Netflix, 3:00 a.m. ET

 

SEASON PREMIERE: This Netflix series, starring Jason Bateman, is back for Season 2. I liked Bateman’s performance last season, and the show’s setting, but not its plotting. It seems like Bateman’s character was envisioned as a Saul Goodman-type “talk his way out of anything” guy – but in too many situations, the only way for him to end the scene credibly was as a corpse. Maybe this Season 2 run will correct that problem, but maybe not.

I had the exact same problem with this series. I wanted to like it because I loved the setting and the acting was great. But the storyline didn't seem plausible to me.
