HBO got into the moody detective game with Nic Pizzolatto's True Detective (2014-2019), an anthology show with each season focusing on a different set of detectives and a different case. As with shows such as Broadchurch, Happy Valley, and The Fall, the appeal is as much in watching the detectives spiral out of control as it is in solving the case.
The first two seasons were reviewed by Josie Kafka, and the third and fourth seasons by Logan Cox.
