True Detective on HBO

This new series started on Sunday.
It is some real dark noir, starring Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson, both top form. Lately MM really shined in Dallas Buyer's Club, here he is still very southern, but he is a very disturbed, very nihilistic, apparently brilliant police detective.
I last saw Harrelson in the somewhat silly role in Hunger Games, here he is the clean-cut, more conventional partner.
The location is somewhere deep in Louisiana. The dialogue crackles. The story is barely revealed in the first episode. There was a ritual murder in 1995, worked on by this pair of detectives, and for some reason, they are both being questioned about what happened on the case by 2 other cops in the present day.
Looks like it's going to be a good one.
