Chase must not have seen the season of Fargo that just ended, it kicked ass and was not dumbed down.
Perhaps he should tell them that he will make the show good and ignore their advice.
Man I keep hearing this about the latest season, very excited to watch it
Bah. It's on appleTV.
I was using apple TV until their absolute disdain for non-apple plebes made the UI punitive on regular browsers.
And actually cancelling my account when I don't have a fruit phone for all the in-tribe auth voodoo was a struggle that took me a few tries and a Google search or two to get done. And me a Linux nerd on a site maintained at a company pitching itself as the Pinnacle in usability.
So I can't go back. It makes my brain hurt and then I curse and grouse too much and my wife will remember she's way outta my league and divorce me as she should. Pity only goes so far!
I can't have that. So no Fargo for me.
The money you save on not having apple tv could be used for a good VPN and then you can sail the high seas. It's what we all used to do before streaming became a thing. Now that streaming is getting worse again it's back to the high seas.
I was about to bring up Fargo as my example of a show kicking ass. I'm halfway through the last season.
