Fargo
Has anyone been watching this new series of FX? Only two episodes, but very good.
It's loosely based on the 1996 Coen brother's movie (very loosely). Stars Billy Bob Thornton, who's really good in it.

She was the girl who was shot by the bad guy after her car flipped upside down. She had been a caterer for the film's cast & crew and the director put her in there on a whim. (Michelle LeDoux)AdamA wrote: If you check it out, let me know what you think. What part did your friend have?

Re: Fargo
I think it was episode 1 that showed a special on White Russians, the Dude's drink of choice.
The pig's blood IN 3 was from Chigurh's (spelling?) butcher shop.
There are also a lot of fish in this show. I didn't notice anything beyond the poster in the basement at first, but once it was pointed out to me...fish everywhere!

I think it's going to be a 10 episode miniseries, so you shouldn't have to wait much longer.MediumTex wrote: I will wait until there are more episodes out there and I can watch them back to back.
