Three years after introducing audiences to its explosive premise, “Beef” is back with season 2 on Netflix, continuing its anthology format with a brand-new cast and story. Leading this season are Oscar Isaac, Carey Mulligan, Charles Melton, and Cailee Spaeny, all thrown into a ticking time bomb where emotions run seriously hot and every connection feels like it could snap at any second. Having watched all eight episodes already, I can confirm the beef is juicier than ever.
