Ding ding ding. They wanted to shoot in the grand glaze arm. They went and did pre filming scouting and figured out that Missouri will not give pretty much free range for production companies to set up for no cost whatsoever. It's the same reason Walking Dead still shoots in Georgia and not Virginia/Maryland now.
Not to mention there is absolutely no reason to give tax incentives to a show that will not give the local populace a favorable image. They kinda shit on the locals with the narrative of the show. Most people who live on the Ozarks are definitely not the bumbling dumbasses they portray.They are well off retirees.
Other than that the show was fantastic. Loved it. I think it'll get better on seasons 2 & 3.
