Lanternshas been the most exciting superhero television show in quite some time because it doesn’t adhere to genre conventions. Instead of offering just another origin story, Lanterns explores the relationship between two members of the Green Lantern Corps across three timelines that intersect to form a larger mystery. It’s the shake-up that the DCU needed, and it's no surprise that True Detectivehas been cited as a primary influence on Lanterns. When True Detective debuted on HBO in 2014, it elevated what "prestige television” could be. Not only was it a weekly show that starred A-list actors, but also a creative, impeccably crafted work of storytelling that featured filmmaking better than the majority of what was released in theaters that year. Although not every subsequent season has been quite as good, Season 1 of True Detective is one of the most accomplished projects that HBO has ever released.
