    What did you think of FARGO Season 4? Still a huge fan of season 1, but damn I loved Jessie Buckley's performance as Oraetta Mayflower! 🌸

      Great wrap up. I would just push back on Orietta's Background. She wasn't just a sick girl who's Mother had to trade sex for healthcare (Although that's coming soon to a State near you). She was a Victim on Munchausen's by Proxy. She even talked about the "Special Juice" her mother made her drink after she had sex with Josto the 2nd time (That they showed). So the Mother was making her sick on purpose for all the reason the condition exists for. This lead her to be an Angel of Death as an adult. If you implied that, I missed it.

      Season 4 was fantastic, as good as Seasons 1 and 2. Different, for sure, but the world is different. Really fun and tight, and the callbacks to Season 2 were amazing. I guess I should've known when I heard Rabbi's last name, but when it was revealed, I was totally shocked. Didn't pick up on Brad Garrett until you mentioned. it.

    This season actually got so much callbacks to previous seasons, obviously from plot to characters, it's pretty much a prequel to season 2, but also, the way Josto "accidentally ordered Oraetta to kill his father is very similar to how Lester ordered Malvo to kill his bully in season 1, also, the way Loy happily watched over his family moments before his killing is very similar to how Emmet Stussy's death in season 3, as he looked at his family photo right before Wes Wrench shot him

      I also was a bit disappointed with how it ended for Josto. I kept waiting for him to tell Mayflower he loved her once more, but he "threw her under the bus" during Ebal's inquisition at the Italians' headquarters, argued with her on the drive to their execution, and didn't even ask to hold her in his arms as his "last request." Josto also told Joe Bulo, "You don't have to do this." Reminded me of "No Country for Old Men."

    I know this in analysis of the ending but I have a couple theories, and I would like to know if anyone else agrees. First is the episode where jasto tells Oraetta that while he was in the care of the father Milligan he was molested by him. I wonder if that is what led Big Milligan to trade Rabi twice as he had grown older by the second trade and he no longer found him as attractive as his younger brother? This kind of sexual abuse of Rabi by his father would also explain why he was so eager to betray his father and ultimately kill him without hesitation.
    The second I heard it said in this video that Oraetta had a very protective mother that would trade sexual favors with drs to get care for her child that was constanty sick with mysterious illnesses. But what I think she is describing is a mother with munchausen by proxy as she was constantly providing Oraetta with "special tonics" and then flirt with the drs when she fell ill. This would also explain why Oraetta loved poisoning others so much as an adult, as it would have been something that she had spent her whole childhood being the victim of.

    Finally went back and watched this season, finished it last night and holy hell what a ride it was! The most bombastic of seasons in this series so far, but rightfully so as it all reveals itself to be something akin to an American Tall Tale. Love the way they sprinkled in the tale of Goldilocks as it relates to Satchel's decision to come back home and all the nods to The Wizard of Oz in the episode East/West. The themes of this season are so rich and I feel this one in particular really highlights the logic as to why the "This is a true story..." text appears at the beginning of each episode. It's all a history report through Ethelrida's lense. Brilliant season that demands reevaluation.

  • @joshs4441

    This is also the only season that didn't have a "Hero Cop". Throughout the Seasons and the movie, we usually follow a character who is a cop that is determined to solve the murders going on throughout each story. Season 4 didn't have one, but I guess Ethel was the "Hero Cop" of this story.

      @ThePopTartKids Před 3 lety +15

      I think the fact that they had the hero cop (mormon trooper) fail this time, while allowing Ethel to succeed as the protagonist, suggests that they tried to portray the message that you don’t need to be a cop to fight evil and choose goodness. You can be a regular joe and still fight evil and win.

      She didn't have privilege; she and Ethedrida were the same person except for color. How many times did she feel helpless at the hands of her mother. Where was her father? She talked about the special juice her mother gave her. Also, you know she finally killed her mother. When Oraetta tells Ethedrida, "How does it feel to be so sure you're right and to know nobody cares?" She could be talking about herself? How many times did Oraette know she was right and the doctors were wrong before she snapped and became the Angel of Death?
      This season chose to focus on race rather than class or character, which is too bad because it was an election year. I get it; it is a creative choice, but it is sad. Oraette envies Ethedrida because she has all the things Oraette never had as a child. Ethedrida has loving parents and has positive reinforcement. Oraette is bitter because of her mother's treatment. She admires Ethedrida's self-confidence and hates she will not be labeled by the world. I also do not think the "ghost" is evil; he was like Jacob Marley. He wears the chains forged in life. He protected the Smuntnee's. Now, Oraette will wear the chains she forged in life, and she will have to protect somebody.

