    I'm sorry to say that Season 2 of Ozark is missing the original mojo and credibility of Season 1.

    I still love to watch, but it's now like watching a show long past its prime. In a nutshell, Season 2 of Ozark shows a more power-hungry Wendy, a more defiant Charlotte, Jonah taking care of a baby (?), and a more distracted Marty. If Jason Bateman was in the scene, the scene always

    I still love to watch, but it's now like watching a show long past its prime. In a nutshell, Season 2 of Ozark shows a more power-hungry Wendy, a more defiant Charlotte, Jonah taking care of a baby (?), and a more distracted Marty. If Jason Bateman was in the scene, the scene always seemed to end with him excusing himself to take a phone call, or answering a text and then exiting with "I gotta go!"

    It's just gone too far now. The Cartel or the Snells would've killed them long, long ago. I love Linney and Bateman, and if they make another season, I'll still watch... But this season is like watching "Godfather 3"; or the first prequel of Star Wars. It's just hollow compared to the original magic of Season 1.

    Don't know how they did it but they managed to develop every character to the point that I couldn't care less about any of them. It got downright annoying towards the end. I was seriously hoping the cartel would just put them all out of their misery. Don't bother with season 3 Netflix - you wrecked a good first season with a pretty bad second.

    Liked Season #1 and Season 2 looks good, BUT, not to sound prudish, the language is too over-the-top. We can't watch the show with the front door open because of all the swear words...After a while all the "F@cks", "Pr!cks". and "C@nts", becomes numbing..Profanity should be the seasoning, not the main course. Too bad cause the story draws you in.....Sorry Forgot score..Deserves better than "0"

    The illusion of depth without any actual there there is an Ozark specialty. By the end of season two, it’s dragged itself to exactly where you’d think it would go, and racked up quite a body count (also proving it hasn’t really learned the lessons of the shows that came before it, which did their best to hold off on killing major characters). But none of it feels as if it has any meaning beyond getting from the end of season one to the start of season three. It’s a bridge to nowhere that keeps building itself right in front of you.

    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.

    Most of what was good in season one remains good, most importantly Linney. ... But then there are a few excruciating characters and subplots this time around.
