1"The Birds Don't Sing, They Screech in Pain"HikariLee Sung JinApril 6, 2023 (2023-04-06)
Danny Cho, a contractor struggling to maintain clients, nearly drives his truck into Amy Lau's SUV in the parking lot of home improvement store Forsters, where Amy is organizing the sale of her business to the chain's owner, Jordan. The incident between Amy and Danny escalates to road rage and a destructive car chase. Amy drives away, and Danny notes her license plate number. Both are struggling with tensions in their personal and professional lives. Danny believes his brother Paul is irresponsible, and feels burdened to help his elderly parents, who moved back to Korea after being forced to sell their motel business. Amy, the breadwinner, is stressed by trying to close the sale and struggles to convey its importance to her well-intentioned stay-at-home husband, George. Later Danny borrows money from his recently paroled cousin Isaac, whose illicit activities resulted in the loss of the Chos' motel business. Danny tracks Amy down via her license plate number and uses his role as a contractor to enter her Calabasas home and take revenge by urinating all over her bathroom. Furious, Amy chases him and notes his license plate number as he drives away laughing.

Paul suggests they try to acquire new clients in Orange County and proposes they approach Danny's ex-girlfriend, Veronica, and her husband Edwin. The couple invites the Cho brothers to their church, Living Glory. Amy catfishes Paul on Instagram, impersonating her assistant Mia (who's having an affair with George), under another name, and has an argument with George at a gallery opening because she feels unsupported when he refuses to sell a beloved art piece made by his deceased father, a famous sculptor, to Jordan. Upset that the deal might be jeopardized, Amy funnels her anger towards vandalizing Danny's truck. Danny, after seeing the truck, proceeds to argue with Paul, which results in the both of them cancelling their planned joint business venture. Amy agrees to couples therapy with George.

Hoping to secure a loan to buy a piece of property for his parents, Danny is rejected by every bank because he lacks a substantial down payment. He and Isaac approach Living Glory Church to secure money for the down payment, and offers their contracting services free of charge for renovations. With their plan set in motion, the cousins steal materials for the renovations at another construction site. Jordan brings Amy the term sheet for their deal, which involves Amy staying on for five more years, to Amy's dismay.

Production

[edit]
Promotional poster incorporating the two notable characters from the series.

The project, created by Korean-American director Lee Sung Jin and set to star Steven Yeun and Ali Wong was first announced in March 2021, with a bidding war happening over the series rights.[10] Netflix would eventually win the rights.[11] In December, Lee Isaac Chung was reported to be directing the pilot episode.[12] In March 2022, additional castings were announced, including David Choe and Patti Yasutake,[13] and the pilot episode would instead be directed by Japanese director Hikari. She was also confirmed to direct several additional episodes.[14]

Filming had begun by April 2022.[15]

Lee Sung Jin has planned the show to last three seasons: "There are a lot of ideas on my end to keep this story going. I think should we be blessed with a Season Two, there's a lot of ways for Danny and Amy to continue. I have one really big general idea that I can't really say yet, but I have three seasons mapped out in my head currently."[16]

In February 2024, it was announced that a second season was being actively explored, with Charles Melton, Cailee Spaeny, Jake Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway.[17] In June 2024, it was reported that Oscar Isaac and Carey Mulligan are in negotiations to star in the second season.[18] In August 2024, Melton and Spaeny confirmed they were also in negotiations to star in the second season.[19][20] In October 2024, it was confirmed that Isaac, Mulligan, Melton, and Spaeny were cast as the leads in the new season, with the story centering around "a young couple witnessing an alarming fight between their boss and his wife, triggering chess moves of favors and coercion in the elitist world of a country club and its Korean billionaire owner."[21]

Critical response

[edit]

On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 98% of 118 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 8.4/10. The website's consensus reads: "Ali Wong and Steven Yeun are a diabolically watchable pair of adversaries in Beef, a prime cut comedy that finds the pathos in pettiness."[24] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned a score of 86 out of 100 based on 34 critics, indicating "universal acclaim".[25] Brian Tallerico of RogerEbert.com gave Beef 3.5 out of 4 stars. In his review of the show, he noted that the general mood of the country, which is characterized by anxiety, frustration, and anger, was effectively used to create a "tonally daring" show that vacillates between comedy, drama, and thriller. Tallerico praised the show for its well-structured plotting and lauded the performances of Steven Yeun and Ali Wong, calling them the best he has seen that year, and applauds their ability to make their characters relatable and grounded. However, Tallerico also noted that the show's penultimate episode became "a little hard-to-swallow" and took away some significant decisions from the characters, which detracted from the thematically rich narrative.[26]

In her review for Variety, Alison Herman praised Beef for the excellent chemistry between Ali Wong and Steven Yeun, as well as for their performances. She noted that the show starts grounded in emotional concerns but spirals ever further out into surrealism and caricatures, sometimes distracting from the show's "core insights".[27] In a review for NPR, Linda Holmes explained that the show is interested in big questions about meaning and purpose in life and "tackles them with inventiveness and deep empathy". She praised the show's stunning, surprising, and empathetic portrayal of the muddled humanity of its very messy characters and its ability to blend humor with deep existential questions. Herman also praised the performances, especially Steven Yeun's, and the show's production design.[28]

Ben Travers of IndieWire gave the series a grade of B and stated that it does a fine job balancing the protagonists' practical intelligence and impractical passions. He added that the series is designed to evoke empathy for each combatant while exploring their shared humanity and collective hardships, and it delves into their demons while drawing parallels between the two leads. He noted that despite some of the plot twists feeling forced, Wong and Yeun "shine throughout".[29] Ellen E. Jones of The Guardian gave the show 4 out of 5 stars and described it as a "dark, existential thriller" and a "delicacy worth savouring". She noted that the show's "extremely funny" dialogue and chaos highlighted the quality of its leads.[30]

In his review for The New York Times, television critic James Poniewozik described Beef as a "thrilling dark comedy" that "delves into the intricacies of anger via a road-rage feud between two drivers who share more in common than meets the eye". He praised the show's attention to the motivations that led to the conflict and the personal and cultural specificity of its study of anger. Poniewozik also noted that the show's Asian cast was both a casual fact of the setting and integral to its themes.[31] In a review for the Chicago Sun-Times, Richard Roeper described Beef as "bold, darkly funny, emotionally bruising, provocative and wicked-smart social satire". He commended the ensemble cast for their exceptional performances, particularly Ali Wong and Steven Yeun. Comparing the show to "Falling Down and Changing Lanes with a touch of The White Lotus", Roeper claimed that it was the best series he had seen all year.[32]
