The all new “true crime” case in Fargo’s latest chapter takes you back to 1979 in Sioux Falls, South Dakota and Luverne, Minnesota. “Lou Solverson” (Patrick Wilson), a young State Police Officer recently back from Vietnam, investigates a case involving a local crime gang, a major mob syndicate and a small town beautician “Peggy Blumquist” (Kirsten Dunst) along with her husband “Ed” (Jesse Plemons), the local butcher’s assistant. Helping Lou piece things together is his father-in-law, “Sheriff Hank Larsson” (Ted Danson). The investigation will lead them to a colorful cast of characters that includes “Karl Weathers” (Nick Offerman), the town lawyer of Luverne, Minnesota. A Korean War vet, Karl is a flowery drunk blessed with the gift of gab and the eloquence of a true con artist. Three-time Emmy® winner Brad Garrett will play “Joe Bulo,” the front man for the northern expansion of a Kansas City crime syndicate. The new face of corporate crime, Joe’s bringing a Walmart mentality to small town America. His number two is “Mike Milligan” (Bokeem Woodbine). Part enforcer, part detective, Mike is always smiling – but the joke is usually on you. Bulo and his crew have their sights set on the Gerhardt crime family in Fargo, currently led by matriarch “Floyd Gerhardt” (Jean Smart). With her husband at death’s door, Floyd takes over the family business, frustrating her eldest son, “Dodd Gerhardt” (Jeffrey Donovan). An impatient hothead with a cruel streak to match his ambitions, Dodd can’t wait for both his parents to die so he can take over and expand their business from kingdom to empire. “Bear Gerhardt” (Angus Sampson) is the middle son, an intimidatingly large man who, although inarticulate, is the most decent of his clan. “Rye Gerhardt” (Kieran Culkin), the youngest of the Gerhardt clan, views himself as a big shot, but in reality he’s just a small dog with a loud bark.



Emmy Award winning Executive Producers Noah Hawley (showrunner/writer), Joel & Ethan Coen, Warren Littlefield and John Cameron all return for the second installment. Fargo is produced by MGM Television and FX Productions, with MGM Television serving as the lead studio.

So, anybody else been loving the hell out of this show as much as i have been? I remember not liking the movie back when it first came to dvd back in the day, but i love the show. Maybe i need to rewatch the movie, since i'm older and have different tastes and appreciations now.

Definitely rewatch the movie. If you like the show I'm sure you'll enjoy the movie now.

Really digging the show though, its a lot better than I expected. I hope they do another one with different set of characters, if this one delivers all the way to the end.
 
Hard to dislike the movie since it's the Coen brothers best movie with Big Lebowski a close 2nd. I think as well you should rewatch it because as much as I enjoy this show it's nothing compared to the movie. A newly remastered cut came out on regular blu ray and Steelbook this past week.
 
missed episode 2! gggrrr! I was halfway through then I fell asleep (watched it really late and then it was gone from on demand...he was just translating the hand gestures....
 
saw a few episodes online on an app pretty good show i might buy the Blu-ray though along with Z Nation :D
I still need to pick it up myself actually... would've loved a steelbook for it! I look forward to hearing what you think anyway. :)
