500 year old curse, cured by Minnesota Nice. Perfect Fargo ending.

[@juliusevola2801]

When u put it that way, it makes the ending even more dumb

[@kbedini5738]

​@@juliusevola2801 someone needs to eat something made with love and joy

[@Cadence__]

I just realised that Dot and Munch embody exactly what abuse can do to people in two different ways. Dot was forced to develop her 'Minnesota nice' persona as a necessary means of shielding herself from what she's been through and carrying on in spite of all of it in order to be able to enjoy things in life. Her scope for joy and experience of life was wide as a result. Munch by contrast became consumed by his own despair, and having no outlet for love or joy in his life, working as a mercenary for some of the worst possible people, he developed an incredibly narrow view of what was meaningful to him, obsessed by his simple 'debt' code. In a way, you can see their views of their lives are a beautiful metaphor for how we can sometimes perceive our situations as completely out of our control, but within us, always have the power to choose how much control we have, based on our outlook on life. Even someone like Munch, who seemed so corrupted on the outside, still has that potential inside them, and Dot could recognise that.

[@yevgeniyaleshchenko849]

Except that we DON'T always have control. We don't have control over war. We don't have control over our genetics, we don't even have control over our bodies and minds if they are sick. Imagine when disease corrupts your mind and body, and you just can't ''stay positive'' because it takes away that too.

[@yorktown99]

In the Icelandic Sagas, there are tales of blood feuds that spiral out of control until all of northern Europe in engulfed in endless warfare. It only ends when the participants are able to extend forgiveness, manifested as food and shelter.

[@neonjohnnson9182]

such a heartwarming and heartful ending. the man finally get his purpose of life by eat something made by "love" and "joy"

Thank you! This was so fucking brilliant. A fantastic ending to a fantastic season.

[@joemanco1075]

Yeah I didn't like certain things about the season but this was definitely my favorite part

[@tv26889]

Contrary opinion. Didn't buy into it just like most of the season. Not convincing or poignant enough.

[@filldawn2016]

So the whole time Fargo, a piece spanning 30 years, a movie, and 5 seasons of television, was just a long epic ad for Bisquick Biscuits. I’m a Pillsbury man myself but i guess i need to try them now

What was the curse that made him live this long ?

[@kleverich]

Glad the season ended on my favorite character giving the audience a big goofy smile.

[@Cleromanticon]

I love how Dot and Lorraine are two sides of the same coin. Debt and Repayment. Punishment and Forgiveness.

My eyes watered up on that one. DAMNNNNN you Fargo

[@tornsage6380]

[@victor256in]

Same. And this usually never happens.

[@mzytryck]

Superb ending. Spruel must have given himself such a face-ache from spending so much time holding all that tension in his face that he releases at the end here, and having him do a gaping, asymmetrical smile like a baby that hasn't learned to control its face yet instead of a conventional one was a brilliant touch to really drive home that he doesn't know HOW to smile because his life has been so terrible for so long.

This is the most beautiful, wonderful, moving end to any series ever on television. This is a classic. Certainly the best season of Fargo so far.

Perfection. The whole season of a piece. This Calvinist sickness is healed when compassion is remembered, offered, even simply allowed. (The gods you worship are the gods you deserve.)

[@gmelniagara5808]

In my perfect world Munch then feasts on chili and biscuits drinks a couple of cold ones and watches the game with the tiger and her family.

[@joshsainz8859]

What another great season 😊😊😊 its just shows how different Dot's life is now with Wayne in comparison to Roy. If Munch would of done that to Roy, he would of tried to kill him and create more problems whereas Wayne and Dot saved this man's life through love and peace.

[@ivan5083]

Awww - love and kindness conquer all kinds of differences. This is such a realistic and original premise that I have totally never seen in any media aimed towards children and teens.

[@RAPEDBYBLACKS]

Sorry that love and goodness hurts you, demon.

