True Detective (2014)

True Detective creates a world so fully realised that every detail feels intentional. The rules are consistent, the consequences are real. nihilism vs hope gives the whole world a moral weight that most shows lack entirely.

Every episode of True Detective ends at exactly the right moment to make you immediately start the next one. the long tracking shot through the housing projects is addictive in the best possible way. I finished the whole run in four days.
