Ewan McGregor was so horrifyingly bad in the previous season, my wife is questioning whether she would want to watch this one. Makes sense to me, but as I recall there were boobies in the last one so I'm in.
At least, it should be way better than the Disney rehash bullshit they're going to try to pull off based on Obi Wan. Ewan McGregor is a hack. [Reply]
The third season with Ewan McGregor playing two roles and they looked and acted so differently I thought that was brilliant. Although not as good as season one but better than the Jean Smart country mafia clan season two. Besides the friction and different lifestyles of the brothers, you had the crazy Russian guy trying to take over the brother's business. I guess because season one was so good with Martin Freeman and Billy Bob Thornton the others will fail to compare.
I had high hopes for season four but after 30 minutes I had to turn off, so plain awful. BTW it's filmed in Chicago, not KC, just like the other seasons are filmed in locations other than they are suppose to be.
It seems all the things that I liked about Fargo they have deleted from season four. No Minnesota accents, no big snow or freezing temps, the year is 1950 and the others were made in the 70's and 80's and related to us much better, better character development and music that was unique. Season one with Billy Bob Thornton and Martin Freedman sitting the ER waiting room have a casual conversation that turns to murder had us hooked right away.
Here's my biggest memory of Season 3, the bridge tournament. To use an Italian hit from the 70's that was basically unknown here in America as the background music was smart and made this scene even more odd. I looked up the artist and found the singer couldn't speak English so he made a song using words that sounded like English to him, I guess like when we try to speak in a foreign language that we don't know.
Here's is the original artist Adriano Celentano video of that song from the 70's. Since it's a lip sync I find that was even harder to perform since they are not even real words.
