Landry Clark is lucky as fuck, he gonna be a bad dude by the end of this if he keeps killin dudes.

I like the Indian guy. He seems cool. Wish he would have killed both of the Kitchen Brothers, I don't like them.

Dodd is a fuck up, doesn't seem old enough to have a daughter that old, but whatever. Dodd will overreach, but his brother is a big oaf too.

Mike Milligan cracks me up.

I really like the way the filmed that first scene. The aerial view was cool.

Kirsten Dunst finally proved to not be a piece of shit, but it was too late.

The Minnesota Accents continue to crack me the fuck up.

How many episodes deep is season 2? I've been slacking on this show this year and last year was GOAT status.

It's 5 episodes in. which means we're halfway through the season as there are a total of 10. and if you thought season 1 was excellent, then imo youll like season 2 as well. as far as professional critics are concerned, the reviews of this season trump the first. it has a 96 overall rating on metacritic compared to an 85 for the first. now when it comes to viewers, the opinion is more mixed. ive seen many who, like you, thought season 1 was exceptional. but they dont seem to like this season as much. i think what may be influencing that opinion the most is the fact of there not being any character to the caliber of malvo or lester. and to an extent, this is true. however ill argue that there are more memorable characters this season than there were the last. because outside of the aforementioned, the rest of the supporting cast was average to below average. thats not the case this season. strong performances throughout. and also the writing and directing is better, and the sprawling narrative is larger in scope. id suggest you watch and catch up on it now. it truly is the best show on tv.

This show is all around Great. I just watched all 5 episodes over the last 2 evening & this has been excellent so far even better than the first
 
Might be the best show on tv. Got around to watching season 1 as Im watching season 2. S1 was good, but S2 is blowing it out of the water.

When in comes to great characters, acting, dialogue and little to no useless scenes, this is the closest show I have seen to The Wire.

Really?

I think this is a good show, but there is BB, BE first series of True Detective might be better than this.

In regards to breaking bad since it has had a longer run and more seasons, if we're judging it collectively as a whole i can definitely see the argument in favor of it there. but since fargo is only 2 seasons in with the 2nd not even being finished yet. if we're judging breaking bad at the point of where fargo is currently, it falls short. BB imo didnt start getting exceptionally good(and certainly not as good as fargo is now) until the 3rd season

Oh I thought he meant Action Jackson himself not Nick Offerman's character lmao.
 
Yea nick Offerman crushed his role. The standoff with the Gerhardts and his exchanges with Sonny were hilarious. I like how peggy finally told the sheriff her motives. as to why she kept all of the magazines in the basement and was so adamant about going to the seminar in Sioux Falls (which is also where lou said the infamous massacre will take place)

lol not at all. that info was readily available to the viewer if they saw season 1. but since your asking me those questions, im assuming u didnt so im going to put everything ill say next in a spoiler for you and anyone else who is watching that didnt see the 1st season.

basically the sioux falls massacre was first referenced back during the episode of "a fox a rabbit and a cabbage" in season 1. creator noah hawley says this was deliberate too. but since season 1 took place in the present times as season 2 is meant to be a prequel of that, it was featuring an older lou solverson. you also asked me who lou was. well lou is the detective that came home from vietnam. he was also the one who went to fargo to get more details about the judge's murder. his wife is betsy and his daughter is molly. molly also played a key role in the 1st season. but i digress. going to back the sioux falls massacre, it was mentioned during the scene of when a menacing character by the name of malvo sat down with lou at his diner and they started exchanging stories. thats when lou brought up the sioux falls massacre. it occured in 1979, which is the same year this season takes place, and he described it as "horrifying" with bodies that couldve stacked to the 2nd floor of a building. peggy's seminar is also at that location. so one can deduce that nothing good will come from any of that

Appreciate the elaboration, I saw season 1 but I forgot some of the names and refrences...I'm gonna go back and watch that episode from season 1 just to hear that refrence....I wonder what kind of role these aliens are gonna play in this season..I liked how they ended ep 2 with that rod serling twilight zone narration...

I think the mom of the gearhart family is my favorite character..hope she still alive and has something in stored for dodd and his partner..that would be a nice twist.

 
That's crazy this whole time lou and his family are the same character's from season 1...im late...nice drop ounce..I know it was common knowledge but I was clueless..
