Allison Tolman- Fargo
The FX miniseries Fargo has been one of the most satisfying television runs in quite a while due to the cinematic quality and tight writing it has in its arsenal, but one of the standouts has been Tolman’s character, Molly. Molly is unlike many female characters on television: she’s three dimensional; she’s often the most level headed character as well as the most logical and the bravest. She’s someone who wants to do good because that’s her moral obligation and Tolman conveys all of this. She’s a very subtle actor, particularly compared to many on the list, but she does a lot with very little. She can be funny, she can be dramatic and she can spark romantic chemistry. She’s the whole deal.
