We're off to 1950s Missouri to discuss Fargo on FX, but with so many diversions en route, we’ve had to compose a new version of Billy Joel's ‘We Didn’t Start the Fire’ to summarise:
Charlie Brooker’s lost the script, 2020’s now been ripped
Straight from the annals of WWE
Joy White’s Terraformed, Spidey ends up Far From Home
Spitting Image, Ian Hislop Got no News For me
Homecoming, Bly Manor, Isis Beatles, Carol Danvers
H.E.R.’s guitar proves she’s a god, David Lynch left on his tod
Farewell GLOW & Bunny Lee, also to Twin Peaks’ Charlie
Van Halen, shades on dogs, Mike Pence & fly in telepod
We’re gonna start on Fargo
Just as soon as we’ve got through all the segues we need to
We’re gonna start on Fargo
But 2020’s a riot & we can’t just go by it
Jessie Reyez, two new songs, Woodsy will talk how long?
Sunita Mani getting handy, Alicia tinkles Keys
Backxwash, Sa-Roc, Nova Scotia’s album’s top
Excuse the blip of toodle-pip when talking hip-hop
Comment threads are where it’s at, Jessie Reyez love hearts
Anti Rishi Sunak tweets are big on Coronation Street
On the ice & honour rolls, Lady Leshurr strikes a pose
Diva Satanica brings death metal to La Voz
-chorus-
Venom Prison, Nervosa, Bloodhunter, Crypta
Napalm Death are back, as are Anaal Nathrakh
Megan thee Stallion winning the election
No snacks with the pinot noir, lockdown bloat has gone too far
Crash Pandas, Quinn’s Ideas, raccoons switching up the gears
Tour diaries, RPGs, James back on his nine-ties
Woodsy’s usual hashtag plug, Misha Green sweeps out the rug
With Sun Ra sci-fi odysseys but not the baseball mystery
-chorus-
Abbey Lee gets her due, timey-wimey fun ensues
Hippolyta makes a scene in Paris with Josephine
Topsy, Bopsy, dancing’s cool, creeping horror leaves us schooled
Hashtag Fuck Tic, Christina’s lynching makes us sick
Top lolz as nipples pop and shoggoths mangle evil cops
Tulsa is burned away - why did they have to choose this day?!
-chorus-
Fargo virgins, there’s no shame, you’ll be mighty glad you came
For offbeat absurdity in Noah Hawley’s Casualty
Eccentric names, fart gags, killer nurse opens her bag
Slips the ring inside & flees, Twin Peaks: Fadda Walk With Me!
Anti True Detective vibes, dialogue to split our sides
Smutneys, Senator & Capps, who’s doomed to take the final nap?
Snowman shivers, Deafy lolz, Gaetano’s untamed eyeballs
Critics of the pace & tone, do you even Fargo, bro?
We got around to Fargo
It was a trip to get there & we did it together
We’re gonna stick with Fargo
Till the season is gone
& Mr Robot goes on and on and on and on
