I did like that reveal, but otherwise, not a lot of excitement.
Stop that right now! I can hear the smacking!

I can't remember women wearing gloves in 1969... but then I wasn't going out to fancy restaurants, either.

Elmore Leonard tried to be an adman for a while. Which makes me wonder if Roger Sterling let him go cause all of his storyboards ended with a hail of bullets.
"Another bloodbath, Leonard?"
"Why not?"

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Wow, I'm already looking forward to Billy Bob Thornton's comeuppance on Fargo, but so far I have enjoyed his choice of targets for being the world's biggest asshole.
I love Martin Freeman, but he's having accent issues above and beyond the exaggerated Minnesota ones. However this has a HUGE Coen brothers vibe the way that Justified had Elmore Leonard down.

I'm having trouble wrapping my head around the idea of a Fargo television series. That said, I'm absolutely in. Very good pilot.
Totally did not recognize Bob Odenkirk.
How does Martin Freeman have time to film everything he's in?

The women the background weren't wearing gloves. Maybe she was being extra formal as part of whatever she's into that made her want to tell Roger she forgave him?

Yeah, that mustache actually disguised him better than I would have thought. I thought he was supposed to be the hapless sheriff, but i think that was Colin Hanks.

SERIOUSLY!!! As I said, I kept hearing his accent wobble, but I figure given his schedule he's only got so much time to perfect those things, and his visual performance made up for any lacking in the vocal department.

Colin Hanks was the guy in Duluth that let Billy Bob go. Is he a sheriff? It seems wrong to me that he's playing a dad. I was sure that scene was not gonna work for me, just for the snippets that were in the ads, but it was really very effective.
Speaking of ads, Louie CK jumping off the bridge.

I saw the Fargo pilot and really liked it. I'm looking forward to seeing where Freeman's character goes, and I'm finding the other characters interesting, too. Frequently in appalling ways, but that's half the fun with the Coen Brothers' stuff.
