The Narrow Escape Problem Ratings & Reviews
Flickering Myth
Shaun Munro
Fargo returns to business-as-usual after last week's entertaining sojourn to Los Angeles, and things finally start coming together as Gloria is drawn towards the Stussys, while Emmit begins to feel the pinch from Varga and his lofty ambitions.
Decider
Sean T. Collins
Fargo is an expect-the-unexpected kind of show - how else would you describe the opening of this week's episode, "The Narrow Escape Problem."
Refinery29
Courtney E. Smith
Don't know much about biology? Then this week's episode of Fargo is the metaphor you need.
The Young Folks
Gary Shannon
Fargo seems to struggle in finding a meaningful connection between the numerous plot threads that comprise the third season, but the fourth episode easily demonstrates each thread's individual strength in characterization, depth and emotion.
TV Fanatic
Caralynn Lippo
Brilliant. I can't get over how flawlessly Ewan McGregor differentiates the two characters.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Brian Tallerico
I could watch these vibrant characters and this show's strong visual language sans quick plotting and still be pretty satisfied.
New York Times
Scott Tobias
Terrific introduction to Olivia Sandoval as Officer Winnie, who picks up on the related thread of Sy smashing up Ray's car - and, more damningly, a stranger's bumper - with the company Humvee.
Uproxx
Brian Grubb
It was very cool and fun and when I recognized that it was Billy Bob -- Lorne Malvo himself, back from the dead, kind of -- I started smiling from ear to ear.
Collider
Chris Cabin
The battle of the good vs. the bad, predator and prey, continues on - even if it's becoming harder and harder to locate the true villain.
indieWire
Ben Travers
Now we're ready to see the fireworks. That's a lot of pressure for Episode 5, but we still feel safe in Noah Hawley's hands.
Observer
Vinnie Mancuso
It is a nice touch to have this episode narrated by the constantly world-weary voice of Lorne Malvo himself, Billy Bob Thornton, reading excerpts from Sergei Prokofiev's Peter and the Wolf.
Den of Geek
Nick Harley
After spending quality time with Gloria on the coast last week, we catch up with all of our principal players as the plot begins to thicken.
Rolling Stone
Noel Murray
Creator Noah Hawley may not have realized this when he was mapping out these episodes, but he's come up with the perfect villain for our times in Varga.
IGN Movies
Matt Fowler
Saving this week's chapter from being fully "good not great" was the use of Peter and the Wolf and highlighting the allegorical and, bottom line, fabricated nature of the series as a false "true story."
Entertainment Weekly
Kevin P. Sullivan
After a week trying to find itself and maybe get a little sun out on the West Coast, Fargo returned to the Midwest and some of its roots.
AV Club
Zack Handlen
This week, it's back to the hodgepodge of plots that will presumably make up the rest of the season until everything comes crashing together and no questions are answered... All of which is fine, really.
Paste Magazine
Kyle Fowle
Fargo, as always, gives as much as it takes, its aesthetic choices at once frivolous and packed with meaning.
