THis has been keeping me up at night!
It was an American TV show from the last, I dunno, 6 years I guess.

Was about a blonde chap (who looked like a young Alexander Skarsgard) in a cut-throat company, with an old, sinister boss.
I think he was trying to make his way up the ladder.

Things I remember about it (random scenes):
-he use to get his driver to pull up under an underpass, he would put latex gloves on, and pay a hobo to let him beat him up (to de-stress?)
-his wife was HOT, and was into BDSM. There were some scenes with that in. She was quite ‘mean’, and left him when he didn’t get promotions.
-The man who took his promotion was a slightly older black man, and he and his wife came over for a dinner party (at blonde man’s wife’s insistence) and then blonde man tried to seduce black man’s wife in his toilet…
-That chap found out, but belittled the blonde man saying something like “my watch is a Patel Philipe, and is worth more than your apartment”
-BLonde man murdered someone (can’t remember who) and the police came over to search the apartment. Evil wifey was heavily pregnant, and made her own waters break (i think the camera cut to a bloody skewer on the kitchen side?) so as to distract the police.
-in later episodes, the evil wifey was with a new man who was ‘fake cutting her’ with a knife in an ice bucket. He asked “how was that” after the sex, and she says something like “it takes away the fun when you ask that”…

I get this is a WEIRD request, but it’s been going through my mind for some unknown reason, and REALLY want to put the bloody train of thought to bed!!!!!

So STW.,… GO!!!

Some of that is absolutely Mr. Robot. I think you’re conflating two different shows. I’ve no idea what the other one is though.

Mr Robot? Are you sure? I've only seen season one and didn't bother after that as it wasn't that interesting, sounds like I need to check out season two...

Reckon you can get a Patel Philippe in the markets of Hong Kong for about a tenner, so that's a crap boast 😉

Same here! And only 2 eps of season 1. After the Bond garbage, not sure if I can take that much Rami Malek

I watched maybe four or five episodes of S1.

Right load of old bollocks.

Doesn't sound like it got much better either.

I know it's not, but

a blonde chap (who looked like a young Alexander Skarsgard)

my first thought here was Kris Marshall.
