    BILLIONS on Showtime

    Paul Giamatti pulling weight. I just keep thinking of him in his John Adams garb being humiliated by his dominatrix wife. I just saw the first one so I guess i'm behind a bit. Anyone else in on this?

    I talked about this on radio a few weeks ago. Think the show is great and I don't watch a whole lot of tv.

    All I can say is "16"

    Only watching two things now.

    "Billions" has some great characters. Top top. I gotta find something to read about the show writers & background.

    Finally getting to "The Wire". Lol, season 1 episode 4 so far.

    Television today just crushes the big screen.

    Yup, seen every episode so far. I'm liking it.

    Only show in years that I find myself making plans to watch.

    very true, but kind of a moonlanding. TV's been better for years now. the wire season 1 was 14 years ago.

    Just watched the free episode that was posted on here and thought it was really good. Also cool that it was written by Koppelman and Levien from Rounders.

    Does that mean that the psychotherapist is the rake?

    Something must be unique about this show for this thread to have made it this far without Sonatine offering biting critique.

    There is a chance he hasn't peeped it yet. It totally got under my radar. If that is the case, he's probably avoiding this thread like the plague until he sees it because.. spoilers.

    I feel the exact same weigh Sloppy Joe. Sonatine is worth it. His opinions are excellent!!! Anyone who says differently is a fucking asshole.

    Sonatine please tell us all your opinion of Showtime's original series Billions. We value your opinion. We love you! We all know that suicide is for fucking pussies and the only bloated corpse will be the one in Dexter Season 2 episode 3. IT WILL NOT BE YOU FOUND IN LANNISTER'S cabin. I can guarantee it. You are worth it! Tell yourself you are worth it at least 10 times each day and you will naturally stop being depressed and anxious big guy.

    Also be sure to drink plenty of water and get plenty of rest. Don't compare yourself to others! Compare yourself to how you were yesterday! I promise I'm not the only one here that wants you to post more. I will be going after any and all people that give you abuse! Post freely as if it is impossible that you could ever get beaten up.

    Cheers,

    Im enjoying the Metallica song references in these past two shows.


    Axe wearing the Metallica shirt to buy the name rights for the building. The album title: MASTER OF PUPPETS

    the song Metallica plays for him pre show: HARVESTER OF SORROW

    His favorite song: FADE TO BLACK



    foreshadowing?

    Interesting episode last night.

    Not sure where they're going with the BDSM plot line but I'm in.

    Lots of gimmicks to designed to keep you interested - lesbian sex, colorful characters that cuss a lot, old men fucking young girls, etc.

    Why can't it stand on its own, without having to be provocative for the sake of being provocative?

    Pretty good acting and soundtrack. I give it 6 out of 10
