Prize Closet · 11-13-2015, 05:27 PM

Still only on episode 2.

Season 1 was just so fantastic that it's hard to imagine it living up.

I like this season more so far I think. So much of the first season was Billy Bob's performance. More (in number) interesting characters this year.

Great episode. I could sit and drink beers with Karl all night.

Jabberwocky
BY LEWIS CARROLL
’Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

“Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!”

He took his vorpal sword in hand;
Long time the manxome foe he sought—
So rested he by the Tumtum tree
And stood awhile in thought.

And, as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!

One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.

“And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!”
He chortled in his joy.

’Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

once it's in your head, you're never getting it out. you'll notice those made up words appear in other places, MJ's songs, video games, and fantasy books. I had heard the term Vorpal sword back in the 80s long before I had read the poem.

FX Renews 'Fargo' for a Third Installment

Creator Noah Hawley will again tackle the crime anthology, one in a growing number of projects at the cable network.

Creator Noah Hawley will again tackle the crime anthology, one in a growing number of projects at the cable network.

Noah Hawley's FX dance card is getting awfully full. The prolific showrunner, currently under an overall deal with FX Productions, is now set to tackle a third season of his critically cherished Fargo anthology.

The cable network announced the order Monday, as the series heads into the second half of its sophomore run. It comes as little surprise. The first go of Fargo, in 2014, earned 18 Emmy nominations and three wins. And the second season currently ranks as the most-acclaimed series of 2015, per review aggregate Metacritic, averaging a score of 96 out of 100.

Loosely based on the Joel and Ethan Coen's landmark 1996 film of the same name, Fargo is executive produced by Hawley, the Coens, Warren Littlefield and John Cameron.

"Year two of Fargo is an extraordinary achievement and, given Noah Hawley’s masterful storytelling, we can’t wait to see where the third, all-new version of Fargo takes us," Schrier said along with FX Networks and FX Productions president of programming Eric Schrier, who announced the pickup alongside fellow president Nick Grad. "Our thanks to Noah, Warren, Joel and Ethan, John and our partners at MGM Television for making Fargo such a memorable and rewarding journey."

Not the ratings juggernaut that other FX fare has been, like fellow anthology American Horror Story, Fargo does seem to have a very steady and stable audience. The most recent episode averaged 2.6 million viewers, more than 1 million of them adults 18-49, in live-plus-three day returns.

Hawley has his hands full at FX. In addition to the expected return of Fargo, he is also adapting Kurt Vonnegut novel Cat's Cradle as a limited series and a TV pilot based on Marvel comic Legion. This comes as Hawley approaches the end of his and his 26 Keys shingle's two-year overall deal with the network.

Fargo's original season won Emmys for casting, directing and outstanding miniseries. The Hollywood Reporter's Tim Goodman praised this latest season, calling it "a very riveting and entertaining dark comedy spectacle."
