Following in the footsteps of Joel and Ethan Coen’s classic black comedy crime thriller, FX’s Fargo is a small screen reboot rather than a direct remake of the lauded movie. Starring Martin Freeman in the William H. Macy role, the cast is filled out with stellar talent, although it’ll have to go some to even match the Coen picture. Adam Bernstein directed the first episode, and while it does feel a bit unnecessary, Fargo at least deserves a chance when it debuts April 15th on FX.
