Anyone watching either of these? I'm really enjoying them both. I've been a fan of Damian Lewis since Band of Brothers, and Paul Giamatti is a favorite of mine. Vinyl is just fast and entertaining.

i starting watching Vinyl but stopped after episode 3ish...just wasn't interested in any of the characters. The subject matter was right up my alley but i couldn't care less about any of them. (love, hate, admire etc....) nada...no emotions whatsoever for me.

my old lady is absolutely hooked on it though.

Vinyl had me pretty excited but now I'm just watching it because I started it, and because Olivia Wilde's merkin.

Have not watched Vinyl, but have watched Billions since the start. I've always liked Paul Giamatti, and I became a fan of Damien Lewis from his stint on Homeland. First season's writing has been a bit uneven at times, but even when it lags the acting pulls through. Will watch season 2 next year.

Watching Billions.  It'll pass the time, until the next season of House of Lies returns.

Honestly, I saw the previews and it looked like a bunch of drug-addled horndogs behaving badly.  I'm no prude, but I have a limit on the level of HBO-induced debauchery I can handle at one time, and I get all I need from Veep  ThumbsUp
