Koray Savas 2,251 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 I was liking it at first but the longer it went and the more characters that were introduced, I was loosing interest.It might just be the weird pacing and structure of a 90 minute episode. It didn't really build up to anything.And that mother's overacting. Oof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nightscape94 965 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Unfortunately Hulu acquired the exclusive rights for Fargo in the US, and I'm not going to purchase yet another streaming service for one show. I might wait until season 2 is out and then do a free trial so I can binge both seasons.I could mess around with my Netflix VPN so I could watch it but I'm paranoid about trying it.

Quintus 5,399 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Fargo season 2 is shaping up pretty nicely judging by the first epi. Good stuff but ruined somewhat by the absolutely horrible placement of a commercial break right before the very last scene. WTF is this American shit doing happening on UK TV?? Netflix from now on in.And Kirsten Dunst has gotten 'old' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see many opportunities to mess up the main storyline with the Gilmores, but with the Palladinos involved, I remain hopeful.

Quintus 5,399 Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 It's all over the place for much of its first 3 seasons but when it's good it's brilliant. Then later they've started tightening things up and everything became consistently better, generally. I love that show these days and I'm glad I stuck with it.

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Finished Season 1 of Twin Peaks.Still unsure how I feel about this show. Agent Cooper is the obvious highlight, but I don't find myself caring for any of the other characters, and the way the mystery is unfolding is quite boring. I enjoy the quirky black humor of the plot and setting, but the Coens perfected this with Fargo. Makes the show seem redundant, though I know it came first. For an 8 episode season, it was fine. My instinct is that it can't hold up for another 22 episodes.I recall mostly everyone here saying it becomes unwatchable at a point but redeems itself with the ending. Should I even bother?

Jay 37,372 Posted October 22, 2015 Author Share Posted October 22, 2015 Yes, you should bother. The Laura Palmer mystery gets wrapped up in another I dunno, 8 or 9 episodes, then the show gets awful for a little bit, but then it ends strong again. Worth your time. Some things improved with the second season, like there's a lot more new music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,372 Posted October 23, 2015 Author Share Posted October 23, 2015 Exactly!David Lynch directs the double length season premiere, and other than its slow pace, it's sets up the tone and feel the rest of the reason will have for the most part.

crocodile 8,018 Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 My rewatch of The Wire on Blu-ray continues. Finished season 2. It's much slower than season one and doesn't really get going till episode 6 but all the build up is worth it. I like that this season has its own unique feel, quite unlike anything we've seen in other seasons.Three episodes into season 3 now. This thing is still addictive. But in a very different way than, say, Breaking Bad.Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
