HBO pretty much shelved the show until Nick was ready. It was a metric shit ton of work for him and season two was even more difficult.

The addition of David Milch should be a huge game changer, IF he can stay focused.

Loved the first season. Watched it twice.

Still havent seen a single episode of the 2nd season.

So my boy, Graham Gordy, is going to be helping with the writing on this bad boy.

Bummed as hell that his project Quarry didn't get renewed, but I'm glad to see him getting to work on a project of this caliber.

I've got a pitch for Season 4. I'm not above bribery.

So Season 3 is going to be cast in Northwest Arkansas. Evidently it will involve some grisly crime and how it effects subsequent generations and will juggle three different periods/timelines. Sounds promising and the Ozarks, as we know, are having a moment... so could be cool.

Graham is really, really good with period pieces and setting a historic and regional tone (if you've never checked out Quarry, do so). Not that he's the driving force or anything, but I hope he'll have a heavy impact on the feel of the show.

thanks for the link Baby Lee! Very hyped for this.

Hopefully much closer to season 1 than season 2

Couldn't wait for every episode of season 1. I think we never watched season 2 past the second episode.

Season 1 was perfect. Can't get a better cast than that

Might give it a chance with the next storyline taking place in the Ozarks. I'm assuming same location that was center stage of the Netflix series with Jason Bateman.

Yeah, season 2 using LA as the backdrop was a really poor decision. LA has/had been done to death with detective stories. I hope that person was fired. Ozark copied and then did their own spin on Season 1.


I like exploring the backwoods culture of unique areas in the US. It's untapped material. It's not all "deliverance" cliches.
