It's a bit clichéd, imo, but I will still watch.
Yes, you should break down every episode. This is one of the shows where every little detail means something. Great start by the way. I’m hooked!
Yes please, it's going to be a great series.
Yes, please do one for all 6 episodes. 👍You do a great job analyzing the details. 🧊🥶
Daddy loves you very much if you do!
I think it’s important to note when Navarro visits Annie’s brother, and she asks for some drinking water, he mentions the water “went bad three days ago” which is about the time the scientists disappeared….and “she” awoke.
Good catch I didn't connect that. Some connection in the drinking water driving the Caribou mad and the scientists insane. This show is like the thing and fortitude.
Rust’s dad in Alaska was named Travis. Is that a random easter egg?
@@jonfreeman9682That would tie into the mine also, I bet
Now the leftist woke show writer is making mother nature a serial killer for our global warming transgressions. What a joke
When the woman was gutting the wolf, did you notice it slightly moved just before she saw her “vision” of the dead guy?
Noticed that too
It’s called death rattle. The nerves are still alive that produce the “bark” or jolt of movement from the wolf as she guts it. I think it was put in there to make us briefly question whether the wolf was alive or dead….just like when we see the man in the very next scene, questioning if who we were seeing was alive or dead.
@@anthonyleonardo1449 ahh Great point. Thanks for clarifying.
Yea, it gave me Alien/The Thing vibes, great scene. Fiona Shaw is a legend, so glad to see her this season!
Shit hits a nerve. The wolf barks. Like an echo of the life that once was. Much like a ghost. It was beautiful
My theory: the mine is releasing lead into the water sources, causing the town folk and all animals exposed to it to hallucinate. The show is very intentional about showing the characters brushing their teeth with tap water, followed by a creepy hallucination immediately after. Even the lady who starts seeing the ghost is exposed to the wolf blood stream (assuming it’s drinking from the same water sources) right before she starts following the ghost that reveals the bodies. I think the hallucinations will become worse as the season continues until they figure it out they’ve been drinking lead water.
There is some toxin leaking into drinking water so affected caribou to jump off the cliff scientists to lose their mind and run out naked to freeze to death. It could be like in that show Fortitude where the mining crew accidently unearthed thousand year old frozen mammoth and it thawed and released a virus into the town and animals and people start going crazy. Brilliant show btw. This could be same idea and mega evil mining corp could be covering it up.
Now this is an excellent point!!
Holy s**t you might be right.
wow.. yes ! thanks for reminding me about Fortitude... great series.. thanks to NetFliks we get to see these really creepy and suspensful films@@jonfreeman9682
@@jonfreeman9682that makes a lot of sense! Especially when they start talking about the funding source of the research facility and the deputy gets cut off before he can say who is funding it.
Don't know if anyone noticed this but the mining company, SilverSky, has a Star shaped logo, the murdered woman was stabbed with a Star shaped weapon it was said. Also the Swirl mark found on the bodies in episode two is almost identical to that of the mark found on the body in season 1.
And Rust lived a lot in Alaska. His father's name was Travis? (like the phantom)
Mate I tell ya, I saw the crooked spiral symbol and I got extremely intrigued. I have been desperate to learn more about that whole evil Yellow King/Lovecraftian cult that Errol Childress was apart of ever since I watched season 1. After all, Rust famously said in the hospital that ‘we didn’t get them all.’ The thought of further exploration of ‘them’ and they’re beliefs fascinates me
@@hennysmith8229 I don't see how the symbol of the Yellow King traveled from the cult of a mad murderer in Louisiana to Alaska. However, we have to keep in mind that the pilot begins with a quote from the Yellow King story series. I also think Rust's father was named Travis, similar to 'the ghost' Rose thinks she sees.
Nevertheless, the spiral is an ancient symbol that has held diverse meanings in various cultures, from prehistory to the present day. Personally, I think the connection with the first season is just an homage.
