Quotes:

Alison Jeffers: There're two kinds of men on Wall Street: standard and poor.

If you know a little about the market this is the show for you.

Bull stands for a lot of things in our world. One of the uses applies to Wall Street. A Bull market is an aggressive up market, one we have recently experienced.

In this show, Bull stands for more than that. I believe it stands for the way many people carry themselves in the business world, as in full of....

The pace and the dialog are so fast and at so high a level of business-speak that those only half-listening or not familiar with the market might have some trouble keeping up and/or understanding all that is going on; especially the references to insider knowledge and trading.

For those who keep up they will be rewarded with a well written, intelligent, and entertaining show. The cast is very good, especially Donald Moffat and Stanley Tucci. The younger part of the ensemble will get better as they "get" their characters filled out.

I am looking forward to the upcoming episodes and strongly recommend it.
