Ozark on netflix. The series has a Breaking Bad feel to it. One season so far and I am half way through that first season. It is very interesting. Some a lot of points to build the plot from. Best thing I have seen in a while.





Hope you enjoy!

There aren't enough lifetimes to watch all the "Netflix Originals" and most of them are crap.

Indeed. And Ozark isn't great. It's okay. We stopped watching about 9 episodes in.

So, you stopped one episode from the season finale? Did it really take nine for you to figure out maybe it wasn't for you?

I've watched the whole first season. Like you with Ozarks, I bailed on Breaking Bad but did so during the third episode. I just couldn't get behind it and knew it wasn't going to be for me.

Working terrorism and transnational criminal org issues over the past decade of my career, I really have a hard time with the glorification of criminals these programs show. While there is some reality to what they depict they aren't documentaries. Instead they glamorize violence, criminals and various illicit activities.

I was able to stick with Ozarks though just because I'm somewhat intrigued by what most people would find the most boring part of the show and that's the money laundering angle. The family angle is interesting as well and then how Bateman's character is able to pull stuff out of his ass to save face for anther day. It will be interesting to see how he is able or if he is able to keep doing that. There certainly seems to be a more cerebral context to Ozarks than Breaking Bad.
