The writing was not good.
If you gave season 1 just good actors, no one would have really cared that much.
It isnt The Wire.

Lmao Pizz is a legit very strong writer.
No sir. No strong writer would put out Season 2.

Yes we would have. Great directors are consistently great. Not actors, not even writers as much. But Fukunaga is freakin great.

It definitely is not the wire, or breaking bad for that matter, but those are pretty much regarded the best shows of all time.
I don't think the writing was awful (although some of the dialogue was a little overwrought), I mean it wasn't nominated for a Emmy for nothing. But yeah, the acting cinematography and direction elevated it to greatness. I wouldn't put ten series above the first season.

Original True Detective was amazing. The effect of some productions do not fade. Very few of them. This one is up there. I don’t see what is wrong with the writing neither.

Rucker 50 is more of a community documentary than basketball.
Carter Effect exceeded my expectations.
Iverson’s was pretty good.
Amateur is a very good movie.
I just had to turn off AAU documentary. Some of these things show anything but basketball even though they claim to be about it.

I just finished season one after reading Wes and Fish praising it and I agree. The actors made it entertaining but otherwise there wasn't much to it.
