As a contrast to the season premier last week, this episode was more of a slow burn. but it was still good. theyre pretty much positioning the pieces that will undoubtedly intersect later on. like with rye. both the Gerhardt brothers and the crime syndicate from Kansas city are looking for him for different reasons. I'm sure they will cross paths in their journey

The scene when Ed was covering up his tracks by cleaning up every trace of blood reminds me of a particular scene in blood simple (coens fans know which one I'm alluding to). also the meat grinder is somewhat a parallel to the wood chipper in the film

Also, I wonder if the UFO will play a larger role in upcoming episodes? after research, I found out that the theme of the closing song is about an alien invasion. and historically there was also a sighting of a UFO in Minnesota during 1979 which is the same time the show takes place

i think bokeem woodbine's character has the potential of being this season's equivalent of malvo. dude is menacing and unsettling at times
 
you niggas some clowns this shit is flames breh my indian niggas finna eat bird shit and locate bros corpse at the meat shop

watch them niggas serve ground edomite to them sea jews
 
2nd ep was slower,but not bad at all

Bokeem giving off a Sam Jack/Pulp Fiction vibe.I want to see how he gets down w/ the G shit.

The oldest son is the weak link and will probably sale his mother out.I like his mother's character.I think she ruthless and we haven't seen it yet.

Besides pride,doesn't sound like a bad deal to work w/ the KC mob.

So yeah Dunst is a bugged out character.She knows how to use her husband.

Crazy how the cop's wife found that strap.She's a rider.I see where Molly gets it from.

I still need more midwest accents.

That was tense when the cop and KC gangsters were pulled over.

It was also tense when the cop came to the butcher shop.

LOL this ep makes me never want to eat ground beef or ground anything.reminded me of the famous Fargo film wood chipper scene.

The oldest son is already scheming on over throwing his mother.She told his ass to just chill.he's gonna get a bunch of ppl killed.

yo, ol gal was fast to change the story in the hairdresser shop. good ass thinkin

Yea she was sharp and on point for doing that. kirsten dunst has delivered the most surprising performance thus far. i thought her delivery and acting would seem forced and contrived this season but she seem to be doing fine and naturally rolling with the punches

it seems lou solverson doesnt back down from anything. he has that tenacious attitude. now i see where molly gets it from

dodd is certainly a menacing figure. as if the abuse of his daughter didnt give the viewer a hint, the way he carelessly flaunts around his brute force will

woodbine crushed mike milligan's role again this episode. dude has been the highlight of the series for me so far

great episode. im very interested to see where this goes next. because both milligan's crew and lou are looking for the typewriter shop owner. hoping he can lead them to rye. but the ironic part is that both are now dead. so where or what will it lead them to?

shit got real this episode. now we're getting somewhere. alot of plot advancements took place

the tone of this episode was a bit melancholic. as we can probably assume many of these characters will see their demise. esp. lou's wife. the exchange with the doctor about her drug potentially being a placebo highlights the dark humor that's scattered throughout the show

the scene with Floyd and bulo was cool too. you can tell she is the more pragmatic and decisive member of the family. seems like she would resort to bloodshed as a last resort and would rather keep peace by splitting the territory with the Kansas city mob. but I think dodd fucked all of that up by strong arming one of bulo's men earlier.

I like the twist when we find milligan is putting the pound game on dodd's daughter. whats even more hilarious is she could've chose anyone in that virtually white town to help her catch a nut. but she decided to go with a darker shade. and no one should be surprised. white bitches always had a fixation and fetish for niggas. I'm curious tho to see whose side she'll ultimately take when the war jumps off

I'm really starting to question whether peggy is really in love with ed or not. it seems everything she does ultimately fucks him over. first she inadvertently murders a guy, then has him clean up every trace of evidence. then she takes the money he clearly told her he was going to use as an investment towards the shop, and uses it to go to some scam seminar. then when lou pieces everything together to get them to confess so he can help them. as ed was about to do just that she cut him off. but the fucked up part is ed seems to really love her. she, on the other hand, only appears to be acting in her own self-interest. i can already predict that she will ultimately be his downfall

this show outdoes itself with every episode. the writing, the acting, the directing, the cinematography, and the music choices are all top notch. this is hands down the best show on tv right now

Fargo is great.. its so rich and layered damn i almost felt story for the evil fuck.. i like how they set that whole moment up..(When the mother was giving dude some TLC) Alot of these characters are complex characters..

-Its funny as fuck to me how Bokeem talks like Dave Chappelle

-The Matriarch of the fam reminds me of Judge Judy/Estelle Getty i bet that was purposeful

-Kirsten is dynamite shes being suckered by her boss.. i bet its some Jim Jones shit

 
im fairly surprised by kirsten dunst performance. i thought she would be the weak link in the cast but she's been one of the standouts thus far
 
Dodd's daughter is treacherous...nonchalant about being scandalous wit no remorse...definitely has daddy issues or maybe that's just the kind of person she is...talk about 'sleeping with the enemy'..smh

Really like the way they build tension in this show,it's real old school..glad they kept those elements alive from the first season.....that sit down was a good scene...haven't been disappointed with a ep from this season yet...nice work...

Holy shit. that might've been the best episode ive seen in the series thus far since buridan's ass in season 1. every scene carried tension enough to keep me on the edge of my seat

bruce Campbell nailed the Reagan role. had him down to the mannerisms and the definitive gaffes

hanzee might be the strongest parallel we have to malvo this season. even surpassing milligan

dodd's daughter is stuck in a difficult situation. its like no matter who she betrays, she'll likely face consequences because of it

so peggy might not be as self-centered as I thought. that was an honorable thing she tried to do. although the events that ensued in a dramatically ironic fashion made rendered it virtually irrelevant

This show is propelling itself to be mentioned along the greats . its like now I'm at a point where im trying to find at least one quibble about this show or something I dislike, but every time I do so, I struggle to. its crazy how this show continues topping itself every week. and by the looks of the preview for the next episode, its going to continue on that trajectory to excellence
