Ever read "The Hunting of the Snark", by the by?

I really can't see Peggy sacrificing her well-organised magazines to get rid of one thug, just after she got them just the way she likes 'em, too.

I thought we were solely doing this body count to make sure they could be stacked up to the second floor, as Lou promised, right?

In last week's ep. he was running because he saw Peggy was right, and having lost the shop and let down his boss he had no real stake left in Luverne. In this one, he just needed to find Peggy and help her.

It only now occurs to me that Hawley has found a sneaky way to acknowledge the weird passive-aggressive hatred of Asians that exists in many of the Coen Bros. movies. Last year he deliberately inverted it by making the one prominent Asian-American character a sympathetic victim of Lester's machinations, rather than a…

Oh bravo, well put. I had not considered that in my own analysis of the Jabberwocky reference, below: http://www.avclub.com/tvclu…

A pity. I thought he'd eventually recover and chastise the hell out of his eldest boy for being such a nitwit.

You specifically, orrrrr…?

I think it was solidified by the line (in S1) that Sioux Falls was something like he'd never seen, before or since. You'd think the works of Sholwater, Grimsrud and Lundergard would stick in the memory.

It was pretty badass the way she grabbed Dodd's gigantic phallic compensation and used it on him.

Probably the same significance to a cop named "Lou" appearing in the original Fargo film. There's only so many names in the world.

Did anyone else get chills at the sleigh bells at the beginning? I remember how clever it felt in retrospect that they took a small incidental part of the Fargo film theme and made specific to Lorne Malvo - but now it seems more like a kind of gentle siren, sounding off before bloodshed and chaos.

See, I thought Hank was suffering from a head injury, and seeing empty cars but hearing no gunshots or sound of a struggle, assumed that things were still in swing, and rather than get killed he'd better go get backup.

"When I use a word,' Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, 'it means just what I choose it to mean — neither more nor less."
"The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things."
"The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master— that's all."

Eh, cut him some slack. It's easy to get one or two words mixed up when you're reciting from memory.

The word has a connection with misinformation, as well - the Rhinoceros has often been a symbol of ideas miscommunicated between cultures. In "The Thousand and One Nights", Sinbad the Sailor claims that their horns grow into the figures of men, who converse with one another; and it has sometimes been claimed that they…

You may also have spotted the steel drums version of "The Ode to Joy" in Fargo S1 when Lester cleans up his house at last - echoing the banjo version from "Raising Arizona".

The key aspect of Lewis Carroll's poem "Jabberwocky" was the key aspect of much of the poetry Carroll wrote in the Alice books - as a means of parodying the hymns and poems which his child audience would learn by rote in school. In "You Are Old, Father William", rather than through prayer and penitence, Father William…

I wonder if every future series will solidify it as a tradition to make the character with blood on his hands tell the police "I'm the victim here".

Here's a thing: how often now have we seen the FARGO logo over the Gerhardt house, or (in that one flashback) their car? Implies an awful lot about property and territory, I'm thinkin'.