[@yevgeniyaleshchenko849]

Oh grow up, why won't you? ''Love'' does NOT conquer all or settle all differences in real world. When russian invaders come to rob, murder, r* and kill us... do you seriously think ''love'' or ''kindness'' will stop them? NO, fighting back will. Same as in the series, ''love'' did not stop tillman, standing up to him did.

As a devout Catholic, this really stuck with me. The embodiment of communion, and the joy it brings in love just hit me like a wall of bricks. Loved it.

[@Sasquatch10]

[@RichardDixon-hq5kz]

The most beautiful scene on tv in a very very long time. But you have to watch the whole thing to understand why.

[@jperickson7737]

I cried as i watched this. Salvation through love. So much to say about this whole show... remarkable. The home destroys or saves. And the mother, the heart of the home, is the sun around it all orbits. Bisquick as maternal sacrament... genius. And profoundly moving.

[@jperickson7737]

This has replaced the final scene of Breaking Bad as the most satisfying conclusion of a tv show i have seen.

[@michaelportaro6926]

Love the thematic concept of this ending. Forgiving debts, accepting love, etc.... BUT... Munch still murdered an innocent gas station clerk. Who's forgiving that debt?

[@REDEEMERWOLF]

Haha everyone forgets about that 😂

Christ does when Munch takes communion.

[@rabd3721]

@@kutless45 I understand the symbolism of communion, but he never mentions Christ, and either way, that would be little comfort to cashier's family. You can forgive debts, but when it comes to justice, you still need accountability.

That's where playing a death for the cheap nervous laughs can come back to bite the writer if they're not thinking ahead.

[@omaridaniels8427]

In hindsight, I wish that THIS had been the one and only time we got the Fargo movie theme in the season instead of also getting it when Dot left the Olmstead's home.

[@mrkilokore2146]

There are two places the original north dakota theme comes on. I call that masterful

[@poisonbonbons8684]

Perhaps, after supping with ones who cared, a man shrugs his coat back on and vanishes back into the world, debts unpaid but no longer required. Or... perhaps a man who has lived long finally finds a place to rest his head, down the lane from the caring ones. He reads books. He tends a garden. He does simple, honest work to earn his coin. Some nights he goes back to that home, and sups again, and is able to smile until his life seems like a nightmare that someone else had, long ago. And one day, as snow falls past his window and he lays in bed, grey haired, surrounded by people who have only given to him and asked nothing in return, he closes his eyes and tastes nothing in what comes after but the sweetness of belonging.

[@ericthegeneric1611]

Juno deserves all the best for this permofance

[@magnafragmenta]

The man loved the old woman who brought him groceries and cooked. Why do you think it was without love?

[@chemicalhap]

He didn't feel that himself. He didn't forgive himself. It's about loving and forgiving yourself. It's about allowing yourself some joy.

@@JoseJimenez-c1z Who said i didn't enjoy it? It was great parody, like i said (i laughed many times). There's no "bias", only my reading of it. Even if the writer wasn't having fun with this one like i suspect, it's still my interpretation. The ideology - the actul bias - is so on your face, there's no other way around it.

[@kbedini5738]

Just because it subverts the tropes of the original movie doesnt make it woke.

[@Disinformation_Hoax]

@@kbedini5738 Like i said, it's a parody. This is not that difficult, i think. Advocating any ideology (with obvious contemporary political implications) is different than representing it at it's most absurd, making a parody or a satire of it.

[@whitebreaddickwilloughby36]

I'm watching this for the second time a week after the finale. Munch pushing the plate away while talking about his sin-eating past (2:44) is such an attentive touch.

[@dirtyunclehubert]

ole munch - a man cursed to forever plagued by the demons / sins he had to eat. edvard munch - a painter plagued and cursed all life long by his own demons. minnesota - norwegian names. i wonder who made this connection. also - ole munch - norwegian name. but also, "old munch" - a nasty nickname for the unsightly shunned sin-eater.
