    Just about all the choices are bad in this season of Ozark, making this season your best Labor Day weekend binge.

    The show’s writing is sharp and smart; its acting is clever and curt. Toss in that casino wild card and you’ve got a season that’s just as remarkable as the first.

    The echoes of "Breaking Bad" have grown louder in Ozark...While by no means a great show, the intense second season cements its status as an eminently binge-worthy one.

    Ozark is conspicuously going about correcting past wrongs. As a result, it feels newly and brazenly confident, steamrolling through story at a pace that seems to reflect an active decision on the part of the show's writers to find that perfect sweet spot between the arty and smart, unpretentious pulp.

    Ozark is still a compelling place to visit, but, like the Byrdes, I'm itching for an endgame. [20 Aug - 2 Sep 2018, p.11]

The characters are more fleshedThe story arcs in season 2 are gripping and unpredictable and successfully steers clear of feeling contrived. The characters are more fleshed out and every one of them has a moment to shine. The writers made some real efforts to paint three-dimensional scenarios around three dimensional characters and it works very well. This is an excellent follow-up to season 1 and well worth your time.… Full Review »

Scenes, music, colours - as in S01 - perfect. Acting - first class, just huuuge respect - especially Laura Linney, such incredibly goood actress. (also applause to Julia Garner for acting). It lost something in the plot but it is still very good, original show, worth every minute spent watching it. Very recommended!… Full Review »
