Fargo’s fourth season will premiere on September 27 at 9 PM EST (6 PM PST). Good news for patient fans: this series will begin by showing two episodes back to back. After that, it will return to a standard release schedule, with one episode airing every Sunday until November 29.  As ever, there’ll be tense moments, a star-studded cast, and someone in way over their head. But as we’ll explain, there’s a lot that’s new as well. Take a look below to find out how to watch Fargo season 4 online from anywhere.

Note that we only recommend using official sources for streaming Fargo online. Third-party sites are often unreliable, providing low-quality video and streams that can be taken down at any moment. There are several legitimate ways to watch Fargo online, and broadcasters in multiple countries, which means you have nothing to gain by using shady streaming sites.

The fourth season of Fargo will air exclusively on region-locked services. This means that if you’re traveling abroad, you’ll need a Virtual Private Network (VPN) to watch it on your usual home services.

How to stream Fargo season 4 from abroad with a VPN

It’s surprisingly easy to get around regional content restrictions with a VPN. Below is our quick five-step guide to streaming Fargo season 4 from anywhere in the world.

Here’s how to watch Fargo season 4 online from anywhere:

  • First off, sign up for a suitable VPN. We recommend using NordVPN but ExpressVPN and Surfshark are two great alternatives.
  • Install the VPN app on whichever devices you plan to stream on. Generally, you can connect about five devices simultaneously per account but this varies slightly between providers.
  • Decide which of the official broadcasters you’d like to watch on.
  • Log in and connect to a VPN server in the relevant location. You’d use an American server to watch on FX, for instance, while an Australian server is needed for SBS.
  • Visit your chosen service and try watching something. Your video should load right away, but if not, clearing your cookies and reloading should fix most issues. For further assistance, it’s best to contact your VPN’s support team directly.

Remember that Fargo will be airing live. This means that last-minute technical problems could cause you to miss the start of the episode. As such, we recommend spending a few minutes ahead of time making sure everything works as expected.

How to watch Fargo season 4 on US TV

The fourth series of Fargo will air exclusively on FX, meaning you can stream it online using FXNow. This service is free to use, and if you have cable TV, you can simply sign in with your provider details to watch online. Luckily, it’s also very easy to watch FX online without cable.

FuboTV, Sling TV, Hulu with Live TV, and YouTube TV all carry this network. These platforms cost between $30 and $60 USD per month, and each includes a free trial period (usually one week). This is a pretty expensive way to watch just one show but there is a workaround if you don’t mind waiting slightly longer.

New Fargo episodes will be added to Hulu’s on-demand library the day after they air. In other words, you can cut the cost of watching to just $5.99 per month by being a little patient. As a bonus, this service currently offers all three prior seasons, so it’s great for anyone looking to get caught up before season 4 begins.

All of the above services are region-locked. This means that if you’re abroad, you’ll need a VPN to use them. Don’t have a VPN yet? NordVPN comes with a risk-free 30-day money-back guarantee, which means you can try it for yourself and claim a full refund if it fails to impress.

Can I live stream Fargo outside of the US?

Fargo has something of a cult following, so it should be no surprise that it’s airing in several countries around the world. Take a look below to see which network is showing it where you live:

Australia

Australian fans can watch the new season of Fargo on SBS just a few weeks after its US debut; it’ll premiere at 8:30 PM AEST on October 8. While this network’s streaming platform is called SBS On Demand, rest assured you’ll be able to watch live or on-demand, whatever works best for you. Best of all, this service is completely free, although you will be asked to create an account before watching anything.

The first three seasons are available too, so SBS has something to offer whether you’re new to the show or a long-time viewer. It’s only available in Australia, though, so if you’re abroad, you’ll have to use a VPN to watch.

Canada

Streaming Fargo season 4 online is actually really easy if you have cable TV. All you have to do is visit FX Now Canada and sign in with your provider details. This will allow you to watch new episodes on-demand the day after they’re shown in the US (though not live, unfortunately). There is currently no way to watch FX Now in Canada without a cable TV subscription.

If you’d like to refresh your memory before season 4 begins, you’ll find seasons 1–3 on Netflix Canada. Plans start at $9.99 CAD per month, although there’s no free trial period anymore.

These services above are both geo-restricted. However, you can still use them from abroad by connecting to a Canadian VPN server.

UK

Channel 4 has shown all three prior seasons of Fargo, which is great news since you can watch this channel for free via All 4. The network hasn’t yet confirmed whether it’ll be broadcasting the fourth season as well, but we shouldn’t have to wait too long to find out. Traditionally, it starts airing Fargo about a month behind US broadcasters. Netflix includes the first three seasons as part of its UK library, so if you’re looking to catch up, now’s the time.

All 4 and Netflix are region-locked. This means that you may not be able to stream Fargo from outside the UK without a VPN.

Fargo season 4: plot, cast, and rumors

So what exactly do we know about season 4 of Fargo? Quite a bit, it turns out! We know that it’s set in 1950 and that Chris Rock will play the main character, Loy Cannon, a crime boss who’s struggling to negotiate his uneasy alliance with the Kansas City Mafia. Of course, as the official trailer shows, both sides are scheming to undermine the other behind the scenes.

It just wouldn’t be Fargo without an ensemble cast. This time around, familiar faces in supporting roles include Timothy Olyphant, Jack Huston, Kelsey Chow, and Jack Huston. There will surely be plenty more guest stars, but the only way to find out who they are is to watch when the new season begins on September 27.
