Pokor never disappoints, so there are plenty of exciting situations. Although it all seems too starched and "serial", it's still quite fun, as long as you don't take it too seriously.

The intrigues and schemes against AG and the new characters of a masculine woman and a psychologist are controversial to say the least, and spice up a somewhat monotonous office battle full of intrigue and subplots.

A bit of John Wick, a bit of The Raid, and an awfully ordinary plot. It’s still good stuff, though. Hemsworth handles the action decently and isn't afraid of the more daring stunts, which is commendable. Extraction does wink at Evans from behind the scenes, but it can be considered another in a long line of flashy action flicks. Especially the car chase scene in one take, or running around a house – these are first class stunts. I was tempted to believe that it was an unrecognizably made-up Rose Byrne in a cool Indian look, but it wasn't.

The second season starts in quite the opposite direction of the first. That is, the antagonist of the main character (Rhoades) gets much more space than his stockbroker friend, and the situation around him doesn't turn out well at all.

Perfect focus and demystification of good and evil. An exceptionally accurate recreation and dissection of the American political-legal-judicial apparatus, the philosophy and pseudo-mission of these institutions, and the nastiness and sassiness with which they go after the scalps of people who have often done nothing more than be successful, because if it's not about money on their part, it's about influence and power at the very least. On the other hand, a fascinating cross-section of stockbrokers and primarily a detailed portrait of a billionaire and all that goes with it. That is, his thoughts, problems, lapses and the fact that every billionaire didn't just "make" money, but had to do something dirty, or at least on the edge, one or more times. A blurring of the difference between these two worlds in a perfect psychological and emotional war – that's what at least the first season of Billions offers. The only weakness I perceive is that there are so many names and the plot moves forward so fast that the viewer tends to get lost in it, especially in the beginning. But the main characters are perfect, the creators took their time and care with them. Hands down, a first class series.

The twelfth episode is the best. Thrilling manoeuvres of all the main characters, tense pace and no chance of victory, although one of the characters is a bit closer to it than the others. But that will very likely change in the coming episodes, of course. The figurative iconic finale automatically goes to the second season.

The best episode so far. It uses psychological minutiae to dissect and map the mind and thought processes of a billionaire entrepreneur who, by necessity, has to do most things differently than others to get where he is. The writers have created a very interesting character in Axe.

An excellent episode that stands out thanks to the precise work with time zones and excellently edited flashbacks.

Much more interesting than the spiritual digression of one of the protagonists, which looks like a rusty nail in a realistic procedural drama about killer brokers, is the excellent work with media influences and the crowd psychosis that starts the moment the unfair information about Axe surfaces.

An episode that shows loud and clear that the US General Attorney is a spineless piece of shit and the system around him (meaning the state apparatus) is set up to create more spineless pieces of shit who are actually often much worse than the bad guys in question.
