True Detective season four received criticism for its finale, prompting the show’s original creator, Nic Pizzolatto, to attack the series online by reposting unfavorable comments on Instagram. Now he’s making a separate post for fans to express their outrage.
“TRUE DETECTIVE AGGREGATE POST – this here is the place for all your trolling/support/infighting around ‘True Detective’ and the absolute moral degeneracy and misogyny of anyone who did not think it was good,” the title of the post reads.
He went on to say, “Let’s move these screeds off my posts about my wife, true love, and my father’s death, kay?”
“I’d say ‘stay civil,’ but of course, civility has no place when criticism of a television show indicates some form of Hitlerian evil that must be stamped out,”
“So, roll on, tide. Satire is acceptable, and please try to have a pleasant day.”
Interestingly, Nic was listed as an executive producer for the fourth season but did not write it.
True Detective: Night Country, starring Jodie Foster, aired six episodes and ended on February 18.
