I've seen the first couple episodes. Pretty good so far with Paul Giamatti playing an US attorney going after hedge fund shenanigans.

5 fast facts on Billions
Although Billions’ creators told The Wall Street Journal that there was “no direct correspondence between Wall Street and their cable TV depictions,” The New York Post alleged that the show “appears to be inspired by U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara’s pursuit of criminal charges against hedge-fund mogul Steve Cohen.” The securities fraud case pitted Bharara, a U.S Attorney, against SAC Capital Advisors CEO, Cohen.
