Netflix has been credited for producing some of the greatest TV series over the years. Many of them are great for a binge-watch just to take your mind off after a long day, while others are influential pieces of work that stay with you for many years. And if there is any show that has been most influential not only to other Netflix Originals but to the craft of making TV shows, it has to be Ozark.

The Emmy Award-winning series that concluded this year will surely go down in history as one of the most well-written and executed projects by Netflix. And it has already started to influence other projects of the streaming service. Kaos is a new project by Netflix that cannot be far away from Ozark on paper. However, it still has a huge connection to the crime drama show.

Since her departure from the show after the third season, she made appearances in several other series, such as Sorry for Your Loss, among many others.
