Fargo

Newer show, started a few weeks ago. If you're not watching it, you should. Don't be a loser.

Good show

Lexington Elysian Fields

Re-watching the movie required?

Robtard Senor Member

No. There are some scenes that if you have the movie fresh in your mind you might say "ahhh", but if you're film ignorant, you're fine.

This has also turned out to be a great show. Billy Bob is an extra special treat in this. A very memorable villain.

I love it so far. Great cast.

Fantastic series. Billy Bob Thornton was phenomenal.

Spoiler:
To bad his character died. I was hoping he would serve as the "hook" between the seasons.

What a finale!
Best show of the season.

Epicurus True Killer

Watched the first five episodes. Seems to be an interesting series.

Anyone have a guess as to why Lester randomly confronted Billy Bob's character in the bar, instead of just leaving w/o incident..?

He didn't want to "confront" him per se. Rather he wanted to be recognized rather than just ignored as he was pretty much his entire life.

Ego. Which ironically BB's char helped bolster due to the events shown prior in the series.

Smart Lester would have known to run. Egotistical Lester decided to pick a fight. Didn't end well for either of them ultimately.

Edit: Am thinking of making a Lorne Malvo avie/sig now.

marwash22 HELL YEAH.

marwash22 HELL YEAH.

I'm looking forward to this; but it's probably gonna suffer from 'True Detective' syndrome, in that, there's no way it's gonna be as well done as the first season.

Anyone still watching this? The second season is shaping up to be every bit as great as the first.

Robtard Senor Member

I'm waiting until S2 is over so I can marathon it in a few chapters. I hate having to wait week after week for a show I love.

marwash22 HELL YEAH.

I thought this was gonna be an anthology type deal, which is why i assumed there'd be a dip in quality like 'True Detective'.

The main characters in season one were better, but the quality of the show hasn't declined in the slightest.

it's easily the best show on tv atm.

It is the best show on TV atm. Another great ep the other night, this whole season has been top notch and it keeps getting better.

Carl Weathers was hilarious

So they went the UFO route with this. Srsly.

Wow, this show rocks! Even better than series 1, which is almost impossible.

And the UFO route is just a thingy, you know... it's the Coen Brothers spirit all over this thing. And as usual, it's not out of the blue. There was a major UFO sighting by a police officer in Minnesota 1979: http://www.ufocasebook.com/minnesotasheriff1979.html

In other words: bloody brilliant!

Galan007 |Quantum Observer|

Yeah, I guess I just don't see any reason at all for the show to randomly introduce the UFO mythos. /shrug

Still a great series... I just didn't care for that, is all.
