I'm hoping Pizza didn't take the whole death route. Maybe there is a personal little happy ending to all this.

If it ends in a Rick Roll, I'll be super pissed,

Spoiler

but I'll laugh super hard too.

Time is a flat circle so it's never really over!

 

[Solo]

First episode I get to watch live......woooo!

SOON.

 

[Ionian]

- HBO uploaded a short teaser for the finale to their TD instagram account (not really spoilerish, might not even be footage from the finale?)

Not spoilery either but at a guess,

Spoiler

Judging by the hands, the old woman they interviewed in the last episode?

If y'all were drowning I'd throw you a fucking barbell.

We are in Carcosa now. TD is a metaphor for perfect breasts.

Marty always liked them crazy.

Time is a flat circle. Episode 8 will end with this.

 

[Gozer the Gozerian]

This is like when I was a kid and we were driving through the snow at night and I imagined we were going into hyperspace.

It's also like the time I did shrooms

I do that all the time.

DADDARIO IS THE YELLOW KING

Time is a flat circle:

Guys... what if it isn't a Yellow King, but... a Yellow Queen?

 

[mre]

No more Rustin Cohle after tomorrow night. ;_;

A sad realization, but not entirely true. What with time being a flat circle and all, Cohle and Hart will always be there, doomed to repeat these 17 years countless times and through endless repeat viewings by the audience.

I wonder if it's going to be a predictable ending (guy being tortured tells them who the yellow king is and they go kill him) or a more twisty ending.

I'd almost prefer if the torturing happens off camera, and we just skip that part. Not cause of any squeamishness just cause I feel there is alot to wrap up in this episode.

 

[Stark]

I'm more curious if Rust's hallucinations will return.

 

[Roody]

I remember seeing some folks complaining about a lack of good posters a while back. But that Mondo one and the pair on Bottleneck are pretty good! I'm gonna throw my hat in the ring though:

And you can get it here.

Ok, so predictions for tonight? Everyone is predicting Rust will die, but I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that won't happen. It's so "obvious" in context of the show that I'm wondering if it's not a red herring.

 

[Kraftwerk]

This is probably my favourite surreal scene next to the murmuration.

 

[DarkJediKnight]

I'm gonna cry after tonight's episode!

I want more Matt and Woody.

 

[santi_yo]

See you all in Carcosa!

 

[kmax]

You know Carcosa?
Him who eats time.
Him robes.
It's a wind of invisible voices.
Rejoice.
Death is not the end.
Rejoice.

Tonight, we're going to Carcosa.

 

[Vire]

1 HOUR AND 45 MINUTES LEFT.

HOLD ME.

Oh shit completely forgot this at 6 now. Can't wait.

Joel McHale skit + "Yellow King Theory" = David Lynch movie.

I see you, NP.

 

[a Master Ninja]

I fully expect a "time is a flat circle" ending, with a resolution but the cycle of murders not truly stopped.

 

[Messypandas]

This is probably my favourite surreal scene next to the murmuration.

With the sneaky little spiral in it

 

[ToyMachine228]

Can anyone post that piece of art of Rust apparently in hell? Watching some weird demons eat people?

 

[lamaroo]

Twist ending, the show is only actually half over, and they announce 8 more episodes.

 

[real_slime]

the only good thing dexter gave us besides season1 and doakes

WE ARE IN CARCOSA

Secret scene after the credits, a trailer for season 2.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Good luck to the East coasters. I'll be staying away from these parts when this goes live just over 45 minutes from now.

 

[ezekial45]

Reddit/Tumblr is a gold mine for funny and amazing fan art.

 

[EdibleExplosives]

I shall meet y'all in Carcosa tomorrow night. I'll be avoiding the internet until then.

 

[The Artful Dodger]

I'll probably watch the show an hour after it airs...cause of reasons...

But I'll be on after that to give my opinons and speculations on Season 2

 

[real_slime]

is there an irc for reactions tonight?

 

[KingK]

This will be on HBO GO right away, right? I want to watch it later so that I can watch Cosmos at 9

Yup

is there an irc for reactions tonight?

Nope

 

[KolosLazar16]

It's on HBOGo at 9 or 10?

 

[Agnostic]

I feel like our world should end after this episode is over.

 

[a Master Ninja]

I had no idea that McConaughey was originally going to be Marty Hart. I can't imagine the show if the roles were reversed.

 

[Cornballer]

It's on HBOGo at 9 or 10?

It should be up in about a half hour.
