“Ozark” has always been a show about a family trying to stick together under the most extreme circumstances. But for the Netflix series’ final episodes, showrunner Chris Mundy wanted to make the series become even more about family.The fourth and final season of the show is being split into two halves of seven episodes each, and the first batch – dubbed “Ozark” Season 4 – Part 1 – debut on Netflix Friday, Jan.
21. Speaking with TheWrap recently, Mundy revealed that as he and the writers began plotting out the show’s endgame, they wanted to focus in on the Byrde family. “We really wanted to circle back in on ourselves and have it become more intensely about the family as we go forward,” Mundy said. “I mean, to me the show – for all the crazy situations and death – is most itself when we’re at the Byrdes’ dinner table and they’re having what would be mundane family conversations, yet they’re so crazy because it’s this extreme situation.
