    Description of the season from ew.com:

    A bizarre murder brings together three law-enforcement officers and a career criminal, each of whom must navigate a web of conspiracy and betrayal in the scorched landscapes of California. Colin Farrell is Ray Velcoro, a compromised detective in the all-industrial City of Vinci, LA County. Vince Vaughn plays Frank Semyon, a criminal and entrepreneur in danger of losing his life’s work, while his wife and closest ally (Kelly Reilly), struggles with his choices and her own. Rachel McAdams is Ani Bezzerides, a Ventura County Sheriff’s detective often at odds with the system she serves, while Taylor Kitsch plays Paul Woodrugh, a war veteran and motorcycle cop for the California Highway Patrol who discovers a crime scene which triggers an investigation involving three law enforcement groups, multiple criminal collusions, and billions of dollars.

    I love Vaughn and Farrel, but I don't know. Part of the reason I enjoyed the first season so much was because of the setting with Woody and Matthew hamming it up on the bayou with inbred hick motherfuckers and Satanic stuff. It made for a super creepy atmosphere at all times. I'll still watch it though.

    honestly i'm not expecting much. they specifically said it wouldn't be as dark as the first season, which i think was made it so incredible the first time around.

    Could care less about most of the characters so far, but Colin Ferrells parenting skills are worth a watch.

    Meh, I felt the same way about season 1 after the first few eps even though everyone was losing their shit

    I hope it'll turn me around like that did eventually

    Hmmm. Wasn't particularly enthused about the first episode, although at least the "character introducing" episode is done, and they can start with the actual story next week. The whole "introducing themselves" part at the end was kind of forced, but I understand what they were trying to do. Of course, the real purpose was to actual remind us what these characters' names were.

    How is the CHIPS guy going to be on this case, given that he's suspended and all? Yes, he's the original discoverer of the body, but why's he going to continue to be involved?

    I do like me some David Morse (the Panticapaeum guru/Rachel McAdams' Dad), so that was a pleasant surprise.

    Bad sign: Prior to the last scene, I didn't remember a single character's name after the first episode, other than Rachel McAdams' sister. I spent most of the time trying to figure out which of the three cops was the most screwed up. And although I think Colin Farrell won the first episode, I'm not sure he's going to stay at the top of the "Worst Life Power Rankings."

    I expect a quality drop, which a lot of the media has seemed to confirm after seeing the first 4 episodes. of course everything could change. not surprising though since he plagiarized the first season and lost his amazing director and talent. Hopefully Farrel just keeps beating people up every episode. i'm cool with that.

    Lovely gender politics too, can't wait to tune in next week to find out whether the only female character with agency will find someone who can properly wreck her anus!
