Many fans are already impatient for another season. While the show may have seemed like a self-contained story, there are reportedly plans in place for a follow-up if Netflix gives it the green light.

#BEEFNetflix is a masterwork of pettiness and jaw-dropping escalation, riotously funny and genuinely profound, digging into how "hurt people" hurt people. Steven Yuen and Ali Wong give world-class performances. 2023's best TV series so far. pic.twitter.com/z2paaETgpT

This show revived a meme from the release of Halloween Kills compiling all the clips where Jamie Lee Curtis said the word "trauma." It was surprisingly applicable here as well.
prevnextRecommendation
I watched Beef on a whim and Good Lord that show is an achievement. Pitch-black comedy blended with searing drama and an intense examination of how and why people are "broken". One of the most unique shows I've seen in a while. And Steven Yeun and Ali Wong? SUPERB.#BeefNetflix pic.twitter.com/bRgvxNFVBG

Finally, many fans felt they had to recommend Beef in the strongest possible terms knowing that some viewers are skeptical of Netflix these days. They assured their followers that this one is worth the watch.
