Fargo Season 5 Teaser: Dot's Definitely In No Mood for A "Tumble"

Juno Temple's Dorothy “Dot” Lyon gets the spotlight in the newest teaser for FX and Noah Hawley's Fargo Season 5, premiering on November 21st.



Article Summary

  • Fargo Installment 5 featuring Juno Temple as Dot Lyon premieres November 21 on FX (and the following day on Hulu).
  • The latest teaser offers some clues to Dot's backstory - and how she makes it clear that she's not in the mood for a "tumble".
  • FX's Fargo is produced by showrunner, writer & director Noah Hawley and his production company 26 Keys.
  • The anthology series is a spinoff series set within the universe of Joel and Ethan Coen's classic film.

Maybe it's too soon to say this since the fifth installment/season of FX and Noah Hawley's Fargo still has a few weeks to go before it begins gracing our screens. But so far, we're definitely on "Team Dot" and hope that she gets to walk away with a happy ending. That's because there's something about the way that Juno Temple is presenting Dorothy "Dot" Lyon that we can't help but root for her – which is a scary thought since we don't quite know her backstory yet. But we do get some more insight into Dot's double life in the newest teaser for the returning series – including just how clear Dot can make things when it comes to her not being in the mood for a "tumble."

After an unexpected series of events lands Dorothy "Dot" Lyon (Juno Temple) in hot water with the authorities, this seemingly typical Midwestern housewife suddenly is plunged back into a life she thought she had left behind.

North Dakota Sheriff Roy Tillman (Jon Hamm) has been searching for Dot for a long time. A rancher, preacher, and 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 (Joe Keery), 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 (Sam Spruell), 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" (David Rysdahl), keeps running to his mother, "Lorraine Lyon" (Jennifer Jason Leigh), 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" (Richa Moorjani) and North Dakota Deputy "Witt Farr" (Lamorne Morris), Lorraine appoints her in-house counsel and primary advisor, "Danish Graves" (Dave Foley), 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."
