Oh, yeah, I haven't encountered a show with more quotage than Suits. That one surprised me because it wasn't a quote. I'm sure I miss a bunch, but they point a few out I'd otherwise not notice, so that's nice.
I do love the one where a list of epic lovers is being written, and Jaime and Cersei Lannister are cut off for too controversial, but Romeo and Juliet and Antony and Cleopatra make it on. And this is a love letter.

Yeah, in retrospect, the cascade I was (not quite) remembering was the Jerry Maguire bit.
OMG, this season (and in a way series) finale for Fargo is killing me. There's only two people I want dead at this point and I'm biting fingernails about the rest. Holy shit they did a good job with this series long-ish haul.
Dammit, RIP Keye and Peele, FBI. I hoped you'd make it since you vindicated Molly. Or at least seriously wounded Billy Bob (or at least fucking Lester). Dammit again, I say. Dammit.
Wow, Gus pulled the trigger, a lot. I kinda don't blame him but still, not what you expect the "good" guy to do to someone who is essentially hobbled.
I only really feel bad for the two FBI guys (partly because of the actors, who probably LOVED getting gory death scenes, but mostly because they were so on the verge of being right and without being assholes to the local PD).
Bob Odenkirk turned out to play a way more sympathetic character than I ever envisioned from the early episodes. Kudos. I'm looking forward to his Breaking Bad spinoff, the very idea of which kills me.
Chekhov's bear trap! That was gnarly.

How so?
Yeah, I hoped Pepper and Budge would make it, too. But once Lester solved the Fox, Rabbit, Cabbage problem, their dream was over.
Loved Bob Odenkirk's arc. That could have gone very differently.
Gus was pretty much in a nuke him from orbit, it's the only way to be sure situation. Kinda curious how they wrote that up afterwards, but I can see him deciding that was what he needed to do.
Poor car salesman.

I heard they were going to have an entirely new cast for the next season, like True Detective (or AMHS) though set in the same general part of the country.
Oh, ok. That makes sense. Though I would love to just follow the adventures if Molly & family in Bemidji, probably better they don't have much more happening in this vein...
I've heard the theory that the connecting thread of the ongoing series may be the money buried in the field, although it was really pretty tagential in this storyline (which may have been the point).
It was pretty awesome when I realized where I knew that image from - the seemingly endless fence and the ice-scraper sticking up. It's an intriguing notion.
