So with last nights episode we have come to the halfway point of the season.

Given that any possible new season will likely feature an entirely new cast, story and characters we have come to the halfway point in the story and the characters stories.

So far the show has seems much more interested in exploring the detectives lives and ruminations about the case then the actual case. Which to me is fine since the other stuff works so very well.

That last 6 minute single tracking sequence last night was really well done.

So what are your thoughts so far?

Probably the best show currently airing on TV and one of HBO's best dramas. Last 10 minutes of last night's episode were incredibly well done, both in terms of atmosphere and camerawork.

I am thrilled with the fact that the CSI shit is completely absent from the series.

If the cable tv keeps this level we won't cinema anymore, ever.

I wouldn't go as far as calling it the best show on TV, but it's been brilliant so far.
