The Coen Brothers' Best Picture Oscar nominee transforms into the season's most talked about TV debut. Fargo features a new true crime story and new characters...all chilled in the trademark dry wit, murderous mayhem and Minnesota nice of the original classic film. Oscar-winner Billy Bob Thornton stars as Lorne Malvo, a anipulative master criminal who changes the life of insurance salesman Lester Nygaard (Martin Freeman). Gus Grimly (Colin Hanks) and Molly Solverson (Allison Tolman) are the small-town police officers who join forces to uncover Lester's secrets and stop the relentlessly destructive Malvo.

Season 1 - Are they really making a series based on the film? Wow, this is gripping and enjoyed it more than the film; well there is a lot more of it to enjoy. :smiley:
Season 2 - This is a surprise can they really pull it off again? No. Too derivative and just doesn't have the same quality of writing and actors. Billy Bob was a very tough act to follow admittedly.

Has been on TV and was really (really really) good.
The second season was even better in my opinion.

Season 1 was amazing and the second one was also in it's own right but somewhat uncomparable to the first one considering it was a bit too different.
Anyway, seen it all in HD so going back to SD would be a bit 'eh'. Get the Blu-ray version if you can. :wink:

One of the best things on TV. Shame it's not bluray.
