It centers on two detectives, Rust Cohle (McConaughey) and Martin Hart (Harrelson), whose lives collide and entwine during a seventeen-year hunt for a serial killer in Louisiana. The investigation of a bizarre murder in 1995 is framed and interlaced with testimony from the detectives in 2012, when the case has been reopened. The concept is for the 8-episode first season to resolve the mystery at hand, with subsequent seasons using same structure but new characters and story.

Excited for this one. Big fan of both McConaughey and Harrelson. The Louisiana backdrop should provide for an interesting story.

So many good dramas on TV today. Why not add another.

Dunn and Sanders look familiar from other bit roles. Just remember liking them both.
