There was no diner, there was no freak accident in the parking lot.
Dot fell asleep behind the wheel while driving, and hit a semi. All of the diner/pancakes/chicken picatta/Lindas was a dream when she fell asleep on the road.

I very briefly mistook that headline as being about Money Plane and was excited to hear about the further adventures of Adam Copeland and Kelsey Grammer. Oh well.

It feels like they’re going for the same appeal as something like the Parker series, where no matter how objectively bad a person someone is, they’re still a lot of fun to watch if they’re really, really good at what they do. Except in this case, he’s apparently terrible at being a thief and completely relying on the…

Not to mention Hamilton was fully supportive of the idea of America having a monarch, or enlightened despot.  His economic policies were brilliant, but thank goodness cooler heads shut down his more extreme notions for the new nation.

I thought he was completely miscast in Batman Begins when it was first announced, but then I saw the movie and he was perfect.

The remarkable thing about his performances is that you can easily recall them just from looking at the film title.

| That seemed like the MCU’s one big opportunity to acknowledge that What If…? was canon

The whole point of the scene is that the heroes of this particular universe are all condescending pricks, which leads to them all getting easily killed. It’s not saying anything about the main versions of any of them.

I had the same thought. It would have worked better if the family’s credit was right on the borderline—something where a supervisor needs to give the thumbs up or down.

Questions: why did the salesman come to Wayne’s door? There’s a family here who can’t afford to buy the car - why does he bring that information to Wayne? What solution might non-electrocuted Wayne have offered? When the actor playing the salesman asks the director what his motivation is in this scene, what answer…

Heck, when the black employee says he knows what joke Brent is telling, Brent backtracks and shames the employee for making the joke. Brent helps steal Tim’s shoes and throw them on a pub. He witnesses his employees pantsing another employee and starts cackling “tickle him! Tickle him!”

The whole thing has a feeling of making shit up as they go along. If you told me they’re filming each ep week-to-week as it’s being aired, I’d believe you. Like, if you said they’re out there right now typing up ep 8's script to shoot over the weekend...yeah. It’s all very…

IMO the reason Dot doesn’t confide in the authorities directly is because she clearly doesn’t trust them as a whole. How could she when her abuser is a sheriff who blatently abuses his power yet faces little to no consequences for it? A sheriff who was able to almost immediately locate her the moment she got booked in…

I find it interesting that Dot suggests Gator still has some good in him; it makes me wonder if the show will try some kind of redemption for him, which would frankly be a tall order considering how loathsome a character he’s been so far. I do get the idea that he’s a product of Roy’s upbringing, but he’s still made…

Yeah, seeing as how ‘Fargo’ has already given us a UFO, the judgement of God, and a centuries old sin eater, an idyllic community of battered women using puppet justice isn’t even close to being too weird to be real.

The accident was WAY over the top, like watching an opening scene in a post-apocalypse. A random semi-truck barreling into a parked car could be a metaphor for the writing, which I find myself having issues with yet again this week.

It suddenly came to me how we know that “Linda” is dead. Roy has obsessed over Dot leaving him for years. No one leaves Roy. So why no similar obsession & search for Linda? Because he killed her long ago.

I’m sorry; all I could think of during the Puppet Show was “You’re making him weep but you, yourself, are not weeping! DON’T EVER FUCK WITH YOUR AUDIENCE.”

Honestly, I’ve never really liked it when this series gets too far up its own arse with the fantasy stuff, and this episode was no exception. I know it’s a bit of a Noah Hawley thing (see also: Legion), but I prefer these stories when they’re at least somewhat grounded.

It’s Fargo, so I wasn’t thinking dream sequence at all, despite the hints.
