This, this entire season has been men bad women good. Of course the "good" man that saves mc is some kind of mythological figure slop. They really make every season worse and worse.
Literally the only decently written character in the entire show is the weird boogeyman dude, the entire show should be around him.
He isn't even human, remember the bowling alley shit in season 3? moronic show.
I don't need this fed to me, I've watched tv long enough to see this shit. Also don't even at me with this shit, season 1 was kino and the rest not so much. Especially the last two.
Roy goes to prison and kills his father in law and black cop
Women everywhere win
Gator goes to prison
Lorraine pays off everyone so Roy cant appeal and pays prisoners to harass him for the rest of his life
Munch gets enslaved by Dots biscuits.
I finally caught up on it. It's pretty decent for being a show produced in the current climate, beside all the moronic and hamfisted attempts to make him into Trump/Evil rightwing man. And we're really supposed to believe Roy, the old school man having a ranch and riding horses, does fricking webcasts? Lol. At least include some more instances of it than in episode 9.
Agree'd and they literally tried to ruin him at the end with the cooking homosexualry and muh love. He should of been the villian or main character. But I don't know why fargo needs to be more and more supernatural each season.
whole episode is written extra shit on top of the entire season >we have a perplexing standoff without imaginable solution or positive outcome >can't show cool gun violence cause we're too liberal >I know- the standoff just resolves itself offscreen, without any consequence, just splice in 2 or 3 images of some moronic slowmo action
imagine dragging this sin eater plot the whole season AND this moronic extended scene of pure cringe
just for a bad metaphor
After the silly shootout I'm like, what the hell will the episode be about?
And while I don't care about anything before they enter the house, after that I really liked it.
Hey guys. I'll watch this episode tomorrow. I've been making game threads and post-game threads for True Detective S5, so if you'd like to join me in watching shows that are on the decline, feel free to join me on Sundays since this season is about to end.
Jesus Christ this was the second worst Fargo episode for me
The worst one was the one where the female cop goes to LA in season 3
I binge watched entirety of Fargo this week. S2 was my favorite and I will be rewatching it throughout the years
I wonder if they will make a sixth season? Probably not because it doesn't seem the show is popular anymore. But if they do I hope it's set in the past. Seeing more about Gerhardt family or Ole Munch would be cool
for me Season 3 was the best for a while (due to Thewlis as Varga) but after a rewatch I'll have to go with Season 1. Billy Bob and Martin Freeman were just too good. i'm sure they'll do a sixth season but man I am really not feeling season 5, it never pulled me in. David Foley was the best part
Varga was such a disgusting character to observe during his close up eating and vomiting scenes. really good. I wish we had more Fargo aabout him. But it felt to me like the more they showed about his operation the less interesting he was
The bowling alley scene was incredibly israeli. The writers of the show (including previous seasons) hate rome, hate russians, like race mixxing and love gay ass sex and love strong women and hate white men.
>I wonder if they will make a sixth season? Probably not because it doesn't seem the show is popular anymore.
That's entirely their own fault you know. First with the Black Lives Matter season now with an Anti-Chud season. They just can't fricking help themselves. It's moronic.
i liked the BLM season, except Chris Rokc & the other italian mob leader. They are severe miscasts that hindered the show. They felt like GTA 5 npcs trying to interact with more serious characters. The big italian guy was fine for comedic relief he fit in, but not these two tards. The guy who played the old italian and doctor senator were very good, they should've been mob leaders. The credit card bit was cringe, but Cinemaphileners getting upset over it is more cringe tbh
Do you think there’s gonna be a last minute connection to the previous seasons? I can’t even imagine what they’d do here. Maybe Lorraine works for Varga?
S1, S2 watch them they are the best and super kino
Most likely you will like them and youll naturally watch them but they progressively get worse, but still watchable stuff

Yea but the standard kevlar vest apparently doesn't have those cause I've known for a long time that a knife will go through it.
I was expecting when ole munch finish eating suddenly he will go through rapid aging and maybe even magically disappear, instead he just smile like autist. My canon is that he killed that entire family and raped the anorexic b***h on the dinner table;because i was really hoping for bad ending where Roy gets to rape & kill her
>i paid every inmate in here to beat & probably rape you every single day >saying this right to the guy that shot a man & killed a deputy
Why is this fricking b***h so untouchable? At that point Roy isn’t getting out, I’d of lunged at her like that Black person who went after the judge at sentencing
Apologize to season 4 right now you homosexuals. You didn’t know how good you had it, I’ll take 27 credit card invention monologues over this legitimately schizophrenic woat ending. Dont give me that nonsense about the first 3 episodes being ok either. It amounted to this fricking garbage
Because 4 at least tried to a degree & at had a nice bow to previous much better seasons. 5 might as well be a new show & was mostly complete nothing & the finale was insultingly bad.
Only complaints are the abrupt end to both Tillmans and Witt dying. What a waste of Lamorne Morris. You slobber jowls b***h and moan all you want, but that ending was K I N O
Only complaints are the abrupt end to both Tillmans and Witt dying. What a waste of Lamorne Morris. You slobber jowls b***h and moan all you want, but that ending was K I N O
I'm glad Munch got a happy ending but this whole finale much like half of the episodes this season could have been handled in a much shorter timespan.
Just doesn't feel right without him, Gator should have been shown to be in a jailhouse hospital for the handicapped where this guy was his new cellmate.
As much as I would've loved a Wrench appearance, it is kinda nice to have a season that is 100% stand alone. I can't even recall one thing that ties it to the rest of the show. Kinda refreshing.
Anyone notice Dot's little reference to Malvo's line
"The shit they make us eat?"
Nope. No character, business names, locations or events. I watch with a bunch of friends and we autistically break down every episode and season. This one was truly stand alone.
I would’ve been okay with it but I like the idea if there is going to be a tie into previous seasons it’ll be different rather reusing the same character.
I thought there was a chance Varga was going to reappear either in prison or revealed that Lorraine’s wealth was gathered through being a figurehead for Varga squeezing a previous company of assets but I guess that wasn’t in the cards
That would’ve made Lorraine too irredeemable & speaks to the seasons complete jarringly bad subplots that served no purpose >Witt just dies >Lorraine having a heart because she saw photos of Dot’s bruised face >The random cancer patient that got tortured to death >The golfing manchild husband >Gator gets no resolution >Wayne making a full recovery from brain damage
I really don’t understand how this season has fans
It's not emphasizing agenda just because you feel targeted by it, you just can't handle being called out. Because of your fee-fees and being a delicate, untouchable little butterfly.

You’re the common halfwit pseud viewer defending banal horse shit because it reinforces your world of shallow political opinions.This season was mostly a dud chock full of hack writing with horrific pacing but you’ll eat it up because you got to hear “orange idiot” like it’s a bold new statement.

gator got his resolution, he serves punishment for his actions, he got along with dot and he helped in catching his father
i dont know why the cancer guy is that big problem for some, random people always died in this show, remember the guy in the ice hole or the guy being buried with hot asphalt?
wayne was gradually recovering from the brain damage for the whole season
if we're talking about subplots that have no purpose then s5 is much better than s4, where nothing felt like it had any point
rest of the stuff mostly had its purpose, either thematically or plot wise, but i disliked them for other reasons
the golfing guy was probably the worstly written, most shitty character in the whole show, he was a caricature of a caricature, it's like all the subtlety and nuance had disappeared
and that's not just the problem with him, same thing can be said about roy and lorraine, don draper's and daisy domergue's acting felt really bad, but i don't really blame the actors, it's not their fault what cringy things they had to say
that scene in the last episode where roy randomly kills his father in law because he was impolite, but then whoops! his wife saw that! what an unfortunate coincidence! was a good example of quality of writing in this season, everybody acting moronic, but not in a humane way of making mistakes because of the inner turmoils like lester in s1 or because of wanting to save your loved one like ed in s2, and then trying to find a way out through rational thinking, but in a shitty writing way, where everybody just does random stuff because it's convenient for the writer and then explaining it with "well he was just a dumb character"
munch could be a good villain if they hadn't forgot about him for the 8 episodes in the middle (i liked his last scene though)
the other problem with this season i have is that world of fargo always had some sort of cosmic justice working, at least for the main characters, whether it was god or fate or whatever, but people always had to pay for their sins one way or another and the good guys usually had good ending
meanwhile in s5 witt dies despite never doing anything wrong, while dot's actions never have any negative repercusions for her, not even mentiong lorraine who was probably even worse person than tillman, but she gets a free pass because what? because she's on the dot's side now, so that's okay with her being b***h because it's against the bad guys now?
