Television True Detective: Night Country | Season 4 | FINALE SPOILERS

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) are here to discuss Amad saving our blushes in a win against Southampton as well as our now annual loss at home to Brighton. They discuss Amorim's post-match comments, revisit how mid-table we may or may not be, and discuss some transfer news.
It was suggested that it was the cops, Eccelstone or similar, as the scientists didn't cut it out.
How was it suggested? Or is that the only remaining iption
Only in so far as Clark seemed to genuinely deny that the scientists did it. Which suggested the cops did it.
Supernatural bollocks aside.
It‘s been said, that the corrupt cop (edit: Clark) staged the murder scene - implying that he also cut the tongue. It was never really established that more cops/officials were involved (which is a pity since why leave that possibility out of the equation) except very vaguely and it never had any consequences.
If you ask about who put the tongue into Tsalal station: no, idea and every possible explanation sounds pants to me.
The scientist guy stepped on the phone when he ran over to save her
He's talking about the second time.
My question is why didn't the power get cut when Annie K was being killed, which it did in the recording (and they made a point about it)? I don't want to go back and watch the episode again, but I don't remember it happening.
Same here. While obviously not as good as the 1st, it had its moments. A couple memorable shootouts and that scene where Colin Farrell goes to town with an 8-ball and a bottle of whiskey
I'd completely forgotten about this
I think the second enjoyable for what it is too.
First viewing was a big let down but that‘s like coming in first after Fergie.
Albeit a bit predictable for the final solution I thought the ending very satisfying in S3 - no huge twist but it made sense, how they wrote it with the alzheimer playing a big part, almost a bit heartbreaking imho, and how Ali acted in it. The racial theme was so much better written in it than now the natives / environmental / female angle.

Absolutely. One of the great acting performances.
Of course. Like so many other things in this season it didn't actually have any ramifications.
Nonsensical.
Just finished it.
Wow. What a shitshow.
There were a few red flags here and there in the first 2 episodes, and episodes 3 and 4 were simply boring fillers, but I didn't expect such a let down.
From the fetishisation of mental health issues to the tokenistic approach to the local natives, the themes of this season were a huge miss. The plot ended up being completely nonsensical, with huge plot holes, and the characters were almost caricatures of what they were trying to be.
0/10 from me.

Also, what the hell was the Annie K video about that they found on her phone? She was killed twice? 
In addition to being next to the research center the ice caves grow back each winter. They were 30cm beneath the ice ffs.
Oh my god, such an unbelievably silly show.

After stropping off to have a power nap.
Was there ever any explanation as to why that Raymond Clark fella had a seizure just before the lights cut out?
There is an explanation, but it's even worse than not having an explanation.
He basically time travelled to the future, where he saw Navarro in episode 6.
Makes sense. I had a similar reaction to Episode 6.
Howd you come up with that?
That's a good looking sandwich, missed that in the first episode.
Time is a flat circle and shit.
And... It's been renewed for season 5. With the same showrunner.

Well that's the franchise dead
Time is a flat circle.
This can't be happening
It was a mega popular season. That's all that matters really in terms of renewal.

Based on what? Genuinely curious.
It was expected that they would renew.
1. It had relatively good watch ratings
2. If they cancelled, they would be labelled sexist/racists etc, which they will probably want to avoid.
We're never going to get anything like season 1 again, we have to live with that.

Viewership
Just finished watching the finale, thought the whole series barring a few moments was terrible.
Point 2 is utter nonsense.
I do feel quite cheated with this one, only reason I watched was because of the reviews and hype. Episode one was decent, then it just went to shit. Reviewers must have been paid off. It's the only explanation.
I only ever watched season 1, when it came out, which was excellent. Are the others any good? I vaguely remember not great reviews hence I never watched.
