It’s a little easier to forgive an anthology show for long hiatuses between seasons for several reasons. First, each season is its own separate story with a beginning, middle, and end, so there’s no danger of forgetting where things left off last time. In addition, many of them have different casts, different settings, etc., so it’s almost like having to start from scratch each time as if to be building a brand-new series.
Even so, many anthology shows manage pretty tight schedules, from “American Horror Story” to “White Lotus,” so the three-year, three-month gap that “Fargo” left between Season 3 and Season 4 is still significant. Not so much based on the Coen Brothers movie of the same name as inspired by it, “Fargo” follows a different group of people each season. The only real connecting thread is a focus on criminals, police who aren’t as bumbling as they seem, and loose ties to the titular city. Season 4 was set to premiere on FX in April of 2020, but once again, COVID-19 had other plans, pushing the Chris Rock-starring fourth season out to November of that year.
Even so, Season 4’s original April 2020 release date would’ve still meant a rather substantial 2-year, 10-month hiatus.