overall good beginning of the season, terrible middle part (episode 7 especially, i thought about dropping the show while watching it), acceptable but not surprising ending
i think it may be objectively better than s4, but s4 was more interesting and had some good elements that made me keep watching
2>1>3>>4=5
i hope hawley finally will get his shit together, because i know he can create kino, but we all know that's not going to happen and his next projects will be even more shit

i've literally showed in that post examples of what i mean, which you have not addressed
The cancer guy for me was more just nothing happened with it & it happened because of Dot rather being too obscene. As stated before Dot did pretty much get that guy killed & she’s clearly not meant to be someone like Lester or Stussy who’s done wrong to lead to retribution for that. Gator & Wayne are more or less the same issue for me, it’s too abrupt, this show was always great at giving everyone their final bow out but instead this season everything just Peter’s out for the final monologue between Munch & the Lyons. If this seasons writing was applied to season 2 we wouldn’t have gotten Mike getting that promotion he didn’t want.
>I'm going to have you raped a bunch by convicts forever >*exeunt to girlboss overture*
I don't know what else I expected to be honest
This whole season felt very mean-spirited like I really don't see why Witt had to die.
Fargo is a Cohen brothers property, the cruel universe is half the appeal. It's like complaining that David Lynch's films are too weird.

I just clarified it’s not a matter of it being too cruel. They definitely teased some act of reprisal for torturing the cancer patient. Just felt odd how that’s never brought up again, I figured the militia would get ready for the government & it’d turn out it was the Fargo crime syndicate or something. Nothing with the typewriter guy or the guy who got dropped in the ice hole seemed like it was adding up to something but so much of season 5 felt like buildup to a bigger finale than the underwhelming result
>don't trust locals goy >the federal government and extremely wealthy are your friends >they are your moral guardians goy >they punish heckin mean sexists and white men who are bad, white man bad bad bad
What is there to get man, this show is fricking hilarious, the banner woman is literally strutting around bragging about destroying people, she's Hilary fricking Clinton and they want you to cheer for it. If you don't they want you to be raped to death but slowly.
>Roy is so heckin evil can you believe he beats women & kills people?? >uhhh but Lorraine is good because uh…she loves Dot! Ignore her bankrupting a man & his son to the point of poverty goy!
I knew Roy was going to live. Characters like Roy can't have kino death scenes where they fall in battle fighting for what they believe in because it makes them look like martyrs. Death would make him look to cool and inspire people but having him rot in prison being tortured makes him look weak. Roy was based til the end through. Best Fargo villain hands down.
I wish we had gotten more closure with Indira. She had a lot of potential to be a great cop character, but unfortunately her, whitt, and the FBI agents were way too underutilized.
There was really no reason for Jennifer Jason Leigh's character to be a debt financier like they dumped a lot of exposition for her even though she didn't really do anything
Redditors are incapable of understanding art that doesn't have binary moral choices and finales that don't feature capeshit clusterfrick showdowns where you already know how it ends.

>Beautiful ending, I love how the theme of debt is capstoned with forgiveness and love
This. I was smiling on the inside just as hard as Munch at the end. Very kino ending.

Shit ending.worst fargo episode. Wanna see kino ending? Watch "A Serious Man" its by Coen brothers. Watched it just before watching this episode
>Beautiful ending, I love how the theme of debt is capstoned with forgiveness and love
This. I was smiling on the inside just as hard as Munch at the end. Very kino ending.
I liked the Munch scene in isolation (guy playing him did a great job), but if you honestly think that the finale was good (or for that matter the season, beyond E3), you must be fricking moronic. And it's not about politics either, the plotting was shit and none of the characters went anywhere
Dogshit meme ending as predicted. Also massive frick up in ep 4 where Dot cuts the power to the house but Wayne still gets electrocuted is never addressed. Guess I gave Hawley way too much credit. What a fricking hack lmao
That last scene! Subverting the “eye for an eye” mentality of Munch/Roy/etc. with constant interruptions of domesticity, and then the dinner table where this guy who’s been beaten down by the sins of the wealthy breaks bread with a woman beaten down by a patriarchal monster.
So I really liked the ending, but the pacing of the episode was moronic. The ranch plot should have ended last week and this week started with ONE YEAR LATER.
We didn't need the shit puppet show to take up a whole episode, they could have consolidated it and wrapped up everything last week with this episode as an epilogue. The Munch scene could have gone longer.
Also Roy's last scene was bad. I get what they were going for, he abused his wives so he deserves abuse, I get it. But having a billionaire circumvent the justice system to systemically rape and abuse a prisoner is pretty bad messaging.
They should have spent the episode as a dialogue between Nadine and Munch. Like how The Bride and Bill talk at the climax of Kill Bill.
I'm halfway through the episode but so far this is one of the worst season finales I've ever seen, and it feels like the season is confirmed to be dogshit. Hawley's a hack who wasted this cast and I hope he has the humility to bow out and not create another season
it was but I still regard the whole thing as GAAYYYYY. the pacing was a complete mess, not just this episode but the entire season after the first two episodes. this whole shit could have been 5 or 6 episodes
cast, cinematography and sound design was amazing. dialog, cheeky needle drops and pacing were shit
Was this season not based and redpilled enough for you? Do you need all media to pander to your ego? It's produced in Hollywood in the 2020s, of course there will be a libtard undertone to the entire thing, I don't see how you can expect otherwise. And it has been there throughout the other seasons too, it isn't a new addition to fargo. Since the original movie it has been around women struggling for power in their world where men hold power over them. Munch and Dot carried a lot of the interest in the season for me, but the gripes ITT are nothing new.
I liked the season but I think it'll hold up much better for people watching it all at once rather than week by week. Last season was an episode too long but this one felt an episode too short.
Roy didn't give a shit that guy was beating his wife. He cared that the guy was defiant and didn't respect him. That's why he put on a big show of disciplining him and then went out of his way to frame him for the shootout.
white men are pathetic manchild and disloyal weak abusers. basically roy and gator rolled into one. if you didn't get the message, at one point he tells his beautiful loyal and honorable diverse wife that he wants everything to be about him.
absolutely not. white men are the main target of the show, and they are not known for their intelligence or subtlety, so you really have to hammer the point home.
>women are too smart to get into debt
that's not true I've seen a lot of women get into debt because they can't manage their money well. my ex was hugely in debt at 25 and that's one of the reasons I broke up with her and she had to go back and live with her parents.
Imagine if we got to see even one second of his personal life instead of being just told "oh btw he has six sisters" after his death. The entire way they handled Witt's character was by far the worst part of the season to me.
What a fricking cop out at the end. This is what I hate about the new movement in television to promote harmony and "the way it should be".
It's like they were mad about Chigurh in No Country and decided to turn it on its head and make it into a happy ending. It felt wrong. If Munch were to serve any purpose being heldover from the big shootout, it wasn't to fricking learn a nice lesson about family, forgiveness, and togetherness.
Frick! Even at the end of Season 3 Stussy ends up getting his brains blown all over the fridge in a happy family moment like in this one. Such a fricking colossal let down.
>it's not her fault he both fricked up and got fricked over.
but apparently that eternal and supernaturally wise white demon or whatever was too stupid to realize that by himself
How was he especially wise? He was a starving peasant who got paid 2 coins to partake in a ritual. He was just a miserable guy who couldn't die and hated humanity because of all the awful shit he saw and experience over the years
It's hard to explain without sounding pretentious and I'm not 100% sure how I feel about it. He felt indebted to his mission because of his history so he needed it fulfilled one way or another, he's been in the same cycle forever while thinking it had to be that way forever (a straight line). Dot just convinces him that you can forgive a debt and break the cycle by accepting the love you don't believe you deserve.
