Someone once told me, television is a flat circle. Every show we've ever watched or will watch, we're destined to watch over and over and over again. Watching this show, sometimes I'm convinced that the creators have lost their minds. But there are other times, I think I'm main-lining the secret truth of the universe.

The first season set the bar really high. It's up there with The Wire, The Sopranos and such. I hope they manage to deliver on the next season.

I watch this and am really impressed with McConaughey. I used to equate him to the male version of Katherine Heigl. Not a bad thing, but his roles didn't have much depth. At least his successful roles didn't.

Also, I get the Hannibal vibe as well. I think it's because they slow the pace of the show and let your mind fill in the blanks between the dark imagery they're using.
