If FX has kept The Americans going for as long as they have, i would be pretty surprised if they canceled Fargo.

And add me to the list that really liked season 1, but thinks season 2 is even better. The casting, the writing, the atmosphere, the tension, really good stuff.

Dunst, Bokeem, Donovan, Wilson are all killing it.

Would listen to the Mike Milligan and the Kitchen Brothers LP.

That's true. Nobody watches The Americans, but it gets widespread critical acclaim. Heck, the show doesn't even get award recognition but it's still going. Plus, The Americans must have a $1 Million+ wig room budget haha

Bokeem Woodbine is really really good on this show.

I loved the standoffs this episode.

And two other things too.

First the line, "It's not like your just gonna drive home...and start supper."
And after the daughter is slapped he hits her foot or backside when closing the case door.

Really good moments are peppered throughout.

Heh ye, that probably hurt if he slammed the door on her ankle.

rewatching Season 1 with my wife, while I watch Season 2 and there are some additional nuanced connections. For example, the cop Lou meets in the Fargo courthouse is Ben Schmidt, who is Gus' lieutenant in Season 1 (obviously, played by a much older actor).

I'm also thinking the trucking company that's discussed is what becomes Sam Hess' trucking company later on.

 

[Linius]

That it's Gus his boss has been pointed out on every page since that episode aired now

What blew my mind is that the guy playing Schmidt this season is Todd from Wedding Crashers

New episode tonight:The episode will run 16 minutes past the hour tonight.

Damn, that's cool. Fargo really needs to be a longer series anyway.

 

[Saucycarpdog]

You know, despite living in the town that this is named after, I really need to catch back up with this series. Never have any time though.

 

[Daft_Cat]

Whoa.

No fucking way.

Yo gotdamn. Kid was ruthless. Was not expecting that.

An old- an old fashioned?

Great scene.

Quite the opening.

 

[IronRinn]

Even having seen it in the previews that scene was fantastic.

Poor, poor Ed.

 

[kris.]

So Uverse's player stopped right as he was getting in the shower. I miss anything big?

Just went to commercial.

Some more about her not going to the seminar. Ends with him saying "This is the first day of the rest of our lives" and she looks like that's not what she wants to hear.

 

[IronRinn]

Some early UFO action.

 

[Niraj]

Sonny is not terribly sharp lol

 

[Baroquemantic]

That magnificent beard though.

 

[kris.]

Please don't kill Nick Offerman. My heart wouldn't be able to take it.

 

[IronRinn]

Sonny is not terribly sharp lol

Don't fuck with Mad Dog.

 

[Niraj]

Don't fuck with Mad Dog.

lol, that was great

 

[Konka]

lol

 

[Baroquemantic]

Lol, this is great.

 

[IronRinn]

Lou ain't no fool.

Scene with Milligan and Dodd's daughter was something else. Hangover line was swiped from someone, wasn't it? Hunter S. Thompson?

 

[IronRinn]

All manner of ass shots in this episode.

 

[-griffy-]

Lot of exposed butt this episode.

Edit: lol

 

[Stoze]

Buttcrack count: 3

and we're only halfway done boys

 

[Niraj]

All manner of ass shots in this episode.

Ah geez

 

[Baroquemantic]

This woman is a gotdamn boss.

Edit: something's about to pop off

 

[-griffy-]

Taking lessons from Travis Bickle.

 

[kris.]

WOW

 

[Baroquemantic]

God I love this show/series.

 

[Niraj]

Wow, some really great scenes there. Jean Smart and Brad Garrett were both wonderful. Such a good show.

 

[Konka]

Lovin this episode.

 

[IronRinn]

I don't know. Something makes me think you shouldn't fuck with Jean Smart.

Edit: She and Garrett did great work in that scene.

 

[Baroquemantic]

Welp. It's all downhill from here.

 

[Konka]

Oh shit. The course is in Sioux Falls.

 

[-griffy-]

These two are screwed with or without the money for the shop, dontchaknow.

 

[IronRinn]

There's always one in Fargo. Hi Peggy.

 

[Baroquemantic]

Oh damn!

I'd say 'Fear and Trembling' is an accurate title for this episode.

 

[IronRinn]

Don't. Bullshit. Lou.

 

[kris.]

Patrick Wilson is so fucking great in this.
