We may be getting that third season of True Detective after all.
Series creator Nic Pizzolatto is working on a third season with Deadwood creator David Milch.
Reports suggest the duo are in the early stages of writing a possible third season, but as yet there is no series order by HBO.
HBO programming president Casey Bloys has previously noted, “We’re open to someone else writing it with Nic supervising it; it’s a really valuable franchise for us.
“It’s not dead; I’m just not sure we have the right take for a third season — yet.”
In January he said Pizzolato was closing in on ideas he was excited about.
True Detective‘s first season with Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson won universal acclaim and award nominations, but the second season which starred Colin Farrell, Vince Vaughn and Rachel McAdams, was uneven with mixed reviews at best.

The shows producers will have to get their casting right. Season 2 was let down somewhat by the weak lead performances of the actors and lacked the extant evil that pervade season one, in other words the shows producers wanted to capitalise on former success but forgot about creative consistency, something not uncommon in this age of production line U.S. drama shows.