I haven't watched season 2 or 3 but I'm going to now...@@hennysmith8229
The swirl also appeared in season 3, not sure about season two, but I will rewatch both.@@sydneywellington22
"The Thing" meets The Diatlov Pass Incident...... I hope officer Starling can crack the case!
The DVD for the Thing is in one of the first scenes!!! Look over Jodie Fosters R shoulder after she turns off the tv. To self full of DVDs !
Rust’s father was named Travis, and was also from Alaska.
Also the swirl symbol that was on the forehead and wall is the same 1 rust has in his storage unit and he comes across a few times in season 1
Wow, this writer must be a genius to make those tie ins to season 1. Too bad she doesn’t have Nic’s talent as a storyteller.
@@michaelsegriff3362 Nic so talented. That's why the last two seasons he wrote sucked. This series needed new blood. He wasn't cutting it after season 1.
@@missdee4927 Nic was Shakespeare compared to Issa Lopez. She’s trying so badly to be Nic, but she just doesn’t have it. She’s just another untalented undeserving check box hire.
@@michaelsegriff3362 lmao pure genius 🤣
The water not being drinkable for the past 3 days lines up with when the sun set. Something to think about
I thought that, or that it went bad at the same time whatever happened to the scientists happened.
Exactly my thought as well
It’ll end up being some stupid liberal climate activist POV type of story mark my words
It could be bacteria or virus causing the caribou to jump of the cliff and the scientists to run out into the snow and freeze to death. It's like in that TV show Fortitude the same thing happened.
@@jonfreeman9682 nope, climate change is the villain
I feel like we see the same reflection in Travis’ eye as we did the deer at the beginning before they start howling and run to the cliff
💯
When Liz was going through the photos of the activist at her house, the camera pulls out and the photos are arranged like Yellow Sign in season 1.
Even if Travis is a hallucination, there's no way Rose could have found those corpses w/o supernatural means.
I’d say more spiritual than super natural. 🤷🏽♀️
@@ashdeckert4259and I prefer h20 compared to water
@@ashdeckert4259 at the end, it's the same. 😁
Given how they've teased visions repeatedly, it would be cheap to promise the audience a supernatural thread and then bail on it with some cheap explanation. Supernatural may feel odd, but it seems better than wrapping it up with a bow and saying it was all a magnetic effect or folie a deus.
@@victorcates9330 - True Detective is not a supernatural series. Why do you suppose the explanation will be cheap?
Jodie’s character found that connection regarding the jackets. So, her mind & memory is fine. Not finding her glasses in the many pockets that jacket had is within range of ‘it happens’.
I agree. Maybe she doesn’t have the best vision and hearing, but her mind is sharp.
Please do the whole season. You mentioned a bunch of things I missed in my viewing. Great breakdown!
The night is dark, and full of terrors.
And Winter is HERE!
The swirling symbol on the body is from S1, its the 'flat circle' that is the infernal plane & seems to be related to worship of the Yellow King
Exactly and I'm surprised he didn't catch this, it's in choles storage shed the same symbol, anloo the original book In the Mountains of Madness (in which The Thing) was based of off, by H.P Lovecraft is the original place where Carcosa is, it's in an arctic region same as this season, seems like alot of connections, also H.P Lovecraft took inspiration for his book from the Poe book he mentions (read the Wikipedia page on it, it's brief) this season will definitely be linked to In the Mountains of madness, thus 2 season 1
One minor correction - It's not the Mountains of Madness, my friend. It's "Who Goes There?" I have two copies myself, and am absolutely obsessed with The Thing.@@TheRealBatCave
@@spiritconsumer yes the thing is based of who goes there
@@TheRealBatCave omg i think i may have misunderstood what you wrote. Sorry friend
Ya, surprised he didn't point that out. The swirls were part of the cult in S1, and they also appeared in the background of S3 in the police station.
