So the electronics not working for her (automatic door, hand dryer) is that reference to the leftovers?
if not that plot point is an interesting coincidence.

 

[loganclaws]

Yeah gotta say this season is very slow and doesn't pack a punch like seasons 1 and 2... Very unfortunate.

 

[Dominican Power]

Varga is one quirky muthafucka. Dude is fucking bulimic.

 

[Dominican Power]

I heard someone mention Luverne.

A few takes from a panel discussion last week:
- Variety: ‘Fargo' Cast Talks Season 3 Challenges (and Fun) at FYC Event
- THR: 'Fargo' Stars Talk "Alternative Facts" and More Political Season 3
- IndieWire:
‘Fargo' and ‘The Leftovers' Collide as Damon Lindelof Interviews Noah Hawley, Ewan McGregor and Carrie Coon

[CloudWolf]

I was waiting for the payoff for the orchestra introduction in the beginning
😐

I was too psyched just to hear the Peter and the Wolf narration to be annoyed with the fact that it didn't really seem to go anywhere. I used to listen to my cassette tape with that performance piece every night as a kid.

 

[IronRinn]

Fargoooooooo.

 

[Niraj]

Uh oh

 

[Baroquemantic]

Wait, who was that in the video? Rich McGregor and who?

Edit: Oh, must be broke McGregor

 

[IronRinn]

Oh damn.

 

[-griffy-]

Second best proposal on an FX show in recent weeks.

 

[IronRinn]

For Pete's sake, I'm wearing a hooker wig!

[Niraj]

That has to be weird, even knowing the how of it

 

[IronRinn]

Wow.

 

[Baroquemantic]

Damn

 

[Niraj]

 

[Baroquemantic]

That's just fucked up. I hope these dudes get got in the worst way.

Edit: Damn, called him a cuck too.

 

[IronRinn]

Varga definitely has the opaque, intractable Fargo villain thing down.

 

[Niraj]

Damn, that's harsh.

 

[IronRinn]

Fornicating with our cookware.

 

[IronRinn]

Wheels within wheels.

 

[IggyChooChoo]

Is Emmett going to wind up making Ray the fall guy with Varga? He and the widow both want the company...

 

[Niraj]

That's a lot of fucks lol


"My mom" lolol

 

[Sadsic]

so much swearing for basic cable

 

[IronRinn]

My mom.

Loooool.

so much swearing for basic cable

Atlanta broke the ice for the f-word on FX.

 

[IronRinn]

Varga's big on the anti-Semitism, isn't he?

 

[-griffy-]

This guy from Legion.

 

[Baroquemantic]

This guy from Legion.

Ah, thought he looked familiar.

 

[Niraj]

Definitely in over his head

 

[IronRinn]

Of course you have fake books, Emmit. Come on now.

 

[Baroquemantic]

Well shit.

 

[Niraj]

Jesus

 

[IronRinn]

Fuck.

 

[Baroquemantic]

Man what the fuck

 

[IggyChooChoo]

Is that like that thing from the Grifters where you beat someone with a sack of oranges to cause internal damage?

 

[IronRinn]

They are really going all in on the evil this season.

 

[Niraj]

That was rough for sure. Lot of rough moments this episode.

 

[Sean C]

What exactly were the goons hoping to accomplish there?

 

[streetsahead123]

When this season started, I thought maybe it was gonna be the lightest out of all three, but jesus there was some heavy shit in this episode

[Einchy]

They went pretty easy on her all things considered. The sfx made it sound like they turned her face into pulp.

What exactly were the goons hoping to accomplish there?

Yeah, I'm not sure either.

If they had killed her, they would've ended a loose end with the brother but leaving her alive just causes more problems. Maybe they want to make the brother's feud so big that they kill one of them and end it all? Then again, they're the type to just do it right off the bat and not give a fuck.

 

[Intheflorsh]

I thought this episode was a big improvement, it gives me hope for the rest of the season. Things felt a lot more focused and less self indulgent. Really liked the scene between Emmit and Sy.

 

[Cels]

My mom.

 

[traveler]

Went through season 1 hoping "incompetent everyman" in Freeman would meet justice. In season 2, thought Peggy's insanity really dug them into a grave that poor Ed ended up jumping in.

Season 3 though, man, Emmit and Sy do not deserve this. At all. This is just sadism.

 

[Jb]

This is the first season of Fargo where I'm 100% hoping the bad guys lose.
Malvo was a charismatic sociopath, but Varga and his goons are just disgusting.

What were your thoughts on season 2s bad guys?

 

[shoelacer]

This season is not doing it for me so far.

 

[Human Trashcan]

It's a slow burn but this season's getting good. I think all the actors are just terrifically cast (and I have a huge celeb crush on Winstead tbh). Varga's just so disgusting in every way, even his awful teeth make more sense when you know he throws up after every meal.

The one thing I like least this season is the color palette. Why they decided to completely desaturate the entire thing is beyond me. This thing's grayer than Saving Private Ryan.
