Any thoughts on Billions? (sh.itjust.works)

Been looking for something new to watch and came across Billions, not sure how I've not seen it before.

Got good reviews and a nice cast, didn't see it discussed much over on Reddit or here.

Any thoughts or experience with it would be cool!

The first few seasons are great TV! Admittedly, I’m struggling to finish the most recent season as it isn’t as good as the early seasons. I wholeheartedly recommend this series for the great cast and interesting subject matter (NY based financial, legal, political)!

Started great, last season not so much, but it's trying to make a comeback. 1st 2 seasons are amazing.

Paul Giamatti and Adrian Lewis (in the beginning), how can you go wrong?

This (final) season is a bit ridiculous but still fun.

I've enjoyed it more than I expected, somehow they brought life back into it, Paul feels like he's back on his game.

I loved this show but stopped watching when Giamatti was leading a revolt of the local peasants on a tractor.

Is it worth pushing through the last bit?

I, too, have pondered watching this.
