I feel like a lot of fans were torn on that, too.

Probably 1-2-3 for me, although I'd love to rewatch and see if that would change.

I wast really torn, it was more like ¨ oh, yeah that thing¨...they hinted about it and then kinda forgot about it until that moment. To be honest i thought the story was better than that.

That's what I mean. Fans either really loved it or really thought the story was better without it.

I just realized it was the actor who plays Varga who does the voice if the Shame Wizard on Big Mouth. I knew he sounded familiar.

Having not seen the third season of Fargo nor any of Big Mouth, the above sentence is hilarious to me.

It gets a little convoluted in Season 2 but it has such a big heart and is hilarious.

Great performances, and the tone is somewhere between S1 and S2, but the plot is a little meandering without much payoff. They really made me care for a couple of characters and then not do anything super interesting with them.
Yeah. It was frustrating. I liked s3 for the most part, but there were flaws that kept taking me out of it. I was hoping the characters would develop in some way, but they didn't.

It also felt mean spirited to me or something. I don't know...tonally it just felt off.
