The fourth episode felt like the calm before a very, very violent storm.November 03, 2015
If there's one thing you can say about Fargo, it's that the show never lets the plot drag! Fargo Season 2 Episode 4 made serious moves in terms of forwarding the plot and deepening existing characters.November 03, 2015
The episode hums with the tension of a powder keg about to go off, so much so that it's difficult to imagine a sweeter agony than this moment before the Gerhardts and Kansas City go to war and the other characters start becoming collateral damage.November 03, 2015
There's an effort to give every character his or her dignity that helps to invest all their behavior with greater resonance.November 03, 2015
We almost expect [Otto] to get up out of his chair and whack every last one of them, physical impossibilites be damned. And he just might, but until then, he remains a quiet force to be reckoned with.November 03, 2015
It's appropriate... that so much of the fourth episode of Fargo's second season is suffused with resignation and to the inevitability of the future.November 03, 2015
Despite this being one of the darker episodes, it was also one of my favorites. It progresses the story along nicely while forcing me to develop sympathy for every character, even stinkin' Dodd.November 03, 2015
Fargo brought together some of its key storylines, but prioritized the ways they affect its characters over ways they the affect its plot for fantastic results.November 04, 2015
"Fear and Trembling," this week's episode, is as gripping an installment as any so far is a testament to how well the stuff that's working is actually working, because not all of it is.November 03, 2015
With every episode, we begin to see more emotional overlap in stories that are connected but haven't collided at full speed yet. But this is Fargo. The crash is coming.
