Many popular and successful crime thriller shows nowadays are curiously set in the past decades.Vought Risingis revealed to be taking place in the ‘50s, a time period that’s similar toFargo’s fourth season. The famed black comedy crime drama follows a storyline involving a ruling crime organization in Kansas City, Missouri.
When someone mentions murder mystery,True Detectivemust be the first thing that comes to mind. Season 3 was set in the ‘80s, taking place in the Ozarks over three decades where partner detectives investigate the case of two missing children.
It remains to be seen howVought Risingwould compete with these iconic crime thrillers, but hopefully, it would find and take some valuable inspiration from them.
