The best show Netflix ever produced. It's so sad it's not going into more seasons. That the BIG problem with Netflix shows

[@bradlloyd6261]

I agree ! THIS WAS, MASTERFUL!

[@sakurathornsickle5681]

Unless it’s a rip off and directed toward teenagers of course.

[@deadlock1011]

Apparently Fincher is more optimistic about doing season 3 than he was before Mank was released

[@myhologram3125]

It's not Netflix's fault in this case. David Fincher just said he doesn't feel like making a new season. I'm sure that eventually he will want to again. For all intents and purposes, we haven't gotten season 3 because Fincher took a break from it.

[@terrondt]

@@myhologram3125 very long break apparently

[@sonnypearce5279]

Holt was born for this role, he literally is Bill Tench.

[@barfymann362]

Allegedly he tried to meet with the real Son of Sam, who goes by the name "Son of Hope" now. Berkowitz declined.

I loved that they gave him more screen time

David is a genius. How he manages to make us excited in a series about serial killers, with little to no violence at all, still surprises me

Love how Fincher was always keeping Holt in mind for roles and finally found one he could offer him. So sweet, Holt is great in the show too.

[@FrancisFilmsYT]

[@noidreamers]

I'm here for Groff's voice. It's kinda weird seeing him in Holden Ford mode during interviews lol. He's usually so bubbly and cheeky, maybe he's nervous in front of his idol (Fincher) xD

[@earlyoyster2793]

I love Holt. He seemed so gentle and articulate. I always get teary eyed whenever he talks about how grateful he is with his roles. :)

[@isaacgraham5727]

I saw an interview with him from a few months ago where he was talking about how amazing it is that after ~30 years of constant auditioning and schlepping for any role he could find, after Mindhunter for the first time in his career he no longer has to audition - people are finally writing roles with him in mind and sending his agent scripts all the time.

[@lazylurker2842]

Fincher changed TV (Netflix) with House of Cards and Mindhunter. Some of the best episodic content I've ever watched. And despite what people say about Zodiac, it's one of my favorite movies.

[@jimmydivicio838]

How could this show NOT receive a third season?! It’s one of the most brilliant shows ever! Original, bold, dark, intense, intelligent. Incredible writing. Inspired, nuanced, dare i say perfect performances by the whole cast but especially the great Jonathan Groff and Holt MacNalley and all the actors playing in the seeial killers. And of course the mad genius David Fincher at his best

[@thatfilmydesaikid]

Apparently the viewing numbers weren't feasible enough for the cost that was going into the show. But this statement is from a few years ago when Netflix initially cancelled its renewal. Recently, could be thanks to the following it's grown, Fincher said They might get around to it sometime soon, given everyone's dates start lining up.

Holt is an amazing actor. It's hard to believe he was struggling to get an important role. He's perfect for this role. A guy with great social skills, down to earth and a great team player. He would have been perfect as Batou in a non-crappy adaptation of Ghost In The Shell. edit: Batou instead of Baito

David Fincher plus John Douglas’ life is a recipe for an amazing story. One of my favourite movies is Manhunter and to see this Netflix series about Douglas is a dream come true. I read the book on BTK written by Douglas and to see it acted on screen is wonderful. Thank you from all of us who love these detective stories. For me it is not about the killers, it is about the detectives trying to solve a diabolical puzzle.

[@linajurgensen4698]

Jonathan and Holt in the series remind me a lot of Connor and Hank in Detroit: become human.

[@firenze5555]

Fascinating show - what a shame they haven't made season 3!!!!

[@alrightchris3030]

Zodiac is by far my favorite film. Although I do undertand the criticism against it, I think having no closure adds to the overall themes of the film, it adds to that notion throughout the film kf obsession. All of the characters in the film are obsessed with Zodiac, and where did it lead them? Having no closure just makes the film not only more realistic, but it inherently humanized all of the horrific events shown in the film.

[@darrenboylan651]

Well, the case doesn't have closure, either. Adds to the mystique.

[@26michaeluk]

If people criticize it for not having closure, they're the type of people who need to be spoon fed a tidy resolute ending.

