Fargo is the kind of show that creates a world for its story that feels honest even as it incorporates everything from the satirical to the bizarre, across all its seasons. The series isn’t exactly subtle, it never feels like creator Noah Hawley has lost control of the storytelling. It’s methodically over-the-top. The audience is on a roller coaster, but they can feel the quality of the engineering keeping them on the tracks. It works because of Hawley’s signature energy with a game cast and impressively insightful art direction. Every season feels nearly as strong as any previous installment. It’s absolutely worth the trip back to Minnesota.
