King of Stonks

It's corny and the memes are dorky and old fashioned. It's over the top and all over the place. A lot of kitsch. But I liked it. It's fast and funny. You're never bored. I can't help but compare it to a dark/funny Norvegian equivalent called "Exit" which is a stellar series about 4 wreckless egomaniac yuppies, really great plot and great actors. Kings of stonk does not have this, but in some strange way I just enjoy it a lot. It has a certian warmth that I like and it's unpretentious and fast.

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.

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.

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.

Based losely on the story of the biggest german financial Scandal of the Fintech Wirecard (Just google Wirecard.... ) mixed with Wolf of Walstreet elements. Painfully grotesk and extremely entertaining if you know the Back story.
