    Extremely disappointed in season 3, after loving the first two. I did not care about any of the characters. The story just dragged and the ending was beyond disappointment. Save yourself some time, and just re-watch season 1 or 2.

    Not even close to the previous two seasons , at times it drags and is boring beyond belief. The McGregor characters are not very interesting. Too bad as I loved the first two.

    I tried, I really did. But was not able to even finish this season. Now season 2 took me a while to get into -- but I understood what is required from the viewer & hung in there -- and it was fine, in the end. But S-3 just seemed like a pile of pretentious bull-doo, got so bored. Bored every episode, no feels for characters or story. Seemed like a case of the emperor has no clothes.

    Season 3 didn't live up to its promise at all. The great characters and great acting should have been enough to carry it with an adequate narrative, but a totally nonsensical plot, lots of ridiculous or superfluous scenes that made no sense and added up to absolutely nothing, and an unbelievably disappointing ending that ruined the entire season.

    Huge disappointment. Hard to follow the plot and the cast is much weaker in season 3. I loved the first two seasons and own the DVD's which I watch often. But this is never going to be on that level. The true test is what would the Coen brothers think? I would wager a pair of Jesse Plemmon's tighty whites that they would not like this current reincarnation.

    Not feeling it this season. Bring back Billy Bob and the interesting weirdos in Season One. These characters are depressing and it's hard to care about them. The lighting in most of the scenes is so dark I have to to turn all the lights off in the room and still can't make out what's going on. Sorry - I refuse to praise it like a lot of others.

    In this film you tell about Ukrainians, but in the second series the song "Kalinka" sounds - it's not Ukrainian, it's Russian! How can you make such ridiculous mistakes?

    One of the most retarded shows I have ever seen. The first season was rather nice, the second was worse and kind of boring, but this is just awful.

    From its dynamic female characters, to its willingness to turn dashing leading men like McGregor into far more fascinating warts and all character actors, to its exquisite (and frequently hilarious) montages about everyday Americana, Fargo's third season is thus far as strong as any of the sterling preceding tales in this snowed in noir universe.

    One man's bland is another's bliss, don't ya know. That's certainly the case with the third season of Noah Hawley's Fargo franchise, with its delicious recipe of quirky humanism and chilling, shocking violence unaltered by a year's hiatus. [1-14 May 2017, p.19]

    As always, however, the pleasures of Fargo derive from the variety of the characters and the clever wordplay they indulge in. ... Coon and Hawley quickly establish the distinctiveness of Gloria’s character: she’s not as polite as Allison Tolman’s Deputy Molly Solverson in season one, nor as tight-lipped serene as Patrick Wilson’s Trooper Lou Solverson in season two.
