We are finally stepping outside of our usual HBO bubble at The Rolling Remote because today we’re heading to Netflix to talk about Beef Season 2. If you’re not familiar with Beef, it’s a Netflix anthology series created by Lee Sung Jin. At its core, it’s about conflict, something usually small, impulsive, almost meaningless, that spirals into something way bigger than it should. It’s super messy, uncomfortable, funny, and usually ends up revealing a lot about the people who are involved.
Season 1 starred Steven Yeun and Ali Wong as Danny Cho and Amy Lau, two strangers involved in a road rage incident. The anthology series went on to an awards run at the Emmys where it won in all three of its nominated categories, including Best Limited or Anthology Series or Television Film.
We discuss Season 2 which stars Oscar Isaac and Carey Mulligan as Joshua Martin and Lindsay Crane-Martin and Cailee Spaeny and Charles Melton as Ashley and Austin, two couples, with the poor latter two blackmailing the rich former two into not releasing footage of a heated argument the two had, which similarly escalates into a prolonged feud.
