Ozark

Just finished Season Two. I thought it was great - an improvement on the first season, in fact - and I'm a bit bemused by the lukewarm reviews online. Entertaining from start to finish. Deaths galore. Laura Linney is particularly outstanding and makes her character's speedy development into a major antihero seem believable.

Just finished 2nd series off. Have to agree, that one pips the 1st. The last 4 episodes in particular were great and left things hanging nicely for a 3rd series.

We just finished the second series last night, thought it was excellent and echo that it was an improvement on a very good first season. Cade was an excellent addition as a nasty b*****d on the domestic front, whilst the real threat in the Cartel loomed large. Disappointing that Peter Mullan isn't going to be in the third season (assuming there'll be one) though, great actor.

Bateman wants 6 months off for more family time to give the writers sufficient time to get the next one just right. Apparently he thinks series 2 was rushed and could've been bettered given time. I have last 3 to go and suspect Mullen comment should've been a spoiler.

The full series had been out to view on Netflix for a few weeks when I posted that, so I wouldn’t consider it a spoiler. sorry if anything was ruined for you, but I certainly wouldn’t be coming in to a tv programme’s thread if I hadn’t caught up with it, especially one where the entire series is released in a batch. Chance you see something you don’t want to is always going to be there.

Just finished season 2 and echoing the sentiments here. One the best netflix originals in my humble opinion when you consider the hype (and arguably rightly so) that the likes of Stranger Things and Maniac get. Wasn't sure how Id take Bateman being an Arrested Development uber fanboy but he's got something brilliant here.

Just binged the new season of Ozark too.
I thought it was decent, started off quite slow but the last few episodes were really good.
(Spoilers ahead).
There were some ridiculous story lines though. Like Wyatt dating the OAP, Sam seemingly having the brain of a 4 year old and just doing what he's told despite the FBI breathing down his neck and also the casino owner "pushing" his wife over the barrier and then just walking away (Don't even think they were mentioned again, odd how the FBI never looked into that).
Kinda wish it wasn't called Ozark so they could get out of there and do something different.

Ruth calling Wendy a “fucking bitch wolf” is an utterly astonishing piece of television.

That was the best season yet. A brilliant programme. Jason Bateman’s continued ability to wear his sleeves rolled at all times is absolutely unrivalled as well.
