It’s funny because either one would be right at home saying either thing.

It’s a quote from True Detective

But it would be the opposite saying it in real life

I realize. I loved that first season. But I’m just saying, as real people, I could see that exchange going either way.

I've watched season one like 5 times and I completely agree with this assessment lmao

Right? I bet it was just as good the 5th time as it was the first. The first time I watched it I was having dinner with my roommate at like 8 on a weekday. We got hooked immediately and ended up grinding the whole season. Went to bed around 4AM just to wake up two hours later for work. Completely worth it.

It is, but OPs comment just made me realise that I genuinely think either actor could have swapped roles in TD season 1 and we would have still got two killer performances.

Don't get me wrong, it's perfect the way it is, but McConaughey could 100% pull off the womanising family man who's a straight shooter and Harrelson could definitely do the space-head nihilist extremely well also.

Two extremely talented actors for sure

Ha, nice try. I know it's from the ground-breaking story-telling vehicle that is Serenity; clearly they're shooting a sequel.
