This is either going to be mind blowingly good or just okay.

Noah Hawley is amazing but I've come to accept that success and talent in one genre doesn't mean it'll transfer to others.

@ComicsBornAndBred - I agree.....but the last two seasons of Fargo have been short of amazing IMO.

@JoeMomma29 - Fargo is PERFECT TV imo. Its flawless storytelling. I love season one better than 2 though. 2 was still great.

Season one was some of the BEST tv I've ever watched.

@ComicsBornAndBred - Agree! Season one was just top notch, though season two was just brutal.

I am curious what the story line will be for season three.
