Oh sure. Six episodes into “True Detective,” it feels like we should just hold the Emmys now and we should get down to debating where it stands in the pantheon of the Greatest Shows Ever.
There’s just one problem: You can’t judge a detective drama until you see how it resolves its big mystery. Remember how much people liked “The Killing” once? Remember how betrayed they felt by the way its first season ended? “True Detective” mastermind Nic Pizzolatto co-wrote the season finale for “The Killing.” (He has said he was carrying out the vision of that show’s creator.)