    I think you almost got it right with Satchel but i think just like Rabbi he resented his father for putting him up as bait thats why he let him get killed without alarming his mother and older brother i feel like he felt Rabbi was more of a father then Loy and thats why he chose to take Milligans last name as his moniker The Bigger Irony Is Mike/Satchel ends up as a accounting manager something that Loy tried to start doing with his credit card idea that was stolen

      @@undergroundlady5892 None of the seasons are perfect. But to be honest, this was my least favorite season. This season was crippled by the current COVID pandemic (I think they had to make several adjustments in shooting) and being a bit overstuffed with characters, even the quirky ones. It also seemed to be a bit of a vanity project at times as well. For instance, the East West Episode was a long episode, but didn't really drive the narrative. I mention the length because it seems like the final two episodes are kind of did a yada yada through everything. The last episode was even shorter than it appeared. There were lots of slow motion segments that ate away some of the spare 39 minutes, which included credits.
      The best Fargo was the original movie, in my opinion. But don't feel confused about this season. I think there were a lot of factors that affected the season.

    I disagree with your interpretation of the ghost. To me, Ethelrida's family has always misinterpreted the ghost as a haunting, but I think they haunt the ghost. In life, he was a slave master that terrorized Ethelrida's ancestors to the point that he got himself strangled by one of them - and the way the story is told, he deserved it. I think being tethered to their family is his spirit's punishment and he's cursed with watching out for them for eternity. The problem is that he's a hideous ghost and frightens the hell out of anyone that sees him, so the family doesn't understand that it's actually a benevolent presence (he never hurts them, just scares them). With that in mind, it doesn't make sense that the ghost has latched onto Oraetta, who is only seconds away from dying when we see his reflection in the car window. It's the show letting us know that he did his job. After all, the Pearl-Smutneys are the only family to come out of this story without one of them dying.

    The Fargo series is something I enjoy like a glass of good wine. I will never binge the series. The elements of Fargo that bring me joy is the Fargo ambiance, the cadence of the story, the Fargo dialogue and accents, that one stone cold killer, that one honest courageos person, the cowards, the innocent bystanders, and of course snow scenes. In Fargo, the personalities are intense and fascinating. These elements are more important than the plot itself, but thats just me. Season 4 is the least Fargo in my view. Basically, I enjoyed it as a non-fargo season. However, i was captivated and watched one episode at a time without binging. Loved the performace of Chris Rock and Jesie Buckley. ... I truly hope they make season 5 and bring back the Fargo palette of colors.

      I feel like they did ok, based only on the fact that Mike Milligan clearly received some form of higher education after Loy died. Not that schooling is everything, but his depth of knowledge was extensive. Leads me to believe that his life went well enough for a while that he could pursue some level of academics, either structured or self-learned. Hence all of his quotes.

      My guess would be that Opal Rackley took over the outfit and provided for Buel and the kids, and kept the deal with Ebal, who seemed to intent to keep Cannon Limited as allies-vassals. But I suppose that without Loy's accute sense of business, they slowly lost their organization and eventually fully became integrated in the Kansas City Mafia.

    Timothy Olyphant’s character was very interesting because technically he was pretty much the only good guy this season. I mean I know he was a racist and on a personal level not a great person, but he wasn’t actually a crooked cop or anything. He was the only person who followed the rules. He didn’t really do anything wrong and was principled enough that he didn’t even kill the outlaw girls when he easily could have. Any other show that character would have been the protagonist of the season, but here he wasn’t. Crazy what perspective can do to a story.
    My favorite character was probably Milligan though. He had such an impact on the kid he took his name, he was his true father. I was sad to see him die.

Thus able to organize all over the country. Which for African Americans, as Josto said..."for you, all they see is the crime." Thus Loy could not compete with the Italians and had to just give up half his take. This is a very real life part of this story.

    There is a logic gap in the final episode. There is no way Ethelrida could've known Oraetta killed the patriarch on Josto's order. She just knows Oraetta as a serial killer who had a God complex. It would take a gigantic leap to logic to make that connection and then on top of that go to Loy to bargain for her house back based on conjecture without proof, and yet Loy bought it and got the Italian mob to buy the theory too without proof once again.
