Discuss Fargo

In a new interview with THR, FX Networks CEO John Landgraf spoke about all things FX related including the possibly of Fargo ending after this season. Here is what Landgraf had to say about Fargo’s future:

“There may never be another Fargo. Unless Noah has an idea for Fargo that he thinks he can make as good as the prior three. I think once people get to the end of this [season] they will find that it is thematically different. It’s really about the moment we live in now.”

"“It took 15 months to get Season 2 off the ground, and 18 months to get Season 3 on the air. I have to turn my attention to the second season of Legion and a film potentially the winter after next. We’re looking at three years from now,” the EP about a rough timeline for a Fargo Season 4."

FX and the Coen Brothers should replace show runner Noah Hawley with someone else who actually will do the job. I found Hawley's "let the viewer decide ending" to be a lazy non-ending. The Fargo movie and the first two seasons did not end that way. Fire him and get someone else to run it.

I found the 10-episode Season 3 to be the weakest. Don't expect me to watch one or two or three other TV series for references to what is going on, you lazy hack. The Peter and The Wolf episode was horrid, as the music was dropped almost immediately, and never came up gain. Too many loose ends from beginning to end. I'm not interested in reading Hawley's drug-induced mind. Dump him.

I personally really enjoyed season 3, and Noah Hawley would be my #1 choice to continue the series. However, I would be open to a new headwriter taking over if he/she had the right vision. I'm not sure if he would do it, but I think it would be interesting to see what David Lynch could do with a season of Fargo.

Peter Gould, one of the writers behind Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul would be perfect for the job. In BCS the atmosphere reminds me a lot of Fargo and the constant feeling that there's a dark cloud hanging over everyone.

Well, they finally aired another season, but I gave up on it fairly early. It just didn't do it for me, I guess. Maybe I'm just getting tired of all the gratuitous violence.

I think season 4 was definitely the weakest season so far. It really wasn’t bad. It had its moments. The violence doesn’t really effect me either way. I just think the quality of writing and story telling wasn’t quiet up to par with the first 3 seasons. They didn’t really tackle anything new and didn’t do the old stuff as well as in the past. I think season 5 should be the last season. 5 seasons is a good run.

I think each series has got progressively worse. Series 4 was poor in my opinion, a bunch of tedioius monologues by windbags, undiverting characters and some toe curlingly bad direction/acting from the Italian brother from the old country.
