True Detective: Night Country | Episode 02 | Bonus with Dean

Published: Jan. 25, 2024, 2:03 a.m.

We all know how much Dean likes to run his mouth and be a smarty pants, especially with all the minutiae that he jazzes on joining dots hither and yon.

There was SO much to unpack in Episode 2 that even though we spent an hour with the legend Joel Montgrand, we still couldn\u2019t cover all the twists and turns in that episode.\xa0

So if you don\u2019t dig the digging deep, give this one a miss. But of you like getting down and dirty (or frosty) with all the easy-to-miss connections and fan theories looking ahead \u2026 then dive in !

Let us know what you think and ask Dean followup questions on our True Detective: Night Country Fan page on the Book of Faces here https://www.facebook.com/groups/3518353335092244
