After a hiatus of over three years, the fourth season of FARGO is airing on FX now!

quote:

The fourth season is set in 1950 in Kansas City and the story follows two crime syndicates as they vie for control. The cast is led by Chris Rock, who plays Loy Cannon, the head of a crime syndicate made up of black migrants fleeing the Jim Crow South who have a contentious relationship with the Kansas City mafia.

As well as Rock, we also have Jason Schwartzman as Josto Fadda, one of the heads of the Kansas City Mafia, Jessie Buckley as bizarro nurse Oraetta Mayflower, E'myri Crutchfield as Ethelrida Pearl Smutney, daughter of mixed race parents and Oraetta’s neighbour, Glynn Turman as Loy’s rigjt-hand man Doctor Senator, Ben Whishaw as Rabbi Milligan, an Irishman “traded” to the Italians as a child, Timothy Olyphant as Mormon marshal Dick “Deafy” Wickware, and a great many more (seriously, so many more, there’s so many goddamn characters this season).

Currently three episodes have aired out of a planned 11, and personally I am enjoying it! It’s definitely shaping up to be one of the lesser seasons but it still has the same fun dialogue/style, some excellent intriguing characters, and a good amount of the magic that made seasons 1 and 2 especially so great. Buckley especially is just fantastic.

Ok other people make posts now!!!!

I think it's probably weaker than the other seasons, at least form what I've seen so far, but the handjob scene is probably the funniest the series has ever been so it's a wash.

One of the reasons I hadn’t made this thread already is because I couldn’t think of a good thread title. Soon as that scene happened I knew I had one.

I will say that Jessie Buckley, who I was previously unfamiliar with before S4, is my new celebrity crush (:allears:)

The final scene of season 3 is one of the best single scenes in the whole show

This season had great performances, visuals, and individual scenes, but absolutely no structure or consistent overarching themes whatsoever. It literally is just “a bunch of things that happened”. It’s hard to call it actively bad when so many individual little things worked, but it didn’t cohere into a satisfactory whole at all. Definitely the weakest season so far

Watch i’m thinking of ending things for more Jesse Buckley greatness (and also greatness in general it’s the best movie of the year probably)

Definitely agree that Foley not even bothering to call JJL was dumb. Otherwise a great episode!
