@Btron

I don't remember seeing any advertising for Galveston, but I probably just wasn't paying attention. Do you know where Pizolatto worked?

Just looked up Nic's Wikipedia page. I didn't realize he wrote two episodes for season 1 of The Killing. Obviously TD is much better (season 1 of the killing was good until the last episode though), but there are some similarities between the two shows' darkness and styles.

There was nothing wrong with season 1 of the killing other than all the marketing behind the show was that we'd know the killer at the finale, when in fact Sud decided to basically troll all the viewers and end S1 with "well maybe not this time but y'all come back next year and find out!"

****ing hack move.

The Killing was good at times. It was terribly guilty of the exact lying to the audience TD has made it a point to disavow.

In many ways, it's a similar show.

Thanks Matt.

quote:
The shows creators have said they're not in the business of trying to trick us. The reveal last night that the oldest daughter is on meds is the shows way of closing off the stories about Marty's life. The daughter was just mixed up in the head. She wasn't a part of it and the FIL isn't the grand master of Carcosa, nor is he Tuttle's step brother, and Maggie isn't the den mother or Ledoux's ex-girlfriend from high school. All of that was there to show how screwed up Marty's life was and for character development. All of the "the daughter is on the mess" is very much conjecture on our part as viewers.

I'll gladly eat crow if I'm wrong but an objective, un Lost-like watching of the show says that's the way it is. I don't get the impression that the creators had clues inserted in every back ground setting of this series.


Anyone else lol at this when they stumbled upon "conjecture?" Sounds like Marty got a TA account.

Did Lone Star make some kind of advertising deal with TD?

Watching this show makes me crave cheap beer.


I have looked for Lone Star every time I am at any store or gas station now. No HEBs up in Dallas. I CAN'T FIND LONE STAR. HELP.

Isn't that picture from the first time they saw Remus?

When Marty got the call on LeDoux and called Rust to the car.

I live in Dallas and am pretty sure the Kroger and Albertson's by my house has Lone Star.

Dave...there's also a really really close 'R' to the 'KING' there. AKA 'KING' is just the end of 'WORKING' or "#!*KING'

Yeah, if I'm supposed to see that and think "oh wow, it says 'notice king' on the marquee when we were introduced to that character", I'm gonna have to give you the most 'meh' shrug my body can produce.

Have you ever had Lone Star? There's a reason Shiner was invented.

Yes, Law, I've had Lone Star. It's a great shotgun beer. And like was said earlier, this show is making me crave its cheap greatness. Had some at Twisted Root a few weeks ago. Buying a case tonight. Sorry I'm not snooty, as Cohle would say.

Lone Star is one of the worst beers on the planet. They shouldn't be allowed to have that awesome name.

I'm gonna take the under. With everything needing to be wrapped up I think there'll be too much action going on for the guys to sit around and drink beer.

Can Sunday be here already?!?!?!

Just got my hands on Pizzolatto's original 10-page pitch treatment for not only his vision and structure of the series, but his breakdown of all eight episodes as well. Obviously not going to read it yet, but it's weird knowing the potential identity of the Yellow King is within my grasp (even though that's obviously not what the show's ultimately about). Will upload Sunday night for anyone who wants to read it...

Ha, my desire to be surprised and/or potentially blown away by the finale outweighs my desire to know right this second what happens. I can wait three more days...

I also have the very first draft of the pilot, along with the shooting scripts for both the pilot and episode two. Will post all four docs on Sunday if people want to read those as well.

Sign actually says "Notice King"

Would be very surprised if that was just a coincidence.
