Fargo is one of the most brilliant and weird series probably ever made. While the series is brilliant and gets better with every season, the wait between each season is very long because the series creator Noah Hawley is attached to many projects, and he doesn’t have much time to create new seasons every year. So, if you also like the FX original series Fargo here are some brilliant shows you should watch to fill in your time.
