    I really wanted to like this season as I used to work in the hedge fund business. The dialog and characters remain excellent and with just a bit of adjustment for hyperbole, almost pitch perfect to form. The thing that just never made sense all season was how Paul Giamatti out of nowhere became a billionaire hater after years of fighting far into the gray actions of Axe Capital.

The thing that just never made sense all season was how Paul Giamatti out of nowhere became a billionaire hater after years of fighting far into the gray actions of Axe Capital. And try as I wanted, it just got worse and worse. Maybe the writers were trying to do a big switch in which Michael Prince is the good guy and Chuck Rhoades is the bad guy? But really, this is jarring and approaches a full “jump the shark” moment. Kinda sad to be candid. Expand

    Huge drop off in the quality of the show. Perhaps it has just run it’s course. Either way season 6 was a disappointment, and I won’t be watching anymore. Btw the eccentric dialogue has become exhausting!

    This season, all of the sudden the writing, directing, and music is weak and geared towards the Boomer generation specifically. The whole vibe of the show has changed. And like others have said, too many annoying and unrelatable similes!

    The Rhoades campaign against a city run by a "cabal of billionaires," and his railing against "plutocrats," provides the sort of hook that, through five episodes anyway, has moved "Billions" from "hold" back into the "strong buy" column.

    Even with this refresh, all the familiar “Billions” trappings are still here. ... Having a deep bench of actors who understand the show’s cadences and interests, in whatever season the show happens to be in, always helps.