I think Annie was uncovering something (considering she’s an activist) and they killed her not because of the mining protests, but because she was finding out something bad. Tongue being removed seem to be a nod to what happens in the afterlife (goes back to the spiritual elements of this show).
“Speak no evil”
oooo yessss
Tongues being ripped out are often a message with organised crime killings as a warning to keep quiet.
Could have served as a message to anyone she was working with.
I’m getting big Dyatlov Pass vibes from this so far and I am here for it.
Yes!
i was about to bring this up, the way the bodies of the scientists are in the snow is an indicator that they were scary af, they were naked and had some strange cuts in their faces and the parts of their bodies that we can actually saw. just as the diatlov events happened. I hope this doesn´t move in the supernatural way, but it could be interesting.
I didn't get the impression that she was hard of hearing. I thought they added that "speak up" line so that we would know that the cops are father and son. "Speak up" is something your dad would say to you. It would also be really embarrassing if you worked together and he treated you like a little kid, but again, I think the writers are trying to set up that relationship.
But IDK, I guess we'll see.
👍
Also he didn't mention rage issues of main character? When she started hearing that song on the campus. And he also called it Beatles. But I think it wasn't their song lol. And also some thing was running on coridor
@@tekiero Liz likes to play dumb. She lies a lot (like claiming that she doesn't know about the case of the dead activist).
My take is dad asked son to speak up for his own benefit and Jodie says no need I hear fine basically telling dad to deal with his own lousy hearing.
@@jonfreeman9682 I like that.
Yes, please keep doing these. I was excited for the show but was too distracted when it finally aired to give it a proper viewing, this helped to fix many themes and missed details into my awareness. Thank you!
They hyped you. Really not that good. The supernatural gimmick so soon very poor writing. Usually film not based on a novel or reality not so good. Not well thought out or realistic. Plus that lit up neon town...very poor backdrop. Jodie Foster typically good but out of her element here.
Alaska is hella dark in the winter no sun, so people are bound to "see things" I'm not mad about the visions. People already complaining that it's "too supernatural" lol. The mind can play tricks on people that go six months without sunlight. So the "supernatural stuff" could be a result of seasonal depression or some coast to coast vibes. Either way it sets a creepy tone, which is exactly what the first season did. Especially when Rust was tripping on the Yellow King visions, which could have been premonitions or just drug flashbacks, or both. Season 1 left that decision up to the audience.
Absolute.
Not to mention the aboriginal/native people in Alaska and their culture and spiritual aspects of their culture… this is going to play a role…I think people need to be patient to see how it all comes together.
@@ashdeckert4259 Agreed, it adds flavor to the storytelling.
They don't go six months without sunlight, usually one or two months
@@wtxcrazydonut 2 months without any sun 4 months with barely any sun and it's cold af. I think that I made my point.
The tongue thing is related to Inuit culture.
If anyone has seen "The Terror" then you know what is about to happen.
Also, you should definately watch The Terror; it is one of the best 1 seasons shows out there!
That’s exactly what I thought of! Loved The Terror!❣️
This show also reminds me of The Hand, which involved the murders of scientists at a similar facility.
there was a second season; japanese horror. not my thing, but had some creepy stuff
@@pacodance29 Ik, but it was completely different, very much like True Detective.
Watched Episode 1 twice ; so good so good 🙃 The shaking man in the beginning of this episode is Owen McDonnell who played Eve's husband Niko Polastri in Killing Eve
Thanks! I was wondering where I knew him from!
Lots of references to the season one including the quote from the Yellow King, the spiral, antlers and Lonestar Beer, plus Rust being from Alaska. I would not be surprised if there is an element of cosmic horror similar to that season that is implied but never proven.
I can assure you the dad asking his son to speak up is not because of Liz’s hearing. We’re meant to see that as Liz favoring the kid. She’s essentially telling the dad to back off
No Liz hears fine but dad can't hear good so he asks son to speak up for his own benefit but Liz says I hear fine so deal with it dad.
