[TV] Fargo: Season 3 on iflix


Each video streaming platform has their share of exclusive content and one of the best reasons to sign up for iflix is the FX TV series Fargo. The movie alone was pretty awesome and the subsequent TV series has been equally compelling. And I'm glad that iflix continues to get the rights to additional seasons of the show.

EMMY® & GOLDEN GLOBE® AWARD-WINNING FARGO IS BACK, ON IFLIX
‘Fargo’ returns with its third installment, an all-new “true crime” tale starring Emmy® & Golden Globe® nominee Ewan McGregor in a dual role
MANILA, April 27, 2017 – iflix, the world’s leading Subscription Video on Demand (SVoD) service for emerging markets has acquired exclusive rights in the Philippines, for the third installment of the critically-acclaimed series Fargo. The season three premiere of the award-winning limited series is now available to stream or download, with subsequent episodes every Thursday, available exclusively on iflix.
Set in 2010, the third installment of Fargo centers on “Emmit” and his slightly younger brother “Ray Stussy” (Ewan McGregor).  Emmit, the Parking Lot King of Minnesota, sees himself as an American success story, whereas Ray is more of a cautionary tale. Forever living in his more successful brother’s shadow, Ray is a balding and pot-bellied parole officer with a huge chip on his shoulder about the hand he’s been dealt – and he blames his brother.  Their sibling rivalry follows a twisted path that begins with petty theft but soon leads to murder, mobsters and cut-throat competitive bridge. Carrie Coon stars as “Gloria Burgle,” the steady chief of the local police department. A newly divorced mother, Gloria is trying to understand the new world around her, where people connect more intimately with their phones than with the people around them.  Mary Elizabeth Winstead stars as Ray’s girlfriend, “Nikki Swango,” a crafty and alluring recent parolee with a passion for competitive bridge. David Thewlis stars as “V.M. Varga,” a mysterious loner and true capitalist who delivers Emmit the bad news that the Parking Lot King of Minnesota has just become partners with his employers, whose business interests lay outside the law.
Fargo hails from Peabody, Golden Globe® and Emmy® award-winning Executive Producers Noah Hawley (also the program’s Creator/Showrunner/Writer/Director), Joel and Ethan Coen, Warren Littlefield and John Cameron.  
iflix members can now catch every episode of Fargo’s anthology series, as a part of iflix’s extensive slate of award winning, exclusive shows, including Mr. Robot, The Magicians, Younger, Black Sails, Emerald City and many more. 
James Bridges, iflix Global Head of Content Partnerships commented: “Noah Hawley is one of the most exciting storytellers in television today and iflix is thrilled to be the exclusive home of Fargo in Southeast Asia. Ewan McGregor heads yet another incredible cast in the grittiest installment yet of TV’s most compelling drama.”
