Extremely fine series. Hopefully there will be a sequel to this.

I was a bit afraid at first of that cheesy Sm thing but luckily it turned out to be not too bad.

Giamatti and Lewis are well matched as the alpha males and Maggie Siff is a breath of fresh air.

I actually had a different expectation with this series, thinking it would focus more on the world of finance (and government). But the emphasis is more on the psychology and morals of the type of people in those sectors. Not a bad idea in itself, but sometimes it gets a little too popular. Still curious about next season, looking forward to further. Giamatti is really in top form at times.

A (often literally) soporific spectacle, with an excess of nonsensical dialogue. Skyshowtime even felt the need to have it translated by an idiot, or by AI, or both. "Short gaan" (short going) was invariably translated as "kort gaan" (short going), for example. My appreciation for the two protagonists' performances was above average, which carried me through to the middle of season 3, but by then I'd had enough of the abysmal translation of the dialogue.
