official billions (showtime) watch thread

I'm looking forward to it. The pilot was solid, plus I'm a big fan of Paul Giamatti and Damien Lewis

I enjoyed it. I have always been a fan of Lewis.

If you have Showtime anytime you can watch an early premiere of it on there

I streamed it on couchtuner.

I enjoyed it, there is certainly room for this sort of show.

Malin Akerman's character might be pretty bad, though. I thought her parts in the trailer were awful and the full show wasn't much better.

Just watched the pilot... Definitely will go give it a try, the two leads are very strong actors... I think Paul Giamatti's supporting role in Cinderella Man is one of my favorite acting performances in the last 15 years, something tells me he will be pretty good in this as well

Should change this thread title to "Billions" or something more official

Done

I watched last night. Really liked it.


And no need to catch up. It airs Sunday. The first episode was put up on the app already tho

Besides the opening and closing scenes, not a single thing felt like it wasn't expected.

Precisely my criticism of the pilot, which left a great deal to be desired, as well.

As of now we have the wife of an U.S. attorney working with a man this same U.S. attorney wants to utterly destroy and send to prison. Now that's clever writing.

Perhaps the show will grow and become less predictable. I hope so because if done right the subject matter could prove to be enjoyable and interesting.

I will be watching to see how Maggie Siff's character reacts to the dynamics to determine if it's worth continued viewership.

I guess not
