The fourth series was rubbish. The only highlight for me was Raylan Givens/Seth Bulloch. The nurse was not bad as well, the rest, turgid.

I also thought season 4 was the nowhere near as good as 1 and 2.

Re: online review sites, the ones that reflect viewers opinions have some merit (though one never knows the demographic of those who have voted), but when you look at the top 10 movies/TV series on imdb, there are plenty that I agree with.

(And on that point, season 4 of Fargo is by far considered the least popular).

Unfortunately am not able to trust imdb or rottentomatoes ratings any longer

Ozark final season has been completely trashed, imdb ratings don't show this

Watched maybe 6 eps of S4, then decided we'd had enough
It was too slow, IMO

You just disagree with most people. That's fine. Most just disagree with you.

I watch a film and I either like it or I don't. I don't need to read a review or check the rating, as if it was suddenly going to change my view.

F4 was good, it was too long though, could have been condensed easily.

I can understand why people gave up on it though.

Ozark I gave up on during the first series. People have been going on about it so much I thought I’d give it another try, I lasted about 15 minutes.

I agree, what a load of rubbish, did really enjoy the first 2 episodes then it went downhill during 3 and 4 was so bad I had to turn it off

Fargo - Trashed

Ozark - Trashed

Hoping that Better Call Saul doesn't go in the same direction

Perhaps Covid 19 has something to do with less thinking and things being rushed through

Both Ozark and Fargo have suffered the curse of one or two series too many. It's obvious why this happens but why does the writing quality have to dip so much?

Really liked the last seasons of both, thought Fargo was particularly good this time round.

As just one of those things you just have to do tonight we are in Fargo North Dakota, as towns go it’s just your identikit American town, however the Visitor Centre does have the woodchipper from the film and the bar we’ve just been to has carrots as a side beer

Indeed, the whole lot S1 to S4 are already on there, plus the original MGM film with Frances McDormand as Chief Marge Gunderson.

Just restarted the binge.

Just watched the first episode of Series 5. First half-hour was a bit meandering but it picked up thereafter and looks like a good watch in weeks to come. Excellent Minnesotan accent from Juno Temple.
