10 TV Shows You Need To Binge Watch Right Now

6. Billions

This particular selection is one that has slipped under the majority of people's radar, sadly. Billions shines as a show that balances the greed of capitalism with characters who have truly good intentions.

It revolves around hedge fund managers and essentially doing whatever it takes in order to keep capital in their favor. For the uninitiated, picture House of Cards with capitalism instead of politics.

Similar to most of the entries on this list, the acting in this show is top notch. The main core consists of show stealing performances by Damian Lewis, Paul Giamatti, Maggie Siff, and David Costabile.

As Billions quickly unravels, it forces the viewers to pick and choose who they want to root for. While most shows have some aspect of this dynamic, Billions takes it to another level. You favorite character might become your least favorite by the next season, and it is a tense enthralling journey along the way.

If you are in the mood to see power plays, people literally rolling in money, and the things that they will do to keep power and capital, then this is the perfect show for you.
