True Detective is going to go down as one of television's best shows of 2014. It was amazingly acted and visually unmatched by anything else currently on television. But looking back now that it's over, it's funny to think about all the articles and blogs that I've read over the course of the series with all these predictions and theories about who "The Yellow King" was. The reason it's funny is that True Detective wasn't that kind of show. The media and fans treated True Detective in the same way they treated Lost. Combing through the episode more than once looking for clues and Easter eggs that, now that we know the ending, weren't even there. This show was never about who The Yellow King was. This show was about the relationship between Marty Hart and Rust Cohle and not much more.
