This insanely dark and hilariously fucked-up show about scumbags at a London investment bank is on its third season, so I think it deserves its own thread. This shit makes Succession look like Eight Is Enough.

The season 3 premiere might be the first time I've ever seen an erect penis on HBO. It goes by subliminally fast, but the circumstances under which it's seen are scarring to say the least.

Reviving this thread since season 4 premiered tonight. Am I really the only person watching this insanely evil show? I re-watched the season 3 finale right before the premiere, and that was insanely dark, almost Kubrick-level in its evisceration of upper-class scum. It seems like they're trying to make Harper (the nominal protagonist) a little less of a blatant sociopath this season, but that's obviously a fakeout.

insanely dark? thought it was just unbelievable bollocks tbh. but hey maybe they can finally go a whole season without relying on someone overhearing something important in a bathroom this time.

I am only on Season 2! … I am also watching (slowly) a youtube series where two women who actually work in investment banking discuss how realistic the show is. Apparently there are a lot of details that are super accurate! …

I think there was an erect penis in Season 1 tbh

New season has been quite a ride so far. Harper and Eric overleveraged and flailing about. Yasmin leaning into her evil abuser side with her underling. Jon Snow shooting smack but everyone still kisses his ass. Jonathan from Stranger Things totally unraveling at the first hint of adversity. What a bunch of messy people!

The most recent episode (season 4 episode 4) was not as good as the ones before (2 and 3 were incredible), but still had its share of "I didn't need to see that" moments.

Jesus Christ, Rishi. You're a disaster.

episode 2 was a highlight

Tonight's episode was a few minutes longer than usual - almost felt like a season finale but I figure there's gotta be even more crash-out to come.

I think this may be the best season so far. This latest episode was gut wrenching.
