"Whether it comes from a ghost or a man who would rather be one, the big talkers in True Detective sure love their exposition," says Ben Travers. "And that’s OK, since just as much meaning could be gleaned when no one said a word. It just depends what you’re looking for in Nic Pizzolatto’s Season 3 finale. For the at-home detectives, two big speeches provide as much clarity to the case as you could desire, while the silent moments are reserved for those more invested in characters than plot. 'Now Am Found' is stubbornly determined to satisfy each kind of viewer, and while the last stretch of road is a little long, the engine a tad clunky, there’s a charming ease to the drive that proves comforting."
