This article is about the first season of HBO's anthology crime drama True Detective, which was created by Nic Pizzolatto and starred Matthew McConaughey, Woody Harrelson, Michelle Monaghan, Tory Kittles, and Michael Potts. Its story follows McConaughey (as detective Rustin Cohle) and Harrelson (as Martin Hart) and their pursuit of a serial killer over a seventeen year period.
Having achieved GA status last August, further improvements have been made since, and I believe this article meets the FA criteria. This is its second FAC; unfortunately the first one received minimal attention. Graham Beards has given me permission to renominate the article within the 2 week limit. Cheers!

- Comment – Nice beefy article. I made a few small manual of style changes. This sentence "Critics have offered many readings of the influence of weird and horror fiction on True Detective 's narrative, specifically Thomas Ligotti and Robert W. Chambers' short story collection The King in Yellow (1895)" probably needs to be rephrased. To me it reads as if The King in Yellow is a work written by both Ligotti and Chambers. P. S.

- Noted and done, I switched the order of the wording if that's enough. Thank you for your feedback. :) DAP388 (talk) 13:55, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Closing comment -- Unfortunately this article has again failed to attract reviewers so I'll archive the nomination shortly; because there's so little commentary, I'll waive the usual two-week waiting period for an further nomination, and perhaps it'll be third time lucky...
