Anyone else watched this ?
I've watched four episodes so far and it's really good so far. Highly recommended. Last edited by JTM45; 23-07-2017 at 10:58 PM. |

on episode 4 and really enjoying it
This drama series stars Jason Bateman as Marty Byrde, a financial planner who relocates his family from Chicago to a summer resort community in the Ozarks. With wife Wendy and their two kids in tow, Marty is on the move after a money- laundering scheme goes wrong, forcing him to pay off a substantial debt to a Mexican drug lord in order to keep his family safe. While the Byrdes' fate hangs in the balance, the dire circumstances force the fractured family to reconnect. |

It's like a cross between Breaking Bad and Schitt's Creek.
I couldn't get into it tho. |

he has to launder like $8 million in this back water place or his family die so he has to contact all these cooky places to take over so her can wash money - like a strip joint and realter, meanwhile he is in cahoots with a local gang redneck family and its a tense relationship all this and try to be an all American family in this tourist resort very like breaking bad as it goes but as TS says with a sprinkle if Schits Creek Its ideal for Cherie |

I think the problem is that the dad isn't likeable at all... like from what I saw he has few redeeming features as a human being but is also boring so you sort of... don't care if he fails and gets killed by organised criminals. Like that wouldn't be a terrible ending.
He plays more or less the same character as Michael Bluth in Arrested Development, except the whole point of the character in that was that he was the boring not-that-likeable straightman to juxtapose all of the completely weird characters (basically everyone else). And... what made Breaking Bad somehow work was that Walter White is oddly charismatic and compelling whilst being a selfish criminal arsehole and a terrible husband/dad. He's a completely awful person and yet you can't take your eyes off him. He's a decent actor but this show needed a more compelling lead IMO. Last edited by Toy Soldier; 22-01-2020 at 04:09 PM. |

Anything remotely comparable will fail so badly (Have you watched BB btw?)

It's a film about the aftermath, basically all about what happens to Jesse, picks up exactly where BB finished, it's really good
