I ended up agreeing with those who recommended the last season of
Ozark
.
I had only seen the first installment of the Jason Bateman series, which is, let's be clear,
horrible
.
Ozark was
born
when the weekly Netflix premieres were still available,
Laura Linney came out
and, well, you approached her with curiosity.
Even if it was
a
Breaking Bad
jug.
Although we knew that televisions and platforms had for years demanded interchangeable series creators to meet a series of criteria, both thematic and aesthetic, and this precisely smelled to be the obvious answer to some of those requests.
Jason Bateman, the most visible face of
Ozark
, created by Bill Dubuque and Mark Williams, brought to Netflix something that in its catalog at the time made perfect sense
: a bluish, masculine series with ambitions to be A Good Series from minute one.
Was it then?
No Is it now?
I guess, at the very least,
Ozark
is worthy now.
And
Julia Garner
comes out
, one of the most interesting actresses of today
(what you want to see and
Inventing Anna
).
Yes, as I mentioned the other day here when I talked about
It's a Sin here
, many LGBT-themed series take advantage of their theme to respond to criticism by calling them homophobic,
products like
Ozark
have blatantly used the weapon of pretending to be towering television since its first frame.
The series is good because yes, you are the one who has a problem if you don't see it that way.
It is a strategy that sometimes works, no matter how much it is made of
pieces that we recognize for miles
: a middle-aged guy tired of life, a sketchy crime, an environment between an accomplice, suspicious and antagonistic, photography turned to orange, blue or gray and, preferably, a Hollywood superstar pretending that
doing television is what he wants most in the world
(and no: what he most wants is a Marvel villain).
Before, when the number of series premieres per week (what do I say per week, per day!) Was manageable, we always used to bite into this bait.
I no longer do.
Yes,
I have started to see
Coyote
by Michael Chiklis and
Your Honor
by Bryan Cranston
, but I have gone through so many similar series.
In return, many who still believe that more intense is better
have let out magnificent fictions such as
Condor.
because they were aware of the umpteenth man who is faced with the dilemma of breaking the law and having some excitement in his life or continuing in the permanent home-work-home-work loop.
I fantasize about a reboot of the first season of
Ozark
in which the Byrde couple get loaded at the first change and
the thing centers on that Ruth Langmore played by Julia Garner who is worth the entire series.
It is that sometimes I get the feeling that if the
Loss
of David Fincher and Gillian Flynn were a pilot episode, the series that would come out of there would be
at the service of the character of Ben Affleck
.
