Report: True Detective Season 2 Eyeing Colin Farrell, Taylor Kitsch https://tv.yahoo.com/news/report-true-detective-season-2-eyeing-colin-farrell-191540133.html
The lineup of shows that launches Sunday, June 21, on HBO is the most disappointing full lineup the network has ever assembled. It banks heavily on star power, but its three shows mostly fail to tell coherent stories. There are good reasons to watch all of them, but there are also good reasons to skip them.And that's too bad. This is a trio led, after all, by the second season of the 2014 television sensation True Detective, now with extra Colin Farrell. Brand new series Ballers boasts Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson in his first full-time TV outing since he was a regular over on the WWE. And The Brink, also brand new, has Tim Robbins and Jack Black starring in a would-be Dr. Strangelove act of geopolitical satire.
Which means they all should be good... critics are like ***holes, every one has one.True Detective season 2 leads HBO’s most disappointing lineup ever http://www.vox.com/2015/6/19/8811419/true-detective-season-2-review-hbo

The first episode of the new season, which is completely separate from Season 1, introduced audiences to a new round of characters, a fictional city and an entirely new mystery. Each week, The Huffington Post Entertainment editors Matthew Jacobs and Erin Whitney will gab about their thoughts on the season. First up, a bit of a bummer with Sunday's premiere: Spoiler alert for "True Detective" Season 2, Episode 1, "The Western Book of the Dead."
Warning: spoilers ahead if you aren’t caught up on the season.....The thing about the police procedural is you have to have a grasp on a lot of names and events to really follow the plot. Season 2 of “True Detective” has both in mass quantities.So leading up to the season finale on Sunday, here are some major points from the show you should be familiar with.
