Spoiler alert

Near the top of each episode of Ozark, the screen fades to black.

A bright white serif capital O fades in.

Then crosshairs.

Lastly, four reductive illustrations appear.

Each one offers a clue about the plot of the current episode.

But none offer enough context to give anything away.

It's a riddle, a puzzle, a teaser.

And it makes watching the episode even more rewarding to recall each symbol as the corresponding plot points are revealed.

The drawings do the opposite of spoiling the episode: they create even more anticipation for content that is already presumably thrilling and suspenseful.

I think that's incredible.
