Default Netflix Shows - Fargo?

I just finished watching the Ozarks, already watched Better Call Saul and Breaking Bad. Has anyone watched Fargo? Does it compare to those other three shows?

I've enjoyed Ozark, but thought Fargo, especially season 3, was even better. Darker and quirkier with understated but unmistakeable commentary on how truth can be manipulated and the destructive results. You might also enjoy True Detective, especially season 1.

Id rate the Fargo series as one of the best I've seen. If you liked the film, you'll enjoy the series.

I thought the Fargo series was fantastic and did justice to the original movie.
Billy Bob Thornton is brilliant!

Sure did and really liked them all.

I just googled Fargo season 4 and got - Fargo season 4 is set to premiere April 19 on FX.

Hope it makes it's way down here then too!

A favorite. I also think the third season is the best of them, outclasses the original film in every way, as does the first; season 2 is about on par with the movie IMO.

lol, Will do, Larry.

I'm also contemplating rewatching Fringe. I have it on DVD and it was an amazing series. But I think I'll give Fargo a chance first. Anyone ever watch Fringe? It was on 10 years ago. Kind of a X-files show without aliens.
