Just watched it last night, he was the coldest killer i have ever seen and he should get an emmy for that part. When lester gave her the coat, I said bye bye!

Would you like to meet (further spoiler)

your demise by drowning in a frozen lake?

EDITED TO ADD: Besides, it was a nice metaphor about how Lester was on thin ice the whole time.

Probably pretty quick and painless way to go. I wanted torture!

[slag]

Oh yah

Wonderful way to go.

And torture wasn't how Malvo rolled.

Probably pretty quick and painless way to go. I wanted torture!

I thought the tape we heard Malvo listening to where the guy was so torn up about the chaos Malvo had created in his life that he shot himself was going to be major foreshadowing.

Didn't turn out that way, but I still like the way Lester met his demise. When he was on that snowmobile, before he saw the cops, it almost looked like he had a smile on his face and was thinking "HA! I got away with all this. Look at me, I am the man."

To see him go from that to "Oh shit!" was satisfying.

[Riccardo]

Oh yah

He played a dentist for 6 months and torture wasn't how he rolled? Pffft!

And PS

Telling those kids in Lester's old house about the murders and ghosts wasn't psychological torture??

Liked the series a lot more than I thought I would. I hated the idea of remaking the movie into a show but it was surprisingly well made. Only real gripe is it borrowed so heavily from the Coen Brothers work, both Fargo and other movies. I realize that was the point but it was still strange to see characters, themes, etc. lifted almost straight out of their movies.
