Lay Away

This absolutely does not disappoint! I'm really enjoying this season throughout. I've had my doubts in the first three episodes but then it went smoothly from there onwards! Can't wait for the next!

Show is moving at a snails pace. This is another episode where little to nothing happens.

This is amazing TV period. People need to stop spending time comparing it to everything else and the previous installments. It's in its own lane. It can be whatever it wants to be. If it was the "same" then you'd probably be complaining as well.

As entertaining as this fourth season is, it hasn't exactly been made in the same style or type of story telling that was set with the movie and the three seasons preceding this fourth one.

Still very watchable though and especially if you enjoy storys set around American gangsters.

Outside of the great world building, characters, and tension--all of which helps to make this episode and season as great as it is--I really appreciate the slightly different approach to the show this time around. It still feels like the same television series in many of the crucial ways, but the different location and evolution of the story really makes this whole thing quite refreshing. I don't know whether a fourth season would have worked without something new injected into the mix, but I do know that what we have is really good and well worth the wait.

It's also amazing how well Noah Hawley still manages to surprise the audience, in spite of the fact that the promise of death is given at the beginning of each season. We all know that some people won't make it out alive, but it's incredibly engaging to watch the steps that lead to bloodshed along the way. The show was very thrilling and tense this week, and I cannot wait to see how this whole thing continues in the last few episodes.
