All good points, Bob! I think much of the issue that we're seeing with the finale of OZARK has to do with the fate of one central character in the story.

I also think that there was a different approach to how they handled the "family betrayal" aspect of the Mexican drug cartel that could have permitted the writers to alter that fate and avoid most of the backlash that we're seeing on IMDB and elsewhere.

Speaking of GOMORRAH (which I am gearing up to watch), here's an interesting article by Emma Jones from 2019 about gangster films and TV that's worth a read:
