Fargo Season 3 Episode 7 Review – ‘The Law of Inevitability’

by

Shaun Munro reviews the seventh episode of Fargo season 3… As Fargo’s third season enters its final stretch, it hit the ground running following Ray’s shocking demise last week, with Nikki promptly being arrested and Varga’s presumed frame-up attempt working perfectly. It’s now clear that Nikki is essentially the series’ de facto protagonist, or at the very least […]

Fargo Season 3 Episode 6 Review – ‘The Lord of No Mercy’

by

Shaun Munro reviews the sixth episode of Fargo season 3… The latter half of Fargo‘s third season hit the ground running this week, building on the previous barn-burner of an episode with perhaps its most shocking and suspenseful instalment yet. From the outset, Ray means business when it comes to avenging Yuri and Meemo’s brutal assault of Nikki, […]

Fargo Season 3 Episode 5 Review – ‘The House of Special Purpose’

by

Shaun Munro reviews the fifth episode of Fargo season 3… “The House of Special Purpose” marks the mid-way point of Fargo‘s third season, and in many ways feels like a transitory episode, nodding towards the potential dark ends down the road for many of these characters.

Fargo Season 3 Episode 3 Review – ‘The Law of Non-Contradiction’

by

Shaun Munro reviews the third episode of Fargo season 3… If the first two episodes of Fargo‘s third season leaned a little too eagerly on established formula, “The Law of Non-Contradiction” keenly throws it all out the window. This is easily the most distinctly singular episode from any of its three seasons so far, entirely ditching […]

Fargo Season 3 Episode 2 Review – ‘The Principle of Restricted Choice’

by

Shaun Munro reviews the second episode of Fargo season 3… If Fargo‘s season premiere left a prevailing feeling of deja vu, the follow-up moves a little further away from the familiar, even if the key beats are still distinctly Fargo, and this is very much the lethargic second episode the show has essentially made its signature […]

Fargo Season 3 Episode 1 Review – ‘The Law of Vacant Places’

by

Shaun Munro reviews the first episode of Fargo season 3… The painful 16-month wait since Fargo‘s second season concluded is finally over, and while not returning to screens with quite the same surging electricity of the two prior premieres, “The Law of Vacant Places” is nevertheless a rock solid introduction to Minnesota’s latest batch of loveable low-lives. The season […]
