FTA-TV Fargo

[ComicSansHumour]

Based on the film and produced by the genius Coen brothers. Looks like it'll be well worth checking out.
SBS has picked up the broadcasting rights for Australia but I know most of you sneaky bastards will be dipping in before it gets here.

The movie's one of my favourites (probably my favourite Coen or tied with The Hudsucker Proxy), the trailer looks great, the cast is excellent. I was skeptical as hell when they first announced it, but now I can't wait.

 

[DEVO]

OMG!!! they are making it into a TV show. I don't know what to make of this, Fargo is one of my all-time favourite films.

I'm starting to feel a bit sceptical about all this.
The creator of the series doesn't have much of a record. Then again the brothers Coen are on board with the script so it can't be the worst thing ever.

A review. A few spoilers.

I had completely forgotten they were doing this. And Martin Freeman's in it? *, it should great, then.

'The next Breaking Bad' - no pressure. Fargo is in my favourites collection so I suggest the don't * this up

& BBT - I'm there.


Martin Freeman stars with Billy Bob Thornton in TV remake of Fargo that critics are tipping to be the next Breaking Bad

Also on hand in supporting roles are Colin Hanks, Bob Odenkirk, Oliver Platt, Kate Walsh, Keith Carradine, Adam Goldberg, Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele.

They've rolled out the big guns

I was just watching Dazed and Confused and I wondered if I would ever see Adam Goldberg ever again.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

One of my favourite movies of all time, will definitely check this out.

 

[Soups]

Billy bob is seriously the man.

 

[mandy]

Good first episode.

 

[ComicSansHumour]

Good first episode.

Indeed. Took its time and probably went a bit long but a very solid start. Billy Bob what a beast. Pissing in the car haha. His character reminds me a bit of the joker. Just going around stirring s**t up. That scene with Colin Hanks!

i loved the first ep. 2nd best new show of the year after True Detective. my only thing is i dont know if they can keep it up for a full season. but i hope they do. not enough shows with the same feel that are worth watching.

 

[Warsaw]

Man I was totally hooked. It played out like a movie to me, and if that was the only hour we had I'd be more than satisfied. Can't wait for the next episode.

 

[Catfish Alley]

Really enjoyed it. Think it could be a winner and I'll keep watching.

Filmed in Calgary apparently. All that snow is a nice reminder of why I convinced my Albertan wife to move to Vancouver

 

[rumply]

Hooked

Straight off the back of True Detective, seems like a bonus.

 

[He_Beast]

Yeah the first one was great.

 

[Marlowe]

Billy Bob is good. The show is a definite win.

 

[Cruyff14]

Good show. I like it.

 

[Edd1e]

Very impressive pilot!
Strong cast.

 

[Percel]

So Ive never seen the movie, and I have both ep 1 and he movie, what to do?

Advice needed

 

[Cruyff14]

Watch the movie first.

 

[djrossie16]

Brilliant first episode really impressed. Feel like watching the movie again.

they are getting better in their age, and were phenomenal to begin with. But now they have something to say.
