Two in-depth reviews praise Noah Hawley’s writing and tonal control in Fargo, highlighting the Coen-esque dark humor, moral decay, and intricate character work. One focuses on Season 2’s Sioux Falls Massacre and its tangled web of ordinary people and gangsters; the other dissects Season 1’s balance of grotesque comedy and tragedy, with Malvo and Molly as opposing forces. Directional flourishes and soundtrack choices are also lauded.
