It’s the season finale of Fargo Season 4, did Noah Hawley pull it off? The overall plot and the character of Munch gave this season a Grimm’s Fairy Tale feel. This was one of the best episodes of the season, Juno Temple gives a great performance and Roy is finally taken down. Hear Jim and A.Ron’s thoughts and your feedback as we sign off on this season of Fargo.  Bald Move Prestige The World We De...

The tides are turning on the newest episode of Fargo. Roy is fully a nightmare. We’re starting to feel sorry for Gator. Ole Munch walks off into the mist. And Dot’s true history comes to light. With the ending of the season in sight, Jim and A.Ron are wondering what is true and what is all a “dream”? Send your feedback to fargo@baldmove.com!

Jim is still down with covid so my buddy Ron Dawson (author of “Dungeons ‘n’ Durags” and host of podcast of the same name) joins me to break this episode down. Does Dorthy feel repressed guilt about the fate of Linda? Will Gator find redemption? Is Lorraine a villain? And what the hell does “Blanket” mean, anyway?! All this plus feedback including a fascinating email on David Graeber’s “Debt: The...

Just as Jim and A.Ron were getting back into the Fargo saddle, tragedy strikes! Jim has fallen ill and so A.Ron turns to Pete Peppers to help break down all the puppety action this episode. What does Dot’s dream escapades tell us about her inner conflict? What kind of unholy vengeance does Ole Munch have planned for the Tillmans? And holy hell, Gator is almost 30?!? We’ll get fully caught up with...

New year, more coverage! Jim and A.Ron are diving back into Fargo Season 5. Just like this podcast, this sixth episode of Fargo is a lesson in delayed gratification. Roy is becoming more of a person.

Noah Hawley is leaning heavily into the supernatural aspect. This episode is packed with references to history and lore. You might be saying, “Whoa now! That’s a lot of background information I don’t care to look up!” That’s ok because Jim and A.Ron did all the research for you. You’ll soon understand the sentence: A sin-eater finds a home.

Fargo comes to your small screen with a two episode premiere of season 5! Jim and A.Ron are here to take you back to the not-so-distant past of 2019 where dumb cops, supernatural entities and copious amounts of violence descend on a Midwestern town. This grim version of Home Alone didn’t pack laughs, but its potential for mayhem is tantalizing. Don’t forget to set your traps! Send your feedback to...

Fargo is coming back with a spin on the movie that started it all. This series is an anthology, so you can jump in here if you’re new! This season revamps Fargo (1996) and asks “What if…?” and changes some of the recognizable plot points to retell the iconic story. Showrunner Noah Hawley promises a funny season for this dramedy. Join Jim and A.Ron as they continue their coverage of this beloved, z...

Season four is in the bag, but we're not exactly in the bag for season four.

In this week's episode of Fargo, the drug war is heating up... wait, I think I've said that before. In fact, it's been heating up for at least half the season now. And while things have certainly progressed, with bodies in the streets and gang shootings in the papers, the ambition of this season's storytelling make it somehow feel like the war is still simmering away on the back burner with just a...

There's an ironic quality to the name of this episode, The Nadir, given that the previous two episodes were our least favorite of the season. This episode is a return to form with some excellent Raylan Gi-- er, Marshal Deafy scenes, a lot more action in the gang war, and trouble all around for nurse Mayflower.

Another connective episode that has been chopped and screwed from other episodes into its final form leaves us not dissatisfied, but not exactly blown away either. We hear good things about the remainder of the season though, so the pace should pick up from here on out. Join us for a discussion of the episode as well as some corrections and questions from the listeners. Join the discussion: Email ...

This week's episode feels a little disjointed, probably for good reason, and we decide to take the opportunity to get some things about this season of Fargo off our chests. It's not all gloom and doom though, as we also talk about the interesting plot developments and some of the things we enjoyed.

Season three has proven to be another polarizing season among the fan base, and for once, we’re on the sweet side of it!  We loved the ambiguity and economic and political themes this year, and thought the villain was one of the all time greats.  And quite a few more people last week agreed with us, but there are still a lot of people that hate it.  I don’t think I can move you from one camp to an...

FX’s Fargo season three draws to a close, with the finale episode, “Somebody to Love”.  In a dramatic twist, everyone who loved season two, which was everyone but Jim and I, absolutely hated this finale.  And yet, the only two people in the known universe that didn’t see season two as a triumph, which, again, us two, loved and liked it respectively.  What the darn tootin’ heck is going on here, an...
