Fargo: The Principle of Restricted Choice (2017)
Season 3, Episode 2
7/10
Who's the A** Now?
27 April 2017
Last week Fargo put together quite the premiere episode. Setting up each individual storyline enough to where we can potentially piece some of the puzzle together. How much of this season will follow along the same path that the first two did? I'm not sure, but I can't wait to see how it unfolds. With that said, the second episode was a slower and more methodical approach than last week. No one died, for one. But there also wasn't a ton of movement on Gloria's investigation into her step-father's murder, and the Stussy brothers shared the same conflict as they did last week. The episode felt more like the aftermath of last week's debacle than a new story on its own. Nonetheless, it will always be entertaining to me to watch Ewan McGregor navigate acting against himself with two completely different characters like Emit and Ray. If nothing else, this season will no doubt distinguish itself by providing an entirely different family dynamic than we have had the past two seasons. Speaking of the past seasons, we got our first glimpse into who are most certainly the new crime fighting duo of Yuri and Meemo. In the movie & first two seasons we've had the pleasure of watching two strange humans delight our screens with humor and crime, and I think these two are no different. Hopefully, these are only a few of more casting additions to this already astonishingly good cast. In all, I wasn't overly thrilled with this outing, but it's still better than 70% of everything else on television.
