Halfway through Fargo season 5 and it's yet to really click with me.
Great show. There is a really intense episode towards the end.VinylGuy wrote:Started Devs. its alright so far.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.
first two were good but im a little on the fence with these mystery type of shows with high concepts and crazy millionaires. Probably because it kinda reminded me of ¨A Murder at the End of the World¨, which i really hated it.E.H. Ruddock wrote:Great show.

I don't know I've been wondering if it's just me and i'd enjoy it more at a different time. I can't pinpoint any reason why that would be though.tragabigzanda wrote:oh wtf lennylennytheweedwhacker wrote:Halfway through Fargo season 5 and it's yet to really click with me.

Just watched the first two episodes of Barry. I thought it would feel a little more dark. Despite the murders I thought it had some odd charm. I feel like i'm going to fly through this series and be sad.
I'm probably just desensitized to violence and murder due to my career.tommy wrote:lennytheweedwhacker wrote:Thoroughly enjoyed the back half of Fargo season 5.

Barry is excellent and does get quite dark by the end.
