Let's be honest, this show is not for typical tv viewers. There is a lot in each episode to sift through, between the characters interactions, how events cause reactions that don't happen until episodes later; even the financial "jargon" they use is confusing.
Not to mention the subject just might not be someone's cup of tea.
However that does little to subtract from the show. On the contrary I like the fact we get drawn deep into the "Industry". The writing is excellent, the soundtrack is something any synth lover would adore, the characters are multi-dimensional with their own shortcomings and goals. And the cinematography as well as the continuity, are both great. I noticed in a scene after a meeting that the characters in the meeting were going back to their desks in the background unfocused which was a nice touch.
Overall I would recommend this to anyone who would be remotely interested in what would go on in a high level bank or even for some sleazy office drama.
