Beef

A masterpiece in weaving delicate narratives into something truly compelling. The absurdist elements perfectly complement the emotionally raw portraits of both protagonists, and the final episodes ties all these elements together philosophically in a neat bow: referencing Catch 22, and in doing so, alludes to a similar absurdist philosophy which Heller presented in his works. Our modern society has become a battlefied. And just like Heller's masterpiece, Beef is also throroughly dripping in irony, in every line of dialogue, it permeates everything the show is about. In Danny and Paul's relationship, this show breathes new life into an archetype of story evocative of 'Of mice and men', flipping the George and Lennie allegory on its head to phenomenal effect. A modern masterpiece of television.

Mildly entertaining. Had its moments, but wasn’t must watch TV. It’ll keep you entertained if you’re looking for a show. I liked that the episodes were around 30 minutes. The finale was horrible. I was bored by the last episode and kept checking how much time was left.

Watched 3 episodes. Interesting plot, but did not find it very engaging.

Yeun's acting is decent and it's literally the only thing that saves it from getting a 1. Everything else is *HORRIBLE*, especially the further you get into the season, with one of the worst endings to any season I've ever seen. Thoroughly unenjoyable. Oh and the lack of diversity is nauseating, too.

One of the most overrated pieces of trash. It was alright at first and then halway through it just felt like the writers threw everything out the window and said, "LET'S MAKE THIS RANDOM AND EDGY!" just as a pathetic means to push people's dopamine buttons while disregarding any story/character development that was made. Not to mention, the soundtrack is god awful nu-metal / early 00 trash I listened to as an angsty adolescent, that no adult should be unironically listening to or appreciating. This show is just straight up shallow in depth and insanely overrated junk food
