Billions (2016–2023)

Good acting bad writing
12 February 2016
I waited till I watched 4 episodes before I gave my opinion of this show. I really like Lewis as an actor. Homeland has gone down hill without him. Band of brothers rocked. But no matter how hard he rocks it as an actor, nothing can save this show from such poor writing. First off, it's very cliché and pseudo edgy. Adding sex into a show doesn't make it interesting when the rest of the script sucks. You simply can't count on it to produce a great show, just ask stars....or at least take your dribble there. There is also way to much filler crap going on that has nothing to do with the story line. It's like they couldn't expand the actual story so you get inconsequential dribble for 30 minutes of a 54 minute show. The cast of this show is fairly good. I'm kind of shocked that they agreed to actually take part in this show with such bad writing. I have nothing bad to say about the acting. It couldn't be acted better. But they simply can't save this show from the terrible writing. The worst part of it for Lewis is he's the main character so he can't get lucky enough to be written out of this flop. You would make better use of your time taking the dog for a walk than watching this crap. Don't have a dog...borrow the neighbors.
