	Media	Author	Review
		Brian Lowry Variety	"If the first series deftly approximated the spirit of its movie namesake, this one works in a cheeky Quentin Tarantino vibe, with results as refreshing and bracing as the region’s abundant snow."
		Jeff Jensen Entertainment Weekly	"Showrunner Noah Hawley and his collaborators employ a gamut of imaginative and mischievous strategies to create an allegory for a fragmenting and fogged culture at an ideological crossroads (...) The season gains more complexity and considerable power."
		David Wiegand SFGATE	"Hawley’s writing is vivid, sardonic, smart, and brilliantly deadpan (...) His characterizations are deft, nicely nuanced and compelling, offering more than enough for the actors to work with."
		Tim Goodman The Hollywood Reporter	"Writing, acting, directing, music--combining to make a very riveting and entertaining dark comedy spectacle."
		Robert Bianco USA Today	"Through scene after scene, 'Fargo' crackles with mordant wit and sustained tension. And yet, wisely, Hawley always finds a way to remind us of what's at risk (...) The cast is spectacular. (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of four)"
		Rob Sheffield Rolling Stone	"With its deep cast and eccentric rhythms, 'Fargo' sketches out a fascinating portrait of America at the crossroads."
		Liz Shannon Miller IndieWire	"The most important thing (...) is that 'Fargo' remains a risk-taker. (...) it's a show that is having fun, while also being real about the costs of having fun, while living outside the law."
		Matt Zoller Seitz Vulture	"Season two is one of the better TV dramas of an already excellent year, and that series creator Noah Hawley, his filmmaking team, and his cast have perfected what was already a promising spinoff of the Coen Brothers’ 1996 classic."
