'Ozark' descends further into darkness in grim second season

The echoes of "Breaking Bad" have grown louder in "Ozark," a Netflix series about a couple descending farther and farther down the rabbit hole into criminality, despite their futile efforts to get clean. While by no means a great show, the intense second season cements its status as an eminently binge-worthy one.

'Game Night' serves up a comedy winner

Two words, nine letters: "Game Night" is a riot -- an energetic, consistently clever comedy that playfully toys with the expectations of a savvy audience weaned on such fare. Filled with knowing pop-culture references and deriving laughs from every key character, it's the kind of smart, fast-paced entertainment that makes a pretty delicate juggling act look easy.
