i had no idea whatsoever about this series, didn’t recognize the actors, didn’t like the name of the series, yet it kept being shown to me in my suggested “watch next” lists and sometimes they get it right. this is a fabulous series, it’s all about being human in so many ways i can’t begin to explain it. it’s centered around an asian american cast and there are a few things i suspect i didn’t get but generally you can be any walk of life and totally appreciate this drama. i loved it and have recommended it to several friends if they haven’t watched it yet. very real life dialogue, some quirky “nothing but everyday life” moments, the actors are great. i can’t recommend this more. know ahead of time there is some sarcasm which i know some people don’t appreciate, but it works well. watch this now. drama. it’s not a comedy!!! lighthearted drama though and great messages in this flick.paudieconnolly

kicking off quickly, the smallest of interactions. escalates into a full-scale beef very well paced. first episode makes you wonder will they be able to keep it up for the series. the beef is cooked perfectly lots of twists and turns. netflix often have these filler episodes just to make 10. this doesn’t feel like it has any filler with the new angle each episode and a cliff hanger making it tough to not binge watch the next one. this is a strong offering from netflix with steven yeun from the walking dead and a lady, i formally known as a comedian ali wong proving to be quite the actress with a strong supporting cast one of the best things i’ve seen on netflix for awhile.dsohn7

on the surface, the premise of beef can happen to anyone, of any background, but to center the story around asian americans was the right move. we are born into a life of impossibly high standards and the immense pressure to uphold an image of success, to pay off our immigrant parents’ sacrifices, to have our sht together.
but as human beings, the pressure comes with the most stubborn pride, and the shame of our shortcomings metastasizes into rage. this show may not be every asian american’s experience but this exploration feels authentic, uncomfortably honest, and revolutionary.
even those rice cookers were such a funny and jarring clash of asian and american culture. this series is comedic but it gets dark and these characters are messssssy. episode 9 had my jaw on the floor.
ali wong was perfect for the role. steven yeun’s danny is completely different from his role as the father in minari, yet the suffocating pressure stems from the same place and it bridges the generational gap.nevergivea10

this was a really good series. i sat down to watch one episode and i wound up on my butt for 5 hours until it was over. i think i would describe it as a dark comedy. i don’t like anything but i liked this one. although almost the entire cast is asian, there is no casting of non-asians as bad. (i wrongfully assumed this was the direction this series would take.).
now here’s the part that scares me: as netflix does, when they get a popular series they come back with a season 2, 3, 4, and maybe 5. don’t do it!! there’s very few places for a second season to go. if you do you’re going to destroy the series.chewywater-707-400701

first season is great. somehow the two main characters are likable, but full of a rage that can only be resolved with violent revenge; two characters who have the spirit of warriors ready to fight to the death, but somehow trying to exist in a polite society. many of us out here can identify.
second season i’m not liking as much because i just don’t care about the characters. i find their bickering tiring and the scheming isn’t interesting if i don’t like the characters. it feels more like white lotus than the original first season of beef.