Cycle of abuse, loving/forgiving yourself, dot's biscuit was her loving husband and daughter, yada yada. I was wondering if and how they would tie Munch into the central themes of the show and they finally did in the last 10 minutes
>women are too smart to get into debt
that's not true I've seen a lot of women get into debt because they can't manage their money well. my ex was hugely in debt at 25 and that's one of the reasons I broke up with her and she had to go back and live with her parents.
And that's not to say that he should have killed Nadine or any of her family, but you don't put a guy like that in a house with him living by his code, and then have him just charmed out of it by some midwestern hospitality; a "pop" and a fricking biscuit and everyone was happy and the world is GOOD!
IDK what I'd have rather happened. I just felt that twist ending was fricking lame. I don't want to feel this way but I do. It just didn't ring true. Especially after the over-the-top prison punishment shit.
They literally have Dot state how Munch being weighed down by eating the sins of others is supposed to mirror a manipulative/abusive relationship where the abusers baggage is pushed onto the victim and prevents them from finding their own happiness. Its not good writing, but the intention was pretty clear.
I'm gonna be honest, lads, Munch getting his curse lifted had saved the season for me. It just felt right, despite of a bit cringe "oh they are so nice" buildup to it.
Overall this season was not that great, but not terrible (s04) either. That anon -
gator got his resolution, he serves punishment for his actions, he got along with dot and he helped in catching his father

is right on the money, there was a lot of moronic moments this season, but overall it didn't bring it down that much, like, say, it happened with season 3.
I don't think his curse was lifted. He just learned to live with it. If you could get your sins absolved so easily, the rich would've done it instead of passing it on.
Holy shit, you're unable to watch shows without "binging" them? Fricking kids. Unbelievable. Attention span of a fricking gnat. Bet you'll watch on your phone too. In public. butthole.

This track is goddamn kino, I listened to it for ~2 weeks after the season premiere, and these muppets didn't even use it on the show. I was sure it would get used on the ranch, maybe some kind of tender moment between Roy and Dot, before his character was finalised as an irredeemable (and stupid) abuser-rapist
>white family is whole >white 'villain' finds love >white 'villain', while blinded, learns he was headed down the wrong path >black cop dead >indian cop a slave to a white woman
Why do Chuds hate this season?
they directly reference scenes from Coen brothers movies like with Hanzee and the supply shop clerk in the backcountry in Season 2 being a pretty clear reference to Sugar and the man who generally closes around dark in NCFOM
The whole concept of >hi, I'm a random beat cop you've never met before, can I join your team of highly trained soldier-cops on their incursion against a heavily armed and fortified enemy's territory? I am equipped only with my standard sidearm btw >sure, sounds good
seemed and still seemed so fricking dumb to me
like it is 100% that guy's fault that Witt died, or maybe like 70% him, 30% Dot.
Dot has nothing to do with his death. His job was to locate and rescue Dot. He finished his mission. But for some fricking reason, he felt the need to chase after Roy, even though there was ZERO way for him to escape.
Is it me or Ole Munch talks and behaves like a very different character in the first episode? >"Shut the frick up already" >"There's a 38 in the glove box" >"And you- don't have any funny ideas"
And then later on its all "The man is grateful" or "Tiger this", "tiger that", it's so strange.
Yeah, Munch was just a regular bad guy in episode 1. Then he became supernatural.

I just rewatched his scenes and... sorta? He still talked in the third person and very slowly. I'll chalk it up to him needing to communicate commands effectively and not wanting to sound cryptic.
This season was on par with the abortion that was S4 in its shitiness, and I'm not even sure what's worse: the relentless wading through shit that was S4 or the fact that S5 started off strong and only then dived headfirst into a pool of shit
The writing for the characters was so bad, it's like they had no idea what to do with most of them or how to use them in the story. What do trooper Farr and the cop lady accomplish exactly? Roy is the worst Fargo villain on memory and not even Hamm can redeem the character with his performance, he just makes one stupid (unjustified in-universe) decision after the other (let me just kill my FIL militia leader in the middle of the siege). Munch starts off very promising, but is completely wasted in episodes 4 to 9. The only main characters that were adequately written were Dot and Gator
I can't believe I was hyped for this season, only thing now on the horizon to look forward to is HOTD S2
>What do trooper Farr and the cop lady accomplish exactly?
Nothing. Fricking nothing! Whit seems to have a purpose in episode 1 when Dot saves his life, and then he spends the rest of the show recovering from his wound and driving around being chased away by people who don't want to talk to him. I don't know why he's even a main character when he's supporting at best. Meanwhile Indira is more present in the show but just as useless, she arrests Dot at the start (big deal) and shows up when she disappears, then she spends the rest of the time bouncing between being as unwanted a presence as Whit and having to deal with her dumb c**t husband. Then what, she criticizes JJL once and that's an adequate interview to lead - not join, lead - her security team? I hate it. They're both such fricking nothings especially when compared to a Solverson or Gloria Burgle. Margie Gunderson in the movie was pregnant and made a better detective than these two dull dolts.
>They're both such fricking nothings especially when compared to a Solverson or Gloria Burgle
Damn I was about to chime in and say that putting Burgle above the S5 cops is too far but actually even though Burgle achieves nothing she at least is witness to the events of S3 and connects it all together for the benefit of the audience (aka MNSKY).
Shit anon you're right they're fricking terrible this season. Total nothing, even compared to a character who is written implicitly to DO NOTHING.
I don't get it. What's the takeaway here? Don't beat your wives or the big bad government will come in to blow your house down? How does that jive with the two cops being completely useless or the FBI couple being ineffectual all season? We were supposed to be happy the billionaire b***h was better at manipulating a corrupt system than some nobody sheriff? It all felt like a huge simplistic downgrade compared to what we got with Varga. This was easily the worst season of Fargo and it ruined any hype I had for the Alien show.
Dot forgiving Munch was okay though. It might've played better if it happened earlier in the show, but then again, the entire season would've been much better without Munch sucking up all the other side character's development.
I really liked this season. I would give it an 8/10. I don't get the woman good/men bad complaint as there are good men and bad women in this season. I liked the very end with the weird dude at dinner. I thought the 8th and 9th episodes dragged a bit too much. If the show was 1.5 - 2 episodes shorter, it would have been better. But overall a good season
>ranch is raided by the army, FBI, and the state police >guy is injured, hobbling, literally nowhere to run >the premise is pretty much secured, no way of escape >"yeah, lemme fricking chase after him" >"nah, I'm not going to shoot the injured guy who can barely move in the legs or anything to disable him"
Fricking moronic. It's like show realized that not enough people have died, so they just had to find people to kill off at the end.
Shooting someone in the leg to incapacitate them is likely to kill them anyway, and you are more likely to miss. If you shoot, you shoot to kill and that's it. The Angolan 2-Step is the best way
i'm just an anon in basement without any knowledge, so i might be wrong, but i don't really think those are the procedures that american police officers are taught
The problem (imo) isnt that he dies, it's that he dies in such a moronic way.
>Roy is walking around like nothing after getting blasted >Cop can't hear a man who's shot in the chest waiting in lure >moronic flickering lights >Gets stabbed before he pulls the trigger
There GOTTA be a better way to write that scene. Just terrible writing.
>gets shot in the belly >lying on the porch >good guys vs bad guys shootout >camera pants to where Roy was supposed to be >be disappeared >he teleported through the entire gunfight and arrived at the bunker which leads to...?
>here's some flowers, dead black cop >haha btw remember that random guy I got tortured and murdered by mistake? he was rude so no flowers for his grave
If they ever make a S6, I hope they do a better job with the characters. We learned literally nothing about Witt Farr. Okay, he's a state trooper, who used to be in the army. Learned nothing about him except at the end where he has 6 sisters.
Native cop's husband was a piece of shit. That's all that there was to him
Car salesman recovered his memories but is still slow talking?
