A Most Enjoyable Billions

I have to say, Sunday's episode of Billions was perhaps one of the most enjoyable episodes I've ever watched of any series. And I've seen A LOT of television.

Sure the Traveling Wilburys soundtrack was great, but the stories were the best. And there were plenty of angles to pay attention to. In fact, there were more angles than were on my 1964 New York State Geometry Regents exam. So many, they are best described in rhyme:

                                   Axe is back,
                                   And Taylor is pissed.
                                   Lara is mad,
                                   And Black Jack shits.

                                   Old man Rhoades
                                   Has the evening made,
                                   Until his plans
                                   Are waaay laid.

                                   Bryan Connerty
                                   Is looking tired.
                                   And then of course
                                   Is summarily fired.

                                   Dollar Bill and Spyros
                                   Minds have gotten,
                                   With the SEC knowledge
                                   They're a plottin'.

                                   Rhoades the junior
                                   Who is known as Chuck,
                                    Is a Machiavellian
                                   Who is really a fuck.

                                   And Wendy, while not
                                   Having put anyone to death,
                                   Is the 21st Century's
                                   Lady Macbeth.

                                   So the producers and writers
                                   Have set the stage a quiver,
                                   And next week will
                                   Once again deliver.

                                   What, a further tale of lies and deceit,
                                   Machinations and human stupidity?
                                   It's anyone's guess,
                                   If there will be nudity.
