    More ordinary than Season 1, which is what is creating all of the melodrama in this thread and beyond.

    People aren't easily impressed exponentially; as television gets better and better naivety wanes and wanes.

    I think this season was good, not great. Characters were all flawed, plot was a tad complex to be enjoyed by the majority of the public, etc.

    I think this season was intended as more of a "classic" Los Angeles crime drama (think modern L.A. Confidential) and to that effect, it worked BUT was not without flaws.

    Overall, I'd give it a 7.5/8 / 10.

    I watched the first season 2-3 times; this I'll keep at 1.

    • I'm hoping Nic Pizzolatto & Cary Joji Fukunaga have another go at a season 3...ideaist