No resolution to finding the pirate lawyer's corpse and going to visit him at the cemetery? He just dies, and that's it?
The whole season had so many episodes, but there was NOTHING to fill it with. Take, for example, the last episode. The shootout were 2 second clips spliced together, ending in less than a minute. The rest of the show was people talking slowly.
Did anybody else get weirded out with how quickly the house for fixed? The entire S5 took place over the spam of 1 week, from late October to early November.
The house got fricking burnt down, or at the very least, the 2nd floor, for half of the house. But now it's all of a sudden, magically fixed? Even with Lorraine's resources, it shouldn't be fixed that quickly, not like Wayne would've accepted it either way.
And what happened to the guns Dot ordered? It should've arrived at the same time she arrived back home.
>Whats gonna happen?
The women will win
>Who gonna die?
The white men
This, this entire season has been men bad women good. Of course the "good" man that saves mc is some kind of mythological figure slop. They really make every season worse and worse.
He isn't even human, remember the bowling alley shit in season 3? moronic show.
>This, this entire season has been men bad women good.
Lots of things going on and all you could gather was talking points fed to you.
I don't need this fed to me, I've watched tv long enough to see this shit. Also don't even at me with this shit, season 1 was kino and the rest not so much. Especially the last two.
Roy goes to prison and kills his father in law and black cop
Women everywhere win
Gator goes to prison
Lorraine pays off everyone so Roy cant appeal and pays prisoners to harass him for the rest of his life
Munch gets enslaved by Dots biscuits.
>Roy kills black cop
Based. I'm on noporn run but need to fap.
Anyone got a link
I finally caught up on it. It's pretty decent for being a show produced in the current climate, beside all the moronic and hamfisted attempts to make him into Trump/Evil rightwing man. And we're really supposed to believe Roy, the old school man having a ranch and riding horses, does fricking webcasts? Lol. At least include some more instances of it than in episode 9.
Literally the only decently written character in the entire show is the weird boogeyman dude, the entire show should be around him.
Agree'd and they literally tried to ruin him at the end with the cooking homosexualry and muh love. He should of been the villian or main character. But I don't know why fargo needs to be more and more supernatural each season.
Link
dubs and roy kills the damn dirty gubmint and gets away with it all
If you'd torrented it, you'd be done by now.
t. biscuit eater
>anticlimatic shootout
>deputy dies a stupid and senseless death
>that ending
what the hell were they thinking?
kino
Munch found redemption in love it was petty nice especially when you think he's gonna Lenny everyone at dinner
If only you knew how good things really are
whole episode is written extra shit on top of the entire season
>we have a perplexing standoff without imaginable solution or positive outcome
>can't show cool gun violence cause we're too liberal
>I know- the standoff just resolves itself offscreen, without any consequence, just splice in 2 or 3 images of some moronic slowmo action
imagine dragging this sin eater plot the whole season AND this moronic extended scene of pure cringe
just for a bad metaphor
After the silly shootout I'm like, what the hell will the episode be about?
And while I don't care about anything before they enter the house, after that I really liked it.
Huh I forgot it's not over yet
Last episode was extra dumb
Who writes this shit
its soooo baaaaaaadddd
Spoiler bros was it really such dogshit
It's exactly what everyone expected for Current Year politics.
Hey guys. I'll watch this episode tomorrow. I've been making game threads and post-game threads for True Detective S5, so if you'd like to join me in watching shows that are on the decline, feel free to join me on Sundays since this season is about to end.
Although I am enjoying the season so far.
Jesus Christ this was the second worst Fargo episode for me
The worst one was the one where the female cop goes to LA in season 3
I binge watched entirety of Fargo this week. S2 was my favorite and I will be rewatching it throughout the years
I wonder if they will make a sixth season? Probably not because it doesn't seem the show is popular anymore. But if they do I hope it's set in the past. Seeing more about Gerhardt family or Ole Munch would be cool
for me Season 3 was the best for a while (due to Thewlis as Varga) but after a rewatch I'll have to go with Season 1. Billy Bob and Martin Freeman were just too good. i'm sure they'll do a sixth season but man I am really not feeling season 5, it never pulled me in. David Foley was the best part
I really liked S5 E2 and E3 but it went downhill. I liked the Slasher movie + Home Alone kinda Kill Bill but innocent woman feeling it gave
Also Season 3 was really boring in the first few episodes
Varga was such a disgusting character to observe during his close up eating and vomiting scenes. really good. I wish we had more Fargo aabout him. But it felt to me like the more they showed about his operation the less interesting he was
The bowling alley scene was incredibly israeli. The writers of the show (including previous seasons) hate rome, hate russians, like race mixxing and love gay ass sex and love strong women and hate white men.
>hate russians, like race mixxing and love gay ass sex
you contradict yourself
>hate russians
He was Ukrainian.
No such thing.
yeah fargos over so noah hawley can ruin the alien show next
>I wonder if they will make a sixth season? Probably not because it doesn't seem the show is popular anymore.
That's entirely their own fault you know. First with the Black Lives Matter season now with an Anti-Chud season. They just can't fricking help themselves. It's moronic.
i liked the BLM season, except Chris Rokc & the other italian mob leader. They are severe miscasts that hindered the show. They felt like GTA 5 npcs trying to interact with more serious characters. The big italian guy was fine for comedic relief he fit in, but not these two tards. The guy who played the old italian and doctor senator were very good, they should've been mob leaders. The credit card bit was cringe, but Cinemaphileners getting upset over it is more cringe tbh
the LA episode of S3 was incredible, don't compare it to this trash
Do you think there’s gonna be a last minute connection to the previous seasons? I can’t even imagine what they’d do here. Maybe Lorraine works for Varga?
Yeah where’s the deaf fringe jacket guy?
That’s why season 4 is at least slightly more tolerable for me. I liked the Mike Milligan reveal
Best character coming through.
should i watch all the seasons of this show? never seen it
S1, S2 watch them they are the best and super kino
Most likely you will like them and youll naturally watch them but they progressively get worse, but still watchable stuff
season 4 is barely watchable, I would avoid.
Between nine seasons of Fargo and True Detective, this one ranks third
we can't rank TD4 after one episode, but that said I'd still rate it over Fargo S5 if that's what we're doing.
>TD1
>Fargo 2
>Fargo 1
power gap
>Fargo 3
>TD3
>TD2
power gap
multiple power gaps
seriously don't waste your time gap
>Fargo 5
>Fargo 4
TD4 goes in the Fargo 3 - TD2 zone based off the premier, could get much better or much worse
moron take
What a pointless end to a pointless character.
>put the knife down
>no
>ok then
>swat operation
>no vest
Vests stop bullets not knives
They stop both lol
Google it homeslice
>A bulletproof vest functions by capturing and flattening a bullet within protective fibers, which disperses the energy across the vest. However, when it comes to edged weapons like knives, these weapons can cut through the protective fibers, rendering the vest ineffective.
>what are armor plates
slash and stab resistant
Yea but the standard kevlar vest apparently doesn't have those cause I've known for a long time that a knife will go through it.
>still no vest at all
I was expecting when ole munch finish eating suddenly he will go through rapid aging and maybe even magically disappear, instead he just smile like autist. My canon is that he killed that entire family and raped the anorexic b***h on the dinner table;because i was really hoping for bad ending where Roy gets to rape & kill her
schitzo take
>two minute scene
>five minutes of commercials
This sloppy network isn’t for me senpai.
It's not usually this bad, I think they're trying to pad out the runtime which would make sense because this finale SUCKS.
>i paid every inmate in here to beat & probably rape you every single day
>saying this right to the guy that shot a man & killed a deputy
Why is this fricking b***h so untouchable? At that point Roy isn’t getting out, I’d of lunged at her like that Black person who went after the judge at sentencing
>Why is this fricking b***h so untouchable?
You know why
Yeah he could of easily gouged her eyes out before anyone could rip him off here. Also he could kill an inmate or two and be put in solitary.
He was cuffed up pretty thoroughly.
