I think I just got trolled hard by FX. I logged in on time for the broadcast on the top of the hour, but it was the last fifteen minutes of the episode.

>it's an Arby's product placement episode

Tried watching Fargo twice. First time 2 EPS, second time 5 EPS. Couldn't do it boys not for me

That episode fucking SUCKED

episode was well directed and had a good story, but some people will think it sucked because it doesn't connect to anything since she was wrong. or who knows, just wait for the rest you fucking faggots

This is why /tv/ has become so pleb. Idiots who need to be bombarded with new info from different directions instead of focusing on one story like an adult. It was a nice change of pace and these people act like they were robbed or something.

Loved the episode. I just hope they don't start pushing ufo and aliens down our throats too much. It might start feel like pandering soon. People loved it in S2, but there's no need to bring it up over and over again. Otherwise, another excellent season.

It was a lot different than I though it would be. Was expecting the whole episode to be about what happen in its last 5 minutes.

Still, I enjoyed it for what it was, and this singular story was a nice break between all these other storylines. It's themes were a bit on the nose but still interesting. Nice to Mac as well.

I'm hoping the next episode focuses on the brothers mostly.

This series is filmed really weirdly. Everything is filmed like it's in the 70s, when it's set in 2010.

>She's symbolising the disconnect between small town values and the big city, right?
The biggest recurring theme in Fargo is the idea that the times are changing, and how people react to this. Season 2 especially pushed this. You either adapt, or are crushed by the oncoming tide. The past can no more become the future than the future can become the past. It seems that she's going to be very much that character, someone 'stuck' in more traditional values, struggling to adapt to a changing world.

It should be noted that the show doesn't really seem to support that things actually change, or get worse at any rate. In Season 1 they talk about how simpler things were when they were kids, but then in Season 2 we see when they were kids, and shit was even worse. The dichotomy here is a very important part of the show. Mike Milligan talked about it with his revolution speech.

Of course

Same as the Coens I suppose. Their Jewish characters are often awful.

if only every episode was this good

>>82374674

Are the Coens anti-semitic jews? Or at least they mock their culture to some extent

>>82374727
No, they're just the same as everyone else who knows how to poke fun at themselves.

Just finished rewatching all of Season 2. A lot of moments that didn't effect me before got to me more than I expected. Peggy's breakdown after Ed dies, when she's completely incoherent and on the verge of sobbing, when Lou's holding her back. Or when Simone's begging for her life in front of Dodd. It felt a lot more brutal this time around, their desperation got to me.

What actually really impresses me is how much the fake out with Betsy dying in episode 9 still gets to me, even though I know she's still alive. It got me good on my first watch through, but even rewatching it, I still get emotional.

>>82374955
For me the part that got to me is where Lou talks about the pilot in Vietnam, and how a man has a duty to his family.

I think that's one of the things that S2 did best. The different families, and what it takes for a family to work. Lou and Betsy are doing a great job, but have the cancer eating away at it. Peggy and Ed are just incompatible but both trying to do things the best way they know how. Floyd is trying to hold everything together knowing that it's rotten to the core.

It's such a good series.

Reminder that they will never top Season 1, no matter how hard they try.

All we'll get will be kino-replicas

S2 is better though. In so many ways. Not least the two posts above.

>>82375094
S1 is kinda reddit tier
S2 is pure kino

>>82364803
I disagree, I thought it was the best episode of the new season so far, the first two were good and funny, but this felt more grounded. I liked the animated parts too.

>>82375180
Yeah, as much as I enjoyed how funny the last two were, I kind of missed the serious aspects that S2 had.

>>82367574

>>82370974
I missed it. what was it?

That was a cute episode, very Barton Fink-like (obviously).

It's telling how much better the show gets once Ewan McTerribleAtAccents is out, even though I like everyone else in that story. Carrie Coon is cute as fuck.

Why are people going "we already knew that"?

It was quite weird really, because although it was a neat little side story, it means that all the speculation goes away about the guy's death.

>>82375180
>>82375189
This. Fargo is really at its strongest when it's bizarre but very humanistic. This episode was that. You can't just be ridiculous, it doesn't create pathos.

I think the point was for Carrie Coon to learn that her current approach to police work (and with the Facebook talk, maybe her aversion to technology) is not going to help her get anywhere. Her head is stuck in the 70's, and so the only answers she finds are stuck in that time as well. She returns home to find the town doofus has cracked the case while she was off chasing leads from the 70's.

I think she's going to have some new insight to the case after having the revelation tonight that her current approach gets her nowhere, and maybe the "new chief" was a bit right about her after all, even if he was an insufferable prick about it.

It stands to reason that in the next week or two she'll pull the thread on the AC unit guy until it leads to Ray, and she's not a dummy so the Stussy connection is gonna get made real quick, probably causing things to escalate much further than they have up to now.

Also, Gloria's shirts are great.

>I can help

I think this episode might have been a riff on that part of 'Fargo' movie where Marge Gunderson meets that old school friend of hers and then later learns he lied about almost everything. It feels unconnected in the movie, but actually implants the idea in her head that Lundegaad lied to her.

Similarly this little misadventure might lead her to thinking that her father-in-law was killed simply for having the wrong name.

>>82373839
Officer Hunt was a bit of a caricature, but I guess that was the point of his existence.
I wonder where they'll take Gloria and her aversion to modern technology.

>>82376098
Yeah, this is exactly what it is, and also has her realize technology is pretty good for at least some things.

The only thing that annoyed me was the asshole cop talking about Facebook. He was too on the nose.

>>82376347
I don't know if there's an actual supernatural element coming here, but I think all the quantum Schrodinger shit this episode all relates to her. She's both there and not.

