Agreed. It's a very nuanced part he's playing. And he did it well IMO.

I think you're thinking of the wrong person. Are you thinking of Jason Sudekis? He's the KC fan.

Probably. But I could have sworn Bateman was too.

He has no emotion in his acting at all, no believable emotion anyway.

Definitely. Sudekis is terrible IMO. And yes, he's tied to KC sports.


I don't think Bateman is tied to KC at all.

I think he's good when he's playing the sarcastic dick like in Horrible Bosses and We're the Millers. But I don't think I've seen him in anything else though.

Finally started watching this. We only have a couple of episodes left.

It's good. People who say it's as good as Breaking Bad are insane. It also feels really derivative of Breaking Bad to me, as far as the anti-hero (though Walt was far more bumbling at times).

The main gripe I have with the story right now... and I know I should just be happy with willing suspension of disbelief, but domestically making heroin like that would be pretty much impossible. I get that they would probably have made it marijuana 10 years ago when marijuana was still actually considered much of an illicit drug and they didn't want to make it meth because that's overdone and would lend itself to BB comparisons even worse... but the poppy thing just isn't feasible. I actually went and researched it because it piqued my curiosity, and basically you can get a few grams of heroin from an acre of poppy plants. A single junky can shoot a few grams in a day, easily. That's why opium production pretty much only happens in countries where the government is complicit in the production. It requires entire gigantic plantations on an industrial scale to produce enough for actual profitability.

It's good - I wonder why they used Georgia to film it in vs Missouri? Seems odd - why not keep it as close to Ozarks as possible..? Too remote, maybe?

Tax incentives. Georgia is more friendly to production companies than Missouri.

is this show good and popular around the entire country, or is a thread only made on this message board because of locality

Ding ding ding. They wanted to shoot in the grand glaze arm. They went and did pre filming scouting and figured out that Missouri will not give pretty much free range for production companies to set up for no cost whatsoever. It's the same reason Walking Dead still shoots in Georgia and not Virginia/Maryland now.

Not to mention there is absolutely no reason to give tax incentives to a show that will not give the local populace a favorable image. They kinda shit on the locals with the narrative of the show. Most people who live on the Ozarks are definitely not the bumbling dumbasses they portray.They are well off retirees.

Other than that the show was fantastic. Loved it. I think it'll get better on seasons 2 & 3.

It's popular around the country. I have friends on the east coast, with no ties to anything Midwest, who really like it. Has gotten some decent national press on other message boards/forums.

Great show. It's like a baby breaking bad.. not even close to breaking bad detail but it has that looming curiosity and crazy plot twists. I think Bateman is playing your stereotypical analytical guy with little emotion almost high functioning rainman lol.

Yeah, I think so too. It is really good though. Just started it last weekend on a recommendation by someone. One more episode to go.

Then have to wait. I hate waiting. I shoulda' waited longer and binged it.

It was recommended to me by a Mid Westerner with family in Springfield MO.
