Anyone else see this one?

It's a new series on Showtime. Hubby and I tried it because we were looking for something new and we both really like one of the lead actors (the guy from Life).

The first episode was remarkably good. I was a little uncertain at first because I don't like shows about a bunch of unpleasant people being unpleasant to each other. This wasn't that at all.

The show is intelligent, the writing is stellar and the characters are refreshingly complex.

Damien Lewis in the lead together with Paul Giammanti (bad spelling). Well scripted, with sharp, clever dialogue and terrific performances. I love it.

I haven't seen it because I'm waiting for the season to be over so I can binge all at once. But I'm extremely interested. I like Damien Lewis from Band of Brothers and Homeland. I also miss Maggie Siff from Sons of Anarchy. And I figured that since I loved Too Big to Fail, I will probably like Billions.
