The  Crime Drama TV series was first aired on  July 21, 2017, with ten episodes and the series ended with season four which consists of 14 episodes divided into two parts. The first part was released on January 21, 2022, and the second part was released on  December 6, 2022.

What is the series about? 

The series is about a money laundering scheme for a Mexican drug cartel, which goes wrong and now Marty has to fix it, but everything is not what it seems in the lake of the Ozarks area. Ozark is the name of the town in which Marty Byrde works as a financial adviser. He is engaged in laundering money for his Mexican boss. His family has been involved with the drug cartel business and nothing bad happens to them. The problem starts when he has to launder 100 million dollars just in one night. It is a huge amount of money and also he has to do it alone so that nobody can find out about it. The only person who knows about this is his wife Wendy Byrde because she used to be an officer of the cartel and knows absolutely everything about it. It would have been good if they were able to keep the same audience as in previous seasons instead of losing half of their viewers.

Will there be a fifth season? 

If there will be the fifth season it will be interesting to see if the network wants to continue the show. But If Amazon wants to continue with the show then it can. It could be an interesting show for them as well. But we already know that Netflix is not planning to renew the series for next season. It was because of the low number of viewers from season 4. Which was less than half its audience from the previous season 3. And the average of season 4 was 2.3 million viewers, which makes it a very small audience in comparison to other shows. And not to mention that Netflix is not planning to renew any series that was low rated so they do not want to renew Ozark season 5 because of the same reason.

What makes this series exciting?

It is an interesting crime series to watch. The things that happen in the show are not plausible, but it is fun to watch and it can become addictive as well. It has a bit of everything and also it has something weird about it. The story is intriguing and you just do not have to watch one episode because you can easily get hooked on this series and want to keep watching more and more. Once you start watching it, there is no going back at least while you can keep yourself from being addicted. It has the action, drama, and thriller all mixed into one making it one good series for Netflix viewers.
