If you like Paul Giamatti and/or fetishist antiheroes, you’re in luck, because the melodramatic series Billions is returning to Showtime on Sunday, Feb. 19 at 10 p.m. EST. The Emmy- and Golden Globe-winning Giamatti is back, along with Golden Globe winner Damian Lewis, for the show’s second season, which focuses on the legal battles between a hedge-fund manager (Lewis) and a cunning U.S. Attorney (Giamatti) with a thing for BDSM.
Speaking of sex, the Joseph Gordon Levitt-directed Don Jon also makes its TV debut on the premium cable network on Feb. 4, and is part of Showtime’s “Love is Strange” collection that will also feature Love Actually, Sleeping with Other People and Shopgirl, among others.
February also marks the return of Homeland, which is somehow already in its sixth season. In this new batch of episodes, Carrie Mathison is back living in Brooklyn after she successfully defused a terrorist attack in Berlin. The new season features a presidential election, and takes place between Election Day and Inauguration Day.
