True Detective


True Detective premieres on Sunday and I'm intrigued.  It will use the anthology format (like American Horror Story) and will play with multiple timelines (which I am always a fan of, if done well).  It is wholly penned by Nic Pizzolatto who comes from an academic background in fiction and literature.  He is also an acclaimed writer.

Without seeing a single frame, I'm guessing either Matthew McCongoughy or Woody Harrleson (or both) will receive Emmy nominations.  This is based on the predilection to nominate any movie star who makes a television appearance, and the possibility of submitting in the less competitive miniseries category. 

Like I said, I'm intrigued and I like the format.  So in the interest of diversity, I will cover this series about lawmen in the South, accompanying Justified, which is about lawmen in the South.
