It's a fantastic show! IMO, one of the best of the last 20 years. But, it's not particularly accessible (like the Coen brothers stuff, although this is done by Noah Hawley).
First, it's a dark comedy
Second, each season is its own self contained narratives - although there are characters that will play roles in multiple seasons.
Third, they're stylistically different from one another (though, not as much as Coen brothers films), and not just in tone but in how they film it and what post production techniques they use.
Fourth, they're generally a slow burn, and while they are like one long 8 hour film, there's typically an episode per season that has little to do with the main plot.
Fifth, aside from the first season, the show is not very predictable. A lot of people get offended when the story doesn't go the way they want it.
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
