The second season of “Fargo” has won accolades from critics and viewers. The plot revolves around a young state trooper (Patrick Wilson) and his sheriff father-in-law (Ted Danson) as they investigate a grisly case involving a local crime family and a major mob syndicate, and a small-town beautician (Kirsten Dunst) and her husband (Jesse Plemons), who inadvertently get caught in the middle.

The show’s creative team, including creator/executive producer Noah Hawley, and executive producers Warren Littlefield, Joel and Ethan Coen, and John Cameron will all return for the new installment.
