2014 can't get here soon enough.

Brother Mouzone and Avon Barksdale from HBO's "The Wire" have joined the cast of "True Detective," and the rest of the Morning Links.

Now that they’re done renewing “Girls” and “Veep,” continuing the life span of blog posts on what it’s like to be a woman living in New York City and MY GIRL: ALL GROWN UP, HBO has announced an eight-episode, direct-to-series order for “True Detective,” a cop drama starring Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson.

I like Matthew McConaughey.
