Love it.  My brother thinks Season 2 is better and we've argued about it a few times.

That very long super take in Ep4 when the drug deal goes bad has to be one of the most spectacular feats in cinematic history.  Nobody talks about it much but I bet that crew is legendary in Hollywood for that one take alone.

My favorite performance from both Harrelson and McConaughey for sure.

Season 2
I actually couldn't watch it. The switch up is far too jarring. Same with Fargo. Loved the first season. Couldn't reinvest after.

Was exactly that ep I was watching when I made this thread. 

I know why this show is awesome but I'm not clever enough to articulate it. It's just the real mud and blood of real human relations. Rust and Marty relate to each other like nothing else I've ever seen on TV.

Do you know that super long take from Children of Men?  (I know it cheats digitally but it is still one of my favs)
