Fargo Talks Fargo

FX’s Fargo rocks another flashback. Charpie and Bill are still coming down off the crazy conspiracy show from last week. We find that religious symbolism and related topics are still running through the show. Advice of the week is to avoid using Chaz’s phone. Overall the story continues weaving the (Charlotte’s) web.

Kris Kerzman from the Arts Partnership joins us this week to do some hardcore conspiracy breakdown. We talk about frozen panties guy, deer, ice scrapers, and all sorts of religious theology mumbo jumbo. This is our most “gunman on the grassy knoll” theory show to date, but we think this is the deep catalog thought process about the show beyond accents and hotdishes. Or we could be totally wrong bu...

A quick take on Fargo Episode 3. Malvo continues his escapades of messing with people and being generally evil and funny at the same time (remind me never to wear a tie again). Then Charpie drops a bomb on Bill that he missed and the Hotdish takes a turn. Spoilers ahead. We can’t wait to talk at length about it tomorrow night. Ice Scraper!

Diane Miller joins us this week to talk about Episode 2 “The Rooster Prince” and we chat about the crummy cars driven by the bad guys. Diane also tells us about her experience interviewing FX Fargo writer, Noah Hawley. Bill has been staring at license plates too much and is working on a conspiracy theory he expects others to figure out for him. Diane is unsure of Alison Tolman’s portrayal of Molly...

Coming off the second episode, we respond to “Who Dead Next” as well as other quick topics on this episode of the Hotdish. We learn more about Lorne and how much of a sissy that we think Lester is being about a little hole in his hand. Molly is hot on the trail of something but new boss hog, Bill, is obviously keen on keeping the local peace. If you have recently bronzed, try to keep it off your e...

Greg Carlson joins the Fargo Talks Fargo show this week to talk about Episode 1 of Fargo. The panel dives into the episode title and waxes intellectual about what it all means. We break down scenes and discuss what is up with the deer in the trunk. Bits of Fargo (the movie) are spotted throughout the episode. Charpie loves the sound of ham being rubbed and questions if Rachel Ray would really give...

What the heck is a hotdish? It’s a casserole don’t ya’ know. Fargo Talks Fargo has decided to add a bit more cream of mushroom sauce to the mix. Our Hotdish episodes will be quick comments and wrap ups recorded the night that Fargo airs on FX. Check out this episode as Bill recaps the big premiere party in Fargo, ND at the historic Fargo Theatre. As it turns out, last week’s stabby comments were s...

Back for another preseason warm-up show, Bill and Charpie chat with John Lamb, the arts, entertainment, and pop culture writer for the Forum of Fargo-Moorhead . Some answers emerge about the giant wooden Marge statue at the Fargo Theatre but no one seems the recall the event. We discuss a few articles from our northern Canadian neighbors, Minnekota nice, Fargo gets called “stabby”, more trailer/ch...

Welcome to first episode of Fargo Talks Fargo with special guest Joe Riley of GrillingAddiction.com . This week the Fargo Talks Fargo crew talk about the trailers that have been released to date and Bill is unable to contain his excitement. We also chat about the movie, the midwest, and the new format of creating longer story lines that don’t wrap up with each episode. Charpie peppers the casserol...
