Ozark
« on: September 04, 2018, 07:40:28 PM »
  My wife just recommended this Netflix series to me last night-WOW!  Only thru 4 episodes(4 hours) and I can’t wait to dig in again tonight.  The closest thing I can associate this with is breaking bad, but that really wouldn’t be terribly accurate.  Except for Jason Bateman and Laura linney, the cast seems relatively benign, but really well played.  Amazing how anyone can come up with this stuff-who thinks this way?  I’m hooked!!

It's a fantastic show. Wait til you get to the season 1 finale. Most intense 90 minutes of television I have ever watched. Haven't started the second season yet but its next on the list.

The daughter of the trailer park family really starts to steal the show the 2nd half of the first season.

I knew I should've waited but instead, my dumbass is slogging thru Jack Ryan.  It's a low budget Homeland, not terrible, but want to finish it before binge watching another show.

Glad I didn't start that then. I've had my doubts.

We chose Godless over Jack Ryan - not done with the one season but so far it's been solid.  The discussion around Ozark is how far back into season one do we need to go to not be totally lost.

Godless is also a fantastic show. Jeff Daniels as Frank Griffin is one of the better villain performances I have seen in a long while. Up there with Neegan from Walking Dead and the Chicken Man from Breaking Bad.

episode #1 was the fuse that lit the bomb for me.  me thinks if you try to start any later, you will catch yourself wanting to go back to see what you missed

  i'm at episode# 6/season 1- i wonder if they really knew what they were going to do with her from the beginning or if she kind of evolved as the show did.  they had so many options with her.  depends on how many seasons they crank out, someone starts bitching about money, beats his/her significant other, decides to "go in another direction"... etc

Always been a Bateman fan. In Ozark he hit it out of the park.

Episode 2 at a minimum for Ozark. It's worth it.

Honestly, I saw season 2 of Ozark dropped and Better Call Saul took a backseat. This season of BCS has been meh at best.

Agreed on BCS. Quickly losing interest as we meld into the Breaking Bad world. Haven't started Ozark S2 yet but was pretty interested in S1.

Ozark is outstanding.

No issues with this season of Better Call Saul. Still really good.

I should have been more clear - we've seen season one.  We decided to rewatch the last 3 of season one before starting season two.

I think they knew.  She played Kimmy in The Americans and it was clear from that troubling turn that she would be a star.
