True Detective: Night Country | Episode 01 Recap

Lace your snow boots up nice and tight, snuggle into that down
parka  and scrunch your hat on good and proper because Lisa
and Dean are leading you into their recap of the first episode of
the much awaited fourth season of True Detective.

After three series by Nic Pizzolatto, new Showrunner Issa Lopez
has some big boots to fill ... can she do it?  What
sensibilities will her esoteric Guillermo del Toro-esque magical
realism and horror bring to the table and will it resonate with
viewers like Season One ... or puzzle and frustrate as Series Two
and Three did for some viewers ?

Season One famously had Rust and Marty as the primary
investigators,  Seasons Two and Three were mixed. Here in
Season Four we have two very strong female leads in Jodie Foster
and the astounding Kali Reis. What will they make of it ?  A
fist ?  Or a dog's breakfast ?


So many questions !  Listen in for the answers.
