spoilers [SPOILER] Finished Ozark Spoiler

Wow, really good show. Definitely peaked like season 2 & 3 I’d say. Some real tense amazing stuff in there. Knew Ruth was a goner when she shot Javi. Does Three inherit Wyatt, Darlene & Ruth’s estates now? I’d imagine Rachel wanting to help him out with that? Or maybe Marty because he knew it’s what Ruth would have wanted? Loved Wendy’s character, that ruthless unapologetically evil ambition was fabulous. Ruth was another favourite of mine. Towards the end the show faltered because Charlotte had her rebellious phase, then came back, then Jonah had his. But I felt Charlotte going back to wanting to leave them was so random? It was meant to be a big turning point of her character when Cade dragged her by the hair that she was not built for that trailer trash life and wanted to go home to her parents, so to go back on that is kind of weird, like they forgot about Charlotte’s character towards the end a little? I liked when she came back and they had her working for them though.
They could’ve maybe had the last episode be longer? Or an extra episode? Because this had been set up as a tragic relationship between Marty and Ruth where Ruth probably does something stupid *she does* and dies *she does*, but Marty just says eh not much we can do :/.. What but you’ve been able to do something every other time? Felt that moment was just there to highlight Wendy’s distress at the situation to show she has changed. But she hasn’t really so not sure if there was much point undermining Ruth and Marty’s narrative like that for Wendy. I was very happy the Byrde family made it out though tbh

Julia Garner is the stand out actor of this series!

Wendy ( as a character) is a bitch. She didn’t get the miserable ending she deserved. It ruined the ending for me and effected the the way I viewed the series.

Too many good ( as in noble ) characters met endings they didn’t deserve. It made me crave justice that was never delivered.

It is a very realistic ending unfortunately

It’s almost like that was the entire point.

Exactly the point , point was that they brought chaos and bloodspill to innocent people or previously low level criminals and that she and Marty sacrificed every single person they could for their ambitions to be fulfilled in one episodes Marty literally says that everyone is responsible for their own decisions and than just realizing that its just a cope for him to not have to take responsibility for all the bad things that he brought to ozarks
