Nice. Glad to see she's getting work.
This show preceded THE DEUCE… Typical HBO/ Simon move to use the same actor/ actress...
-
7 episodes in on the wire. It’s really good. Is it the same group that made Tremé?

Finished Godless. As others have said, good show.

I'm now 4 episodes into Fargo season 1. So far, so good. It gets bonus points because Joel & Ethan Coen are executive producers on the show, so I know it's in good creative hands being that they're local boys. I like the actors a lot, but the standouts for me so far are Billy Bob Thorton, Martin Freeman and Adam Goldberg
I think Martin Freeman does a great job channeling his own version of William H. Macy's character from the original movie. Can't wait to finish up season 1 and start season 2 -

Good to know. I think if I had to find something to nitpick about it would be the ridiculous use of the Minnesota accent. It's not used as much, it would seem, as the original movie but I felt the movie at least did a decent job of doing it correctly. Again, William H. Macy did a great job with his Minnesota accent but there were a few scenes in the tv show that were cringe worthy. And no, most Minnesotans do not speak like that

It's a regional dialect in parts of the midwest. I think it's origins are from the large Scandinavian immigrants that came here. Some people do talk with the thick Minnesota accent but I havent heard it in awhile. Especially people that like to say, "uffda."

I remember when I would visit my Swedish grandfather in Minnesota he would always take me to a store called "Uff da". It was like a big gift shop full of Swedish trinkets….might have been trinkets for all Scandinavian countries but I just remember buying the Swedish ones.
This reminds me, I just did that Ancestry DNA thing...pretty cool. Come to find out I'm 49% Scandinavian. My grandfather was Swedish like I said but I was surprised to find out I had that high of a percentage of that DNA.

Minnesota is pretty multi-cultural but there are a lot of immigrants that came here from Germany, Sweden, Norway and Finland. My dad's side of the family is German and Swedish. My ex-wife's side is Norwegian, French and Irish. Where in Minnesota was your grandfather?

He had a place in Lake City, small town from what I remember. I always liked it up there.

Nice. I may have passed through there once upon a time on my way to Chicago.

Season 2 is as good, maybe even better. Season 3 wasn’t quite as strong imho, but still worth watching.
