Wall Street villains are having their big moment on both television and the big screen.
The 2008-2009 financial crisis and Great Recession is still fresh in people's minds raising concerns about income inequality.
This is being reflected in the battle to be the next U.S. president. Hillary Clinton defends herself from accusations she will be soft on Wall Street because of the money she has received from bankers and hedge fund managers.
The financial crisis has also spawned two television films about disgraced financier Bernard Madoff. One of those, starring Richard Dreyfuss, aired last week on ABC.