@@jonfreeman9682 lol no
She's the big strong Waman 💪
@@Zegeebwah I guess…
When Liz was first at the station and was in the room examining all the personal items and closes the medicine cabinet, did you notice someone was watching her in the mirror as it closes? It’s a very brief glimpse.
My theory so far is that the mining company is doing something shady/illicit obviously something within the realm of murder. And the weird creepy paranormal stuff, I think there's something in the water thats making the people see stuff.
I agree maybe the guy with the jacket was working for both companies and watching them then they scientists uncovered something.
I’m hooked so far. There’s definitely a supernatural element that kinda reminds me of season 1. I can’t wait to see your breakdowns every week!
There was no supernatural element to season one.
An interesting first episode.Gave me twin peaks vibes,and there was something about the character Travis,which reminded me of killer bob.
I thought so too
What about this reminded you of Twin Peaks?
@@ZegeebwahTravis (Cohle, Rust's dad I suspect) has a Bob like vibe and similar look. Hank is the name of the older detective. Cooper is the officer that calls Evangeline about her sister. Lulu, is similar to Lucy, who is handling the calls to the families of the scientists. And if you want to get into the weird- the sound design loved by Lynch, the e.lec.tric.ity referred to in this video @3:43 is reminiscent of the Arm (aka man from another place)
@@lisad7403very observative! I agree.
@@freakfire74 in the recent episode it dawned on me that Annie (K) is also another character!
The guy sitting in the chair is Travis. He's wearing the same shirt that he has on when Rose follows him onto the ice.
THANK YOU for your thoughts about this season’s True Detective! 🕵️ Although it left me with even more questions than I already had, you’ve helped to expand the possibilities in my mind. This show tends to linger in my thoughts and it keeps coming back to mind several times each day! Please keep breaking down every episode! Well done!
Anyone else think the reindeer had a reaction to something they smelled which terrified them? Could be biological (something to do the research station or the mining operation)? There’s definitely a murder cover up situation going on. It was interesting that Liz didn’t trust officer Hank and made his son bring her over the files from the previous murder. The magnetic field theory is interesting. Glad I waited to watch this until after the episode! I didn’t realize how many clues I missed. It makes me excited for more.
Reindeer.
@@bennygerow Thanks king, spell check
It could be they drank some water that had contamination causing dementia. Then some high frequency sound scared them so they ran and fell off the cliff. They didn't mean to jump off the cliff but just ran and it happens a cliff was there. Just like buffalo.
Yes, or something they felt.
The male reindeer actually read the script and said no way, I am out, follow me my beeches.
Yes, please continue to breakdown the season. I'm hooked. Thank you!!
The last shot showing Jodie looking over all the photos on the floor--in the form of a SPIRAL. That's really connecting Season One. This should be good!!
I’m watching the episode again. What about the being that runs across the hall when the delivery man shows up and the place is empty. Something was still there. At this point I think it’s alien ish (not necessarily short grey ones) or possibly some type of pole shift magnetic issue that makes people go coo-coo.
Thanks for the breakdown! I'm with you about this season (re: the first season vs. all the other seasons) in that I'm anxiously optimistic about this season. Please keep the breakdowns coming!
Can't wait for the rest of the show! It's so good so far and as a native I really appreciate them showing us as just everyday people and not some weird stereotype
What man-hating lesbian hate white people woke AF stereotype yeah I didn't see that at all 😂
Glad to know that you reviewed this series. You guys ALWAYS do great work!!
Always love your breakdowns glad you're doing this show, and this is much better than other breakdowns I've seen for this season
You didn’t mention that the spiral is also found in Season 1 and is the symbol of the Yellow King, and that Rust is from Alaska…
The one detail that REALLY stood out to me is the use of a very specific shade of blue. The color blue that Hank is painting the room in his house for his Russian mail order bride is extremely similar to the shade of blue on the floor of the science facility.
