Last year, HBO’s True Detective exploded out of the gate as one of the network’s most popular dramas. The stellar performances of Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson drew in viewers and won critical praise. The writing of series creator Nic Pizzolatto and Cary Joji Fukunaga’s direction were also lauded by fans and critics.

This season, Colin Farrell, Taylor Kitsch, and Rachel McAdams play a trio of police detectives who drawn into a new conspiracy along with Frank Semyon, a career criminal played by Vince Vaughn.
