Both are excellent. Skip season 1 of It's Always Sunny though, it's pretty terrible, it'll put you off watching it and you don't need it to enjoy the show going forwards. Season 2 is a significant increase in quality and where the show starts to find itself. Fargo is one of my favourites I think, though season 4 wasn't as good as the previous 3. Tremendous dialogue and performances. Quote
Factotum Posted April 21, 2023 Posted April 21, 2023 David Thewlis in Season 3 of FARGO is just utterly tremendous. Quote

At the time I remember a lot of people thought season 3 wasn't as good as the first two. I can understand the opinion, season 3 has significantly less action than the first two. However I actually think it's probably the best season. Gloria Burgle (played by the always excellent Carrie Coon) is a brilliantly sympathetic and admirable protagonist and David Thewliss puts in an all time performance as VM Varga, who I think is one of the most fascinating, interesting and original villains I've seen in any story that I can think of. The themes running throughout bubbling under the surface of the main story had me absolutely hooked. Quote
Factotum Posted April 21, 2023 Posted April 21, 2023 Agreed. 3 is up there with 1 on pure brilliance. Varga is genuinely unsettling. Quote

Tremendous dialogue and performances. I'd always recommend watching 1 episode of It's Always Sunny Series 1, just to get the characters going forwards. Quote
deathrey Posted April 21, 2023 Posted April 21, 2023 I went to watch the Always Sunny podcast recording on Sunday, they did a little best of with lots of clips. The one where Dee and Denise go on welfare was one of the clips, I think that one is from the first season and is a great episode Quote

You need Danny Devito for full enjoyment. Quote
deathrey Posted April 21, 2023 Posted April 21, 2023 Ahh fair enough. There is some excellent McPoyle-ness in the first series though Quote

Mr_Danger Posted April 21, 2023 Posted April 21, 2023 Martin Freeman was a tremendous villain tbf. Quote

Rob giving everyone an ocular pardon as well. I can't believe I missed it. Quote

If they come back (which I think they will) I highly recommend going, though getting tickets was hard, they sold out incredibly fast. Quote

Paid Members Hannibal Scorch Posted April 25, 2023 Paid Members Posted April 25, 2023 Episode 3 of Barry is an absolute belter. I have no idea how it’s going to end, but the twists and turns so far have been great. Quote
