What did you like the most, perhaps the total lack of any detective work? Oh no, maybe it was the naked women drowning off the coast of Alaska (at midnight on Christmas eve) and the coastguard not only IMMEDIATELY find her body but then instantly TELEPHONE her next of kin. Or perhaps the cringey subplot involving the lead's daughter being in a relationship with an underage girl and everyone hand waving it as 'technically legal' (whilst casting a 30 year old to play the teen).

The entire script reeked of ChatGPT (and got caught literally using ai generated artwork for their set dressing). Characters just go to places for no reason, plenty of scenes just exist for the sake of it, and everything of any interest happens off screen

Season one was a masterpiece, Mare of Easttown' is a worthy successor. Season 4 simply shoehorned in callbacks to S1 to slap the TD brand on a dog shit.

motherfucking facts right here. S4 was trash. How how about the subplot with Hank getting catfished?? Why is that even there at all??

if this wasn't a season of true detective, there's no way I would have finished that season of trash television.

I agree, really one of the most poorly written things I’ve ever seen

For sure, and I WANTED to like it. S1 is my all time favorite season of any show and honestly just one of the best things I ever watched, period.

I gave S4 every benefit of the doubt, and I just couldn't anymore after 3 or 4 episodes.
