“Beyond being a neat stylistic trick and an effect that would make Abel Gance proud, the use of split-screens in the first two episodes of Fargo Season 2 has the helpful narrative role of directly uniting the showโs disparate narrative elements.”
“The little side comments throughout โWaiting for Dutchโ keep the episode light on its feet, but never in a way which overwhelms the story or characters, making for a fantastic start to the season.”
“One assumes that C.K. wonโt spend the entire season finale depicting the further redemption of his protagonist, so itโs certainly conceivable that โThe Road: Part Twoโ will bring new dimensions to the arc. As of now, though, it doesnโt appear to offer much.”
“Given the time and care C.K. has been dedicating to the development of stories recently on Louie, the vignettes of โSleepoverโ almost feel like they all couldโve been the subject of their own episodes.”
“With such a focus on powerful women, I’m still not sure how The Americans will handle the case of Stan Beamon. Mentally weak or the smartest guy in the room?”
Two things happened in the penultimate episode of FX’s Sons of Anarchy that speak volumes about the lead character and the overall theme of the series. All the pieces are now in place for history to repeat itself.
Four episodes in, FOX’s Gracepoint continues to reel me in with outstanding visuals, excellent pacing and perhaps the best all-around cast on television.