She's divorced and not divorced, she's chief but she's not, and when she's asked if Ennis was her father she answers "Step father, sort of", electronics don't know whether she's there or not.

So why did they steal her bag, just to smell her panties?

>tfx (You) are buggy for me and only show up 20% of the time
What's even the point in shitposting now?

>>82375771
This is a good concise take.

People complaining about the pointlessness of this episode, which is literally addressed by the main character in the story, are willfully missing the forest for the trees.

>>82377556
The autistic? Yes it is.

The way I see this episode is that the robot through out his whole journey despite always saying he could help, was never able to help anyone or anything, i.e. useless. But in the end, he had helped, simply by being an observer to all history. He might had been a useless box, but he was indeed useful in the end.
As for Gloria's trip to LA, she got to meet all these people and heard all this story but still got no closer to solving the mystery of her stepdad's death. It may all seems useless now, but it will be useful later, as was hinted by the fact that she brought the 'useless' box back with her, i.e. she didn't come back empty-handed, she now has something that will be useful later on.
I think this episode will function similar to how Mike Yanagita's story did in the movie, as things not related to the plot, but influence the character's thinking.

>>82379553
that's not really a bad santa reference though...

>>82375771
well .. she didn't really started any investigation at home, so if that was the point, changing her investigation methods and aversion to technology is too soon, she didn't get stucked with that case.

>>82379688
it's as much of a reference as pretty much anything else the show has done. call it a "nod" if it makes you more comfortable but don't tell me it wasn't deliberate.

>>82379657
>I think this episode will function similar to how Mike Yanagita's story did in the movie, as things not related to the plot, but influence the character's thinking.
remind me again how that scene mattered

>>82379768
It led to her realizing that people can be really, really, good at putting up front.

what does that even matter?

Bad Santa isn't even a coen brothers movie. Just because a show or movie has something, it doesn't mean it's an homage or nod or whatever to everything or anything that used it before it. If the santa that stole it jumped into a car with a black midget dressed as an elf, you might have a reference.

They were also executive producers on the movie and essentially it wouldn't exist without them.

It matters how tv shows are made because productions don't plan to inject a bunch of literal "bad santas" into a shoot unless it's been thought out by a large number of people, and for some purpose. If you are trying to tell me it's just a coincidence I will reiterate that you are a fucking rube.

>>82380244
It being deliberate doesn't make it any less cutesy distracting bullshit masking a vapid meaningless story.

>>82380244
http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2016/12/residents-try-to-derail-annual-meeting-of-drunk-santas.html

they're an actual thing. Writers take shit they think is funny or interesting and inject it into their shows. It's not necessarily a reference or a nod to some movie. So no, I don't think it's a nod to bad santa, nor a reference to it. They literally plucked something out of headlines and used it to add character.

>>82380270
I didn't say it was a good reference. I said it was a reference.

The eight episode of S2 is almost at that level, too.

>>82380838
is it really a coincidence though? I mean, kinda how she dropped something and that's how she spotted it, but that's the reason she was out there, to find out about him. She went out there for info, found out that he got scammed, almost killed someone and then moved and changed his name.

So do we actually know that the writer is the murdered old guy? There is an age discrepancy. I also found it interesting that at the end of the episode the writer picks up the reward but then puts it back down without putting it in the suitcase. Wasn't the reward the main thing connecting those characters?

>>82381588
I was actually surprised it wasn't Hertzfeldt

>>82381905
He's obviously not an American though. And his hand is fine.
I mean, with Hawley fucked up writing it's possible. But that would be entirely wrong character wise. Charlie was a good hearted guy who couldn't even kill the guy he believed was his uncle's murderer. Varga on the other hand, is a cold blooded calculating sociopath. Do the math.

>>82381685
>The guy in the flashbacks was in his 20s
because that was thaddeus mobley who took on the name of ennis. How could you miss this?

>>82382096
I know it would be fucking stupid, but after the "Hanzee = Tripoli" thing, I could picture Hawley writing how after finding out his entire family got massacred at Sioux Falls, Charile's heart darkened. He went elsewhere to rebuild his life from step one. And he hid his cerebral palsy by saying his way of talking was just a really cockney accent.

>>82382142
You're missing the point, the flashback were in the 70s which would make him almost 50 and he sure didn't look like 50.

>>82382019
write is what? mid twenties? in the 70s. 40 years later he's old. Age fits. And the newspaper article connected them.

>>82382180
people who get coked out live hard lives. Some people look like they're in their 70's by 50.

>>82382178
>And he hid his cerebral palsy by saying his way of talking was just a really cockney accent.
um...

>>82382356
50 in the flashbacks, not 50 in present. It was stated that he was 82 when he dies.

Season 3 takes place in 2010 when Ennis is 82. Flashbacks take place 40 years earlier, so Ennis would be 40. Mobley looked 25 at most for me.

anyone else think theyre pushing this millenial cell phone smartphone thing a bit too hard

ever since i heard hawley say season 3 would "tackle the smartphone era" i was worried theyd be too upfront about it and try to write the story around that theme instead of weaving it in here and there. this episode had two obvious shots of people on their smartphones which was the equivalent of "LOOK HERE, THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO ARE REALLY ABSORBED INTO THEIR SMARTPHONES!"

and the mac cop with the facebook thing

i don't know it seems a bit too on the nose for me

>>82383284
I think the idea is to set up that trope of TECHNOLOGY SUCKS LOOK AT THESE LOSERS including the antagonistic new chief, only to pull the rug from underneath it.

We already got that partially in this episode, where Gloria spends all episode uncovering a lot but not accomplishing much, and the idiot fat cop just running a fingerprint scan and finding the perpetrator.

Also, Gloria just doesn't seem in tune with technology at all, like the doors not reacting to her and her cell phone not getting her speech.
