B
In fact, it's a nice change of pace to see Billions focused largely on a single set piece. Go to Full Review Scott Tobias New York Times 05/09/2018
A good example of how Season 2 is playing with different ways of exercising power. Go to Full Review Brian Tallerico New York Magazine/Vulture 05/08/2018
4/5
A lean, fat-free season of Billions continues its wonderfully streamlined pace, developing new characters and allowing old ones to sink further into the quicksand. Go to Full Review Comfortably Smug Decider 06/20/2018
Wow, PLUS 12? Another MONSTER score for an episode of season 2 of Billions. Much like the Dow, the Billions Reality Index keeps pushing to new all-time highs week after week. Go to Full Review Sarah Caldwell Refinery29 05/09/2018
It's never really presented clearly enough for me. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
