That Fargo though, bloody random, you don't know whether you're coming or going. There’s a particular scene in season 2 that is a proper wtf moment.

Ron Burgundy Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 On 05/10/2020 at 15:18, AlphonseCapone said: I also watched this yesterday and enjoyed it. I think it's correct to say that society is obssessed with murder documentaries and so Netflix like other networks are cashing in on that but I don't see the problem. People arent forced to watch these things and society has always been fascinated by the macabre, technology just means there is much more of it. I don't think the quoted documentary was any worse than others but I suppose some folk struggled with the fact it was almost all from first person perspectives through body cams, Web cams, social media etc. Overall I'd say its a free society of adults who can watch whatever they like within the confines of the law, popularity will dictate what networks promote. But with all due respect to those upset, if you stuck on a documentary that described itself as using first hand accounts of a tragic story of a missing woman and her two kids and the shocking events they unfolded, and are surprised you found it upsetting, quite frankly they shouldn't be allowed to control their own remotes or TV viewing. I watched this last night. Some humans defy belief. I can understand to a degree why a person kills their spouse/ partner, they're just evil and selfish but to cold bloodedly kill your kids is beyond that. Just to clarify I am not condoning killing your spouse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruyff Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Somebody feed phil - Phil Rosenthal, writer and creator of Everybody Loves Raymond doing a food tour of the world. It's a bit of light fluff. He's kinda annoying at the start if you don't know him but he grows on you and you leave thinking, what a brilliant lovely man.

Some seasons are better than others. General consensus among fans is " Asylum" is the best followed by " Murder house". They would be in my book although i liked " Coven" and " Freakshow" and " Hotel" the rest are average. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
