Billions season six episode 1 (on showtime.anytime early)(spoilers)


And Just Like That, we get episodes filled with pop culture references. Which can be fun, but unfortunately Prince is a big basketball fan and I didn't get most of the arcane player references. Other than that, no real conflict established for the season.

I can't believe this show has lasted 6 seasons. What happened to the original billionaire guy?

reply

At the end of season 5 he was supposed to cut a deal with Rhodes, but he flew off to Switzerland instead as they don't extradite to the USA.

reply

Lewis for Stoll is a big downgrade, but the conflict is the same as it has always been.

There's a chance that Axe will reappear before the show ends. Fingers crossed.

reply

No. No chance. Damian Lewis is gone. It’s like hoping Kim Cattrall returns to And Just Like That. ZERO chance.

Move on.

reply

Lewis and the show runners didn't close the door. And an expiring contract coupled with personal tragedy is nothing like the Cattrall shit show. ZERO ill will. After Homeland and Billions, Lewis is a cornerstone of the Showtime stable. His character was killed off in Homeland, yet he still managed to reappear (via a Carrie hallucination) before the show ended. Again, nothing like the Sex in the City sniping saga.

“and,” not “in.”

Great call.
