Eh. Maybe I'm being overly harsh because S1 is a legitimate masterpiece, but S2 is so silly. I think there used to be a Twitter account that just did weird quotes from that season.

On its own is passable, so it is "underrated" but only because of the comparison to S1. But you can't say that's unfair when it's a new season from the same show.

Rachel McAdams sex freak and the MDMA party though? HNGGGGGGGGG...

Op is factually wrong: The fourth season, Night Country, is the most watched of the series,[5] and received widespread critical acclaim. It earned the highest number of Emmy Award nominations for the series.

Ratings -

Season 1 - 9.8/10. One of the best seasons of TV ever.

Season 2 - 2/10. This season has great actors, but the plot is completely unintelligible. This Slate pieces is one of the funniest pieces of writing ever because the author took the time to try and write out the plot and how it insanely involved knowing deep back stories of characters who never appeared on screen. https://www.slate.com/blogs/browbeat/2015/08/03/true_detective_season_two_a_guide_to_the_plot_of_this_confusing_season.html

Season 3 - 7.5/10. This season does not have any of the extreme highs of Season 1, but it is a very competent detective show. I thought that Steven Dorff would get a lot more work after this (he outshined Mahershala Ali) but it didn't do anything for hi.

Season 4 - 4/10. This season arguably has the best pilot - with the creepiest environment and most interesting mystery. Unfortunately, the rest of the show just sucks, the quirky mystery parts have no payoffs, the acting is bad, the character choices make no sense, and the mystery resolution is laughable and filled with 400 obvious plot holes.

Lol just read the Slate article. Tyft. What a truly shitty season. I did think the acting was good (as good as it could have been with the script) except for the highway cop. Collin Farrels plot with the kid of dubious paternity was compelling. If they removed like 3/4 of the subplots and tuned up the dialog it could've been a good successor season.
