'Billions' closes one major account as it pivots toward another

"Billions" closed a major account in its fifth-season finale, as the show pivots to a new billionaire and star.

In a major twist, the character of Bobby "Axe" Axelrod (Damian Lewis) got axed -- or rather, outmaneuvered by New York Attorney General Chuck Rhoades (Paul Giamatti) and rival billionaire Michael Prince (Corey Stoll). Pulling another double cross, Prince bought out Axelrod's interests, which allowed him to flee the country while marking Lewis' exit from the show.
