Kinda felt like they could get 20 more out of it without running out of gas but oh well - 14 is better than 10.

the wife reminds me of Katy Segal's character in Sons of Anarchy. I loved the character at the beginning, but grew to hate her because she was always stirring up everything lo.
I'm down for the wife to get wiped out. |

Marty definitely needs her shrewd decision making, but I just don't like her very much.

And we as the audience can see that she has clearly screwed up biggly a couple of times now. And that despite this fact, she continues to operate as though she's infallible. Marty is almost certainly more intelligent than she is. Now she's a more creative and dynamic operative than he is, but that makes her more of an idea person than the decisionmaker. She is undeniably critical. As noted - Marty needs her ability to navigate these waters. But she's not a CEO - she's a Department head. Her best role is chief lieutenant and she's unwilling to accept that fact. |

I thought the brother was well played. Went from somewhat normal aside from the freak out as a substitute teacher, to gradually getting , more crazy as he was off his meds etc. was very well done, I was so sick of Cade. . Like an evil Slingblade. |

I finally started binging Ozark last night and got through about 2 and half episodes before going to bed.
What I saw was absolutely outstanding, from the cast, to direction to story to score to overall production quality. I'm going to avoid this thread until I've caught up but I am stoked to see the next 27.5 episodes. Jason Bateman is just so good. |

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. |

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. |
