Yeah, the passage of time is pretty awkward throughout....all the back and forths to KC, Mexico, D.C...even a Chicago trip.  How quickly did Nelson catch up to Ben in Tennessee?  How long did it take to bring together The REO Speedwagon/Dentist convention?   Or the charity event?  How much time has passed since agent Miller told us she was due in 6 weeks?    A whole lot of activity in that time.

I am waiting for the Byrds to make a trip to Branson.

Anyway, I finished the season tonight. Plowed through a bunch yesterday, the rest today.  Really good stuff.  If Linney doesn't at least get an Emmy nomination this time, it's a major crime.  Bateman, Linney and Garner are all fantastic.

BTW, for those of you thinking the actor playing Navarro looks familiar (which I was), he was in the Sopranos episode The Happy Wanderer.  He was the fish guy that Chrissy was missing with (Chrissy accused him of putting his finger on the scale).

 
So far I've only had time for 2 but very impressed and should be going to sleep but queuing up ep3 now...

So good.  :thumbup:

 
Nothing phases Marty (Bateman is a great actor), no matter what crisis pops up, he just rolls with it.  The actress who plays Ruth does an incredible job, can’t imagine any other actress in that role.

Totally agree, but on a related note, I said to my wife as we were watching that if Tom Pelphrey (Ben) does not get Emmy consideration as a guest actor, it will be a travesty. He was a sensational character and played the range of emotions superbly.

 
Darlene is so crazy and manipulative.  While Helen, Marty, and Wendy fought she was pulling the strings around the lake.

 
Season 3 is 10/10.

Stunning cinematography, story-telling, and acting.  Laura Linney,  Julia Garner, and Tom Pelphrey are revelations.  To name three.

Well...that’s interesting. Quite the Full Nelson.

I agree with whomever said the Ben actor should win an Emmy. Just a superb performance.

For me, the biggest tragedy in Season 3 is the fact that I have had "It's Time For Me to Fly" in my head for 3 days. 

Damn you, Jason Bateman!

We just finished S3 last night. Fantastic, often pretty intense and absorbing. I was somewhat ambivalent about the first 2 seasons, liked the show but didn’t necessarily love it. This season was great and I was hugely disappointed when I realized we had finished it.

Thought Laura Linney and Julia Garner were fantastic, really most of the acting across the board was great IMO.

Both wife and I were repeatedly “ewwww” ing over Darlene and Wyatt 🤮

looking at his imdb and then googling, i also see that he was brought back during the final season as the job supervisor who coco beats for not kicking up.

 
Are we allowed to give spoilers here??

SPOILERS BELOW

I was ready for the brother to go, but I thought it was a great decision to not show his death on screen.  We knew what was happening; we didn't need to see it.  That whole sequence at the end of episode 9 was magnificent, and Linney hit it out of the park with her performance.

Once they said they were all going to Mexico in episode 10, I figured Helen was a goner, but talk about not wasting any time! :lol:

I hope we don't have to wait 2 years for Season 4.  My favorite series on Netflix right now.  S3 was superb.  :clap:

From what I've read, they haven't even started filming Season 4 yet and with the current environment, it may be awhile until it comes back. :(

Looks like that isn't unusual though. Apparently Netflix usually announces a new season for Ozark about a month after the current season airs.

Was searching for the same thing over the weekend when we finished the season. Came across an article that quoted the showrunners a year ago as saying they envision 5 seasons most likely but could potentially go 4 or 6 depending on how things go reception-wise and how they write out the story.

"Reception-wise" worries me, as I would hate to see them stretch it out and make it too long just because a lot of people are watching.  Let the story resolve itself naturally and end it there.  Two more seasons sounds about right.

Yeah, hard to say exactly what they meant. In this case, I think they were more just being cautious as Netflix has no problem cancelling things so he didn't want to definitively say 5 seasons and they only are given 4.

 
i hate wendy with the hate of a thousand hate suns burning full of anger and hatred and basically i try to find the good in everyone but man i do not like her thats all i have to say about that take that to the bank bromigos

I hate Wendy's brother.  He is annoying as hell but a good actor.

 
I honestly wasn’t a huge fan of some of these plot points this season.  Seemed to be more of a distraction.  I still liked the season for the acting and tone and whatnot, Just didn’t find a lot of the storytelling that compelling

 
So, how does this end?  Do Marty and Wendy stay together?  Do they both live?  Prison or do they get away with it all?  A ton of possibilities. 

 
Very good season

Ben portrayed his condition very good

I found myself especially early on getting annoyed at Ruth's constant over the top mouth

Darlene....GILF! :shudder: I hope Wyatt got hazard pay

Agree didnt need to see Ben got got

Wendy did a great job on dealing with her brother's loss/murder

Marty is a rock. Well done and well played

Is the daughter 18 yet? Asking for a friend.

Not all 3 were returning from Mexico. Assuming it was helen but yea...why waste time?

KC does seem around the corner 

S4

Son starts to question mom....everything?

FBI flipping storyline 

Darlene/Ruth vs Byrds war

Police on Darlene side?

KC mob on Darlene side?

Byrds have Navaro + assume new character. 

What happens to Neslon? Dead? Works for Byrds?

Seeing them get away with it all would be too unrealistic; I hope they don't go that route.  As smart and crafty as Wendy and Marty both are, they are both in a little over their heads in the sense that neither is as evil and diabolical as Navarro or Darlene or Frank, and there will be too many forces working against them for them to get away with it all, IMO.

Marty ####ed up not finding a way to back up Ruth's "untouchable" status. It didn't fully manifest until later but that's the very moment they lost her loyalty.
