The cast was great in general, I don't think I can find a single weak character there.
As for season 2 - give it a chance. It has a slightly different tempo, I almost quit watching it at one point... but I didn't and I'm glad I didn't.
Generally not as good as season1, which is imho the best tv series I've seen, ever, but close. Kirsten Dunst, who up until Fs2 I hated with a passion and considered a really bad actress (for being the worst choice for Mary Jane Watson ever...yeah..) proved me wrong here.

What bugs me about Fargo though .. the tv series is so good, it spoils the movie. I'm one of those people that somehow missed the movie when it came out, I only saw it after watching both seasons of the tv series.. and it seemed like a weaker copy, an exercise, an early sketch of what it will eventually become in the tv series. In fact, it seemed so .. flawed ? That I had to force myself to watch it, despite great directing, writing and acting.

New show called Haven't You Heard? I'm Sakamoto. It's pretty funny.

Fargo s1 was had more character to it, it was so mysterious and quarky in my opinion.
But Fargo s2 had me really on the edge of my seat and i wanted to keep watching to it.
Great show!

That's interesting, I have a couple of buddies in the same boat, they've finished the TV series but haven't seen the original movie. I urged both of them to watch it but after hearing your thoughts on it I won't be surprised if they feel the same way, I enjoyed the TV series more than the movie as well. However, while I love both seasons, I'm a sucker for season 2. Late 70's cars and music, crime families, and small town conspiracies are my Kryptonite. I felt that both seasons were superbly written, for me final preference just came down to setting and atmosphere.

Have you ever seen Melancholia? It's Lars Von Trier so it's not an easy watch but ultimately it's an epic film and Kirsten should have won an Oscar for her performance. She's that good in it.

^Its worth mentioning that Melancholia is a very accessible Von Trier film, at least by his standards.

Rick and Morty is all on YouTube and it's something special.

Season 2 might just be the best season of a TV show I've ever seen.
