Bold and provocative, Beef has been labelled one of the best series of the year for good reason. Headlined by the excellent chemistry and performances of its two leads, Beef effectively taps into the anxiety, frustration, and anger that personifies the current American psyche, and does so without losing empathy for the series’ flawed yet relatable characters. Steven Yeung and Ali Wong star in this black comedy series that revolves around a road rage incident that develops into a series of tit-for-tat acts of revenge between two strangers turned adversaries who are consumed with destroying one another. Starring: Steven Yeun, Ali Wong, Joseph Lee
