What critics compared True Detective to
Lanterns actively invites comparisons to the moody and masterful first season of True Detective.
…so it’s not quite as True Detective–y just yet, despite that show’s writer Chris Mundy having co-created this one…
…takes a very grounded approach, following in the tradition of shows like True Detective and Slow Horses…
But Lanterns is less interested in turning Green Lantern into True Detective than in using the procedural framework to pull apart one of the mythology’s defining ideas.
Clear comparisons with True Detective have been invited by the producers themselves, but Lanterns' various influences span further…
The grimy tendrils of True Detective, Top of the Lake, and even Fargo stretch out in familiar fashion across the grounded superhero detective show's first seven episodes.
Really? Are we watching a romcom or a season of True Detective?
