Title: Billions
Review: Created by the son of TV virtuoso, Aaron Sorkin, this show is mesmerizing- centered on the conflict between a billionaire investment company (Lewis) and a barely legal US attorney with aspirations for power and office (Giamatti). The dialog is so crisp it is hard to keep up with. The characters are larger than life, brilliant portrayals(Constabile is truly amazing- and Dillon is a revelation). sex, greed, bribes, graft, murder, manipulation galore…. and occasional flashes of humanity. This show is nonstop entertainment as it reaches the close of its current fourth season. Can’t wait for the next episode.
