It has been 11 years since True Detective took the world by storm, and I’ve been chasing the high of that first season ever since. Despite there being some great offerings, nothing has scratched that itch. That could change with Task, HBO’s new crime show on the 2025 TV schedule, which centers on a massive investigation after a botched home invasion turns into kidnapping and possible gang war.
Though it’s still too early to tell (only a few episodes of the seven-part limited series have come out so far), I’m starting to think the show starring Mark Ruffalo and Tom Pelphrey is going to be the one. The series is getting rave reviews so far, and I cannot wait to see how this emotional, intense, and thrilling crime saga unfolds.
