billions is fun, but it does wade into FX show territory at times. lewis and giamatti are good enough to anchor it all.

While it didn’t go full farce the plot with the mayors was exceptionally well set up.

finished both The Dropout and Super Pumped. Both were excellent and really fun. Amazing performances by the leads and the cast but damn i was really impressed with Gordon Levitt in the final ep of SP. He took it to the next level really.

I just finished Super Pumped this morning - watched the last 3 episodes solo as my wife couldn't stand Travis. I really enjoyed the whole thing

The last few episodes of season 1 of The Last Man on Earth is playing in the background. I love Will Forte so dang much.

Have been far more in movie mode over the past year, but have been swinging back around to television over the past month or so. I finished Severance (a really great season, with an extremely well-directed finale), and Station Eleven (one of my favorite TV shows in a while, though probably for different reasons than I like most shows). Looking to start Tokyo Vice, and still have to dive into Atlanta and Better Caul Saul, which are two of the bIggest ones in terms of what I've never seen.
