I understand your questioning. I think this series was about existential and metaphysical ideas and events. Yet the ending, touching as it was, was more like the ending to a romantic drama. What would have seemed more appropriate is to have the finale focus on our journeys through life, not knowing what becomes of

Actually we do. Nora exclaimed she does not lie in one of her responses to the doctors. She also left Kevin at the wedding, stating that what he was saying was not the truth. Also, they both experienced healing during their time apart, resulting in a more healed relationship where they are not hiding from each

I agree. And Lost had a lot of philosophical references to contemplate on. I'm okay with Leftovers finale but recently binged Lost on Netflix again, and kept wishing it would never end. Can't say I feel the same about Leftovers.

What convinces me that she did cross over is that, at the wedding, she got angry at Kevin for not telling the truth. Don't think she would then turn around and lie to him about crossing over. Also, here's a very good interview with Lindelof about the finale: http://www.ign.com/articles…

YES YES YES

There you go. Couldn't have said it better.

And so far he hasn't grabbed anyone's genitals!

That's insulting Varga, who possesses at least a modicum of intelligence.

As an aside, In my twenties I lived in Old Town and worked at Northwestern U. I had a bumper sticker on my car that read: Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you!

I don't know where to begin but the entire review suggests the writer missed the entire point. Everything in this film is metaphorical, corresponding to elements of the black experience in our culture. The writer appears to be looking at everything literally. For example, Chris isn't paranoid, but is certainly

Thanks for your thoughtful comments. Interesting!

Okay—sorry. Guess I felt that the writing was superb in this film, and I wanted to let you know about a great film. I intensely disagree with the review you sent, in almost every way. But I get it. Insufficient relevance.

Thanks for having the courage to state what many of us think about this 3rd season. Whenever there are random, nonsensical events occurring, humans will invariably read into them depth that may not be there. And then proclaim these events to be evidence of brilliance and profound meaning! And even begin to confer

Since you mentioned writing, I would like to mention an incredible film I just watched: Get Out, a dark satire on racial hypocrisy—but like no other you've seen. Rotten Tomatoes gives it 99% and it truly deserves it. Read a few of the critics' reviews to get an idea of its depth. All I can say is WOW.

Well, okay. I guess one of the reasons I like Fargo is that it doesn't follow one particular formula, although there are villains in each who throw wrenches into the mix. And Leftovers is another example of non-formulaic story telling. If I were to adopt a belief that it should be a particular type of story, i

Here's the scenario: despite Emmit's weak objections, Varga, Yuri and Meemo begin to head down a long hallway and right before Emmit starts running after them, he leans into the receptionist and says "call Sy". By the time Sy shows up, they are wheeling the many boxes into what Varga refers to as "the boys' new

Yes! But he couldn't do a 180 with his lack of integrity, dignity, intelligence, and maturity. My 4th grade nephew sounds more mature than he does. Example: "the Germans are bad—very bad", says Dump. Wow!

Au contraire mon ami! I have Comcast and went to On Demand to pull up the scene where Varga and his "assistants" show up in the lobby, wheeling in all their boxes. I guessed at the 2nd Episode toward the end and went almost right to it at the 50 minute mark. God, I'm good! : ). Anyway, it is Emmit that is in his

Well…to say that Sy approved of them moving in, is a real stretch! Sy was overwhelmed by them from the get-go, being the type of character with a very narrow range of responses—namely fear and anxiety followed quickly by paralysis. Poor guy was in way over his head with Varga & company. (The writers should have

Oh Fargo friend—this not a normal company or the real world. This is Fargo-World. And the only time that the word, "foreknowledge" by Sy, came up is in a very early conversation about what was in the truck (sex slaves?). Emmit was going to check it out, and Sy warned him not to. Also, Emmit's marital crisis came
