Karl Urban, Dominic Cooper, Mark Strong; several others. And Bateman is probably at the top of that list. And with him showing his directorial chops in this, at this point he pretty much just needs to be attached to a project in any capacity for me to be willing to give it a shot. |
Really great show that you’ll find doesn’t drop off with each season.

Finished S1 and thought that everything was well done, save for the story, which was predictable.
I’m going to binge Ted Lasso beginning tonight and will pivot back to Ozark later this month. |

I guess they are filming now in Atlanta. I know it has to do with money but I can't figure out why they don't shoot this in Missouri.

It's a Win-Win for the producers. |
Cannot wait for this. When the pandemic started I was suggested to start this. Probably one of my favorite binges since Breaking Bad.

Season 4 dropped today. Only 7 episodes
|
I hope it's better than last season. Really felt like Bateman phoned it in.
|
Binged all of Part 1 of S4 today….excellent as usual, show is so good.
Sucks that it’s ending with Part 2 of S4 but at least they have a clear vision and I’m sure it’ll be epic. |
Trying to get through this season and all its convoluted and ridiculous plots.

I can’t believe it took me to season 4 to figure out the actor who plays Wyatt, also played the little brother in Charlie St. Cloud. Also, hard to believe Jonah is only supposed to be 14 years old this season, he comes across like he is old enough to be in college.

Alhonna the resort that the show is based off, just got the Blue Cat Lodge sign from the set. They are suppose to have it up this summer sometime so people can come by and take photos.

So, where do we rank the big three in drug shows. Ozark, breaking bad, better call Saul. Easy to remember that breaking bad had quite a few filler episodes. I actually prefer ozark because it’s so tight. Every episode and scene is so damn meaningful. And better call Saul is setting up one hell of a payoff in the final season |
Marty looking at Wendy like she's an evil bitch when she was setting up Jonah for a fall was intense.

Ozark has a nicer overall color pallete. So there's that too. BTW: When Batemen was trying to get the guy out of the funeral home, that was hysterical and acted like only he could do. |

Powerful mid season ending. But of course we'll have to wait to finish the final season cause Netflix is run by greedy assholes. Oh well I'm sure it'll be worth the wait.
Ruth is my favorite character on Ozark and Julia Garner's acting has been incredible. She can be so tough nosed yet so vulnerable at the same time (all while making it so authentic ) such a talented young actress. |
I binged season four yesterday. I've watched the whole series since it started. A few thoughts without hopefully not being a spoiler:
You have to suspend a LOT of belief with shows like Ozark and Yellowstone. Not sure how many people have been killed in those shows, but per capita its higher than St. Louis! If all these people who had been killed in Camdenton really happened it would be national news. Same deal with Yellowstone. But without gun violence, neither show would be as interesting. What did they do with the Sheriff's car? Can't wait for the forensic digs by law enforcement on Darlene's north pasture! Also, can poppies even be grown in Missouri? I don't think we have the climate? How does Darlene keep all the plant workers quiet in the processing plant? She's got about six or more guys working in there? No KC Mob Boss would travel to see a psychopath -who shot his son's junk off- alone. He'd have some muscle and protection with him. Finally, nobody, and I mean NOBODY on Ozark is likeable. Everybody is evil and corrupt. The entire Byrd family. Darlene's crew. Ruth's family. The Mob. The Cops. The Feds. The Cartel. Even the guy who runs the Lazy-O Motel is a degenerate gambler. The Chicago PI poking around is a coke head. The only person who seems normal is Wendy's dad, and he's an abusive father and pious hypocrite. So please, name one person, ONE PERSON on the show who isn't sleazy. Maybe the new sheriff. And what was the deal with the auto accident at the beginning of the first episode? Foreshadowing the end??? |