I LIVE HERE NOW
Apologize to season 4 right now you homosexuals. You didn’t know how good you had it, I’ll take 27 credit card invention monologues over this legitimately schizophrenic woat ending. Dont give me that nonsense about the first 3 episodes being ok either. It amounted to this fricking garbage
Why would you subject yourself willingly to either
Because 4 at least tried to a degree & at had a nice bow to previous much better seasons. 5 might as well be a new show & was mostly complete nothing & the finale was insultingly bad.
I thought that season was great. Oddly setting Fargo in the past is better for TV kino than modern times.
im sorry season 4 >_<
It would be so funny if he suddenly melted.
Only complaints are the abrupt end to both Tillmans and Witt dying. What a waste of Lamorne Morris. You slobber jowls b***h and moan all you want, but that ending was K I N O
That episode was the perfect ending. I think it may have solidified it as my favorite season of Fargo.
I'm glad Munch got a happy ending but this whole finale much like half of the episodes this season could have been handled in a much shorter timespan.
Go to bed Noah
Well Fargosisters time to rewatch the movie and Seasons 1 and 2 and then go into a cryogenic slumber
See you in 2030, fargo bro!! Hawley will need a break after pumping 10 straight seasons of disney alien slop out
>invoke jesus
>have an entire scene about how sin can be forgiven with the bread (flesh) of love
Holy BASED hawley
Did NOT see that coming.
Just doesn't feel right without him, Gator should have been shown to be in a jailhouse hospital for the handicapped where this guy was his new cellmate.
As much as I would've loved a Wrench appearance, it is kinda nice to have a season that is 100% stand alone. I can't even recall one thing that ties it to the rest of the show. Kinda refreshing.
Anyone notice Dot's little reference to Malvo's line
"The shit they make us eat?"
Wow, there wasn't a single reference to the other seasons? I was sure I missed something
Nope. No character, business names, locations or events. I watch with a bunch of friends and we autistically break down every episode and season. This one was truly stand alone.
There were allusions to the movie though right?
Dot paraphrased Malvo in the last episode
No, besides the kidnapping in E1 being a clear shot-for-shot homage of a similar scene from the film
based. I loved him and Numbers
I would’ve been okay with it but I like the idea if there is going to be a tie into previous seasons it’ll be different rather reusing the same character.
I thought there was a chance Varga was going to reappear either in prison or revealed that Lorraine’s wealth was gathered through being a figurehead for Varga squeezing a previous company of assets but I guess that wasn’t in the cards
That would’ve made Lorraine too irredeemable & speaks to the seasons complete jarringly bad subplots that served no purpose
>Witt just dies
>Lorraine having a heart because she saw photos of Dot’s bruised face
>The random cancer patient that got tortured to death
>The golfing manchild husband
>Gator gets no resolution
>Wayne making a full recovery from brain damage
I really don’t understand how this season has fans
This whole season felt very mean-spirited like I really don't see why Witt had to die.
Innocent people die in senseless ways every season. Imagine getting filtered this hard
While whining like a b***h on the rag
Im gonna be honest with you. Most of these have real purpose and resolution if you watched a little more carefully.
Real shitty purpose that only exist if you’re a bad writer who emphasizes agenda over plot yeah. You likely agree with the agenda so you didn’t care
It's not emphasizing agenda just because you feel targeted by it, you just can't handle being called out. Because of your fee-fees and being a delicate, untouchable little butterfly.
You’re the common halfwit pseud viewer defending banal horse shit because it reinforces your world of shallow political opinions.This season was mostly a dud chock full of hack writing with horrific pacing but you’ll eat it up because you got to hear “orange idiot” like it’s a bold new statement. These shows are made now for dolts like you who love hearing the same exact things endlessly barren of any other quality
All your shit for brains can do is bark buzzwords at people when they call out your borrowed ideals and desperate cries for attention. Frick off back to your hug zone, you're a boring, docile twat.
Projection all throughout your post. All you’ve done is been a pouty c**t waffling about how chuds didn’t like or “get it” because of its message. You’re the one who needs a safe space because if anyone criticizes your precious entertainment it’s because they’re who it was talking about, it couldn’t possibly be someone who found the show lacking. It’s that exact kind of dense mentality why you won’t be taken seriously & should be made fun of relentlessly for having no standards
>the cancer patient that got tortured to death
Kek absolutely nothing happened with that,I thought he was buddies with Wrench or something but nope.
yeah the cancer guy getting murdered felt way too cruel, even by Fargo standards. it's fricked up since Dot basically got him killed
>I really don’t understand how this season has fans
You can sell absolutely anything to a certain group of people if you mark your products with the text ORANGE MAN BAD
>Be me
>Watch this season
>It's great
>Get up to the part where basically they are saying these guys are like trump supporters
>"Lmao that's so cringe but Trump supporters really ARE huge morons and support Israel"

Lol
Only low IQ people support Palestine over Israel.
>He thinks it's about supporting Palestine
Lmaaaaoooo such low IQ.
*Only low iq or super high iq people support Palestine with no inbetween
Ftfy
Supporting Israel on the other hand is fully limited to the midwit position with zero people that are actually smart
What israelites have given to the world:

uhh
hi israelite
Boy can you count from 1 to 10? Guess who came up with our number system.
to be fair, they have given the world a lot of explosions
Oil
all stolen from the original. or all of it ~~*theories*~~
nothing worse than a wienersucker who lets israelites lie to them so easy while reinforcing your name sake.
>youre just a christcuck
youre the one who puts blind faith into math that looks neat and only works if another ~~*theory*~~ backs it up with more numbers and theories that only work thanks to another ~~*scientist*~~who also just pulled it all out of his ass after he observed an ~~*apple*~~ falling to the ground. shalom
Imagine supporting either.
Never happened, Lorraine was the one donating to your daddy. You can't even pay attention to the shit you watch.
gator got his resolution, he serves punishment for his actions, he got along with dot and he helped in catching his father
i dont know why the cancer guy is that big problem for some, random people always died in this show, remember the guy in the ice hole or the guy being buried with hot asphalt?
wayne was gradually recovering from the brain damage for the whole season
if we're talking about subplots that have no purpose then s5 is much better than s4, where nothing felt like it had any point
rest of the stuff mostly had its purpose, either thematically or plot wise, but i disliked them for other reasons
the golfing guy was probably the worstly written, most shitty character in the whole show, he was a caricature of a caricature, it's like all the subtlety and nuance had disappeared
and that's not just the problem with him, same thing can be said about roy and lorraine, don draper's and daisy domergue's acting felt really bad, but i don't really blame the actors, it's not their fault what cringy things they had to say
that scene in the last episode where roy randomly kills his father in law because he was impolite, but then whoops! his wife saw that! what an unfortunate coincidence! was a good example of quality of writing in this season, everybody acting moronic, but not in a humane way of making mistakes because of the inner turmoils like lester in s1 or because of wanting to save your loved one like ed in s2, and then trying to find a way out through rational thinking, but in a shitty writing way, where everybody just does random stuff because it's convenient for the writer and then explaining it with "well he was just a dumb character"
munch could be a good villain if they hadn't forgot about him for the 8 episodes in the middle (i liked his last scene though)
the other problem with this season i have is that world of fargo always had some sort of cosmic justice working, at least for the main characters, whether it was god or fate or whatever, but people always had to pay for their sins one way or another and the good guys usually had good ending
meanwhile in s5 witt dies despite never doing anything wrong, while dot's actions never have any negative repercusions for her, not even mentiong lorraine who was probably even worse person than tillman, but she gets a free pass because what? because she's on the dot's side now, so that's okay with her being b***h because it's against the bad guys now?
overall good beginning of the season, terrible middle part (episode 7 especially, i thought about dropping the show while watching it), acceptable but not surprising ending
i think it may be objectively better than s4, but s4 was more interesting and had some good elements that made me keep watching
2>1>3>>4=5
i hope hawley finally will get his shit together, because i know he can create kino, but we all know that's not going to happen and his next projects will be even more shit
>his next projects will be even more shit
The Xenomorph will gain the ability to speak and will support Drumpf
the xenomorph is a space chud
>the other problem with this season i have is that world of fargo always had some sort of cosmic justice working, at least for the main characters, whether it was god or fate or whatever, but people always had to pay for their sins one way or another and the good guys usually had good ending
So many morons in this thread.
