No I'm dead serious. Why watch if you despise the characters to the point where you want something to cause it all to instantly end? Lol I must be misinterpreting what you mean because it seems crazy to me to keep watching something you feel that strongly against. The equivalent of the gas leak causing the massive explosion and making it all stop and go away is you changing the channel.
Lol help me understand? Are there certain characters you want to see in this explosion? If so, then saying "they all" threw me off. Are you saying seeing their demise would be the payoff you are hoping for that would make it worth continuing to watch?
I agree with you. And I'm still watching it. I am an idiot, I understand. Marty is the only remotely likeable character to me which is why I said what I said.
I've been told by people whose opinion I respect that it's a really good show I just have trouble liking any of these characters.
And the gas leak scenario would be much more satisfying for me than the channel change.
If you are going to go that route you better at least be compelling though. And that's where a lot of these lose me. Walter White wasn't a hero but he was damn sure compelling.

That's the show I keep comparing Ozark to in my mind. And I agree 100%. I like Marty Byrde and find him mildly interesting, but Walter White kept Breaking Bad together in a much bigger way.
