    I think Lester's main issue was that overcoming his loser problems felt so good each time. It fed his ego and made him feel like a winner for the first time in his adult life. Every time he made a high risk/high reward move and got away with it, he thought he was just that good.He literally started to feel like the odds didn't apply to him.
    The Solverson/Grimly combined family is awesome, Adoptive grandad/grandaughter guarding each other on the porch is precious!
    On to Season 2! It's not a spoiler to say it's even better than Season 1.

    • @DementedCaver

      Season 2 was my personal favorite so far. ;)

    • @M._R.
      @M._R. 2 года назад +3

      Season 1 is pure perfection for me from start to finish.
      I honestly don't understand why people say season 2 is even better. I don't want to spoil too much, but that _one_ thing in season 2 ruined it for me. I hope you know what I mean.
      The movie and season 1 are all about human stupidity and how everything can spiral out of control when stupidity meets greed, hubris and recklessness and then one "unfortunate" event follows another.
      Season 2 has that too, but this *one* thing has no place in Fargo for me, because for me it takes out part of the chain of "unfortunate" coincidences of human actions and replaces it with something else.
      Sorry to be so cryptic, but I don't want to spoil anyone too hard. I hope it's obvious to people who know the season what I mean by that one thing.
      With all that said, I would even rank season 3 above season 2, tbh.

    In Native American myth from the region, the wolf is a noble creature representing courage and nobility, and the fox is a trickster who can sometimes lead someone to their death. In some stories the two are opposed to each other.
    I don't think the wolf actually represents Malvo, or at least stops representing Malvo part way through the season, I think (as his name actually means) he is the fox, an evil trickster.
    Off the top of my head I remember the wolf appearing shortly before interactions with Gus. As the two get closer and closer the wolf becomes more and more prominent.
    We see a wolf in the video playing in the van of the guy who sells Malvo the radios. The radios Malvo uses to figure out where Gus lives.
    Malvo shares his theory about Rome and wolves shortly before he spots gus in the street.
    Malvo has Don tell a story about a wolf during the last blackmail message, shortly after Gus goes to the store to ask the store manager for information.
    After the riddle of the wolf the rabbit and the cabbage, we see Gus hunting around for Mavo.
    Finally the last episode a wolf literally appears and leads Gus to Malvo.
    It's like the Wolf has been looking for the fox to end his mischief.

    Shout out to Billybob. One of the great unsung heroes of cinema. James, if you liked the Malvo character, you've got a serious rabbit hole of BBT material to dive in to. This was stellar, but you haven't seen his best work. Slingblade bruh, will knock your socks off. Bandits with Bruce Willis. A Simple Plan with Bill Paxton. Princess Mononoke... Yeah, he's even got epic anime wins on his record. Plus, he banged Angelina.
