Billions, the labyrinthine drama about a shady hedge-fund investor and the shady district attorney on his tail, is by far and away the smartest dumb show on TV. On the one hand it’s by-the-book Prestige Television, a glossy study of self-destructive antiheroes, moral grey areas and the soul-blackening effects of power. On the other, it offers everything the golden-era box sets didn’t.
The glossiness, the over-the-top soarkin-ess of the one liners, and the gratuitous cameos make me itch!
'thoughtful trash'? Hmmm...well I guess you are at least half right.
It’s a stupid show I’ll give you that. I enjoy it though. 🤭
I really enjoy Billions even though it is poorly written. Cracking cast and lots of lovely unlikely twists and improbable turns.
'All hail Guardian, the smartest stupid publication in the world'
I watched the 1st episode of the 4th season last night, I think the show has jumped the shark..... hope I'm wrong.
I enjoyed it
