BTW I don't think we have met the killer yet, I think the killer is just a plot device to create turmoil between the characters.

They're cousins.  He's my top suspect right now, but I'm probably wrong.  Dora Lange's ex-husband is still going to be important, I think.   

Everything might get pinned all on one person.  The missing girl is definitely connected to the prostitute murder, but I think the crimes are going to be different.

Dexter will catch the real killer before the police ever figure it out.

I agree, I don't think it's anyone we've met or heard of yet.

And Steve the Drunk seems to be a drunk in this show as well. 

I think both Hart and Cohle are good detectives in different ways.  Hart seems to be the chosen one of that department, so he has to be doing somethings right. 

The more Deadwood and The Wire actors the better, Brother Mouzzone, Lester, was in this as well.

 It's obvious Cohle is the better detective and more in tune with the case. Hart is more of the politically savvy guy vs. being a criminal profiler.

Yeah I don't think the writers would be that lazy and have MM or WH be the killer, that would be a let down in my opinion.

There was a killing in Hannibal (tv show) that was similar as well

I doubt it. 

Cohle has definitely been through some stuff though.  His record from his previous job is sealed (likely undercover, which is why he's on/off pills and alcohol) and his daughter died.  Watching McConaughey play that part of him spiraling into what he is in the present will be great.

Yeah, that's the feeling I got. The killer doesn't matter as much as the crime that was committed and the effect that it has on the investigators (especially MM).

I doubt it.

That's probably the thing I'm most interested in seeing. I've liked MM ever since "A Time to Kill." I also like watching WH in serious roles and always think back to just how absent-minded he was on Cheers. Night-and-day.

You might like Rampart. I haven't seen it but I heard it was good.

Heard that there might be some supernatural elements in the fourth and fifth episodes.

"Do you believe in ghosts?"

I've never heard of it.

Really? I figured superstition would play a big part due to the stick sculpture thing, but more than that I wasn't really expecting.

I just think we're going to see hallucinations and some crazy evangelical excrement.
