Was a pretty nice premiere, tho kind of predictable.

How is this show? I'm a big Bacon fan (pun intended) and I'm looking for something to watch after Breaking Bad (currently on S5).

This isn't really a crime show. When I think of a crime show, I think of a "1 case per episode" kind of show with a few tie-ins here and there.

+ I'm a sucker for Mr. Bacon.

Yes it is. You dismiss true detective as another investigation show when it's one case across the span of 8 episodes. Each season will be one story. There's no side cases unless it's for narrative purposes such as a religious hate crime task force that is introduced to investigate another crime that is completely unrelated though may end up being completely related to the case they're looking into.

1 case per episode is a procedural drama.
There are many different types of crime shows.

From the trailer, True Detective seemed like a 1 case per episode show. Maybe I'll watch the premiere and see for myself.
