The episode on Sunday was incredible. Axe is going a bit off of the deep end.

When this thing hits the court room, this show could become amazing.

I honestly did cheer Axe for going after el drunko.

Is anyone else watching this on CraveTV via Telus Optik? For some reason, the latest episode that aired on Sunday March 6 has not been made available for me. Anyone else having this issue?

Season finale for this was last night. I have really enjoyed the show and thought it was a nice journey. I have been surprised this thread has not popped up more. My only worry is the long term sustainability of the show as its so heavily invested in these characters now. Don't know how long they can stretch out a cat and mouse between these 2 players. Looking forward to seeing where it goes though. With how it ended, I would suspect a solid second season continuing the main storyline.

I waited until I had most of a season PVR'd to start watching. I think it has been excellent so far. About 4 episodes in. Just finished the Metallica episode.

Bump for season 2 wrapping up this week.

Second last episode was really well done, didn't see that coming at all.

The last two episodes upped the ante on this show in a big way.

The acting has been incredible.

Basically Chuck threw everything away $26 million, friendships and even his father to bet Axe. He literally became Axe in the end.

Meanwhile Axe was finally confronted with fear, he already had doubt over the stuff with his wife but now he had fear and was consumed with how his kids would see him.

The confrontation in the prison was exceptional as was the whole trap laid for Axe.

The two main characters are just self destructive characters who think that they're smart enough to escape the orbit of each other before they crash. And no there's no respect between them, there is only hate.

Taylor became a really interesting character as the show progressed and he/she/they has slowly sold her soul and morals to learn at the feet of Axe, but you get a sense that Taylor is a bit of a devil in disguise.

Really great year though.

Plus Chucks wife, hawt.

This is by far my favourite show going, with Homeland not far behind (followed my Lucifer and TWD)

I think season 2 was better than the 1st. I hope it keeps rolling.

Just finished the season last night. Interested to see how it goes.

I liked how both seasons ended with Axe and Rhoades having a "talk".

Don't spoil it, but I've got the first two episodes recorded.

I watched the first episode and seemed to still be moving in the right direction. Still need to watch the one from 2 nights ago.

Anyone else notice how every single episode (even going back to last season) goes back and forth between Axe and Chuck gaining the upper hand.

I'd have to go back and re-watch but it might be every single episode going back and forth.

I really like the dynamics between Taylor and Wags as they try to run the company without Axe. Seeing their very different management styles with Wendy in the middle is hilarious.

just asking for a friend, but is it wrong to envy chuck and his "therapy sessions" with wendy?
