Fargo

3 episodes in.

First was a bit slow, but it's started to move along nicely.

Worth a look.

That show is pretty good. IDK about slow? A lot of shit has gone down in 3 episodes.

Loved the shower scene and buddy about to get some stripper pussy being ruined by the dumb ass kid with the crossbow was priceless.

Yeah maybe you're right...I think it's gotten better though.

Hahha...and when the one kid took the hockey stick to the other kid in the first episode.

You know that fucker's going to get gangrene...I don't know if it'll kill him or if there will be some fucked up scene with him hacking his arm off himself. And the two cops will fall in love or some shit.

Billy Bob’s best since Bad Santa.

He's playing everyone.

I like how he goes in the office and drags the guy out by his tie.

Bloody showers!

Lester Nygaard is kiling me. If people in Minnesota/North Dakota are really like that, it'd make me fucking crazy.

Yeah there's a lot of shit going on but the pacing is slow as fuck. Some really good shit in the 3rd episode. Between this and the American's I'm on pins and needles every week for the new episode.

I'd like to see more out of Bob Odenkirk. He can be funny motherfucker.

I think the money the Fod King found back in the 80s is the money Steve Buscemi's character burries in the snow in the movie.

Hahah. You're just now getting that, Darth? Didn't you see the scene where he digs it up on his way into town? Same ice scraper and everything.

Got an inkling when I saw the scene but it did not click for a few minutes. (Been a long time since I had scenee the film and forgot it took place in 87, not in 96 when the film came out.

Shit's getting convoluted and interesting. I did like how Malvo took care of business in Fargo and how the insurance claim is being 'worked out'

The way they filmed the scene with the camera panning the mirrored windows and the sounds was a cinematic master stroke.

The way he pulls the H&K out in front of the two FBI goons and they don't notice was great. =D>

Yeah that was great with Lester dog banging Hess's widow. The primalness of the idea of having one of your enemies killed and then shoving your cock all up in her while conspiring to get some of that money is pretty appealing. :supz:

At the same time Lester has gone from someone you fel sorry for, to someone who made a horrible impulse action and now is a fucking scumbag, brotherfucker yet growing some balls is a great character study. Martin Freeman is a fucking master actor.

Lester get lower and lower. Send your wife in as a decoy, damn that's low.

I hope the show ends with him in prison being fucked in the ass.

stop commenting on this thread. I keep thinking it's about the movie, which interests me, rather than a TV show, which doesn't.

OK. Solid wrap up. I get the feeling we'll see another season of Fargo, only with the police woman's dad in it, about the incidents in 1979.

That would be cool. Or we will see something go down while she is chief?

Good going Gus. A man kills for his family and for his honour if it comes to that. Fuck arresting, telling his wife and the other cops where the guy is, just wait and kill him on the couch, without a big speech.

God yes, I almost turned it off when Gus was walking towards the cabin before Malvo left, because I was certain Malvo was going to kill him. That scene just made me super anxious for some reason. He overcame his fears of leaving his daughter and new wife alone in the world, and went from a sheep to a sheepdog.

So, in the mythology of the whole "Fargo" world, you had the initial movie, then this season...the fact that they alluded to shit happening in 1979 2-3 times during the season lead me to believe that they are going to go there next if there is another season.

Holy crap, never would have recognized Lester actor from his other roles.
One of the downsides of the Internet is that it allows like-minded people to form communities, and sometimes those communities are stupid.

I found it interesting how they did a complete story line in -was it?- 10 episodes. Most shows tend to drag after awhile.
