Reagan was THE LAST president this country had. Of course these idiots IGNORE that fact. And look at what he accomplished — and in his case, who cares HOW he did it.

Losers can never see the good in anything. RINOs and DemocRats.

And a bunch of folks here couldn't be bothered to defend Reagan against BOR's smear, simply because George Will(RINO) was defending Reagan.

The same show did a pretty good job of slamming Jimmah Cahtah and his handling of the economy a couple of weeks ago.

Having actually WATCHED Fargo season 2, it’s actually quite good.

The Reagan scene was at the beginning of the 1st episode in a flashback to a Western being filmed in the area in the 50’s.

There hasn’t been anything else with him in it since.

liberals know their time in office may be numbered and so we’re going to see them all launching nasty attacks as they throw their fits when they lose hteir seats and lose viewers because of their idiotic political agendas in their TV shows and movies

Prepare yourself for massive whining by the left when they lose the next couple of elections

I didn't see it as a smear on Reagan at all. Most of his depiction on last night's episode was of him giving his "Shining Light on the Hill " speech which was positive. The scene in the bathroom was more about the deputy than Reagan. I thought it was well done.

I prefer to look at these shows as just entertainment and not a political message. It's a scripted, make-believe TV show for entertainment. It's not real life, no matter what they try to claim at the beginning about it being a true story. One can be entertained without taking literally what is said or how some actor depicts a real person. It's not real life.

I enjoy the heck out of Fargo because it's so different. It pretty accurately depicts society in the 70s and it is so different than the tiresome vampire, zombie and alien stuff that pervades TV and movies nowadays. It's violent and bloody but at the same time, it's also funny and campy. A dark comedy typical of the Coen Brothers. One has to take everything with a grain of salt and not take too seriously what you see on TV or in the movies. It's written for effect. I can't wait for the next episode every week.

I’ll stick to my Gilligan’s Island reruns. I do not watch any episodic drama show on any network for about 20 years now.

I think BOR’s killing books are a scam. I have actually read some of them. You read them, you learn absolutely nothing (except perhaps for some minor details) that you didn’t know before. Of course these books are mostly written and researched by BOR’s co-author. Yet because BOR has a huge cable audience BOR can promote the books ceaselessly on TV. BOR has a clever gig. He picks well known subjects, has his co-author do much of the actual work, then uses his TV show to promote the book. The reader learns nothing new.

Watched it, didn’t come away with “they’re smearing Reagan”.

Sounds kind of incomplete, to me. I am disappointed they didn’t work in the fact that he caused, facilitated and encouraged the spread of AIDS.

Shoddy Journalism!

I live in Fargo -
You want to hear a funny story about Fargo?

Our oldest daughter spent last summer interning in London. One day she got called into the big bosses office. He said he admired the fact that she was able to overcome being raised in such a violent city. I guess it says on the opening credits the events portrayed are based on "true" stories.

We laughed for two days.

Pandering to the lowest, the stooges.

When do they bring on the clowns in grease paint to pile out of a Mini-Cooper and whack each other with 2x4’s?

Yep! I like the show but I was offended by that. They had an actor who looked nothing like Reagan ... he had painted cheeks and they had him seeming to think the movies he played in were real and he couldn’t remember how they ended.

I did something similar in a Fourth of July pageant I wrote... which I had to stop and remember, but mine was gentle fun and I love Reagan.

If I were the right sort of person I would boycott the show.
