    Watchable with a little fast-forwarding here and there, but oh boy was this a disappointment vs. S1 and S3, it was even weaker than the previously weakest season 2. Too many characters, too many threads, too many slow expositional scenes, no satisfactory conclusion anywhere in sight.

    The season started off so promising, but it ended up being just one monologue after another. People don't stop to tell stories every five seconds in real life. It feels like Hawley is stuck in a one-note orchestra.

    In general though, the opening was weighed down with scene setting and favoured style over substance.

    Four seasons in and Fargo is still as strong as ever, a sprawling gangland feud delivered with bravura filmmaking. It’s a lot to get your head round but, skilfully played by a pitch-perfect cast, it’s well worth the effort.

    Given that Fargo has always stood out, it is strange that it seems to be settling for blending in.
