Yo, u were right.
I made a halfwitted judgement on a show I hadn't seen in it's entirety until last night... I was 4 eps in on S2 of Fargo, then admittingly gave up on it. So for me to suggest to @Fart that he should def look at S1 first is a little outlandish after actually finishing S2. I don't really know what pushed me away from continuing to watch during the late summer... but I was mad busy w/ work & other personal matters. I did the same thing w/ True Detective S2, tho I don't think for a second it's even close comparing the 2 shows in their second seasons. U were right my guy... Fargo's sophomore season is by far the single greatest season of any television series I've ever watched... I binged the whole thing the past cpl days & went thru a qtr of loud dolo in the process. Lol. It was so awesome man... I mean, my interest was piqued during summer while it was running on FX, just based off what I saw the year before... but I just didn't have the time to really stay w/ it. Fuck I'm glad I watched this now.. & about to pop in S1 just BECAUSE. U really have to see S2 to appreciate S1.... & u KIND OF have to see S1 to appreciate S2. This thing stands alone. Better than any single season of TWD, The Wire, BB, SOA, AHS, GOT, or really any other series for that matter. The intri***ies & perfect capturing of the time period are alone jizzworthy... but the acting from everyone is on a whole nother level real fuckin shit. I'm glad ur opinion the other day prompted me to stream this best show ever. Thanks brah. 1 |

Glad to hear it man. So many good characters in that show. Just ridiculously high quality.
Side note; apparently Hanzi is in Season 1 as the mob boss of Fargo. There's an article on it on Hitfix. On my phone or I'd link it. There's just so much attention to detail. Can't wait for season 3.

Watched season 1. Was good.
Highly skeptical of "the single best season of any television series ever" or however u worded it tho lol. (In regards to season 2) Even having mentioned true detective.....u know that season 1 was leagues beyond season 1 of fargo But admittedly I haven't watched season 2 yet. Will return. I will say ahs season 5 so far is top tier. Narcos was top tier. New Peter pan movie........not as good as hook....Hugh jack da god doe Christmas with the kranks. Stellar performance turned in by Tim allen. Just brilliant. Dan akroyd...u can't have frosty u fucking dickhead. Fuck off. Honey...w Jessica alba....the way she try to act ghetto and hard gave me the strangest cringe boner I've had in ages. Mikai Phifer looks way different then his mom michelle. Also crutchie from newsies is a rap music video mogul. Really bottom of the barrel movie. Watched whole thing w half chub and full anxiety. |

U can be skeptical, that's cool.. it's only my opinion tho. & Fargo S1 was not better than TD S1... I wasn't saying that at all. Fargo's 1st season is def up there in the top tier for sure tho.
Also agree Narcos is top tier as well. That was a poor attempt at the end or ur post btw bro. Lol ur better than that. |

It was an ESPN show about NFL players. The NFL got furious with them for it.

S2 is easily the best on TV, but it can't be the best single season since the finale entirely relies on s1

Yes it was.
I thought Playmaker was too over the top. Trolled the shit out of the NFL though.

ESPN definitely produced Playmakers.
Then the NFL got a PR team. Hence the end of the ambulance in Madden footballm. Hell, the NCAA killed the personality stuff from the games because PR.

I thought Ray Donovan was good.
Didn't like Gotham tho. I tried watching it several times and it just doesn't do it for me. Haven't watched Fargo either, but I guess now imma have to just to see if it lives up to the hype. |
