True Detective: Night Country: Part 5 (2024)
Season 4, Episode 5
8/10
Argh, I hate reveals that's not discovered by the protagonist
12 February 2024
Warning: Spoilers
The reveal that it was the head of the mines and the cop involved with the death of Annie from their perspective is lazy! What's the point of watching a detective work through a case if the show just reveals important information to the audience away from the detectives themselves. It would've been so much scarier for the audience to see the cop follow Jodie without us knowing why, and watching him kill Otis out of the blue would've been so much more impactful.

I like the character development though so far, and we begin to see the motives behind each person. Still awaiting for next episode on how the supernatural elements tie into it, if at all.
