So the missus is in Aussie working so I get to watch my guilty pleasures. Binge watching series 2 Fargo, it’s as brilliant as series 1
I loved S2 but I think S3 was even better and that is no slight to S2. The characters were great and seeing Mary Elizabeth Winstead all the time just made it even better.101Walterton wrote: ↑13 Nov 2018, 2:34pmSo the missus is in Aussie working so I get to watch my guilty pleasures.

S3 wasn't quite as compelling to me. I certainly enjoyed the deeper morality play involved, but as a whole the characters and story didn't seize me as well as either of the first two seasons. It's not a huge criticism, mind you, as most tv series don't come close to the third season of Fargo. But comparing it against itself, that one ends up behind the others.revbob wrote: ↑13 Nov 2018, 5:29pmI loved S2 but I think S3 was even better and that is no slight to S2.

I will try and finish 2 and get into 3 before she gets back.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑13 Nov 2018, 5:38pmS3 wasn't quite as compelling to me.

Yeah it could also be a case of S3 being fresher in my mind. And yeah Fargo is way better than most anything else in the TV realm.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑13 Nov 2018, 5:38pmS3 wasn't quite as compelling to me.

I always accepted it as part of the winking, fast-and-loose attitude towards truth—remember that Fargo, movie and tv series, purports to be a true story—but Hawley explains it a bit more here: https://www.indiewire.com/2016/06/fargo ... 201687564/101Walterton wrote: ↑18 Nov 2018, 2:16pmJust finished Fargo 2. Brilliant. But what was the space ship all about?
Thanks for that I get it now. Just wasnt sure if I was missing something.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑18 Nov 2018, 2:51pmI always accepted it as part of the winking, fast-and-loose attitude towards truth—remember that Fargo, movie and tv series, purports to be a true story—but Hawley explains it a bit more here: https://www.indiewire.com/2016/06/fargo ... 201687564/101Walterton wrote: ↑18 Nov 2018, 2:16pmJust finished Fargo 2.

Yeah, I rewatched it a few months ago. Just brilliantly done.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑18 Nov 2018, 9:46am
Re-watched this yesterday evening and this morning. So goddamned good. Captures schlocky horror perfectly.
I just started watching. Not sure if I like it, but I am 10 episodes in.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑19 Nov 2018, 12:07pmI've tried a couple times because I adore Eugene Levy and Catherine O'Hara, but it never caught me.
