Fargo Talks Fargo

In this episode, Bill and Charpie discuss various themes and moments from Episode 6 “The Tender Trap” of Fargo. They talk about the gender ambiguity in the season, Indira’s power and influence, the quid pro quo exchanges between characters, Lars’ despicable behavior, and Lorraine’s softening and job offer to Indira. They also touch on the significance of pearl onions and corned beef, as well as the technical difficulties they faced while watching the episode. The conversation concludes with a discussion about Danish’s satisfaction with Lorraine’s phone call.

Be cafeful when hunting tigers, you may end up in a postion you won’t like. Dot displays her ability to evade and escape, while Lorraine shows us how to get a deal done while dealing with doofus bankers. Danish and Gator can’t seem to get any respect. Roy and Lorraine have a chat about Dorothy/Nadine. And finally Dot seems to find an ally near the end of the show.

Goodness, Dot has herself running any which way but loose. In this episode of Fargo, The Tiger, we love to see how hard it is to cage a tiger (of any kind). Charpie thinks this was a Lorraine episode. Bill thinks it’s a  nice exposition on Dot, Lorraine, and Indira. Either way we welcome this as we plod our way through the story of debts and credits. What is really going with the story here, and what are we saying about how we view debt? Scoop up a wee bit of these early morsels on FX’s Fargo. Let us know what you think.

Even a few days later, we struggle with Insolubilia, both pronoucing it and fully grasping it. We dive into a fun house of mirrors and lies on this episode of FX’s Fargo. We continue to talk about debt, religion, and how many characters are crafting their own story. Ole’s just hungry for pancakes.

We skip over all the spooky scary attempted kidnap stuff for some commentary about one phrase. After that, it’s on to pancakes and our understanding or the lack thereof about the Liar Paradox. We even sneak in smidge of chat about actual elbow macaroni hotdish. This is why we do it folks. Dig into a quick take on Insolubilia on FX’s Fargo season 5, episode 4. Go Tigers!

In The Paradox of Intermediate Transactions, we get all sorts of fun information. Roy’s got some work to do for Oden to try get life back to 1776, Ole takes us on a journey back to 1522 (suck it 1776), and everyone seems to find out Witt and Olmstead are not giving up the thread of this case. Snuggle up with some sin bread or a page from a bible… and let’s dine on this episode of Fargo.

Oooo la la, after we learn a bit more about Roy we dig into a heaping spoonful of Ole backstory. Is it Ole or Bryn? Or is it both? Either way It’s his home now. Dot is saddened by the mandatory waiting period. It’s the witching hour, so eat your sins.

Things are starting to heat up in 2019 on Fargo. On “Trials and Tribulations” we find a lot out about what kind of man Roy Tillman is and is not. The continued story of finding out that Dot is not to be messed with and maybe for good reason. She’s more than meets they eye. Just when the drum conspiracy theory starts, Charpie takes us on a Star Wars adventure. All this and more on Fargo Talks Fargo.

Will this theories prove true? Only way to find out is tune in.

Welcome back to Fargo friends! We’re back for another season and the Fargo universe is rolling into 2019. Since this is aired right before Thanksgiving and FX gave us a double-header, we’ve combined  into one super duper hot dish. Things are looking grim for Ole and his partner when they attempt to kidnap worthy adversary, Dot. She’s not a housewife, she’s a tiger. Erstwhile, Roy…in his moist repose…is pulling thread to get Dot back. I guess this shows attending a school board meeting is bad news, ya?
