Looks like it’s time to overthink every little detail about Season 3.

It’s very brief, but in that first shot her laptop shows a newspaper clipping that reads “Former State Police Officers Stop Alleged Serial Killer” with photos of-yep, you guessed it-our old pals Rust Cohle and Marty Hart (Woody Harrelson).
In the teaser that HBO dropped Sunday night, we get a brief glimpse of journalist Elisa Montgomery (Sarah Gadon) showing Old Man Hays (Ali) her laptop in the 2015 timeline, and later asking him whether he’d thought there was a “larger conspiracy” tied to the Purcell case. These two seasons could be connected in a much more meaningful way. It’s possible, however, that Pizzolatto is doing more this season than replaying some of Season 1’s greatest hits. It makes sense that writer-creator Nic Pizzolatto has decided to embrace the things that made his series into a phenomenon in the first place. (Not that we disliked Rust Cohle it’s just that nobody could reach Peak Lincoln Commercial Era McConaughey without bordering on parody.) It’s all brought together with a commanding lead performance by Mahershala Ali, whose character Wayne Hays, thankfully, isn’t as prone to booze-aided philosophizing as Matthew McConaughey’s Rust Cohle. In other words, Season 3 has emulated everything people loved about the first season-multiple timelines, vague intimations at some kind of overarching conspiracy, occult-like undertones, missing children, etc.-without being overly complicated for the sake of being overly complicated. A familiar refrain from critics praising the third season of True Detective is that the show has returned to its roots and maintained a “back to the basics” ethos that’s been, well, a lot easier to digest.
