Some great banter between Charles Snr and Jock.

@Scabutz...I feel Wendy and Wags 'connection' in the previous episode has bought them closer

Axe to nail Maggie Siff by end of season? It's looking feasible !

Chuck Jnr and Snr have made some big mistakes on tape but you just know a twist in the tail is coming there also.

Enjoying this season although it's getting close to overplaying some characters

Episode 11 bringing things back on track. Top episode.
Clearly Connarty is the idiot with the most to lose but Jock hasn't cottoned on to the scheme of Chuck's yet. What I don't get is when Chuck figured out his old man was in trouble and how he had time to come up with the disinformation plan. The clues are there so hopefully it will be revealed next week.

Axe looked royally pissed off at no longer needing the 3bil and I suspect he's going to burn Saler's down if it takes Taylor down too.

Wags is like the mascot of Axe Cap and the consiglieri so his job at the end was to make Wendy feel good again so she's firing on all cylinders for Axe when he deploys whatever Victor brought him.

Coming to the boil nicely...

Great episode after the disappointing New Years Day one. Feel like this season is the best one yet.

I’ll save the spoilers then, but agree it was great. Not completely unexpected outcomes, but like the direction of the plot.

Very good ep, the twist on the deal was expected but was delivered in a fresh way, the larger scalp was almost ancillary.
THe Taylor thing, a but Good Bad and the Ugly? I'm sure next year won't be easy to predict.
Bit of a shame that the two man power trip has come to an end, but ah well. But when Chuck waxes wroth, he is brilliant! A reall grandmaster. I hope he tts ginger next year but it costs him dear...if it hasn't already

Possibly the best episode to date, even if some of it was expected/predicted. Excellent stuff.

But did they?

Not bad ending, some stuff was predictable, others not so. This was one of the best seasons yet, I think in large part down to what I said early in the thread, The kids, Axes wife, none of the family bullst was in it. It was all action. Think there may have been a couple of plot holes. Will let everyone catch up before discussing those, spoilers ban for another day or so.

Great finale!

not sure if we still have to put spoiler tags now it’s played in the uk? But whoever called it about the American flag badge bug was spot on. Great number of twists to wrap things up, so much more satisfaction than Game Of Thrones final episode

Fantastic season finale.

I doubt I’ll be watching next season though. Taylor annoys me. Not just in Billions but in other things too. They were in John Wick and as soon as their character came on screen I was disappointed.

She isn't his type. He likes blondes who are mentally tough and a little bit curvier.




He isn't her type, she likes them shorter and fatter.

They did not (IMHO).

Great finale but seems we've gone back a couple of seasons now. Tend to agree (unless it's been signed for two more) that the next season could/should be the last - one, final showdown...

Have a feeling Taylor may fade into the background a bit more as she said she'll effectively go for neither and see how it all plays out.

Not sure I care who 'wins' but you have to think that a Wendy/Axe Alliance, if it holds, would be the stronger combination though Chuck does seem to be 'back'.
