Second one was pretty good! Vargas' two henchman aren't bad so far. I loved Sy vs Ray
Enjoyed the third episode more. It was shot beautifully at times. Cart the actor you like was the kid from Skull Island too! Thought I recognized him, he was good here. Shea Whigham also from Skull Island is the new Chief and he's always good, seems like he'll be a dick. I like Gloria's partner enough
Agreed that it was a weird break from the action but it all worked for me. Also loved seeing Ray Wise and Rob McElhenney show up (he was such a prick in the best way)
I'm digging it all so far but waiting for some classic Fargo. I think it's building though. Still feels like a lot of pieces being moved into place for the main meat of the story |

Good one! Shit is starting to fall into place more now. The connection between Enis and the Stussy bros was finally made, good timing for it
Loved the opening with each character having a musical piece attached |

Sy is great. The cup scene was nasty and the Nikki whipping scene was brutal,
Sy's reaction was perfect
I love the lovey dovey theme that plays during Ray/Nikki scenes |

Damn
Really wish I wasn't spoiled on Ray's death. I'm so mad I was, it'd have been pretty surprising. But it was still surprising by like...how quick it was? It's hard for me to judge it, I read an article that said "Emmit kills Ray!" basically, so I was expecting something totally different. This felt so out of the blue
I consider Ray to be the main character this season so him dying six episodes in is really surprising. He was such a good typical bumbling Fargo loser but he was treated way more sympathetically than Jerry from the movie or Lester. I was rooting for a happy ending from him but I've been expecting Nikki to betray him and cut him loose at some point, wasn't expecting this |

oh man, so many impressions, more on that later just one thing right now:
last episode had INSANELY brilliant editing and cinematography....just WOW!
also, lel the chief... | "There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. Some kind of high powered mutant never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die."

That was a great one. The Chief is hilarious and such a moron but I hope he redeems himself and isn't sorta just a one-note dummy the whole season
Loved the scene between Gloria's partner and Yuri. That was like a classic Fargo scene. Reminded me of Gus pulling over Malvo in S1 and Malvo telling him to just leave. They were maybe a little too similar but it still worked really well
I feel bad for Sy. He's been way more sympathetic lately, the scene of him breaking down was sad. Lol'd at idiot Emmit walking up to the police officer in the restaurant and just immediately saying "I've been here since 6!!"
MR. WRENCH! That was unexpected. I wonder if that's it for him or if he's brought back into play somehow..I'm just not sure how |

Finally starting to catch back up on this. It's getting pretty good now, although I think the quality is still lagging behind the first 2 seasons
|
This villain has really grown on me, everything about him is so slimy. He's really easy to hate
That ending was BRUTAL! Holy shit. I'm glad she's not dead tho, I think she's the strongest protagonist this season has going for it right now. Not sure what's gonna happen though cuz based on that ending in the tub it looked like she'd have a shitload of internal bleeding. So I have a feeling it's gonna be more about Ray taking revenge (maybe teaming up with Emmitt/Sy even?) for now |

oh men

After all the shit Nikki's been through this can't be the end for her right??? Maybe Wrench wakes up and takes on this new thug. That'd be kinda cool. tbh I feel like the only rootable people (now that Ray's gone) at this point are Nikki and Gloria so I'm hoping they both make it to the end
The restaurant scene was hilarious/hard to watch. They had all the pieces for a good alibi laid out and he just blurts them all out at once |

What a weird episode. Gotta say the Ray Wise cameo didn't really work for me, they've done left-field shit before with the UFO but for some reason that sat better than this all-knowing deity showing up
I did love everything about Nikki's portion before that though, that chase sequence was intense. So glad that she and Wrench both escaped alive. That beheading scene was super satisfying. Too bad if Yuri's dead though (I think it's safe to assume, but you never know), he's a way more interesting/intimidating henchman than Meemo
FINALLY Emmitt grows a backbone. I'm guessing it was Nikki that was planting all of that shit to provoke his guilt? |

"30 years I'd been killing him. That's just when he fell."
"The problem isn't that there is evil in the world. It's that there is good, or else no one would care."
Varga's been a great villain, definitely deserving of joining the rest of the show's pantheon. I think I'd go Malvo > Varga > Milligan > Hanzee
As much as I liked Nikki/Wrench gaining the upper hand here, I kinda wish they would've saved that happening for the finale. Kinda makes Varga/Meemo feel a little bit less threatening |

This one was ridiculously good. I loved every second of it
The first half hour was top tier Fargo. The chase through the woods was beautifully lit and crazy intense. Loved the beheading scene and like Cart I'll be sad if that's the end of Yuri. Gloria said later that Sy's poisoning was like the russian's I think??? Did I mishear that? Did he get poisoned by that vodka or..something? I'm confused there. The camera panning to Ray Wise shocked the hell out of me. Also Wrench was fucking great this episode, I thought he was gonna take an arrow to the head at any second but I'm so glad he didn't, biggest surprise of the episode tbh
NOT SY!!! That made me so sad. Maybe it's just because it's been a few weeks since I've watched an episode/seen him but that just felt...abrupt. Especially since he's probably dead? Varga said he'd die from it so I imagine he knows that he will. That sux. The shot of him waving up at Emmit and Emmit just closing the curtain was so sad
Another time drop, that one also shocked me. Lots of surprises this one
YAY EMMIT! I was so glad when he opened his hand and revealed the pills |