>sheriff got sentenced to a lifetime of misery
>before doing so he killed his FiL who was also a PoS
>His so got his eyes plucked for stealing and for killing that old lady (whom the cops don't know he killed)
>Munch was abused and cursed by the wealthy and was saved because he looked after the old woman and he saved Dott
>Indira was saved from debt for her good works
i've literally showed in that post examples of what i mean, which you have not addressed
Both cops were basically useless to the plot.
The cancer guy for me was more just nothing happened with it & it happened because of Dot rather being too obscene. As stated before Dot did pretty much get that guy killed & she’s clearly not meant to be someone like Lester or Stussy who’s done wrong to lead to retribution for that. Gator & Wayne are more or less the same issue for me, it’s too abrupt, this show was always great at giving everyone their final bow out but instead this season everything just Peter’s out for the final monologue between Munch & the Lyons. If this seasons writing was applied to season 2 we wouldn’t have gotten Mike getting that promotion he didn’t want.
Fargo is a Cohen brothers property, the cruel universe is half the appeal. It's like complaining that David Lynch's films are too weird.
I just clarified it’s not a matter of it being too cruel. They definitely teased some act of reprisal for torturing the cancer patient. Just felt odd how that’s never brought up again, I figured the militia would get ready for the government & it’d turn out it was the Fargo crime syndicate or something. Nothing with the typewriter guy or the guy who got dropped in the ice hole seemed like it was adding up to something but so much of season 5 felt like buildup to a bigger finale than the underwhelming result
>don't trust locals goy
>the federal government and extremely wealthy are your friends
>they are your moral guardians goy
>they punish heckin mean sexists and white men who are bad, white man bad bad bad
What is there to get man, this show is fricking hilarious, the banner woman is literally strutting around bragging about destroying people, she's Hilary fricking Clinton and they want you to cheer for it. If you don't they want you to be raped to death but slowly.
That's what this season says.
>Roy is so heckin evil can you believe he beats women & kills people??
>uhhh but Lorraine is good because uh…she loves Dot! Ignore her bankrupting a man & his son to the point of poverty goy!
I knew Roy was going to live. Characters like Roy can't have kino death scenes where they fall in battle fighting for what they believe in because it makes them look like martyrs. Death would make him look to cool and inspire people but having him rot in prison being tortured makes him look weak. Roy was based til the end through. Best Fargo villain hands down.
Checked and no way Varga is the best followed by Malvo.
Fargo doesn't really have bad villains, to be fair. Season 4 is the only one with weaker characterizations.
Wayne is my favorite Fargo character ever, though. Unfathomablely based.
I liked Dodd
If they had just left out the trump stuff it would have felt so much less cringy.
Hamm did a really good job though.
>If they had just left out the trump stuff it would have felt so much less cringy.
Not really. It'd still be anti-white anti-male wokeshit.
I didn't know they aired this in Russia, since you're the only mouthbreathers still trying to force this shit.
>Nipple piercings
He was a gay.
This season was just this joke except played straight
Anyone suprised there were only 2 main character deaths?
Danish amd Whitt...so very un-fargo-like.
hello.
im linda now.
my pronoun is mine.
A man is... a woman
I wish we had gotten more closure with Indira. She had a lot of potential to be a great cop character, but unfortunately her, whitt, and the FBI agents were way too underutilized.
There was really no reason for Jennifer Jason Leigh's character to be a debt financier like they dumped a lot of exposition for her even though she didn't really do anything
She called the orange moron and got Dot out of the ranch safe and sound.
Redditors are incapable of understanding art that doesn't have binary moral choices and finales that don't feature capeshit clusterfrick showdowns where you already know how it ends.
Beautiful ending, I love how the theme of debt is capstoned with forgiveness and love.
>Beautiful ending, I love how the theme of debt is capstoned with forgiveness and love
This. I was smiling on the inside just as hard as Munch at the end. Very kino ending.
Shit ending.worst fargo episode. Wanna see kino ending? Watch "A Serious Man" its by Coen brothers. Watched it just before watching this episode
BUT I DON'T WANT TO WATCH A SERIOUS MAN
I'VE JUST BEEN IN A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT
I liked the Munch scene in isolation (guy playing him did a great job), but if you honestly think that the finale was good (or for that matter the season, beyond E3), you must be fricking moronic. And it's not about politics either, the plotting was shit and none of the characters went anywhere
Dogshit meme ending as predicted. Also massive frick up in ep 4 where Dot cuts the power to the house but Wayne still gets electrocuted is never addressed. Guess I gave Hawley way too much credit. What a fricking hack lmao
That last scene! Subverting the “eye for an eye” mentality of Munch/Roy/etc. with constant interruptions of domesticity, and then the dinner table where this guy who’s been beaten down by the sins of the wealthy breaks bread with a woman beaten down by a patriarchal monster.
Beautiful.
Why are trained men literally so stupid? Flags his teammate in the back with his weapon. This makes me think that women are so strong.
do you know what perspective is
Their whole "tactical" thing was obviously really bad in every single area. Not a single one knew how to walk or hold a rifle properly
a non spends his entire life on chinese cartoon websites... he goes years without speaking to another soul...
Gator + Wrench prison break s6?
So I really liked the ending, but the pacing of the episode was moronic. The ranch plot should have ended last week and this week started with ONE YEAR LATER.
We didn't need the shit puppet show to take up a whole episode, they could have consolidated it and wrapped up everything last week with this episode as an epilogue. The Munch scene could have gone longer.
Also Roy's last scene was bad. I get what they were going for, he abused his wives so he deserves abuse, I get it. But having a billionaire circumvent the justice system to systemically rape and abuse a prisoner is pretty bad messaging.
They should have spent the episode as a dialogue between Nadine and Munch. Like how The Bride and Bill talk at the climax of Kill Bill.
It was still mostly good though.
>having a billionaire circumvent the justice system to systemically rape and abuse a prisoner is pretty bad messaging
It's ok when they do it 🙂
I'm halfway through the episode but so far this is one of the worst season finales I've ever seen, and it feels like the season is confirmed to be dogshit. Hawley's a hack who wasted this cast and I hope he has the humility to bow out and not create another season
its okay anon, the second half is much better
it was but I still regard the whole thing as GAAYYYYY. the pacing was a complete mess, not just this episode but the entire season after the first two episodes. this whole shit could have been 5 or 6 episodes
cast, cinematography and sound design was amazing. dialog, cheeky needle drops and pacing were shit
A man agrees with you
What an awful woke slop season that was
What a sad job the glavset has been doing with this, it's like your heart is not in it.
Was this season not based and redpilled enough for you? Do you need all media to pander to your ego? It's produced in Hollywood in the 2020s, of course there will be a libtard undertone to the entire thing, I don't see how you can expect otherwise. And it has been there throughout the other seasons too, it isn't a new addition to fargo. Since the original movie it has been around women struggling for power in their world where men hold power over them. Munch and Dot carried a lot of the interest in the season for me, but the gripes ITT are nothing new.
I liked the season but I think it'll hold up much better for people watching it all at once rather than week by week. Last season was an episode too long but this one felt an episode too short.
That was an ok season. Wasn't as memorable as 1 and 2.
Ugh now I have only True Detective to watch until Curb comes back for the series finale.
>black guy dies
This season wasn't so bad after all
Lorraine makes me glad I have no debt.
I didn't get roy beating his wife and then beating the guy who beats his wife.
Roy didn't give a shit that guy was beating his wife. He cared that the guy was defiant and didn't respect him. That's why he put on a big show of disciplining him and then went out of his way to frame him for the shootout.
what was up with roy killing his father in law?
roy bad
Are you really going to let an old decrepit frick talk shit about you and coming to clock you one in the face?
A Man is forced to read all these annotations.
A Man despairs.
