Season 4 of FX’s acclaimed anthology series, Fargo is set to premiere with two new episodes, Fargo Season 4 Episode 1, “Welcome to the Alternate Economy” and Fargo Season 4 Episode 2, “The Land of Taking and Killing.”
This season the series is headed to Kansas City, Missouri in the 1950s to follow the contentious relationship between two local crime syndicates. One organization led by Loy Cannon, played by Chris Rock, and the other led by Donatello Fadda played by Tomasso Ragno.
In an effort to establish a truce the heads of each syndicate agree to trade one of their sons to the other. The delicate peace is almost immediately threatened, though, after a death up upends the status quo and sets a power struggle in motion that will unfold over the rest of the season.
