“True Detective – Night Country” is a return to form for the anthology series. The performances of Foster and Reis are particularly noteworthy, bringing depth and complexity to their characters. López’s direction is both confident and hypnotic, contributing to the show’s immersive atmosphere. The Alaska setting offers a refreshing change, and the series successfully integrates this with its traditional crime and psychological themes. Some subplots feel underdeveloped, and the finale might leave some viewers wanting more, but overall, it’s a compelling and visually striking addition to the series.”
