1. I will admit that Fargo has been guilty of being so far up its own rear end with mythology / magic / bullshit to its own detriment. 2. LET'S loving GO! What a good episode, for ways that I don't even understand fully.

Season 1 had plenty of "filler" where Molly tries to run down a lead but doesn't really get anywhere, and Malvo prepares to rip off the Supermarket King, but doesn't execute yet. I don't know if there was ever a full episode of "nothing happening", but slow burns and building suspense have been in this show since the beginning.

Tag yourself. I'm enema guy. Only halfway through the episode, but I just loved that bit for some reason. E: Okay, everything about Lenore sincerely hurts my heart. I need some kind of 5 second, in passing shot in the finale that shows that she's alright. oh jay fucked around with this message at 01:36 on Dec 7, 2023 |

I mean, Dot chose him because he is the opposite of Jon Hamm presumably. I have no issues.

pointlessone posted:I didn't know they were stand alone-ish per season, I think I'll stick with season 5 and roll back on the others later so I can see discussions live. Thanks! Halfway through the season the thread will be going wild at the return of Glup Shitto, and you'll have no idea what's happening.

CatstropheWaitress posted:You joke but drat if that surprise S4 character return wasn't perfect. For season 4, it was pretty obvious from the initial press releases saying it was about black criminals and that there was a character named Milligan, that one of the characters was going either be Mike or maybe Mike's dad. And by the time Satchel become attached to him by the waist, it was a forgone conclusion.

I can't explain why, but somehow this season seems closest to the movie since season 1, so I don't think he's completely off base. But it's just a vibes thing, nothing I can articulate.

CatstropheWaitress posted:Dot might win, but Fargo has a wonky karma. Generally points towards the heroes, but wobbles. Thinking Bilbo's wife in the first season, Swango's fate in the third. Hope she does. Chris Rock had the weirdest ending in season 4.

Dot's troubles started when she turned around and tazed the wrong person in a unruly auditorium. Now Roy gets in trouble by turning around and punching the wrong person in an unruly auditorium. Good poo poo.

DeadFatDuckFat posted:I get the feeling that Indira might be on the chopping block now that she's joined team Debt Collector I feel like Danish's death and Gator's likely death fills the quota. I don't think we're getting another massacre of Sioux Falls. Maybe the FBI agents will eat it like Key & Peele.

I rewatched the scene to see if there was anything interesting about those 3 men. Some of the debt totals were off screen, but it looks like he might have just been picking tallish men with brown hair. Very convenient for him that the Lyons track height and hair color.

f#a# posted:Regarding Linda, my read on the situation was that Dot fell asleep at the wheel prior to arriving at the gas station, and the wrapping "wakeup" of the pancake and semi truck crash was in fact still a dream, but I'm still unclear on where she was actually trying to go. The bulletin board at the diner had a chicken piccata recipe and an ad for puppets. Her dream happens when she doses off for half a second and gets jolted awake by the pancakes.

Season 1 has a lot of soul in some of the asides, B plots, and vignettes. The ones that jump out immediately are The Man Who Gave Everything and Bob Odenkirk's foster son, but I think every episode has something that sticks with you and makes you think.

The first half of the episode was the saddest Fargo has ever made me. The second half of the episode made me laugh more than Fargo ever has. "A man--" "BISCUITS"

There's a "rule" of writing that I've always liked. Coincidence can be used to get characters in trouble. It can't be used to get characters out of trouble. The truck was real and the crash as it appeared on screen is literally what happened.

quote:But here a long time. From the age of the carrier pigeon and the 600 tribes. The Arapaho, the Cree and the Tonkawa. A man comes, never having seen a mountain. He cannot remember the year of his birth. He is paid to soldier. But one night, he wanders from his post, drawn by the songs of the river. Trying to put together a timeline for Munch (and tie him to the other seasons). Ater he makes it to America, Munch makes friends with some of the Native tribes, but somehow missed the Massacre at Sioux Falls because of "the songs of the river". He stops talking for a 100 years, after which, I'm guessing, he sees a lovely Ronald Reagan movie about the Massacre and gets angry and decides to become a hitman.

New favorite thing from the finale: when Wayne gives Moonch a pop, he says "a man is grateful" which he has previously said. When Scotty tell him how much a cup is, he just blurts out "thank you." He can't keep up the act in the face of overwhelming love and kindness.
