Ozark
Ozark premiered on Netflix in July 2017, created by Bill Dubuque and Mark Williams, starring Jason Bateman as a financial planner who relocates his family to Missouri's Lake of the Ozarks after a money-laundering scheme for a Mexican drug cartel goes wrong, forcing him into an escalating cycle of criminal entanglement. Bateman, previously known primarily for comedic roles, also directed numerous episodes across the series' four-season run, and his performance alongside Laura Linney as his increasingly ruthless wife drew significant critical acclaim and multiple Emmy nominations and wins across the show's run. The series became one of Netflix's most consistently high-performing original dramas by internal viewership metrics, and its Ozarks lake-region setting, though largely filmed in Georgia, helped drive a genuine tourism interest in the actual Lake of the Ozarks region in Missouri following the show's popularity. Ozark's combination of Jason Bateman's genre-shifting lead performance and directing work and its sustained multi-season viewership success has made it one of Netflix's most critically and commercially significant original crime dramas.
VS
The Crown
The Crown premiered on Netflix in November 2016, created by Peter Morgan, and it dramatized the reign of Queen Elizabeth II across six seasons, employing a genuinely unusual production strategy of recasting its entire principal cast every two seasons to age the characters across multiple decades of British royal history. The series became one of Netflix's most expensive productions, with reported per-season budgets reaching well over $100 million at points, reflecting its lavish production design, location shooting, and costuming built to authentically recreate multiple distinct eras of 20th-century British royal life. The show drew both critical acclaim, including multiple Emmy and Golden Globe wins across its cast changes, and periodic public controversy over its blending of historical fact with dramatized speculation about the royal family's private lives, prompting Netflix to add an on-screen disclaimer describing the series as "inspired by" rather than strictly factual. The Crown's combination of its unusual recasting structure, its position as one of the most expensive scripted series ever produced, and its ongoing public debate over historical accuracy has made it one of the most significant and closely watched prestige dramas in Netflix's original programming history.
