Any Ozark fans?

I thought season 3 was fantastic. This show is better than Breaking Bad and that is a bold statement. Great character development. Great soundtrack.

[Spiritof96]

I am almost through season three. It's very good.

I don't think it is Breaking Bad good, but it is really interesting a fun. (I don't know that fun is the right word)

[Blue Heaven]

Yeah definitely not fun, but I get what you mean. Some fantastic acting in this show. I really came to like Ben a lot but Ruth steals the show. Outside of Marty she is my favorite character.

Great show. Gets slow in spots but keep wirh it. This may be the best show I have ever watched. Engrossing characters.

It's still a second-rate "Breaking Bad," but it has a lot of its own charms and strengths.

I didn't think this season was quite as good as the first two, but I'm still very much invested.

It’s good - not Breaking Bad or The Americans good, but good. If I’d watched the show before my daughter was born, I’d probably have named her Ruth (who was also in The Americans). We’re almost through the 3rd season.

Someone described it as the plot of Breaking Bad with the characters of Justified.

That seems right.

The Americans was fantastic! Loved that show... It was rare in that it pulled off a rare satisfying season finale. (if a little far fetched)

[KCKUKFan]

The Americans might be the best show in this prestige era that never gets talked about.

And Spirit is right -- the finale was actually satisfactory.

There have been a number of good finales in television history, and a shitload of bad, but very rarely have there been perfect finales. I can only think of a few off the top of my head: "The Americans," "Six Feet Under," "M*A*S*H," "The Shield," "The Leftovers."

[Dwight Schrute]

The Americans get lost among all the great shows of the last decade, but I thought it was fantastic. It was amazing how they made Russian Spies sympathetic.

And agree totally, the finale was almost perfect.

I haven't seen this, but I'm more interested than ever based on the season 3 reviews.

Still, when the show began I remember thinking, "So, it's breaking bad in Arkansas," and nothing I've heard since has changed my mind. True or false?

It's isn't really Breaking Bad. I get the comparison but they are thematically and artistically very different.

The main characters are fundamentally different at the outset than Walter White and his wife. It might be a little like BB if BB started in the middle of season 3.

I like Marty Byrde FAR more than WW and I think his story is more relatable and interesting. The supporting characters in Ozark aren't nearly as good and the overall show isn't the same tour de force as BB. But I like them both. There is an attorney character that shows up that I really like.
