    I think a lot of people have decided not to go because of the presidential involvement. The main protagonist of Axelrod is not going, at the very least :)

    So the Suits vs Billions question. I don't like cheesy winner-tough-good-guy stories, which is what Suits is. In real life, there are no clear good guys or clear bad guys, which is how Billions is presenting it.

    PS. The PM/trader comp numbers from the show are totally wacky, obviously, but I guess it perpetuates the whole idea of a "loaded hedge fund guy"

    Man this show is pulling out all the stops. Even a Nassim Taleb reference. Love it!

    A bit on the bitter "evil bankers" side of the story this time around.

  8. Show is unrealistic fantasy bullshit.

    All the real Masters of the Universe inhabit chat boards in cyberspace and never go out of the house.
