Just like I "hoped" both got their comeuppance at the end. While I feel a bit sorry for Lester for how he was often picked on before he ever met Malvo, what he did after that cannot be justified. So he deserves this - that the little pip squeak got what he deserved in the end!
One thing I am wondering about is how did Gus not get done for shooting dead Malvo? He could have claimed self defence but at the same time, knowing what the authorites are like, he could have got done for murder because he chose to pursue him?
I'm glad he didn't get done for anything though.
Have you noticed what a nice bunch of Police Officers they were in Fargo though?
Lester's brother was put away for Lester's wife's murder. He would be released now that they have the telephone call tapes proving Lester did it. Or would he.... given the bloody hammer was found in his garage and he could have been in cahoots with his brother. Could this be a link to a new Fargo series perhaps?

I don't think so. Martin Freeman and BBT have said they only signed in for 1 Season. The writer of the show said it will be a brand new story if there is a season 2.

I think they'll still have some causal link from the film or the TV series though.
I don't think the poster that said Frances McDormand had a cameo on the phone in the last episode was correct. I can find nothing on Google to say she did this. I watched the scene again, and it sounded nothing like her.

You might be right but I watched the Fargo film only last Friday and checked back on my final recording of the final episode on V+ using headphones for best sound quality and it really did sound like Marge to me as well.

They all sound like her in that neck of the woods Lol. I don't think it was her. There would have been a mention in the press and also she would have been credited.
Does anything think Malvo got too cocky in the end? He could have killed
Lester in Vegas, but he decided to slowly hunt him down by going back to
Fargo, thus giving Lester a chance to fight back and also alerting the cops
to his presence. If he'd just plugged Lester in the lift he'd probably have
got away.

Neither of those two things are necessarily true if it was a genuine secret cameo.

I don't know what or why but he seemed to have a soft spot for Lester. He only decided to kill him after Lester hit him on the head with his award.
Before that he was happy to have Lester help him dispose of the bodies.
I've got mixed feelings about the last episode.I thought Malvo was killed too easy.I was expecting him to go out in some blaze of glory but when it happened i found it to be such a let down.
I was a fan of Lester for most of the series.However that changed with the 2nd last episode when he just sat there & let his wife be killed.So i was happy to see him get his comeuppance in the last episode.:D
Overall i really enjoyed the series.I liked the characters & It was nice to see Martin Freeman play the type of character that we aren't use to seeing him play.I thought Billy Bob Thornton was great.I've never bothered much with him as an actor but after seeing him in this i will be checking out some of his films.

Did you watch the preceding eight episodes? The bits where he killed his wife, framed his brother.....

There was some speculation in the podcast that the next season could be a prequel to the film.
Maybe, but there is still that briefcase full of cash in the snow somewhere just waiting for someone to chance upon it …
Maybe it is one of those mysteries where this briefcase is fated to keep being returned to that point
God answers those that ask and the spirit of Lorne Malvo leads them to another place where they realise that they have gone horribly wrong.....:D

Perhaps he has a twin brother?
Um, no, that would be too corny.

But it didn't sound like her anyway.
that's assuming it gets picked up for another season because i don't think its been renewed yet

If it was her there was no way on earth they would have kept it secret. They would have milked it for all its worth in promos and on social media.
In most programmes the say "Previously on <whatever>"
In Fargo it's "Precedently on Fargo"
Or "Erstwhile on Fargo"
Or 'erstwhile'.