Can someone explain what the point of this guy was?
white men are pathetic manchild and disloyal weak abusers. basically roy and gator rolled into one. if you didn't get the message, at one point he tells his beautiful loyal and honorable diverse wife that he wants everything to be about him.
Wasn't it a little too on the nose though?
women can't write any other way
absolutely not. white men are the main target of the show, and they are not known for their intelligence or subtlety, so you really have to hammer the point home.
Yeah it was obvious he was a useless entitled loser and it was funny seeing the b***h he was cheating with immediately realize it.
Yes and I stopped watching the show right when that scene was shown
What the frick were they thinking
to show that men bring women down, even if they don't abuse them.
They needed a reason Indira was in massive debt without it being her fault because women are too smart to get into debt
>women are too smart to get into debt
that's not true I've seen a lot of women get into debt because they can't manage their money well. my ex was hugely in debt at 25 and that's one of the reasons I broke up with her and she had to go back and live with her parents.
Did anyone else laugh at 'beloved brother'?
Imagine if we got to see even one second of his personal life instead of being just told "oh btw he has six sisters" after his death. The entire way they handled Witt's character was by far the worst part of the season to me.
What a fricking cop out at the end. This is what I hate about the new movement in television to promote harmony and "the way it should be".
It's like they were mad about Chigurh in No Country and decided to turn it on its head and make it into a happy ending. It felt wrong. If Munch were to serve any purpose being heldover from the big shootout, it wasn't to fricking learn a nice lesson about family, forgiveness, and togetherness.
Frick! Even at the end of Season 3 Stussy ends up getting his brains blown all over the fridge in a happy family moment like in this one. Such a fricking colossal let down.
What did you want to happen? She was right about the debt, it's not her fault he both fricked up and got fricked over.
>it's not her fault he both fricked up and got fricked over.
but apparently that eternal and supernaturally wise white demon or whatever was too stupid to realize that by himself
How was he especially wise? He was a starving peasant who got paid 2 coins to partake in a ritual. He was just a miserable guy who couldn't die and hated humanity because of all the awful shit he saw and experience over the years
It's hard to explain without sounding pretentious and I'm not 100% sure how I feel about it. He felt indebted to his mission because of his history so he needed it fulfilled one way or another, he's been in the same cycle forever while thinking it had to be that way forever (a straight line). Dot just convinces him that you can forgive a debt and break the cycle by accepting the love you don't believe you deserve.
Cycle of abuse, loving/forgiving yourself, dot's biscuit was her loving husband and daughter, yada yada. I was wondering if and how they would tie Munch into the central themes of the show and they finally did in the last 10 minutes
I was genuinely surprised he showed up again, I thought they would just forget about him.
you're telling me this 500 year old warlock never thought of that or faced this conundrum before, in all his life? that's a long fricking time
He didnt strike me as a deep thinker
Cinema sin +1
That's what it feels like to be lost in sin, brother. Seek jesus.
And that's not to say that he should have killed Nadine or any of her family, but you don't put a guy like that in a house with him living by his code, and then have him just charmed out of it by some midwestern hospitality; a "pop" and a fricking biscuit and everyone was happy and the world is GOOD!
IDK what I'd have rather happened. I just felt that twist ending was fricking lame. I don't want to feel this way but I do. It just didn't ring true. Especially after the over-the-top prison punishment shit.
They literally have Dot state how Munch being weighed down by eating the sins of others is supposed to mirror a manipulative/abusive relationship where the abusers baggage is pushed onto the victim and prevents them from finding their own happiness. Its not good writing, but the intention was pretty clear.
IF IT AINT ROY IT AINT RIGHT

>write one of the most engaging villains in fargo history
>dont know what to do with him
this is hawley's problem with most of his characters, they either just die or they stick around with nothing left to do
Little bit disappointed because a man has to get the dicky in the end.
Am I obsessed or was she wearing the trans colors?
you're mentally ill
Rude.
Bland enough that I won't ever care to re-watch it. At the very least I got 20 mins of Munch at the end.
>name is Munch
>he munches
female writers strike again
My subtitles called him Moonk
That's how he pronounces the name. Oolay- Moonk.
I'm gonna be honest, lads, Munch getting his curse lifted had saved the season for me. It just felt right, despite of a bit cringe "oh they are so nice" buildup to it.
Overall this season was not that great, but not terrible (s04) either. That anon -
is right on the money, there was a lot of moronic moments this season, but overall it didn't bring it down that much, like, say, it happened with season 3.
I never got him really. Especially the last episode was painfull.
All i got is "debt needs to be repaid". Ok bro. Why mumble for hours about it though ?
>Why mumble for hours about it though ?
The guy was a soulless vessel wandering the earth. He's legit not all there
I don't think his curse was lifted. He just learned to live with it. If you could get your sins absolved so easily, the rich would've done it instead of passing it on.
munch munched
Finally I can start watching this now that this season is over
Holy shit, you're unable to watch shows without "binging" them? Fricking kids. Unbelievable. Attention span of a fricking gnat. Bet you'll watch on your phone too. In public. butthole.
be quiet
The biscuits are communion wafers idiots.
>tfw /ourguy/ jeff russo made probably the best version of the show's theme for this season and it wasn't even used
?si=nUe1KyLAiAH9i4F3&t=252
>fargo leadership using something good
huh
This track is goddamn kino, I listened to it for ~2 weeks after the season premiere, and these muppets didn't even use it on the show. I was sure it would get used on the ranch, maybe some kind of tender moment between Roy and Dot, before his character was finalised as an irredeemable (and stupid) abuser-rapist
Hamm's acting was pretty unconvincing throughout this show imo.
Hamm was terrible. Hes just a bad actor in general. He got away with it in Mad Men because Don Draper being a wood plank fit the characters backstory
Hamm's pretty good in comedy but I always questioned his dramatic ability outside of a tailor made role for him like Draper.
holy fricking cringe
how was this made by the same people that made s1+2
unreal
karens one hot piece of ass
Was the actor playing her dad her actual dad? They really looked like relatives.
i dont think they're related but the actor who plays her dad is named Michael Copeman
She was really cute.
What was the meaning of Bisquik?
>What was the meaning of Bisquik?
he wanted pancakes.
But he got biscuits.
he got some kind of sweet bread with love so he's happy now.

Why do Chuds hate this season?
okay this season just got based
Based? Based on what?
utter garbage
As much as I hated that one dimensional police women husband It made me realize that I was a lot like him.
At least I can take it as a learning experience.
wet fart of an ending, thematically all over the place.
goddamit I was tricked again by americans into watching an alegory on their elections
>hurr I'm in your house because of muh code
Literally stole this ending.
anon... I...
they directly reference scenes from Coen brothers movies like with Hanzee and the supply shop clerk in the backcountry in Season 2 being a pretty clear reference to Sugar and the man who generally closes around dark in NCFOM
they be stealing tons of shit from that movie
>I'm going to have you raped a bunch by convicts forever
>*exeunt to girlboss overture*
I don't know what else I expected to be honest
You're the one making it about rape.
am I though?
You are. You're moving her statements around to fabricate a different context.
Rape is definitely part of it but she didn't mention it first.
debt queen said he's gonna suffer the same fate yea
i got something she can swallow
Does she have more than 1 facial expression?
she aint even that pretty. but she has this weird look that is uniq which makes her attractive.
Why didn't he just shoot him in the hand or something? Was this the most preventable death in the entire series?
It's fitting that just as the rest of the season the only redeeming part of the finale was Munch
holy shit
It's stupid. What does he do the other days of the week?
a man vs. another man, which man wins
-prep time
-no guns
-both men have a code (one each)
cutest skellington in the world honestly
So where's the connection with other Fargo? Or did I missed anything?
Good morning, sir. Have the biscuit.
It takes place in Minnesota
Geeee... So what should I watch now? There's no more show I'm gonna be expecting weekly for now until TWD comes out in Feb
>TWD is STILL going on
How the frick? Go watching TD.
The whole concept of
>hi, I'm a random beat cop you've never met before, can I join your team of highly trained soldier-cops on their incursion against a heavily armed and fortified enemy's territory? I am equipped only with my standard sidearm btw
>sure, sounds good
seemed and still seemed so fricking dumb to me
like it is 100% that guy's fault that Witt died, or maybe like 70% him, 30% Dot.
