This fucker started it all.
My apologies to anyone anxiously anticipating my review of the Rhinoceros episode. I’ve had technical difficulties and still haven’t gotten up to snuff.
Just so you know that my reviews are 10x better than the competition, here is Yahoo’s lame opinion on why you should be watching Fargo. It’s the most boiler plate, filled with lame overviews, and has no details whatsoever about the show. This is actually a good review by IGN.

Rhinoceros must stand for the episode running the viewer over with action. Let’s start with the non-action though and work through. The more the Peggy and Ed situation carries on, the more I enjoy it. Kirsten Dunst is delusional about the current state of affairs and finally came to in this episode. Hank asking, “you’re a little touched” was pretty funny because she was out there with her new life talk. The jail scene with Ed and his denial just makes you want him to get it more and more.
Near the beginning when Bear attacks Dodd for sending Charlie to make the hit showed Hanzee’s allegiance to Dodd and makes you wonder if he has any feelings whatsoever after Bear thanked him for his service. I’m thinking he’s strictly a murderer / tracker with no conscience whatsoever and does as Dodd says. I like Bear more and more with each episode because of his more logical rationale which was displayed in his reasoning with lawyer Karl Weathers near the end. Bear talking to Otto in the beginning and talking about his oldest son Elron? was a clue to the past.
Shit.
Dodd’s reaction to shooting his own guy was fantastic. How did Peggy hit the guy over the head with a sink? Also where was she in those stacks of book cases and how many fucking magazines has she collected? She mentions they are beauty and travel. She must get seriously addicted to magazines.
Not the guys you want to see outside your house.
I also didn’t mind when Simone tipped off Mike Milligan and he ended up coming straight to the compound and shot up the house. Simone is a dumb bitch and Dodd was hilarious calling a whore’s life a half a cigarette. I wouldn’t mind if she took one in the head which she almost did. Did you know the mom’s name is Floyd. Floyd. That’s a man’s name. I also never watch through the credits and there are scenes…
Just finished this episode. Honestly up there with the best episodes of any television I’ve seen in a while. That whole episode felt like 5 minutes. The way it ended just makes it seem like its going to continue with more extremely entertaining episodes. I had no idea that the moms name is Floyd until I read your post, thats hilarious. How can the whole Gerhardt family take her seriously as the head of a crime organization when her name is Floyd? You knew that when the lawyer walked outside he was gonna say some smart shit to throw the viewer off, cause he’s been such a doofus the whole season. I’m also excited to see Dodd’s face when he finds out his daughter is a traitor, which I’m sure he’ll find out. Unless Peggy killed Dodd, which she should have, but thats unlikely. I was half expecting Hanzee to snipe Ed when Ed was running down the street at the end of the episode. Hanzee is a beast. I would like to see a Hanzee/Milligan showdown at some point. Dodd is a wimp now for being taken down by Peggy. Seriously, how the F did Dodd let that happen. Bear should whip Dodd with the belt for that. I wonder how many episodes are left in the season? I just looked it up. That was episode 6 out of 10. The next episode is called “Did you do this? No, you did it!,” which is funny and I’m obviously wondering who said this and in what context. Can’t wait for the rest of the season.
