Why is Fargo a superior show to games of Thrones, I can watch single episodes of Fargo and be thoroughly entertained. I've yet to see a single episode of GoTs more than once, it's just too heavy.
In keeping with the spirit of the film, the female characters are all very strong. Games of Thrones is brought down a notch by the two leading actresses, Lena Haedey rarely drops her sour expression and Emilia Clarke is just plain shallow. They should do more nude scenes.
Nikki Swango is a small time grifter who's in over her head. She gets in the crosshairs of V.M Varga, a former Russian secret police commander with a British accent and rotten teeth. He's building a fortune from shell companies when Nikki gets in the way. She boards a prison bus, her fate is assuredly sealed. The music is somber signifying that her time is almost up. Then we see who she's been chained to (Mr Wrench), the music changes from somber to a snappy drum solo. It's these little touches that make the show great.
I nearly forgot about about Mr Wrench. In Season 1, he was the mob enforcer who barely survives a gun fight with Lorne Malvo (Billy Bob Thornton), he escapes as the cops arrive. He arrives bloodied at a safe house, then disappears. Mr. Varga with his crew of henchmen is invincible. With the return of Mr Wrench, we know that someone wants to keep Ms. Swango alive.
Mr. Wrench's theme music.
