“Unraveling the Chaos: How Noah Hawley’s ‘Fargo’ Transforms Mundane Life into Dark Comedy Gold”
After all, Noah Hawley’s show takes a concept of the same flavor—introducing true crime genre material in a way framed by poor decisions and unfortunate mishaps—all within the same world: frigid, rural Minnesota.
Of course, the crimes that take place and the seasons that build on each are separate, forming an anthology with no real narrative relation to the characters shown in the ’96 film.
But what makes that so compelling? What was so attractive about the first Fargo, and what about Hawley’s creative take on it makes his series so well-loved? In so many words, it’s the balance of chaos and order that these characters embrace—the cold, dark world around them—that makes them shine.
