2) Fargo
When it was revealed that a Fargo TV series was in the works, fans of the movie were understandably sceptical. Surely it would never live up to that classic offering from Joel and Ethan Coen? Well, it did, and after a stellar season which saw the likes of Martin Freeman and Billy Bob Thornton take on leading roles, the second is going to serve as a prequel of sorts to the events of the first.
Patrick Wilson is set to play the younger version of Lou Solverson (Keith Carradine took on that role in season one of Fargo), and while plot details are mostly being kept under wraps, it will once again be a crime story full of blood, murder, and intrigue as well as an expansion of events alluded to in the first batch of episodes.
Throw in an impressive cast which includes Kirsten Dunst, Nick Offerman, and Ted Danson, and there are lots of reasons to tune into this.
