It\u2019s been three years, but Fargo is finally back on our screens in a matter of days for its fifth season \u2013 and it\u2019s set to be as chaotic and darkly humorous as ever.<\/p>\n

The new season will star the likes of Juno Temple (Ted Lasso), Jon Hamm (The Morning Show), Joe Keery (Stranger Things) and Jennifer Jason Leigh (Atypical) to name a few, with the series set to explore the impact of personal and financial debts.<\/p>\n

In season 5, we follow Dorothy \u2018Dot\u2019 Lyon, who seems to be a typical Midwestern housewife \u2013 but she is soon plunged back into the life she thought she left behind.<\/p>\n

In the midst of the drama, we also meet North Dakota sheriff Roy Tillman (Hamm), who has been searching for Dot for a long time \u2013 but is an officer who very much thinks he\u2019s above the law.<\/p>\n

As per the synopsis: \u201cWith 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.<\/p>\n

\u201cCEO of the largest debt collection agency in the country, the Queen of Debt is unimpressed with her son\u2019s choice in a wife and spares no opportunity to voice her disapproval.\u201d<\/p>\n

The new season is set to be a welcome return to form, with a fresh batch of characters and a new era and stories to explore.<\/p>\n

But where can UK viewers keep up to date with season 5? Read on for everything you need to know about how to watch the new season.<\/p>\n

The new season of Fargo will premiere on Prime Video<\/strong> here in the UK, and will premiere on FX via Hulu in the US.<\/p>\n

Although fans of Fargo have previously tuned into Netflix and Channel 4 to stream the series, Prime Video is the new home of Fargo after Amazon acquired MGM in 2021, and now holds the international rights to the show.<\/p>\n

While it\u2019s yet to be confirmed whether or not Fargo will be available to watch on Channel 4 at a date in the future, for now, Prime Video users can enjoy watching the season from Wednesday 22nd November\u00a0<\/strong>here in the UK when it premieres with its first two episodes.<\/p>\n

The new season will consist of 10 episodes, following the same pattern as previous seasons, and will be released weekly every Wednesday on Prime Video<\/strong>, the day after the US release.<\/p>\n

The finale is expected to be released on Wednesday 17th January 2024 on Prime Video.<\/p>\n

What is Fargo season 5 about?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

There will be further cases of deception and mysterious characters in the fifth season of Fargo, it seems.<\/p>\n

As per the official logline by FX, the series will follow Temple\u2019s Dot, a \u2018typical\u2019 Midwestern housewife who is suddenly plunged back into a life she thought she had left behind.<\/p>\n

It reads: \u201cNorth Dakota sheriff Roy Tillman (Hamm) 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.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt his side is his loyal but feckless son, \u2018Gator\u201d'(Joe Keery), who is desperate to prove himself to his larger-than-life father. Too bad he\u2019s hopeless. So when it comes to hunting Dot, Roy enlists \u2018Ole Munch\u2019 (Sam Spruell), a shadowy drifter of mysterious origin.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith 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.<\/p>\n

\u201cCEO of the largest debt collection agency in the country, the Queen of Debt is unimpressed with her son\u2019s choice in a wife and spares no opportunity to voice her disapproval.<\/p>\n

\u201cHowever, when Dot\u2019s unusual behaviour 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.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter all, family is family. But Dot has an uncanny knack for survival. And with her back to the wall, she\u2019s about to show why one should never provoke a mother Lyon.\u201d<\/p>