That shade of blue is also the same color of Navvaro’s jacket and there are hints of that shade of blue throughout the episode. Seems very intentional.
Sounds tin foil hat, but it reminds me of the detail from S1 of the specific color of the house being painted tying to Childress’ painting business and painting the house of the Fontenot family prior to the abduction of Marie Fontenot.
Also- just noticed that Navarro’s sister has her hair dyed a similar shade of blue as well.
It’s also the same shade of blue that Hank has for the keyboard on his phone when he is texting his mail order bride and the color of the hockey helmets.
I know blue is a super common color but this has to be intentional in some way to draw our attention to it.
I think blue is important too. Like “Blue King Crab.” Much like there was lots of yellow in S1 and the Yellow King.
Please cover the entire season! This was a great start and drew me in!!
Lol no it wasn't
@@reedbeckerlol. It was. You are totaly wrong.
Please keep these videos coming. LOVE IT!
I don’t think Liz has bad hearing. I think the dad was trying to embarrass his kid in front of her. Also think there’s someone in the water or those samples that’s affecting people. Heard the series was somewhat inspired by The Thing movie.
Really great break down. Thank you. I enjoyed it so much, but didn't catch all these details!
I watched it twice and still can’t believe how much I missed! Thanks for the breakdown! Can’t wait for the next episode!
I don’t know what to think about Dan. He seems to want to delay things as if the scientists left fresh food, acting as if he doesn’t hear a request to look at cases with missing tongues, and denying files are at his house. He knows more than he pretends. I think he plays dumb and jokes a bit too much.
That swirl is the same symbol rust comes across a few times as well I'm surprised u didn't catch that, H.P Lovecrafts book In the Mountains of Madness sounds very similar 2 this season, 1 Carsosa is mentioned severaltimes in Lovecrafts books, (snd an author b4 him the guy who wrote The Yellow king i think was inspirationalas well), 2 its about a antarctic research team going insane after finding out about a old civilization in the city of Carcosa, H.P took inspiration for the book from the Poe book u mentioned. They r definitely connected, if anyone wants 2 see what i mean just look up the Wikipedia page on In the Mountains of Madness..
It also steals alot from Thomas Ligottis work
@@PactolusC and Robert Chambers, but at this point who hasn't
The person drowning in the trailer is making similar arm motions to the guy in the visions that lead to the three dead bodies.
Yes, Travis is not dancing, he is drowning
I really love Navarro. She gave me such badass energy while still being an empathetic person.
specially that bed scene bro :) I got a wood ngl
She's the arctic girl boss and won't give up until she solved the case.
She's a pro boxer in real life. I'm enjoying her acting debut!
Yuck
@@hackskrapnot her debut. saw her in a vigilante flick i forget what but it is good
Yes!! I was hoping you covered this!
Did u notice that when the guy was seizing in the beginning…he was wearing that beige parka
I really hope this season can live up to true detective standard. Of course season one can’t be topped and is one of the greatest stand alone seasons of all time. I truly hope it’s not supernatural stuff.
I was hoping that as well. Supernatural works on a show like xfiles but has no place in true detective. Sadly however it looks like it may be pointing towards that. Ghosts have already appeared, the setting is a paying homage to 1980s The Thing which also dealt with supernatural. Yeah, it's taking me out. They brought on a completely different creative team for this one and in time I guess we'll learn if it was a smart move or a political one
the first one also has supernatural tone with it. Lovecraftian, Carcosa, Yellow King, especially the finale. Of course, it could be argued that it's more of a inside characters minds & the concept of psychosphere.
Actually, the first one had supernatural aspects to it. I think that would add to this series. Jodie Foster and Matthew McConnaghy are incredible actors!
@@user-tx8gq5zf1l So you say you are suspicious because you arf politicaly biased. Because. You bring in politics. You always find this "politics" if you want to. Because you are biased.