Dot has nothing to do with his death. His job was to locate and rescue Dot. He finished his mission. But for some fricking reason, he felt the need to chase after Roy, even though there was ZERO way for him to escape.
Yeah, Munch was just a regular bad guy in episode 1. Then he became supernatural.
Is it me or Ole Munch talks and behaves like a very different character in the first episode?
>"Shut the frick up already"
>"There's a 38 in the glove box"
>"And you- don't have any funny ideas"
And then later on its all "The man is grateful" or "Tiger this", "tiger that", it's so strange.
I just rewatched his scenes and... sorta? He still talked in the third person and very slowly. I'll chalk it up to him needing to communicate commands effectively and not wanting to sound cryptic.
>Slow as frick season
>Slow as frick ending
>All characters pretty much one-dimensional
>No Mafia even
APOLOGIZE TO SEASON 4 NOW
Season 4 was such a piece of shit, it makes a mediocre season 5 a masterpiece in comparison.
Not happening. Season 4 is irredeemable.
This season was on par with the abortion that was S4 in its shitiness, and I'm not even sure what's worse: the relentless wading through shit that was S4 or the fact that S5 started off strong and only then dived headfirst into a pool of shit
The writing for the characters was so bad, it's like they had no idea what to do with most of them or how to use them in the story. What do trooper Farr and the cop lady accomplish exactly? Roy is the worst Fargo villain on memory and not even Hamm can redeem the character with his performance, he just makes one stupid (unjustified in-universe) decision after the other (let me just kill my FIL militia leader in the middle of the siege). Munch starts off very promising, but is completely wasted in episodes 4 to 9. The only main characters that were adequately written were Dot and Gator
I can't believe I was hyped for this season, only thing now on the horizon to look forward to is HOTD S2
>What do trooper Farr and the cop lady accomplish exactly?
Nothing. Fricking nothing! Whit seems to have a purpose in episode 1 when Dot saves his life, and then he spends the rest of the show recovering from his wound and driving around being chased away by people who don't want to talk to him. I don't know why he's even a main character when he's supporting at best. Meanwhile Indira is more present in the show but just as useless, she arrests Dot at the start (big deal) and shows up when she disappears, then she spends the rest of the time bouncing between being as unwanted a presence as Whit and having to deal with her dumb c**t husband. Then what, she criticizes JJL once and that's an adequate interview to lead - not join, lead - her security team? I hate it. They're both such fricking nothings especially when compared to a Solverson or Gloria Burgle. Margie Gunderson in the movie was pregnant and made a better detective than these two dull dolts.
>They're both such fricking nothings especially when compared to a Solverson or Gloria Burgle
Damn I was about to chime in and say that putting Burgle above the S5 cops is too far but actually even though Burgle achieves nothing she at least is witness to the events of S3 and connects it all together for the benefit of the audience (aka MNSKY).
Shit anon you're right they're fricking terrible this season. Total nothing, even compared to a character who is written implicitly to DO NOTHING.
>tfw no series with JUST Mike Milligan and the Kitchen Brothers
With a dash of Joe Bulo and his very nice hair?
>Now that truly would be a great idea. But I promised the boy's wives I'd have them home for supper.
Gator was such wasted untapped potential. I was hoping we'd get a shot of him without his eyes also. But of course not.
I don't get it. What's the takeaway here? Don't beat your wives or the big bad government will come in to blow your house down? How does that jive with the two cops being completely useless or the FBI couple being ineffectual all season? We were supposed to be happy the billionaire b***h was better at manipulating a corrupt system than some nobody sheriff? It all felt like a huge simplistic downgrade compared to what we got with Varga. This was easily the worst season of Fargo and it ruined any hype I had for the Alien show.
Dot forgiving Munch was okay though. It might've played better if it happened earlier in the show, but then again, the entire season would've been much better without Munch sucking up all the other side character's development.
rip funny black man cop
>beloved brotha
what the FRICK THEY DID THIS FELLA DIRTY
>His mom came and brought his six sisters
>No wonder he was so nice
They couldn't even let the character have his heroic death without leveraging it
Dot and Wayne better get their moronic adoptee some braces. That smile after biscuit nirvana… Woof.
I really liked this season. I would give it an 8/10. I don't get the woman good/men bad complaint as there are good men and bad women in this season. I liked the very end with the weird dude at dinner. I thought the 8th and 9th episodes dragged a bit too much. If the show was 1.5 - 2 episodes shorter, it would have been better. But overall a good season
This season was great. You guys are gay.
>This season was great. You guys are gay.
season 2 was great. this was just ok
2 was the best but all of the seasons except 4 were great imo.
Based
Cinemaphile is where Redditors come to be contrarian and say the N word without getting banned.
Just finished watching this.
Dumbest death on the show so far.
>ranch is raided by the army, FBI, and the state police
>guy is injured, hobbling, literally nowhere to run
>the premise is pretty much secured, no way of escape
>"yeah, lemme fricking chase after him"
>"nah, I'm not going to shoot the injured guy who can barely move in the legs or anything to disable him"
Fricking moronic. It's like show realized that not enough people have died, so they just had to find people to kill off at the end.
>shoot a guy in the legs to disable him
It appears you are also moronic
There's no need to shoot centre of mass. He can barely fricking move. Don't be moronic.
>B-B-B-B-BUT
Shooting someone in the leg to incapacitate them is likely to kill them anyway, and you are more likely to miss. If you shoot, you shoot to kill and that's it. The Angolan 2-Step is the best way
The best way was to rape him before they took his bussy virginity in prison.
i'm just an anon in basement without any knowledge, so i might be wrong, but i don't really think those are the procedures that american police officers are taught
american police officers are taught to do whatever the frick they want and let the unions sort it out when they get in trouble.
The problem (imo) isnt that he dies, it's that he dies in such a moronic way.
>Roy is walking around like nothing after getting blasted
>Cop can't hear a man who's shot in the chest waiting in lure
>moronic flickering lights
>Gets stabbed before he pulls the trigger
There GOTTA be a better way to write that scene. Just terrible writing.
>gets shot in the belly
>lying on the porch
>good guys vs bad guys shootout
>camera pants to where Roy was supposed to be
>be disappeared
>he teleported through the entire gunfight and arrived at the bunker which leads to...?
>here's some flowers, dead black cop
>haha btw remember that random guy I got tortured and murdered by mistake? he was rude so no flowers for his grave
Just watched the episode, what a terrible finale. Honestly the show dropped hard in quality after ep 1-4. Episode 7 was a sleeping pill.
If they ever make a S6, I hope they do a better job with the characters. We learned literally nothing about Witt Farr. Okay, he's a state trooper, who used to be in the army. Learned nothing about him except at the end where he has 6 sisters.
Native cop's husband was a piece of shit. That's all that there was to him
Car salesman recovered his memories but is still slow talking?
No resolution to finding the pirate lawyer's corpse and going to visit him at the cemetery? He just dies, and that's it?
The whole season had so many episodes, but there was NOTHING to fill it with. Take, for example, the last episode. The shootout were 2 second clips spliced together, ending in less than a minute. The rest of the show was people talking slowly.
Dot, episode 1: "My head hurts, let's not have sex"
Dot, episode 10: "Maybe just ONE sister"
Do you think Wayne got to frick dot and put a baby in her?
Did anybody else get weirded out with how quickly the house for fixed? The entire S5 took place over the spam of 1 week, from late October to early November.
The house got fricking burnt down, or at the very least, the 2nd floor, for half of the house. But now it's all of a sudden, magically fixed? Even with Lorraine's resources, it shouldn't be fixed that quickly, not like Wayne would've accepted it either way.
And what happened to the guns Dot ordered? It should've arrived at the same time she arrived back home.
Maybe it's a new house? Lorraine is a billionaire so it's not like she couldn't afford to just buy them a new one.
Nope, it's the same house when Dot came back to Lorraine walking out giving her a hug. Entire house was fixed.
