Industry can't escape being compared to Billions which - with all its shortcomings - is probably considered the best finance tv-series around.
Yet Industry is my new favourite (and a close second for all those lured by the crazy plot-twists of Billions): indeed a more realistic and better written one in a lot of departments.
I don't have the time nor the background to feel like dissecting the storylines, the cliffhangers, the characters, the overall writing style, the acting.
Let's simplify by saying that overall Billions is better produced and hits harder with a lot of climaxes, surprises and... billions.
Industry on the other end is more consistent, less pretentious and more realistically focused on the daily experiences of new-hires in a wealth management firm. Unfortunately some plot holes, puzzling characters and overindulgent coverage of sex-drug related behaviours drag the production down quite a bit.