Seeing Mindhunter is one of the reasons to live ! What a huge risk David Fincher has taken . He has made this very words oriented . The visuals are dull green. The characters all look depressed & low energy . The music is just plain . The focus is purely on words Such clarity , such depth , such continuity such great learnings about the criminal mind & at large about the human mind . Sometimes you tire because of the monotony but the learnings compel you to move forward . Thank you internet . Thank you Netflix . Thank you all the people that believe in intelligent cinema I usually read the book after the movie I read Mindhunter by John Douglas who is like a combo of Bill & Holden - the REAL FBI Founder of the Behavioural Science Unit What a treat !

If i was Fincher or those actors, i would be fuming. Thank god he went forward and the rest of the interview was good.

[@anti0918]

Yes there is no question Charlie Rose is a terrible interviewer, and always has been.

[@anthoneyrago]

Watching this show, listening to these discussions, being a child development major I’ve never questioned the perpetrators understanding of right and wrong. I’m pretty sure they understand what they are doing is wrong. I see the problem as more of an impulse control issue. In all these interviews i hear the same key terms of gratification, satisfying impulses. Why can’t they control their impulses? I think every human on the planet can safely say they have wanted to hurt someone but they can control that desire. Why can’t these people control that impulse the way others can?

[@donnythompson9233]

I just finished watching both seasons (yeah, I do realize that I’m way late to this particular party), and I thought that the series was incredibly well-done…it had me hooked from the very first episode. IMO, the writing was stellar, as was the casting - not only with the actors who played the members of the BSU team, but also with the fantastic actors who portrayed the real infamous killers; Damon Herriman as Manson (who, BTW, also portrayed Manson in Quentin Tarantino’s “Once Upon A Time In Hollywood”), Oliver Cooper as David Berkowitz, Jack Erdie as Richard Speck, Christopher Livingston as Wayne Williams, Happy Anderson as Jerry Brudos, etc., were all so perfectly cast, giving absolutely outstanding performances… Oh…and Cameron Britton as Ed Kemper? Holy cow! If you’ve ever seen interviews with the real Ed Kemper, you’d have to agree that Britton’s portrayal of him was so spot-on, being both brilliant and chilling (and if Britton didn’t win an Emmy for it, or at the very least be nominated for one, he damned-well should have!) Each episode was done very well in terms of historical accuracy, too - not only providing a glimpse into the dark, twisted minds of very real serial and mass killers, but also in its fascinating look into the origins of The FBI’s Behavioral Sciences Unit in its fledgling years. As a side note, even the music/songs chosen deserve a big thumbs up, too, as they were 100% accurate to the time frame of each episode, and remaining so as the years passed in the series, and that’s rare, as directors often take broad liberties with the music used in period pieces. My only regret about watching the Mindhunter series, is finding out that the end of season two was it, that there wouldn’t be any more seasons! I mean, dayyummm! You can’t hook me into a series like that and then just end it! 😖

There are 15 top directors. 1_SKubrick 2_Hitchcock the rest go up and down. I love Fincher but I don't know if one can tell he is better than MScorsese. We should rate great directors according to their capacity to achieve excellence in different genres.

[@livelovelaughimagine]

I would have rather watched a roundtable interview in which Jonathan, Holt, and Fincher just talked about the show amongst themselves. I get the impression someone else came up with Charlie Rose’s questions, and I am skeptical that he even watched the show.

[@cheminem]

Unfortunately I agree. It is a lot to expect Rose to watch 20 hours of television for a 40 minute interview. If he did this with all of his guests he would probably have no time for himself. But it is definitely necessary for a good interview.

[@rebeccanascimento8234]

This may be an unpopular opinion, but I would much rather have Finher do series instead of movies. Its exaclty the medium that allows him to put all of his creativity with time and patience, laying out the character in such a way I honestly didnt really feel in Benjamin Button or even Zodiac. This show was an incredible binge and he was so right about Groff, the really gives this honesty necessary to sell the character , like he is on our side. Holt is my favorite character in the show, his moral compass connects deep into my heart, a real honest, kind, good man. I really miss Anna Torv in this conversations, she was crucial to how the show unravelled and he did her character with exceptional care. As a woman, who felt particularly distress with the content on the show, her professionalism made me see the show in a different light. Almost like and academic study, just like in her vision. Long story short, i need 5 seasons as it was promised. Dont care if they pick it up years later. This is nop noch production.
