I felt the story was all over the place, and the editing only emphasized that. It felt chaotic at all times, and the story and the characters are shallow and lacking substance, and I think the producer knows that, so they try to spice it up with fast phasing so that the viewer doesn't get too bored.

I really wanted to like this. It's so original and full of ideas. Speed, energy, great acting, it's all there.

But I just can't connect. I hated these main characters so much, it was painful to watch. At times I had to force myself to watch.

Also, everything is so over the top, that I just stay outside. Exaggerated, but somehow not in a good way. The Mafia people, the Hermann brothers, the politician .... so crude, so unbelievable, such caricatures, that it's just not funny any more.

You know, Wolf of Wall street worked because we are WITH Leonardo DiCaprios characters from the beginning. He starts slow, he slides into it, he is kind and good hearted in the beginn, humble even, and corrupts slowly, by money, by fame, by power. That's what drags us into the film. We could be him, it could happen to us. The americans, rhey know how to do it.

None of that can be found in KOS. These types are crooks from the beginning, liars, arrogant and self-impressed, especially the CEO, you hate his guts from the start, what a pretentious solent prick. I cared for nobody. They could all have been shot or jailed, I couldn't care less.

Sorry guys but storytelling just doesn't work this way.

King of Stonks can often be too chaotic for its own good and I'm sure many people will give up on the show partway through because of that. The first episode has promise but episode 2 and 3 are far too scatterbrained to be anything other than a moderately entertaining but very disaffecting distraction. However, if you stick with it from episode 4 onward the show slows down a bit, takes a breath, fleshes out its character, and turns in to a smart, occasionally funny, and surprisingly suspenseful financial thriller that certainly left me wanting more. I hope the show gets picked up for the second season they clealry planned on making.

KOS is an entertaining series with full of actions. Felix, the COO, is the machine behind the success while Magnus is the face of the company. The writer crafted a perfect illustration of how stock value and shareholder pressure influences even short term decisions of the company. Financial terms, shorting, options, longs are explained clearly and to the point.

Being a stock exchange guy, I enjoyed the series as it is not far from realities. Needless to say, sometimes it is exaggerated but this is given.

Sheila played her role excellent, Felix is super likeable as well as Magnus perfect character for the job.

I had a great few hours watching the series. I recommend everyone as well.

There are many series that claim to satirise modern rich. Be it tech, real estate, media...... and most fail. This one delivers fine enough show.

It can be described "how to sell BS and have everybody claim it's their favourite perfume". Show tends to jump between interconnected plots, but that's what makes it good. It's never a dull moment and just when you think something will end because there is nothing more to say you get hit with a twist, a surprise or shocking revelation.

Yes, some plots are far fetched and out there and some things get resolved quickly because writers painted themselves in a corner but overall it's immensely watchable and fun.
