I can't get into modern television. (Off-Topic)
Hey, I'll watch anything if it's got an enthralling story.
I have heard really good word of mouth about Fargo. I was hesitant to watch a TV show based on a movie as self-contained as that movie was, but I have been made to understand that the show is only loosely based on the film, and as you describe, ends up becoming an anthology sort of thing.
I do find the trend of turning movies into TV shows interesting. Just off the top of my head, there's Fargo, Lethal Weapon, Westworld, and 12 Monkeys just within the last few years. I know this is not a new thing for television - hell, M*A*S*H was adapted from a movie - it's just an interesting trend that has seemed to pick up steam recently.