We dont know if they really are ghost or everyone is seeing stuff@@user-tx8gq5zf1l
there’s something about magical realism that’s making this so good for me
Great first episode, definitely looking forward to the 2nd. Like you touched on in the vid, I feel like they’re leaning so heavily into the supernatural that there’s no way that it’s the actual reason for all the craziness going on.
Great breakdown, would love to see more!
I think the word “great” is so overused and misused, it’s lost all meaning. This is one of those times.
The show was pure garbage. Awful top to bottom
@michaelsegriff3362 Or you have lost your touch to that word.
Yes, it's never really supernatural, just bad humans
@@reedbeckerit was good
Lets not forget Rust spent a little time in Alaska, and the swirl symbol from previous seasons can been seen in the trailer.
Great job! Lots off stuff I missed. Please continue. 😊
I’ve watched it at least four times trying to glean more information! Thanks for this overview. Can’t wait for more! I think Hank and his kid are connected in some bad way. There is a line about blood in a coming episode trailer and the son telling his wife he has to fix this one thing and her screaming at him not to lie to her!!!
I was hoping you'd explain or at least note a form that crossed in front of the camera in the lab (I think). Looking forward to parsing this out. You do very good critical analyses. Thanks! 🙌
My theory is that something in the atmosphere perhaps even the water itself is driving people to madness.
That makes way more sense than the magnetic shift
Mercury poisoning is my guess. The mine is leaking mercury into the groundwater. The gold mining process uses mercury to recover gold particulates and mercury poisoning is known to cause hallucinations. Anna K discovered the contamination and was killed before she could blow the whistle. I think the missing murder weapon will turn out to be a piece of a mining tool due to the star-shape of the wounds.
@@weybye91 everyone consumes water, and only those from the station have disappeared; the water wouldn't leave a cut tongue on the ground.
@@sydneywellington22 a magnetic shift between north and south that happens swftly would just kill everything cause every place on earth would have natural disasters on scale never seen before.
While the water the people on the base could be contaminated by some old virus, a virus we don't know about.
And if you think that's implosible then you my friend are an idiot, cause god knows what's buried in the ice
In the opening, the camera pans from Ferris Bueller to sammich guy, and coat dude isn’t there. It specifically shows the spot he’s standing. Then, sammich guy shifts and says “ta-dah”, and coat dude is there, covered in snow and shivering or shaking. Seems to me it was: a continuity error, meant to be deceptive, or he warped there from outdoors (reversed electronic sound?).
Liked this episode alot. Nice job on the breakdown!👍
Great review! Didn't think I'd actually enjoy someone's reviews and recaps more than, or as much as, Pete Peppers! I'll subscribe to this CZcams channel, and set up the bell to notify me for next week's episode! Great job! Lots of food for thought! Kudos! 👍
“Review bombing”. Apparently some people still can’t handle having women in the lead. Yes, the first season was great. Then season 2 & 3 not so great, and had men in the lead. Give this season a fair shake. I liked it very much!!!
A unique and fascinating glimpse of American society which I find almost alien. This first episode was exceptional. My only quibble, so far: In this episode we’re cautioned the water has been tainted/undrinkable for three days yet we see Jody Foster washing dishes and making soup - one assumes with water as an ingredient - without care. And, wouldn’t you expect to see cases and cases of bottled water stockpiled next to the mountains of canned goods and toilet paper? Lastly, is it SOP for cops to have boxes of case records in their homes?
there was a flood in the station. thats why he took them to his house. i guess he was in charge and could do that in Alaska lol
Please cover this show 🙏🏻 love true detective
Great analysis!! This season is off to a great start
The dead scientists are reminicent of a real expedition in 1959 at the Dyatlov pass in Russia where all particants died in a highly mysterious way.
Great breakdown as usual! “Daddy loves you very much!”❤
At the beginning of the episode after the scientists have left without their clothes or phone, I was thinking it might be a reference to the Dyatlov's Pass incident.
