Stunning finale. So many great scenes. Everything about it was perfect. Dunst and Danson had the best moments. Just give Kirsten Dunst all the awards already.

Interesting to note that Hanzee's new ID had the same surname as Lorne Malvo's boss in season 1 and he just so happened to break up a fight between the bullies and a deaf kid. :o: :o

Bring on season 3! Best show on tv without a doubt, this.

Just finished season 1, my comments (spoilered for spoilers):

1. Malvo was such a badass, he was like the Terminator mixed with Jason Bourne.
2 what a shame he was killed in such a crappy way, I hated that Gus Grimley, such a little pussy bitch.
3. How did Grimley not get arrested for committing murder in the first degree when executing Malvo? Doesn't make any sense that he got a citation for bravery, he straight up murdered an unarmed injured man. No matter how bad Malvo was he should have been arrested and put on trial.
4. I loved how violent and brutal the show was. Coming off the back of 3 seasons of the good but totally benign Suits, this was just what I needed :twisted:
5. The blonde lady/girlfriend that Malvo had hooked up with then killed in the lift had a cracking body :datass:


Looking forward to starting season 2 although I don't think it'll be as good as the first.

It's probably better. You won't be disappointed at any rate.

Just the last ep of season 2 to go. Honestly one of the best series of television I've ever seen. Series 1 was good but this has completely blown it out of the water.

‘Fargo’: Ewan McGregor Set As the Lead In Season 3 Of FX Limited Series In Dual Role

Ewan McGregor is the latest feature actor to topline an installment of FX’s Emmy-winning anthology series Fargo. McGregor will play the two central characters — brothers Emmit and Ray Stussy — in the upcoming third season, which is supposed to be set closer to present day than the first two installments.

Emmit Stussy is the Parking Lot King of Minnesota. A handsome, self-made, real estate mogul and family man, he sees himself as an American success story. His slightly younger brother, on the other hand, is more of a cautionary tale. Balding and pot-bellied, Ray is the kind of guy who peaked in high school. Now a parole officer, he has a huge chip on his shoulder about the hand he’s been dealt, and he blames Emmit for his misfortunes.

McGregor is the first actor cast in the third installment of Fargo, which tentatively is scheduled to begin production later this year for premiere on FX in 2017.

Can't wait for the third series. The first two series are probably my favourite TV of the last couple of years.

Is the second season on 4OD or any of the various Netflixs?

Watched, and loved the first, but missed the first few episodes of the second when they aired.

That's great news. S2 was one of the best series of anything, ever. Absolutely incredible television.

I'm not sure where it can be found. It's not on UK Netflix and I couldn't see it on 4OD either.

Carrie Coon Joins ‘Fargo’ Season 3 In Lead Role

The Leftovers star Carrie Coon has been tapped for a lead role opposite Ewan McGregor in the third season of FX’s Emmy-winning anthology series Fargo.

Coon will play Gloria Burgle, a practical woman who grabs the fire extinguisher when the bacon catches fire and everyone else panics. Gloria is the chief of the Eden Valley police, and a newly divorced mother, who is struggling to understand this new world around her where people connect more intimately with their phones than the people right in front of them.

I'm just catching up on season 2 of Fargo now it's on UK netflix. The scene with Reagan in the toilet was just superb, Campbell absolutely nailed it. I guess it's been said before but this season is just as good as season 1. It hasn't had a stand out performance like BBT but I think the cast as a whole is better, particularly Bear and fat Matt Damon.

Just finished the first series the day before yesterday and started season 2 last night. Not sure why, but my interest level dropped a lot. Hopefully it will pick up.

Yes?

The problem I had is that when I lose interest, I pick up my phone and start checking stuff on the internet at the same time, which then leads to me not watching properly and losing more interest. :fp:

The last 5 minutes was kind of an interesting build up to what the series could be about, but we'll see....

Yes?
