    7/10

    Not for everyone

    Not for everyone. Even for the people it's made for, there are no likable characters. Lots of wasteful scenes and dialogue, almost as if to extend the runtime of an episode. The dialogue is high quality, but many characters feel like the same person in the ways in which they speak. There are lots of academic terms and language. The comedy is sometimes amazing (Tom & Greg). The problem with this show is, it feels like a FORTY HOUR MEETING. They never EVER stop talking about making some sort of deal or acquisition, and there is no room for anything else. No conglomerate of people are that obsessed with work.

    Season 1 (8/10) Season 2 (7.25/10) Season 3 (6/10) Season 4 (8/10)

    Final episode is a phenomenal 9/10.
