And “Fargo” Season 5 is no different. This Fall’s installment follows Midwestern housewife Juno Temple‘s Dorothy “Dot” Lyon as she finds a life she thought she left behind gradually returning after she gets in hot water with local authorities.
Here’s a very long official synopsis for “Fargo” Year 5, courtesy of FX:
North Dakota Sheriff “Roy Tillman” has been searching for Dot for a long time. A rancher, preacher and a constitutional lawman, Roy believes that he is the law and therefore is above the law. At his side is his loyal but feckless son, “Gator”, who is desperate to prove himself to his larger-than-life father. Too bad he’s hopeless. So when it comes to hunting Dot, Roy enlists “Ole Munch”, a shadowy drifter of mysterious origin. 
With her deepest secrets beginning to unravel, Dot attempts to shield her family from her past, but her doting, well-meaning husband “Wayne” keeps running to his mother, “Lorraine Lyon”, for help. CEO of the largest Debt Collection Agency in the country, the “Queen of Debt” is unimpressed with her son’s choice in a wife and spares no opportunity to voice her disapproval. However, when Dot’s unusual behavior catches the attention of Minnesota Police Deputy “Indira Olmstead” and North Dakota Deputy “Witt Farr”, Lorraine appoints her in-house counsel and primary advisor, “Danish Graves”, to aid her daughter-in-law. After all, family is family. But Dot has an uncanny knack for survival. And with her back to the wall, she’s about to show why one should never provoke a mother Lyon.
Along with Temple, the new season of “Fargo” also stars Jon Hamm, Joe Keery, Sam Spruell, David Rysdahl, and Jennifer Jason Leigh. Other cast includes Richa Moorjani, Lamorne Morris, and Dave Foley.
Noah Hawley leads the creative team on “Fargo” Year 5.  Warren Littlefield produces through his The Littlefield Company. He also serves as executive producer with Steve Stark, Kim Todd, and Joel & Ethan Coen. “Fargo” is a co-production between MGM Television and FX Productions.
The first two episodes of “Fargo” Season 5 premiere on FX on November 21. They will be available to stream the next day on Hulu, too. Watch the trailer for “Fargo” Year 5 below.
