[This story contains spoilers through the ninth and tenth episodes of Beef season one, “The Great Fabricator” and “Figures of Light.”]
In retrospect, it was perhaps only a matter of time that Danny (Steven Yeun) and Amy (Ali Wong)’s escalating feud would lead to life-and-death stakes. The final two episodes of Netflix’s Beef open with Isaac (David Choe) freshly sprung from prison — thanks to a tip from Amy that Danny was actually the one involved in the road-rage incident — and pissed. He makes a beeline for Danny’s place, accompanied by henchmen Michael (Andrew Santino) and Bobby (Rekstizzy), looking for both money and revenge. What he finds is an opportunity: Danny has accidentally kidnapped Amy’s cheerfully curious daughter, June (Remy Holt), so Isaac decides to call Amy in exchange for a $500,000 ransom. Unable to come up with that much cash by Isaac’s deadline, Amy offers a counter-proposal: She’s at Jordan (Maria Bello)’s estate, full of...

Plot: Follows the aftermath of a road rage incident between two strangers. Danny Cho, a failing contractor with a chip on his shoulder, goes head-to-head with Amy Lau, a self-made entrepreneur with a picturesque life. The increasing stakes of their feud unravel their lives and relationships in this darkly comedic and deeply moving series.
Review: Beef is a series that seemed to come out of nowhere. The trailer, which debuted just a few weeks before this week’s series premiere, instantly buzzed around the internet. With a darkly comic sensibility, Beef appeared to be a hilariously twisted dive into the minds of two people who were contending with trauma, stress, and anxiety precipitated by a road rage incident.

Inspired by a real-life conflict experienced by creator Lee Sung Jin, “Beef” follows the escalation of a road rage incident between wealthy entrepreneur Amy (Ali Wong) and failing contractor Danny (Steven Yeun), as the pair sets their minds on tearing each other’s lives apart.
Despite the far-fetched amplification of their feud, which begins to implicate Amy and Danny’s families in their subsequent revenge plots, the Netflix comedy series touches on a deeply human sentiment: Amy and Danny are done hiding their true feelings.
“They’re both just really fed up — they’re really fed up and overwhelmed,” Wong told TheWrap, adding that their characters share repressed shame and anger. “It’s just at their threshold point … Sometimes when you see people … they’ve come down from being overwhelmed, but they’re just both like right here, it’s like ripe.”

A cynic might argue that there's an all-too-recognizable formula for popular television shows these days. Spicy premises starring damaged characters with very few likable traits, copious amounts of sex and cheating and violence, and F-bombs galore all feel like time-honored shock tactics to coax jaded, spectacle-starved audiences into uniting around a particular water-cooler show. For every "Succession" or "Yellowjackets," it always seems as if immensely popular shows like "Euphoria" remind us that edginess sells above all else.
"Beef," the latest television project from A24 and Netflix (two studios that certainly know their way around sensationalist productions), won't immediately dispel those surface-level criticisms. The inciting action unfolds after the pettiest of road rage incidents. Co-leads Steven Yeun and Ali Wong curse up a storm in clip-ready segments that seem destined to go viral on social media. The more one watches these characters go about their daily lives, the less there are to root for.

For a while, all we really knew about the plot of Netflix’s dark comedy series “Beef” was that it followed two strangers who could not let a road rage incident go. Now the trailer is out, and it turns out that that simple plot description pretty much sums it up.
In the trailer, we see the incident – struggling contractor Danny Cho (Steven Yeun) almost backs into wealthy entrepreneur Amy Lau (Ali Wong) in a parking lot, and Amy overreacts – and then the escalation. It starts with a car chase. Then it turns into finding out who each other is. Then it turns into psychological warfare involving Danny peeing on a rug in Amy’s bathroom and Amy threatening him on social media by pointing a handgun at her phone. Their feud takes over their lives, and there will be consequences for them and their families.

"I have a very full life that I'd love to get back to... I'm gonna find you and take what little you have." Netflix has revealed an official trailer for a dark comedy revenge series titled Beef, created by TV producer / writer Lee Sung Jin. This looks like amusing, dark, twisted madness! I'm so in. Two people who let a road rage incident burrow into their minds and slowly consume their every thought and action. Hence the title about the "beef" between them.

Ali Wong and Steven Yeun are not taking the high road in the new Netflix series “Beef,” as evidenced by the comedy series’ first trailer.
After an incident of road rage between failing contractor Danny (Yeun) and self-made entrepreneur Amy (Ali Wong) intensifies their already gut-wrenching anxiety and frustration with the world, the pair become laser-focused on getting revenge on one another as their feud begins to unravel their lives.
“I’ve been hustling my whole life and look where it’s gotten me,” Danny says with disappointment as he checks the stock market while Amy pleads separately, “just make it stop.”
Instead of stopping, however, life throws yet another wrench into Danny and Amy’s lives through a tense encounter on the road that could have easily ended in a colossal crash. Though Amy speeds away and avoids an initial fender bender, she tests fate when she throws Danny...
