Fargo was only supposed to be a limited series, but due to its success FX has renewed it for season 2.
The Fargo TV series was a big risk for FX. Would a TV series adaptation of such a well regarded movie be able to have a life of its own? The answer to that question turned out to be in the affirmative, and Fargo went on to receive 18 Emmy nominations.
Because of that, FX has wasted no time in renewing the series for a second, 10 episode season. Much like HBO’s True Detective, Fargo season 2 will feature an all-new cast of characters, an all-new time period, and an all-new “real crime” story. We’ll be sad to see the fantastic cast from the first season go, but it’ll be great to see a new cast too. Fargo season 1 gave us breakout star Allison Tolman, and we can’t wait to see who they’ll find for season 2. With big stars like Martin Freeman and Billy Bob Thornton in season 1, we might see some big star power in season 2 as well.
