Thoroughly enjoyed a however I thought the ending was a bit of an anticlimax. Obviously leaving a lot open for S2

Ending I thought was done such that if the series did not get a second season it could end there or it could carry on. It was a climax but of course you want answers to other questions.

I loved it, Dollar bill was excellent but all of Axelrods staff are so extream they wont bend or fold for the FBI its not love for Bobby I think its aggrogence in their own importance so why would they let the likes of the FBI bother them.

Thought I'd give this a bump. Those Stateside can stream first episode of new season on Shotime website and starts airing on TV on the 19th. Not sure when it lands on Atlantic.

Great programme.
I think the length of this thread demonstrates how insular bulk watching is. It removes most of the enjoyment of discussing it in a weekly basis.

First 2 eps of the second series and it shows no sign of flagging. Really loving this programme, probably the best thing on TV at the moment. IMO of course.

I think Maggie Siff is very, very, VERY acceptable.

Still very much enjoying Billions. Damian Lewis is a good actor but I don't think I've seen him playing a (mostly) bad guy before and I like it.

Axe has nice Porsche 993 this series then. What was it in series 1? A Charger or something of that ilk I think.

I have to say Billions is what I look forward to watching during the week now. I love that there is no good / bad side in reality.

I suspect he has rather more than one car. Decent enough entertainment, better than a lot of the carp on the box although I wouldn't actually miss it if it was pulled.

Nice to see John-Boy got a good job after leaving the mountain.

Liking this series more than the 1st, it is maturing. We know the characters, and more are being added. It's getting quite watchable. Reminds me of how Boardwalk Empire matured.

Yep, quality show.

Wags is always good for a laugh - "no, not rehab!"

Thought the deposition scene at the end of last episode was really good. Looking forward to seeing who gets the upper hand next week. Think Axe saying he can claim damages for losing the NFL bid is a bit of a stretch

Really enjoyed this weeks show. Wish I could watch next weeks now!!

Realising I might be at sea so will have to wait until June is a daunting thought.

As somebody said earlier, season 2 has matured and it gets better and better with character development.

With shows like this it makes me realise movies don't fill me with much excitement anymore.
