IGotWorms 3,315 Posted February 4 Anyone seen it? Reviews are pretty tepid so I’m thinking I’ll skip it. But for some reason I do kinda want to give it a shot. Fargo season 5 was fantastic, btw. Highly recommend if you haven’t seen it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BeenHereBefore 1,335 Posted February 4 I wasn't crazy about the movie and not going to watch this woke remake even though I have Prime. Oh I caught the first 3 eps on Fargo 5 and guess I will have to pick it back up and thanks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If a tv show sucks that’s really all that matters. Now it’s possible it could suck because they were too narrow in their casting or tried to cram too much pandering in. Yes, that can happen. But you see, all I care about is whether it’s good or not. So if it has a diverse cast or an lgbtq teenager or whatever, I really don’t care if it’s still a good show, whereas you’ll throw a hissy tantrum and never even give it a shot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are you telling me I have never watched a program with diversity or gay characters? Can you give an example please? If you're going to say Modern Family, 100% chance if that show debuted now you'd call it woke because of the gay couple. Any show these days that includes anything other than straight, white people led by a man is considered woke by the constantly outraged conservatives.

I’m going off of the propensity for remakes to be woke. That’s the show you asked about. I clearly spelled that out, never mentioning diversity being an issue.

I said I'm two episodes in and I said "so far" In also said "not much" and I didn't say none. That's the first time I've seen them bring up anything about white people. Although the super-feminist thing the chick has is on full display. I think that's supposed to be part of the story. It's just annoying as hell. But if you're so desperate to be offended, feel free.

Mike Honcho 4,039 Posted February 14 I watched the first episode last night and enjoyed it. Pretty much a different story save for the two people work for a mysterious shadow company.
