Fargo - Season 1 Episode 06: Buridan's Ass
In 1996, a manipulative drifter preys upon a small-town insurance salesman in the opener of this adaptation. Deputy Molly Solverson and Duluth police officer Gus Grimly team up to solve a series of murders they believe may be linked to Malvo and Nygaard. Fargo features a new “true crime” story and new characters, all entrenched in the humor, murder and “Minnesota nice” that made the film a classic.

There's a lot of Biblical and philosophical meat to chew on by now, but I have to admit that it makes my head hurt.

I can't believe this show made me feel so much for the character I had the least affection for in his last moments.

The clever trick Fargo is pulling off is creating suspense and mystery even though viewers already know whodunit.

Though the series has winked at the movie before... By all rights, the comparison should be wildly unflattering. But if any episode of the series has earned the right to do it, it's "Buridan's Ass."

Lester Nygaard continued his decent into a moral wasteland... in what was one of the most emotionally dark and visually pretty episodes of Fargo to date.

It's a testament to the show that, with everything else that's going on, 'Buridan's Ass' manages to make Lester's temporary escape from the hospital and subsequent planting of evidence... more than just an ancillary incident to pass the time.

Fargo Season 1 Episode 6 was an hour full of killing, manipulation, self-preservation and one quest to make good on a prior misdeed. Overall, the bad guys without remorse kept on winning.
