Season 3 of Fargo started last night.

It seems like the first episode of each season is almost like a mini-movie. I wasn't expecting to stay up and watch it all last night, but it sucked me in and I watched all 90 minutes.

It's too early to tell how this will compare to seasons 1 and 2, both of which I thought were excellent.

I mentioned this earlier, but Legion, a Marvel Comic series on FX was made by the creator of Fargo and features two actresses from season #1 of Fargo, and a popular actor from Downton Abbey.

I've got all 8 episodes on my DVR waiting to be watched.

Dan Stevens is often mentioned as a contender for the next James Bond once Daniel Craig officially steps down.

He has a very easy going charm and is a little bit dorky, which makes him more interesting than many other actors. Pictured with his wife below.

Thanks for the reminder. I enjoyed the first two seasons, especially the first one.

On Downton, he sometimes had the Bond
mystery about him. It's a Brit thing, about
understatement in a very attractive man.
He would make a very good Bond.

David Tennant, the 2nd of the new Dr Who's, has a very relaxed charm about him. He is probably the only actor who ever played Hamlet in a fake muscle -shirt.

So far this season I loved the first two episodes, but I was not a fan of the third episode at all.

It felt like a "filler" episode to me - focused only on one character going to LA to investigate something that didn't seem particularly relevant to the storyline as a whole.

I found myself missing all the other characters that were left out.

I agree that this story-line doesn't interest me as much as the one of the two brothers. However, I think the two stories will become more intertwined as the show progresses.
