Reporter's Tim Goodman explains why he thinks True Detective has lost its way.  He begins:

Having seen the first four episodes — half the season — I gave up because the show was terrible on almost all fronts and I personally don't believe in hatewatching anything.

Ah, but Sunday's episode featured an orgy scene (because of course) that had everyone talking — and mocking — and I was dragged back into the fray to assess it an the current state of the show in general.

Well, this shouldn't be too hard — my verdict is: bad and still bad.
