It waa alright. Set up the lore for season 2 nicely I thoughT. Definitely worst out of the 4 seasons though. Would have been a lot better without Chris Rock. Terrible performance.
I finished season 2 and watched the movie last night, now I am starting season 1 in my chronological rewatch. 2 before 1 is definitely the way to go. I would recommend anyone watching for the first time to start with 2 and then do 1.
you have inspired me to start on this path as well for a rewatch. I’m two episodes into S4 and I’m not sure I can make it through lol. I forgot how bad bad bad Andrew Bird is in this. Same problem, but to a lesser extent, with Schwartzman
One gap in the lore I am wondering will get filled, is when did Moses Tripoli/Hanzee take out the Kansas City mob to take over Fargo? I hope we get a season about this eventually. I dont think we have seen the last of Hanzee or Mike Milligan.
Chris Rock was the worst part for me. Jessie Buckley and Ben Wishaw were the saving graces of that season. I would say get through it just because it makes watching season 2 right after better.
It really is. And this is coming from someone that liked that character during my first viewing. Think I was just so happy to have a new season of the show to notice it at the time.
The funeral director's daughter subplot of season 4 also felt kind of pointless. I mean I know she presents a McGuffin to the main plot later on, but it doesn't feel like it paid off.
Watching all of Fargo all at once made me realize the reoccurring theme of this franchise is male inadequacy .
I keep forgetting to post but doing my first ever rewatch of s2 and it’s so fucking good. It holds up extremely well and I don’t understand what happened to Noah’s writing after s3/Legion s1
"The small town upper midwestern cop thinking he is the hero, but actually is a villain" is a great twist on Fargo's typical trope. I hope Hamm is full on evil.
