Mo leads his team of misfit traders, including no-nonsense Dawn (Regina Hall, Girls Trip), eager-to-please Keith (SAG® Award winner Paul Scheer, The League), wild man Wayne (Horatio Sanz, Saturday Night Live), and hotshot Yassir (Yassir Lester, Making History). Into this motley mix walks Blair Pfaff (Tony® Award nominee and Grammy® winner Andrew Rannells, Girls), a young wide-eyed trader who gets in way over his head. Together, they take on the moneyed, blueblood, old-boys club of New York finance and end up unwittingly crashing a Lamborghini limousine, the glass ceiling and the world?s largest financial system in this scathing comic commentary on 1980s excess.

More Critic Reviews for Black Monday Season 1 All Critics (44) | Top Critics (23) | Fresh (24) | Rotten (20) When you've got a cast like Black Monday's and dialogue like Black Monday's and costumes like Black Monday's, you should be able to forgive a story that isn't quite as remarkable as it might think. Apr 4, 2019 | Full Review… Heather Schwedel Slate Top Critic As an actor, Cheadle obviously enjoys this sort of ride. From House of Lies to Black Monday requires little more than a change of wardrobe. The characters of Marty Kaan and Mo Monroe otherwise are cut from the same cloth. Feb 14, 2019 | Rating: C+ | Full Review… Ed Bark Uncle Barky Top Critic A show with an incredible ensemble of talented actors but as little focus as its cocaine-addled characters. Jan 16, 2019 | Full Review… Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com Top Critic Awash in red flags for a burgeoning series, as the lead character is a questionable, outdated pick and the premise begs for a quick resolution to the mystery being teased. But viewers could do a lot worse than invest in this likely crash. Jan 14, 2019 | Rating: B- | Full Review… Ben Travers indieWire Top Critic To be honest, all this gets old pretty fast. Feb 15, 2019 | Full Review… Joe Weisenthal Bloomberg News Black Monday has an interesting topic, but it chose to tell it four different ways rather than focusing on one interesting way. Jan 25, 2019 | Rating: 1.5/4 | Full Review… Christopher James AwardsCircuit.com Despite a great performance by Regina Hall and some decent jokes, Black Monday is a hollow series that has a loud, overwhelming focus on obnoxious greed. Jan 24, 2019 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review… Allison Keene Collider It lacks any compelling through-line as a drama or a comedy, which is not even to mention how this intellectual vacuum renders those pesky non-PC jokes pretty unfunny. Jan 22, 2019 | Full Review… Bridget Read Vogue Black Monday is silly, politically incorrect, loud, puerile and relies on lots of penis gags. Obviously I enjoyed it. May 30, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review… Carol Midgley Times (UK) Top Critic Four episodes in, Black Monday's tonal mash-up makes more sense. The mix of sitcom plotting, Seth Rogen/Judd Apatow-style bro banter, and glossy cable period-piece is starting to gel. Feb 19, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review… Lara Zarum New York Magazine/Vulture Top Critic View All Critic Reviews (44) Audience Reviews for Black Monday: Season 1 Aug 25, 2019 HILARIOUS. Took me back to a time before so many shows seemed politically correct.Regina Hall did an excellent job. Sam G Aug 10, 2019 Best new show of the year Joshua G Jul 21, 2019 The critics who panned this are CRAZY! This show is great! Hilarious and dusted with just enough drama to make the viewer care. The comedic acting is fantastic -- Cheadle has never been better -- and Regina Hall is a perfect foil for him. The 80s vibe only makes it more enjoyable. Can't wait for Season 2! John A Jul 12, 2019 Loved the first ep which also probably made it hard for the rest of the series to maintain that level, as my interest did wane throughout. Excellent soundtrack/score! Steve H Jun 29, 2019 The montage at the end is one of the best TV moments I've experienced. Shawn G. C Jun 06, 2019 Edgy fast and furious, love 80's references and even flash back to 60's. Some excellent 1 liners Ian W Apr 28, 2019 Binged in a day. I really hope Seth Rogen and Regina Hall make Season 2 IMMEDIATELY. I have so many unanswered questions. Apr 12, 2019 Fun. Fast paced. Witty. Funny. Good story. Fantastic acting. Want to see more. Scott S Apr 09, 2019 TV REVIEW: 8.3/10 "TV'S WOLVES OF WALL STREET" You truly can't trust anyone down on Wall Street can you? But you can count on them for some outrageous antics and drug-filled entertainment to make this new comedy series a hit in our minds. What else would you expect from producers Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, who have made us laugh so hard over the years with movies like Superbad, Pineapple Express, and This is the End. Starring Don Cheadle, Andrew Rannells, and Regina Hall, Black Monday follows the misadventures and misdeeds of a second-tier Wall Street firm leading up to the infamous stock market crash of 1987. What makes Black Monday such a hit is that its mayhem and chaos is mixed in with some quality storytelling, all within a nice 10 episode season where each episode is only a half-hour long. Meaning you can quickly binge this show on a nice hangover Sunday and you'll feel like you did after you watched The Wolf of Wall Street. Simply put, it's a cast of crazy characters, all finding new ways to maneuver their way to the top in an 80's setting where they go all-out on the costumes and hairspray. So get ready for a nice day at work because all the sex, drugs, and alcohol means it was just another good day at the office. "THE WALL STREET CRASH WITH LAUGHS" Flicks & Apr 03, 2019 This show is sick af! Great story, great acting, fantastic delivery. I just finished the first season and I sincerely hope there is a second season, there still is plenty more story left.
