Billions first started airing on Showtime mid January 2016. A much simpler time. Created by Brian Koppelman, David Levien, and Andrew Ross Sorkin. The series rocked up 84 total episodes. The series set primarily in New York and Connecticut, the series depicts hedge fund manager Bobby Axelrod (Damian Lewis) as he accumulates wealth and power in the world of high finance.
Bobby Axelrod was replaced by Corey Stoll as Michael Thomas Aquinas Prince a business magnate, grew up as small town Indiana farm boy, who seemingly wants to give back to society. Prince becomes Chuck Rhoades (Paul Giamatti) next main enemy, then in season seven, he is almost everyone's enemy.
We see end games this season for series favourite psychiatrist turned performance coach Wendy Rhoades (Maggie Siff), market analyst Taylor Mason (Asia Kate Dillon), and Axelrod's right-hand man Mike "Wags" Wagner (David Costabile).
The characters are larger than life the language is Showtime standard rough AF while the series in Australia, all 84 episodes now, stream exclusively on Stan.
This will be Stan's last Showtime streaming now all new Showtime (merging with Paramount anyway) will live/stream on Paramount+. That includes new miniseries Fellow Travelers which launches this week as Billions Sunday screening replacement.
Admirals Fund ends fairly tidy for a series that has wrapped up its seven season run.
