I really liked both series. It is very loosely based on the film Fargo.
They usually have some well know actors in the series. Don't want to say too much about the plots as it would likely spoil things, but the characters are a bit strange and the second series culminated in quite an 'out there' way.
Not sure how you would catch up on the other two series other than say Netfilx or buying the boxset. Unless you are someone who uses certain sites to download and 'audition' content. 
Its on Channel 4 catch-up 
Think I will give it a go

Stick with it as it is quite quirky.
It might be to your advantage watching it all together as you can keep abreast of the plotlines and character development, where I on occasion forgot what they hell was happening. 
I think I may also watch from Series one again. They bill it as a black comedy crime drama.
BTW it's set in the near past (2006) for the first season, then season two (which is a prequel to season one) takes you back to 1979. Season three then jumps forward in time - told you it was f****d up !!!
Fat chance 
Series 1 and half of Series 2 is no longer available unless i'm on Amazon Prime and don't think it's even on Netflix

@Saint pm me.
I can't cos i'm not a thingy-ma-jig member

Series one and two are on Netflix. If you use a different device from normal to register, Netflix don't know it's you and give you a month's fee trial. I just did it again.

Good advice Roger.
There you go Saint. Binge watch a box set or two.
What-the-ruddy-heck are you geeks on about?
I'm posh not tech
Seems unavailable on Netflix but it's is on Amazon
May go for my THIRD monthly 'trial' and cram it in

It is on Netflix, I just checked Saint 
. Sometimes it's hard to see the selection unless you're in and subscribed?
I thought Fargo season 1 was good, haven't seen the second.
Is Netflix worth ÂĢ7.99 p/m ?
Saint posted:Is Netflix worth ÂĢ7.99 p/m ?
I'd say so. There seem to be more "big" shows on Netflix than Prime. The main advantage of Netflix is you can subscribe for just a month and fill yer boots. [ Prime - you're tied to a year's subscription 
]. What kind of shows do you like, Saint?
The Crown, Stranger Things, The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt are all things I've enjoyed recently on Netflix. My favourite is Better Call Saul
I've hardly used Prime video in months...
Dunno - movies mostly
The 4400 - Breaking Bad (may as well), Games of Thrones (am I the only one who hasn't seen it?) and Fargo seems good.
So much is shown once then gone so I'd like the luxury of watching when I get the time - like The Halcyon.

Breaking Bad was good [ not top notch i.m.o. ...perhaps it's more a bloke's show ]. Game of Thrones really draws you in [ I too, put off watching it for the longest time 
]. If The Halcyon was your cup of tea, You might like The Crown. You being a posh chappy n' that
Netflix apparently has a huge library, not all the content is advertised on site, so this might help you:

Thank you Rogiey
I am rather posh so will have to peruse The Crown

One thing I promise is the purchase of a dishwasher when I get my own place

Carers are amazing and save the government a fortune

A break from working (at a job) is nice

That looks a hell of a dodgy site Sainty - and a likely way to download malware to your pc
I've obtained stuff from the internet pixies before - but I wouldn't touch that particular site. Overall, it's worth the peace of mind to pay the small fee to Netflix.
How about watching the upcoming S.3 for free on tv... see if you like the Fargo style, then pay to see the previous seasons [ it's a different story + cast for each season ].
Well the site is playing ok for me
If I experience an issue I may as well go for a free month trial with Amazon as BOTH Fargo and Halcyon are on there ... and Top Gear.
Watch Series 1 Episode 1 tonight
Very, very good. A genuinely interesting story and some familiar faces too.
Looking forward to tomorrow and Episode 2
