I stopped after episode 3, is it worth investing the time again? I feel like it's going back to an ex who shows signs of change for a few days then you catch them with the pizza delivery guy while setting your house on fire.
Ruth is also great especially in the last episode. I finished it a few weeks ago and am ready for more
Yeah, she's really come into her own.
I was trying to spread it out and not binge, but I caved last night and watched the last three episodes.

Yes and no. Yes it became miles more entertaining through adding a cool new bad guy and bringing back 6 (!) characters from the other series. But there is something totally bizarre and hollow when the best thing your show has is to show less of your main characters and plot. The filmmakers must have been cringing making it knowing that. But yeah it was worth a watch.

Are you a big SW fan? Watch it. It's less of a train wreck than the first few eps and has like 9 things a SW geek would love.

Agree with all this.
We watched the last 2 episodes in a row. That was an insane ending the acting is so good all around.
Too bad it’s ending after the next group of episodes but at least they can somehow wrap it all up for us.
I know you all like Julia as Ruth Langmore in Ozark.
She actually does other stuff!

Between the two different accents I'm curious what she sounds like in real life.I know you all like Julia as Ruth Langmore in Ozark.

Incredibly profound yet fantastically flawed
I just finished watching the first season, and I completely agree. It's totally unbelievable, but in a good way - kind of like the old 80's action movie type stuff where the hero commits the kind of crimes that would get him a needle in the arm, but it's okay because he's the "good guy". I think the parts of the series I laughed at the most were the scenes where Reacher kills someone after getting into a brutal fight with them. He walks away bleeding, which means there'd be forensic evidence just everywhere you look at the crime scene - like after he kills the one guy who cut him with the knife, he just leaves the knife with his own blood on it at the scene and walks away with the guy conspicuously out in the open in broad daylight - if he did that, wouldn't they have probably linked him to the 9 or 10 other murders he committed while leaving tons of forensic evidence behind? And then there's the fact that he gets hit in the head with metal objects like tire irons or lead pipes several times and doesn't appear to be even lightly concussed. Everything about this show is completely ludicrous. I loved it.
BTW, on the subject of ridiculous TV, there is some channel on FIOS that shows a bunch of old cop shows from the 80's. I don't know which channel it is, but every now and then I'll come across it and whatever is on I'll just sit and watch. I've almost had a stroke laughing at some of these shows numerous times. A while back, there was an old episode of TJ Hooker on where William Shatner is chasing a criminal and yells, "Freeze!" but then instantly shoots the guy in the back twice. He was an unarmed man running away. I think he wanted to question the guy about something - he wasn't even there to arrest him. But by running, the guy was justifiably gunned down in the mind of TJ Hooker and his department. If you go by TV, every member of every police department in the 1980's was a hyper-violent sociopath.

Finished Ozark glad it's still fresh
I didn't see anyone else mention it but Vigil is really fucking good.
For those into light hearted shows "all creatures great and small", idk why but I really like it.
Only think I'm watching week to week is attack on titan but I am suspect if anyone here is into anime.
I love inside job, I think they ran out of jokes after the first episode but my standards for entertainment are rather low.

She's great in both roles.
Unfortunately "Inventing Anna" would have been better as a 3 or 4 part series. 9 episodes is waaaay too long.
I felt this was too, definitely can condense to 6 episodes. Like we get it, you did what you did….

We've watched 2 seasons of Servant on AppleTV+. Let me just quote Ruth Langmore from Ozark, "What the actual F***?!"
Multiple short episodes per season, that leave you perplexed as heck when each one ends.
