“Your fears are unwarranted. It’s a fantastic series.”

I’ll watch the first episode. I’m bracing myself for all sorts of hiphop-jumpcuts, at least one emo song to underscore whatever emotion and actors with the ever-trendy unshaven look & just got-out-of-bed hair, with very few actors/actresses looking over 20. If they can do the “Yaas” convincingly, at least that would be something.

As you can probably tell, I’m not expecting much. But I’ll give it a look.
:D

I don’t think there are any young people across the three seasons (which are three entirely different stories). This thing is on par with Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul and is executive produced by the Coens. The guy who runs it, Noah Hawley, knows the movie inside and out, so he has the tone down, but it’s not a remake or even the same story.

BTW, the Coens have their own TV series coming up called “The Ballad of Buster Scruggs.” It’s apparently a western and was too long to be released as a movie, so they’re going the TV route.