Man its mind blowing what some people can take from one episode already, at the end credits I couldn't even remember everyones name :P
I swear my gf will jump to a conclusion in the first scene connecting dots that might pan out but she's like asking me so that's why this happened? I'm like it's 30 seconds into a brand new season of a show I've never seen I have no idea! Haha
The guy in the trailer wearing Annie's Parka looks like Mosely, the miner walking out with Annie' brother when Navarro greets him at the mine entrance.
Episode was amazing. Keep covering the show.
Good episode and good review. Thx! Noticed that Travis did not have any footprints in the snow.
Spiral = White walkers
Whenever I hear the name “Holden,” I always think about reading THE CATCHER IN THE RYE back in High School circa 1992/1993.
"Fascinating breakdown. This really cleared a lot of things up" - Mr Spock
WOW! You pointed out some cool details I missed.. thanks... I think the answer is yes, breakdown each one. However I may just bank them and go back and watch Season 1 to see the seminal True Detective.. thanks again....
I was getting big The Thing vibes from the opening scenes. Also big Marge Gunderson vibes from Jody Foster
Thank you for giving great content!
Great breakdown - please do all of them
I think the supernatural elements punch the story to the max with very interesting mystery elements, I think the little bit that was in the first season really made me like it that much more. Also, the spiral imagery really gives me Alan Wake 2 vibes which I like a lot.
Great breakdown. Very Twin Peaks sometimes, and the frozen bodies remind me of Han Solo cryogenically frozen in carbonite.
Awesome video. Yes please go breaking down every episode
I love these breakdowns, thanks. Looks like it’s gonna be a good series. Loves s1 and s2. Definitely gotta watch s4 episodes a couple times. A lot of story lines. Hopefully it all ties together.
1 is best but 2 is awful and 3 is barely watchable.
S3 barely watchable??? Not sure bout that. Ending was stupid but I thought the acting was good M. Ali and S Dorff especially. But agree on s1 …off the charts good. How is this season looking? I think it’s promising.
@@johnjaramillo3790 So far I'm loving this season. It's got the thing and X-files vibes. There's another similar show Fortitude where a mining ⛏️ company accidently unearthed a 1000 year old frozen wooly mammoth that unleashes a deadly pathogen but this virus also holds incredible healing properties so pharmaceutical company are after it while the town fights corruption. Great show that ran for 2½ seasons but you can't pull off the same story in 6 episodes.
This is great. Please keep it up
I believe we need to pay attention to the parkas of all of the characters as other clues may be there…if you’ve figured out the ending to the Thing in the final scene, then you had to use the coats (and changes in color of coat each was wearing) to get there.
The Tsalal is also a short story by Thomas Ligotti, which also ties it thematically with season one. Let's remember that Rust Cole's philosophy was literally plagiarized by the show from Ligotti's The conspiracy against human race. The Tsalal story itself is about bringing a long forgotten forever darkness back into the world, so I guess it makes sense.
very interesting
the name of the facility really tells a lot
Your breakdowns are sooo good i watch shows to listen to you break them down
You should cover Base on a True Story, no one is talking about and I think you would enjoy it! It's also been greenlite for a S2
Environmental Horror.
Also getting "At the Mountains of Madness" vibes which tracks, given the themes established in S1.
Still bugging me that the deputy who thinks he's the co-sheriff was hoarding case files in his house & not required to return them to secured storage, & why did his son have to lie & sneak the file out. There's got to be a good reason for his secrecy & the wall to wall stacks of boxes, beyond the reference to a certain political/legal situation related to official documents & flooding you may have heard something about, how much evidence is he hiding & for who?
He definitely is hiding information. We need to figure out whose side he’s on. Is he helping the scientists’ killer or Annie’s killer? Or is there another motive?
Being in the dark all the time gave me the creeps it’s pretty scary I think it’s gonna be good
