"True Detective" season 4 hasn't been flawless, but it's undoubtedly been a hit for HBO and the streaming service Max. Jodie Foster's performance as Liz Danvers has largely been masterful, showing a command of the script and the room. Kali Reis has also been impressive as Trooper Evangeline Navarro in what is her first TV appearance ever.
The critical reviews have largely matched this assessment. The season has received a 93% "fresh" rating on Rotten Tomatoes, with nearly all critics praising the performance and the hints of horror around the show's majestic, dark setting.
