Billions - Season 5 (Ep 1 & 2)
Really enjoyed episode 1, episode 2 was underwhelming. Episode 2 seemed to be resting on the shows laurels and just coasting.
For the most part, the series has been good at pushing the characters forward. However, with strong female characters that don’t get as much to work with and push forward, that’s an area the show can really step forward, especially considering Maggie Siff and Condola Rashad’s characters are terrifically written and acted roles. Give them more to work with, rather than just side characters to Paul Giamatti and Damian Lewis’ character growth, I think the show can really keep things going. If not, then they should think about stopping it, soon. Otherwise, it will wear out its welcome.