And that's coming from me not giving a SHIT about the old lady that regularly puts 00 in whoever is in her dining room and marries a teenager. RE: Rooting interests. I think one can easily root for Marty. He's the only one actively trying to end the crime. But he's done a lot of bad shit, so whatever. But I think it's hard to root against Ruth. Yeah, she did some bad shit, but she was doing bad shit before. She at least does bad shit and cares about some semblance of life for her family. |
I'm actively rooting for Wendy to die a horrible death. What an evil ****.
|
Finished part 1 the other day. It's still an decent show, but this season is a cluster**** of a mess. Every character just does the stupidest thing possible except for Wendy. She does the most evil thing possible and somehow she can blackmail/make a connection with every single powerful person she meets. We're a few episodes from seeing her convince the president to get control of the Nukes for some reason.
This show got way too big and way too convoluted. The FBI/Cartel shit might be the stupidest most fake shit I've seen in a show that takes itself seriously. |
If you guys haven't seen the movie Bad Words, check it out. It stars Bateman being the biggest dick possible to a bunch of middle schoolers and their parents. I watched it again the other night and forgot how funny it was

Thanks for the rec. I hadn't heard of it. Another one I hadn't heard of was This is Where I Leave You. It was really good. Not as funny but funny enough. I almost fell out of my chair with the line "Yep. And I've got her purse." ROFL |
Anyone catching up on this? I'm three episodes in, and I feel like I have no idea who is trying to get over on who, but someone is DEFINTITELY going to end up getting over.

Can you imagine if Osage/Sunrise Beach had all this shit going on for real? Murders everyday, cartel thugs, mob, Ozark mafia.......hell, maybe it does?? Lol |

After finishing the last season, I genuinely hate everyone on the show besides Marty. His arc from lawful good to lawful evil was incredible to see unfold. Fantastic writing (with suspended belief), story telling and acting.
Imo, the ending was satisfying and stayed true to the franchise. I'll wait a bit more until more here have finished to discuss. |
Finished it. I liked the ending but the final season wasn't as good as the others as a whole. Too convoluted with way too many things going on. The writing seemed to slip a little. Still probably a top 10 show of all time tho imo

Yeah, I'm pretty indifferent on the ending. Not sure what exactly I expected but I think I was secretly hoping there'd be slightly different fates for some of the characters. All in all though, great show and stayed interesting to the very end. I don't put it in my top 10 but it's better than most.

I also dislike Wendy more than Skyler White from Breaking Bad. Which I didn't think was possible.

I have two episodes left til I'm done. I loathe Wendy.
|
I thoroughly enjoyed this last block of episodes.
Nice, clean ending to a wonderful show. |
I thought the car wreck scene was unnecessary. Do you think everyone just walks away and goes about their day after something like that?
|
Oh, and Wendy is starting to look like Darlene Snell at the very end.
|
A better ending would have been the Byrd family all goes into an all night diner, and Marty gets up to go to the bathroom...

I didn't really care for the ending. Just feels like they could've done better than that.

I would describe this show as "Scarface" meets "Green Acres" meets "Family Ties."

Questions they left wide open:
1. Do the Byrd's have to still run the Casino? There is nobody there now to launder the money. The whole point was them trying to get out of this mess and they didn't. 2. What happened to 3? Does he get Ruth's money and the land? 3. Rachel? Will she stay at the Casino or be dead or leave? |
1) Three will inherit the casino/cash/new house. I think Rachel takes over the short term.
2) yes, he gets everything as the lone surviving Langmore. 3) If Three wants her to run it she does. With the Byrde’s in Chicago I’d think he would keep her there for operations. |

2- I though there was something about 3 getting the money and land. 3- Good question, and one that I asked immediately. |
The ending left such a bad taste in my mouth. So rushed and overall a really big let down. oh well
|
How about a prequel centered on the Langmores (and maybe the Snells)?

Either it’s a happily ever after or it’s a rushed mess that no one is happy about. Why is this so difficult? |
Man we are inching along the 2nd half of the 4th season.... I don't think there has been a show I have hated more after loving previous seasons. This show has been on a steep decline since like mid 2nd season. An hour episode is damn near torture at this point.
