This time I was satisfied with the episode, the story progressed nicely, the atmosphere was present, the intrigues were successful, and I realized once again that the series actually lacks typical positive heroes. And that's good, there have been enough boring Mireks Dušíns. I'm curious about the further development, Čikatilo has started an interesting game. (10/04/2018)

The seventh episode was of good quality as usual, it's interesting to watch when Bobby's financial plans don't work out unlike in the first season, there was decent intrigue, but again something was missing that would convince me to add the fifth piece. I watched the first season of the series in its original version, the second one came to me with Czech dubbing, so I had the opportunity to encounter this gem: "Are you home already? I've been waiting for you longer." I understand that it doesn't appeal to viewers from outside Silesia and Moravia, but here we expect someone to come later. Maybe I'm finicky, but I wouldn't want words like "rožni," "ganc," or "skura" to be used in the dubbing, even though I know them and I couldn't care less if others understand them. Czech language may be declining, but fortunately, children are already learning English in preschool, so it doesn't really matter... I apologize, but it needed to be said. (11/04/2018)

This was a clear matter with full fire. The episode had excellent pace and atmosphere, with strong intrigue in the financial and political field, and added to that were the timid attempts of the prosecuting office to build a new case against Axe Capital. There was definitely something to watch and I enjoyed it. (11/04/2018)

After a great episode, there was another slowdown, the plot didn't move much and the pace of the story noticeably decreased. It is true that with other series, I would definitely rate it lower, but here even with all the shortcomings, I'm not bored, so I can't give it less than four stars. (11/04/2018)

I came across a problem again, the tenth episode looked good to me, it was interesting, not boring, but a too large part of the plot this time was occupied by marital problems in the Axelrod family, which may not be a bad thing, as it gives the characters the necessary depth, but I missed a larger amount of intrigue and speculation. (11/04/2018)

If in the previous episode I complained about the lack of intrigues in the comments, this time the creators literally shut me up. I wouldn't believe that I would have such a great time watching Chuck's moves on the stock exchange, but it happened. The plot of the eleventh episode was full of twists (sometimes even vomit-inducing), the pace was great, the atmosphere was excellent, and I had a fantastic time. (11/04/2018)

And the final episode of the second season had some great twists and wrapped up what the previous episode started. The creators once again succeeded in creating the atmosphere, the plot was not lazy, it was overflowing with events, and Axelrod's transition to illegality really entertained me a lot, so there was no choice but to give it five stars. (11/04/2018)

This is the first season that's not getting a five-star rating from me. The series is still great, but most of the plot lacks that "something" that would make me add an extra star. The reconciliation between Bobby and Chuck didn’t do the series any favors. On the other hand, it’s true that I really enjoyed the moments with the two of them working together. This could be the way to go for a fourth season, and I definitely won't miss it. (12/07/2018)

The episode picks up right where the last season left off. Initially, I thought it would be a slow start to the new season, but it quickly got interesting with mutually beneficial deals (Chuck) and strategic planning (Bobby). Before I knew it, I was hooked and having a blast. (09/07/2018)

A pretty standard episode. Nothing exceptionally exciting happened, but I wasn’t bored either. Some moments were really entertaining, like Bobby's time at the firm, the deportation of a key witness, and Chuck pressuring the judge. (09/07/2018)

The intro to the third episode was perfect — the only thing missing was the line: "Irene, I love you even without money!" While the rest of the episode wasn’t mind-blowing, I enjoyed the decent amount of manipulation and intrigue. Plus, Clancy Brown as the new Attorney General is a blast. (09/07/2018)

The creators are being pretty sneaky so far. The episode seemed average at first, and just when I thought it might be the weakest of season three, I ended up having a great time. Chuck attending his dad's reunion was fantastic, and the reverse psychology at the foundation meeting was even better. (09/07/2018)

There wasn’t a huge standout moment, but the plot was consistently engaging. The creators even threw in a nearly horror-like scene — I really never wanted to see more of Taylor than absolutely necessary. (10/07/2018)

Finally, a five-star episode! The plot came to life, with the intrigue and manipulation in full swing. It seems like the threat to Wendy has given the series the fresh boost it needed. (10/07/2018)

A brutal alliance was formed out of necessity, instantly shifting the balance of power and changing Dr. Gilbert's life. Mr. Hall was called back from his exile, and Mafee was really entertaining. Plus, there were plenty of intrigues and manipulations, which I absolutely love. (10/07/2018)

The second half of season three is clearly hitting its stride. Another five-star episode, with the story maintaining a solid pace and keeping things interesting on all fronts — work, politics, and family. I’m eagerly looking forward to the next episode, and Wendy’s revenge was absolutely hilarious. (10/07/2018)

A pretty unremarkable episode. I wasn’t bored, but it’s the weakest episode of season three so far. The only standout was John Malkovich as Grigor Andolov — his accent was spot on. (12/07/2018)

Definitely more engaging than the previous episode, with a better pace and a more captivating plot. While Chuck is scheming against the Attorney General and Bobby is scrambling for capital, I feel the show was more compelling when they were plotting against each other. I get that the story needed to evolve, but the new challenges don’t seem as gripping. (12/07/2018)

I had a great time watching the bonus allocation scene. I could totally imagine losing my motivation at work because I got a $9 million bonus when I was hoping for $10 million. I’d love to experience such a devastating disappointment someday! I'm really curious to see how Taylor’s storyline develops. (12/07/2018)

As usual with this show, the season finale was top-notch. The events surrounding Taylor really kicked the plot into high gear, and the philosophical debates about the final solution were spot on. The chain of events started by Chuck Rhoades was also captivating, but I was annoyed the season ended just when I was having a great time. (12/07/2018)
