“It’s just a flying saucer, Ed. We gotta go.”

If you understand the quote in the title, then you are a fan of "Fargo" and saw that WILD episode last night. Perhaps one of the most UNUSUAL episodes in the history of television. I would like to hear from others who watched last night episode for your impressions.

This iteration of Fargo is wildly creative and totally unhinged. I can only wonder how they can follow up after this series.

It was a shocker, but then I reasoned the saucer was just there to get some lefse Not finding any, they left.

Hell of a shootout at the hotel but I wanted to shoot the North Dakota cops myself.

That’s what I’m saying. I discovered first hand that detectives, DAs etc sometimes suspect that a defendant is guilty of murder in an obvious self-defense death simply because their statement was made in a calm, collected and logical manner.

been watching.. really love the show. I think stylistically and scriptwise, is the best thing on television. Every scene is beautiful... dialog is amazing. tense and exciting.

my only criticism is the music in last night’s episode. I felt it was very intrusive. and it was far less so in the less 5 episodes. that said, it’s delightful to have this music, played by real people, with great grooves and soul and melodies... it’s great to have it as a backdrop in a series on television.

honestly, I didn’t think anything could top last season, and this season has, in spades.

I am amazed by this... and my wife, who hates violence on television as been equally memorized.

dumb thing with the flying saucer.. but what the hell.. doesn’t negate the great things happening in this show.

It has been my experience that North Dakota police (State Patrol) are polite, professional, and when necessary, they can shoot quite well.

With rare exception, I have found the County Sheriffs and Deputies to be the same, and have had generally good experiences with most city police as well.

There is very little on television about the State that is accurate, with the exception of the weather.

I think it is brilliant. Bummed out, though, because I’ve been rooting for the Gerhardts to win.

I have very deep family from North Dakota.

Extraordinary degree of simplicity.

Truth, understood.

I think it is because the weather can kill you part of the year.

When you look at that, winter after winter, it puts things in perspective and brings you a mite closer to Almighty God.

“Color of the sky as far as I can see is coal grey.

Lift my head from the pillow and then fall again.
Shiver in my bones, just thinking about the weather.
Quiver in my lip as if I might cry.”

Naaah. It's the only place in the country where being in an all white neighborhood isn't about race. Hoar frost...

I have found beauty everywhere I go. You just have to look harder in some places.

I saw that on liveleak. I guess it proves two things:

1. New York has the best Pizza.

2. You can't shock a New Yorker, they've seen it all.

And we forgive and allow so much that is so seriously messed up.

Because we are guilty as well?

Maybe.

Maybe not.

This is what they use against us.

While we can say we know, we are or have done wrong, they tell us that we don’t know the difference between right and wrong because there is on difference according to them.
