TV show description:
This contemporary New York drama is set in the world of high finance. Wealth, influence, and corruption, connections, calculations, and machinations rule the day.
A sharp U.S. Attorney, Chuck Rhoades (Paul Giamatti) leads the charge against corruption in American finance. A storied prosecutor, Rhoades has reigned victorious in 81 insider trading trials. He has not lost one.
A self-made billionaire, Bobby Axelrod (Damian Lewis), controls one of the most lucrative hedge funds in the world. This fortuitous 9/11 survivor remembers his leaner roots, even while leading a luxurious lifestyle.
Despite his best intentions, the temptations of his world muddy the lines, for Axe. He plays his cards close to the vest.
Wendy Rhoades (Maggie Siff) is a psychiatrist. She works for Axelrod as an in-house performance coach. Axe Capital hired her before her husband, Chuck, was a U.S. Attorney.
Wendy is not inclined to sacrifice her own career for her man’s. When Chuck uncovers evidence implicating Axelrod, he takes great care in his approach. Is his caution due to experience or his wife’s livelihood?
The beautiful Lara Axelrod (Malin Akerman) has taught herself to play the role of a billionaire’s spouse. This former nurse has modest roots. She does what she must to protect her love ones and accomplish her own goals.
Tenacious Chief Assistant U.S. Attorney Bryan Connerty (Toby Leonard Moore) is a principled lawyer with a humble beginning. He looks up to Chuck, who in turn, considers Connerty his go-to guy. Who will prove to be the better man?
A WASP, the Chief Operating Officer of Axe Capital, Mike “Wags” Wagner (David Costabile), must earn his keep. He has raised brown-nosing to an art form but has proven to Axelrod that he is a reliable ally.
An Ivy League alum, DA Kate Sacker (Condola Rashad) has public service aspirations. Connerty recognizes the value this protégé brings to the team. He appreciates other things about her, too.
Series Finale:
Episode #84 — Admiral’s Fund
Trust is built and broken as fate hangs in the balance for all when Chuck, Axe and Prince have the ultimate showdown.
First aired: October 29, 2023.
What do you think? Do you like the Billions TV show? Do you think it should have ended or been renewed for an eighth season?
I think it’s a great show and I don’t think it should be cancelled, but renewed.

Keep it
keeeeeeep it
Great, great show! please re-new for another season.
Damn keep the show, everything good get cancelled, this is a great show.
Please, please,please RENEW this show!!!!!!!! It is so good, and the cast is outstanding. I can’t help it that most people want stupid programming and reality shows. Don’t people know that all the reality shows are staged!! Wake up – it is not real. All the great shows get cancelled early on, and all the TV junk keeps marching on (eg. pad crap like NCIS that has been on for years). Why can’t people just use their brains and get into something where you have to think about the storyline and the character interactions. I think Billions could be as… Read more »
Renew the show. Love it
It’s a great show, but I think it does/can drag, or can expect what to come! Would love to see this show to get picked up for a new season! Does definitely has GREAT POTENTIAL for second season! Paul Giamatti is totally WONDERFUL in his part, as well as Siff in her role as Paul’s wife, & they both are truly addicted to S & M.
This show is guaranteed to get cancelled. Everything in the show is just overhyped for no reason and they bring nothing new to the subject. Just flashing expensive stuff and sex to get attention. The main reason I am sure it will get cancelled is because I cant see anyway in which anyone will root for either main character. They are both so annoying that I just want them both to fail and soon. Even the supporting characters such as their wives are so gross. One acts like her little speeches would work in real life therapy and the other… Read more »
LMAO BOY ARE YOU WRONG
I really liked the 1st episode, it has a tremendous cast, and Paul Giamatti and Damien Lewis make for amazing adversaries, and great to see Maggie Siff back, she was one of my favorite actors on, “Sons of Anarchy.”
