After Everything Everywhere All At Once, A24 has outdone itself again with new Netflix drama Beef, starring Ali Wong and Steven Yeun.

If you're looking for a series that will surprise you, engage you, make you laugh, make you cry, and will keep you on the edge of your seat, then Beef is the show for you.

From start to finish, this show is an absolute joyride that will make you want to drop everything and binge-watch all 10 episodes in one sitting.

The show follows the story of Danny Cho (played by Steven Yeun), a contractor desperate to find work, and Amy Lau (played by Ali Wong), a successful businesswoman.

What starts off as a simple parking lot dispute between the two quickly turns into an all-out war that spans across the city of Los Angeles.

The genius of Beef lies not only in its clever writing and hilarious comedy, but also in its ability to tackle universal themes such as guilt, unhappiness, and social class differences.

The series manages to showcase the Asian-American experience with both nuance and complexity, which honestly is a refreshing change from the usual stereotypes we see on TV.

As Reddit indicates, fans are absolutely won over by the series, saying that it "made [them] feel something and that's just amazing."

Viewers watched the show "in one sitting," all 10 episodes in a row. Moreover, as some fans share they "just want to watch it again."

With Yeun and Wong in the lead roles, the show is a guaranteed hit. Both actors are at the peak of their talents and bring a depth to their characters that is rarely seen on TV.

The supporting cast is also full of great talent from A24, which has become known for producing some of the best films and TV series of recent years.

With this season of Beef being a contained story, there are theories of how it might get continued, as fans definitely want more of it. As some suggest, they can see it as an anthology, "being the White Lotus of Netflix. "

While we wait for any official word from Netflix about Beef's renewal, we have only one question for you if you haven't yet seen it: what are you waiting for?
