The Official "Billions" Season 1 Thread

[steadyrighteous]

I won't front the dialogue is clunky

...writers are juxtaposing inside trading stock talk with perversion FUKKERY

But, this hedge fund-fukk U Money-aristocratic-underbelly lifestyle's fascinating to me

This is the only statement that bothers me though, because so far they've showed me nothing I couldn't have guessed or assumed myself.

Nothing they've done on that level is above what I already imagined, so they haven't even given me (us) a peek into the life.

Powerful dudes like to be dommed and have outta the ordinary sexual proclivities and predilections.

Rich people buy $80 million dollar houses and fly outta town for 1 night only concerts.

I stick by my previous assertion about this show; this is like Entourage written by people who think they're smarter than they really are, and if you've ever heard Brian Koppleman's podcast you'd get that too.

This show for some reason I can't explain reminds me of "Ballers". It's probably no worse than Ballers, but I had a more positive opinion of Ballers because it exceeded expectations and this show doesn't quite live up to my expectations.

I didn't really understand everything that happened, but I think this was the best episode yet. Maybe I'm just used to the show's faults by now.

They're all of the same ilk.

It's called "lifestyle porn".

They come from the adolescent turned adult minds of a certain type of (usually) guys. The jokes are sophomoric, the women are topless and the yachts and private jets are in abundance.

Bobby Axe is too careful and has the right people on his team... which makes me wonder what plot powers Paul Giamatti and his crew gonna use to "catch" Axe?

 

[Atlrocafella]

another great episode. Season 1 is turning out to be very promising.

I wanna hit that black chick too.
