Up to about halfway through 4 now, still like it!
Excellent program and can see the Breaking Bad similarities.
Bad (but likeable) man gets involved in gang crime and spends most of his time escaping from near impossible positions to keep his family and himself alive.
Agree with Otis there are long times with seemingly no action but its all brewing up and the occasional extreme violence keeps it going.
Can't wait for series 2 and more, this thing has got legs!!
Finished it. A solid 7.5/8 out of 10. Couple of moments made me rolls my eyes, you can tell they are hoping for several seasons with some of the decisions made.
Hopefully Netflix pick it up for a second season.
What were the eye roll moments, Hill? I didn't pick up on any, but maybe be it's just me. Were they obvious?
Going to try and watch the last couple later!
The memories episode wasnt the best.

I really, really dislike flashbacks in any show. Even though they can give a back story, to me they for all the world just come across as padding and I always think that all could be simply explained with just a couple of sentences of dialogue.
I thought Breaking Bad was superb, but even with that I got bored of the flashbacks to Walter's oast wuth his business partner etc.
Couldn't disagree more about things being explained with a couple of sentences of dialogue. I cringe when they do that in films.
"Hello sister how are you on your wedding day, we are orphans aren't we, mum and dad died in a car crash when we were 7 and you've got a rocky history with alcohol"
Well yeah, of course, don't literally mean a couple of sentences of dialogue, but within a chat. Too much padding for me and Lost was a prime example of that. First few flashbacks were interesting, but then they did it for just about every bloody character.
I don't think in Ozark we needed to see why Marty got involved with the drug dealer. Very easy to see from how the character was portrayed and his lack of empathy for anyone else pretty much apart from his family and his arrogance and self Importance, that he would be exactly the sort of person to get involved with this without feeling any sense of remorse or wrangle with moral dilemma.
Found it superfluous.
Same. What a waste of a brilliant show in the end.It gave a decent bit of backstory for every main character. I liked it anyway.
Don't get me started on Lost. Loved and hated it.
Yes, true.Great series. I think the limited flashback in this helped give the context of him, his family and how things changed for them.
Fair point. Some seem superfluous and serve as mere padding don't they.I'm another that liked the flashback episode in this whereas normally I tend to skip them.
I sometimes do fast forward through flashbacks.I tend to gloss over them a lot of the time, the Morgan episode in the last WD season was meant to be one of the better ones but I couldn't be arsed.
Yup. I didn't want it to end and it's set up nicely for the next drug king to show his face.We enjoyed the series a lot, cannot wait for the second.
Just finished watching Season 1 of Stranger Things - was very impressed.
WooooopOzark new series 31st August.
Really looking forwards to it,
