Fargo; it's back (No spoilers please!)

[John the Monkey]

No spoilers from me @guitarpete247 ..
but i really enjoyed it..
i liked the first one more but BBT made that ..great actor

I think I like this one better - more, stronger characters, I think. I particularly like the Solversons, and the Kansas City crew. The Gerhardts make an interesting take on the "out of their depth" characters typical of Fargo.

We're about halfway through. It's brilliant and I can't quite imagine where it's going to end up, but I'm looking forward to the show-down between the Kansas City dudes and the Gerhardts.

I suspect it's going to be brutal, if the way they dispatched the typewriter salesman is anything to go by.

Totally agree with you @John the Monkey - the first series was great, but I felt it was carried by Allison Tolman, which was no bad thing but she was clearly the strongest character. Personally I prefer a strong ensemble rather than relying on one person/story to carry a show. Feels like a more Coen-esque way of doing things too.

 

[BrumJim]

Just over half way through. Good stuff. Some nice characters, and some lovely foils as well.

Been fooled a few times already - completely missing plot twists and guessing the wrong way instead.

Aaaarrrrrrrggghhhh!

For some reason the series link didn't work so we got to 8 and had no more.

And there was only an hour left to watch 9 on 4OD. SophRM, in her knackered state graciously allowed me to watch, but I don't want her to miss such an excellent episode. I've paused the player at the beginning of the episode but I doubt that will work by tomorrow.

Anyone know of a source I could get it from? Legit if possible... A hunt around my usual haunts has let me down.

We feel your pain - ours also recorded 8 too, but luckily we were in time to get the last two. I'm afraid I don't know where else it'll be, unless it turns up on youtube at some point...

Episode 10 is still available on All4 for a few more days if that helps

 

[BrumJim]

We've probably got them on our TiVo, if you fancy popping round?

Just putting the sprouts on. Fancy chocolate coated or caramel coated?

Yah, there was an advert for it on C4 recently. I don't remember the broadcast date mentioned but it won't be too long now, youbetcha.

Meanwhile, I am enjoying Better Call Saul on Netflix.

 

[Shaun]

Love Fargo, yeah. Glad it's coming back for another series, ya know ... one to record there ...

 

[philk56]

Well they said sometime in May and it starts on Channel 4 next Wednesday 31st, so just made it! I am away for the next four weeks so will have to binge on recordings when I get back
