I'm late to the party, but finished Narcos Mexico. Very good series, was hooked from the first episode. Very sobering to realize that today's extreme violence in Mexico has had a long and sordid history there from all the drugs. Diego Luna was great, but I didn't really like Michael Pena as Kiki.
Now I am into season 2 of Narcos and in some ways I think it's better than Narcos Mexico. I was annoyed that some of the major characters in this series were actually fictional, but it really did a great job of recreating history from those days. One thing I thought interesting was that the guy that played Pablo, Wagner Moura, had to learn Spanish for the role. On some YouTube comments, I've read that his accent was bad. Since I don't speak Spanish, I couldn't tell anyhow so not a distraction for me.
Late too! I watched Narcos Mexico first. I started Narcos this weekend. I have to agree that Narcos is better but I'm only on Season 1. I'm enjoying it so far.

I'm midway through season 2 and season 1 was definitely better (though it's still good).
There were some scenes that I thought were a bit over the top and obviously given the Hollywood treatment.
I think the reason why I like Narcos compared to Narcos Mexico so far, is because I like the characters in Narcos better. They are more compelling and in some ways more likable.
I liked Ozark. It was good but not a two-season wait good. I quit tracking it's release date. I can't imagine why it has taken so long. It doesn't strike me as a particularly difficult or expensive show to film. For the most part, the same applies to Narcos.
I love to binge watch so I'll hold off on watching until most of the episodes are released. I have plenty to occupy my time until then.
