    What a great series premiere!

    Its the first show I have started to watch on FX...I know they have some good shows but never got around to watching it.

    I saw the original film back in the 90's and I loved that movie...The style and look of this show is similar but the story is different and the dialogue and acting is top notch.

    Martin Freeman and Billy Bob were fantastic in the first episode...Not to mention good old Saul (Bob Odenkirk) is in the show.

    I think this is also a mini-series I think so the story may end after 10 episode...I'd give it a shot, great cast. Its got the right mix of Breaking Bad, No Country for Old Men, Fargo movie, and goodfellas in terms of that mafia dialogue

    Got off to a slow start but came around great.
    It is a 10 episode mini series but there is already talk of another.

    Wow, great pilot. Brilliantly acted by Freeman and Thornton can't wait for the next one, reviewers say it gets better from here on out.

    We're 4 episodes in. Damn Billy Bob Thornton is both a bad ass and a major ball buster.

    The whole season from start to finish was great. The next season it's supposed to go back in the past with all different characters except one who is a lot younger, not going to spoil anything since not everybody has watched the whole first season

    I larfed when he told that kid to pee in his Mom's gas tank. Then called the front desk to complain.

    And when he called the older kid pretending to be the family attorney.

    And the repertoire about whether a fish was a pet?

    What won? Breaking Bad? I ain't mad...Fargo won best show at Golden Globes which I'd say is cooler. Billy Bob won best actor, he beat our Woody and the Mathew Mccaughney from True Detective

    They labeled it a miniseries and rules it out for the real awards

    I liked Breaking Bad a lot but that final season they win on reputation alone, although between Fargo and True Detective I would have voted TD
