It's been nearly three years since the hit series Beef made its impressive debut, capturing the Zeitgeist — and a slew of Emmy Awards — with a wild tale of road rage-induced revenge starring Steven Yuen and Ali Wong.
The anthology series is finally back with a new cast — and a new beef for the audience to sink its teeth into.
Season two moves from the streets and sprawling suburbs of LA to the rarefied air of a Californian country club in Montecito, a coastal haven popular among celebrities one hour from the city.

Beef season two review – the best show on TV becomes an unlovable White Lotus rip-off
Carey Mulligan and Oscar Isaac are a miserable couple who run a country club and get blackmailed in a rich v poor potboiler that has been done so much better before â not least in the stunning first series. What a shame
We may have to start calling it White Lotus Derangement Syndrome. This is a condition spreading through the television commissioning system since Mike White debuted his brilliant anthology series five years ago, whereby drama is produced by setting poorer Americans alongside richer Americans in a location the latter choose to come to and the former canât escape. In The White Lotus, they are the staff and guests at a variety of luxury resorts. In Sirens, the personal assistants of kabillionaires. In whatever Nicole Kidman is in they can be single mothers with children at assisted places at schools with the cashmere-clad elite, servants to expats nursing secret sadnesses in luxurious apartments, masseuses and other service providers at exclusive spa retreats, or exploited or sexually harassed nannies to people who think nothing of exploiting or harassing their nannies. In non-Kidman derivatives, the dogged blue collar viewer-avatars can also include cops, struggling novelists or academics. Unless the academic is a tenured professor, in which case the underdog becomes a sexually harassed student, who should probably unionise with the nannies.
