Jack F @RT39667463 Feb 24 I stopped watching after two and a half episodes, but then gave it another shot. There were a handful of "can't wait to see what happens next" moments. But, silly dialogue and the cartoonishness of just about all of the male characters kept me from really getting hooked in. They also take their audience for granted by insulting large swaths of the population - men, woman, Christians, Repuplicans, police officers, patriots, rich people, a past and current president, puppeteers, and golfers. Had they put as much effort into making the season entertaining, as they did into pushing their tired agenda, it might have been pretty good.

Juno Temple KILLED it. Jon Hamm was deliciously gross. Jennifer Jason Leigh was amazing (best character arc) David Rysdahl was amazing. Lamorne Morris was great. Richa Moorjani was great. One look at Dave Foley's character and you know you're at home with Fargo. And last but not least, Sam Spruell brings an unexpected supernatural element to the season and absolutely embodied the character he was playing.

The series is plagued by the failure to distinguish between artistry and college level sloganeering. What comes through most clearly is how the desire to be politically instructive completely fails to understand the kind of people it believes need instruction. The first two series of Fargo maintained the style and cleverness of the Cohens, This takes some of that style, for a while is even gripping, and works with a great female character - though why she is attracted to such a sap of a husband makes no sense - and then goes to complete shit.
