Also Andy. He was clearly in love and wanted her back.. she basically had a foot out the door & was close only in moments of triumph. At the end, Axe got to his Achilles heel and gutted his move on Wendy.
@@anubhavnigam2483 That, too. Prince wasn't willing to cut any ties to win, he always wanted at least one person on his side. Axe obviously wanted people with him, especially Wendy, but he wasn't above screwing them over if needed.
Yeah, Mike should have left Axe alone. Axe was already asleep and didn't want any conflicts and competitions. Mike went all by himself to another continent to wake a monster, a monster whose wounds had healed and just wanted to live the rest of his life in exile. He went and kindled the fire and rage in its heart and a raging bloodthirst. He got what was coming for him.
Mike and Grigor were the best villains! Mike was truly formidable and managed to gut axe the most. Hubris got the better of him ultimately and he failed to see the Stauffenbergs lining up to shoot him down. I kinda want a follow up series on the retribution of Michael Prince.
@@ridwanomar5351agreed and with that said, Billions, for a show with no action is superbly written and executed but The Wire is the best show for me personally
The most dangerous enemy is the one who can convince the masses they are a sheep when they are clearly a wolf. The most advantageous ally is the wolf who knows they are and never ceases to howl.
There are no good guys. They are all villains that replace each other. This is game theory. The difference with Mike is the rest of them know they are monsters prepared to do whatever to achieve their goals, whereas Mike doesn’t see his flaws and believes he is above all, morally and intellectually but he’s really not. Kind of a dangerous person to have in charge of one of the most powerful nations. Honestly if you can, watch the show from start to finish, it’s so well written and executed by all involved
@@ykx777Axe is totally a villain, he knows it he’s admitted it and he accepts its who he is. Remember Donny? Remember how when he was dying of cancer, behind the scenes the doctor told Axe that he could extend his life a couple months and Donny would make it to his final christmas? Instead, Axe manipulated the doctor into not telling Donny that and he manipulated Donny with money to his family. He then used the rest of Donnys lifespan to lead Chucks team into a wild goose chase to weaken the case against him. A key witness to testify against Axe Capitals shady practices died under the care of the police, and it’s exactly what Axe wanted no matter the remorse behind it. He was in bed with the Russian mafia for a while. He has Hall, a guy that will sweep anything under the rug for Axe no matter how it’s done. Hell if you’re not sure about all that, the show made it clear that Axe will use anyone and anything to save himself and his company from going under. Axe is an admirable fella, but he’s a straight up villain bro. And like Axe said in this video, ya gotta be a monster to have made it that far in the first place
@@reginaldbutcha4844 None of those things are evil. Serving yourself is not villainy. Donny was dying anyway. It is ethically questionable to use that to your advantage but far from "evil"
@@ykx777he won't answer you, everything is woke to him. He probably doesn't even know what woke mean😂 anyway, that line was actually genius because that's Prince's whole schtick. He is the politically correct wholesome billionaire who's not at all a sociopath. He cares about looking good but deep down he's just as ruthless as Axe. That's why he said that. And also it's hypocritical since he's also "white and male"
He has a good point about how squaring away your enemies list is a great way to remind your enemies they're still your enemies.
Prince was a monster pretending to be a knight, Axe was a monster. That’s why he won
Facts!
Yeah, he was trying to get away from his true self and it bit him.
He won because the writer wrote that story 😂
Fucking Facts!
Prince won but the show made Axe win in the end. It’s got nothing to do with being a monster or a knight 😂😂
Prince lost because he cared too much about appearing as the good guy when winning. Axel was focused on winning, no matter how he looked doing it.
Also Andy. He was clearly in love and wanted her back.. she basically had a foot out the door & was close only in moments of triumph. At the end, Axe got to his Achilles heel and gutted his move on Wendy.
Well said bob

Great recap... kindly keep uploading interesting recaps from the show, specially of main characters and most intense moments... thank you

"best healthcare in the world" is a pretty wild statement.
How has no one ever thought to cast Corey Stoll as Lex Luthor? Mike Prince is the perfect template
He may yet be in the new movies?
Bobby Axelrod… what a legend
No TV series today Beats BILLIONS
The wire
@@ridwanomar5351agreed and with that said, Billions, for a show with no action is superbly written and executed but The Wire is the best show for me personally
succession
Industry
House MD but like them both just as much
Prince was so smug he almost deserved to be put down. At least Axe was not pretending to be a savior. Per his own words; " I am a monster "
Great vid, thanks for posting it!
These guys fought the hell out of their balls
The Nope from everyone is hilarious.

The most dangerous enemy is the one who can convince the masses they are a sheep when they are clearly a wolf.
The most advantageous ally is the wolf who knows they are and never ceases to howl.
He was a formidable opponent.
Reggie is absolute class 👌🏻
When do we get the spinoffs? Billions London or Miami? Get Axe again, make some money for your production.
Bobby nailed it
Rich people are weird.
Yes we are. When you say rich, what do you mean by that? Money?
Not gonna lie his 2nd act would be crazy that’s one guy u would have to put down
Not doing, Mike, DONE! ❤
Is that Tek Knight??
Were to get billions ?
Paramount+
17:15 is that Vic from Penguin?
Yeah axe character always wins, big woop
That boardroom was a DEI initiative
Based off this, Mike looks like the good guy. What did he do that was so awful?

he was acting good, he wanted to launch nukes and genocide other nations. he quotes hitler at another part

This story is loosely based on Steve cohen… spinoffs?…..
The entire "you're white and male" is such a lame woke line.
Imagine watching this compilation and this is what you thought was worth commenting on.
What pussy era we live in lol.
yup show turned woke really fast
@@anirudhagarwal2132 how did that make the show woke? why are you so triggered
