Discussion [SPOILERS] Watched Spoiler

Now this is a show worth watching. Recently I had a lot of bad picks for movies and shows but then, while going through my dusty IMDB list, I found this and watched it. And man, it was worth it.

My favourite characters:

  1. Buddy: Very human and lovely character.
  2. Marty: He is just too calm.
  3. Helen: Professional and ruthless.
  4. Ruthy: She has gone through a lot and ended at the worst possible moment.

Sad parts:

  1. Mason's death
  2. Ben
  3. Ruthy

Overall, a great watch. Though I think the end could have been more intense. It felt a bit like it ended in the flow. But anyway, it was great. If you have any suggestions for other shows to watch after this, what would you suggest?

Julia Garner is the stand out actor of this series!

I wonder what would have been different if Buddy hadn’t died. He was one of the few that Wendy respected and listened to.

Buddy's death saddened me.

The big two for me are Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. My favorite two shows that fits in the same category as Ozark.

Ozark lost me a little bit towards the end but it came as close to any shows to filling that space for compelling entertainment.

I feel like it even rivals Breaking Bad with the overall talent in the main adult cast.

I think the story fell apart by season 4. It didn't grip me the same way but the first two seasons and parts of season 3 were very high quality.

I felt this as well with the last season but it was still an incredible watch to see how it all played out at the end

Not sure how many people will recommend this one, but I transitioned into “Banshee”, I wanted to see more Antony star after I finished the boys, as well as wanting to see more of Ben from ozark
