i guess it's notable as the only season where the cops aren't the protagonists.

If you want an idea of how bad Chris Rock was, all you need to do is watch this clip. Seeing the same lines back-to-back with a bad actor then a good one really highlights it. Most people agree that episode 9 "East/West" is the best episode and it stands enough on its own that you can watch just that one and be fine skipping everything else.

Bokeem/Mike might be the best in the whole series, hard act to follow.

Dot probably doesn't want to merk someone in front of her family. in addition it would complicate her probably doomed attempts to hang on to her Normal life.

It's been so long since I've seen the season, mind refreshing my memory who you're referring to?

"head in a bag. there's the message."

Hanzee has his face hosed up, gets plastic surgery, becomes the crime boss you see in the Chinese restaurant that gets killed by Malvo later.

Morals and life lessons are best taught from a magical bowling alley.

Bowling alleys are like motor hotels, innately supernatural places. strange things happen.

Munch is a Chigurh remix i guess, he has Rules and if you violate the Rules you're hosed. old lady gave Munch hospitality and pancakes and Gator killed her. Gator is not long for the world.

i feel like i can't judge until i watch the whole season like three times, Fargo likes to show me new things when i rewatch it, but i'd say it's better than 3+4.

it's rough being a right hand man/consigliere in Fargo-land. not sure if dying or being lobotomized is worse.

doubt we'll see Gator again. abandoned in the liminal nowhere space.

If helping to perpetuate unjust systems was an issue for her, she wouldn’t have been a cop in the first place

it's a fantastical tv show show during which we all agree to suspend our disbelief for a little while and believe there is such a thing as a "good cop."

i forgot how visceral season 3 is. between varga's eating disorder and the guy who got crushed by the ac unit, really plays up the body horror

only just finished ep5 on my rewatch but i think s3 is still my favourite

also the bit where Nikki gets beat half to death. hurts just to look at it.
