I had already convinced myself that it is almost impossible to surpass what was done by Matthew McConaughey, Woody Harrelson and Nic Pizzolatto in the first season of this series. While I don't need convince myself otherwise, but I have to say that the season premier was very promising, character buildings were extraordinary,not to mention that the acting by all the actors were brilliant and there are a lot of new things to look forward to in this new season. Let's see if this season could go on a parallel quality with the first season. As for this particular episode (The season premier), it not only met my expectations but went beyond it. Hands down. And the theme song is amazing.
