Sunday Safe Bet

Why it’s a Sunday Safe Bet

People are still talking about it and it earned strong reviews (92% on Rotten Tomatoes), though it had a lukewarm 6.9 out of 10 from audiences and a short run with a modest audience. A safe bet when you want something reliable.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it: Made for anyone who loves a strong character drama. Critics rate it higher than audiences do, so it rewards patience more than it chases thrills.
The mood: Thoughtful and character-driven.
The pace: 4 seasons: a few months of evenings.
What might put you off: Rated TV-MA: meant for adults.
Audiences were cooler on it than critics.

In the cutthroat world of international finance, a group of young graduates compete for a limited set of permanent positions at a top investment bank in London. The boundaries between colleague, friend, lover, and enemy soon blur as they immerse themselves in a company culture defined as much by sex, drugs and ego as it is by deals and dividends.
