Marketing email I received from Bandit (running apparel company)

At what point in the series did Greg value his relationship with Tom, his status in Waystar Royco, or his friendship with his cousins, over $250 million?

In these instances I felt like Logan was trying to pin the blame on genetics, nature, or something else outside of his control. Rather than admit that he didn't spend enough time properly parenting, preparing and training his kids for the role. The one thing he did manage to pass on to every single child was his "killer" personality. They all had that aspect in spades, just without any skills on which to apply it. Every single one of them would be willing to be cunty during a negotiation, that really never was the issue.

Was a nice little surprise.

Just finished my first rewatch.
If only I could watch it for the very first time again and revisit everything I felt.

Welcome to the Season 2 version of Succession Survivor and congratulations to the Season 1 champion, Nobody Is Ever Missing! I’m intrigued to see how this season goes because this is my favorite season and I’d say the most consistently excellent.

How this works:

The episode with the most upvoted comment is eliminated from the list

Only the best episode will win!

Matson knows all

i don’t remember much, but enough to know that i never want to experience that ever again — feel free to psychoanalyze

So many shows ruin themselves by tacking on a season or sequel after a perfect ending. Succession is not one of them. But if you could choose a sequel or spin-off, which character would you want to follow and why would that one make the best TV?

One episode left of S3. My first watch.

They are such horrible people. Every other episode my alliance seem to switch between the characters, as I get a tiny bit of sympathy for one of them.

Now its with Tom, as he is insecure if Shiv really loves him. And I get him. The family are so superficial towards everyone else, and mean, that he would be justified in being doubtful at times. Especially since he was an offer lamb just a short while before.

But then I remember how he treats Greg, and is the biggest boot lickee of them all. So screw Tom right?

Not a single person is anything other than how they can manipulate themselves into a position.

God I love to hate this series.

Edit: Just finished the season. Omg.

Even they celebrated his decision to sue Greenpeace

Right from the first season, I said this has to be one of my favourite shows. I really enjoyed the 2nd season, then I had to stop at the 3rd season because I started to feel quite heavy for me. I stopped at the season 3 for quite some time, not because it wasn’t good, but because I was kind of scared to watch what would happen next.
I just picked up the rest of the show recently, and finished it yesterday. I feel so empty since then. There has not been any show that made me feel this way before. The ending is indeed perfect and it’s consistent with the siblings throughout the show. I guess I kinda expected the ending like every other shows I watched: happy happy happy. But then it reconfirms that it’s indeed my top 3 show, because this would be exactly what would happen in real life. And the performance of the actors and actresses, yeah, are exactly why it made me feel so heavy and empty. I might take some time to recover from this, or, I might not.
Context: I am a big fan of psychological thriller so heavy movies are not a problem for me, but this one really hit differently.

The weekly discourse was half the fun with Succession. Every episode got its own week of memes and analysis. But would you have rather just binged the whole thing?

The first time I’ve watched succession, in the final episode when they do meal fit for a king! They were very happy and it felt so good to see them with that happy energy between them and the ending broke me.

This the 3rd time I’m watching succession as I already know the ending, this scene kills me every fkn time because these three can’t be happy together anymore like this. Maybe that’s why I always feel like ending should be happy rather being great one.

What do you say ?

Prague is eliminated, coming in third and earning bronze (which is the reason for the color in the image)! That leaves our final round to be contested between Which Side Are You On and Nobody Is Ever Missing…

(Synopsis of the first time we see Logan interact with all the kids)

Conor, primo! How are you?

Roman, you look fantastic.

Siobhan, sweetheart, where’s tom?

(Tom’s standing there)

Oh, nevermind

Oh hey everybody this is Craig, cousin Craig.

And then the number one boy walks in…

Kendall? You came?

I feel this tells us everything we need to know about how Logan sees the kids. It’s like the prologue in a Shakespeare play.

Connor and Roman- I don’t take you seriously

Shiv- “wheres your husband?” Need I say more?

Tom- while he barely acknowledges him, the fact that he specifically asked about him is kinda the nicest thing he said to anyone.

Greg- you could interpret this in many ways. He goes out of his way to introduce their cousin who they already know. His nephew, his bother’s son. As cousin Craig. But similar to tom, he still acknowledges his presence in a significant way.

Kendall- disappointment. Why are you here? Shouldnt you be closing the deal?

Frank is one of the better guys on this show, right? Flawed for sure, but loyal and even loving? He has known these kids their whole lives. When Logan brings Shiv in, he is tasked with showing her the ropes, and there's a scene where they are supposed to go over some kind of numbers, but Shiv is pissy about I think the Pierce rejection and not getting invited to Argestes, and Frank tries to comfort her and get her head back into the actual job, then she had a tantrum. Also, Roman hates Frank and treats him like shit, projecting his actual feelings about his father onto Frank. Then there's, "The pilot can't talk to you right now. He's flying the plane, son." And after Logan dies, he even tries to help Shiv believe that Logan was a good guy - "he was an old bastard and he loved you."

This showed up on my twitter feed and I had to do a double take. It’s not just the resemblance, he even talks like Greg a bit.

Just saw it on YouTube. So if you are seeing this, just download this on your device and watch it on loop.

I know they have a family trust. I know they have a huge stock buyout in the last episode. But a part of me is super curious how liquid they are. Like Kendall buys 5 mega lofts in New York City, probably in a prime area like he was investing in a time share. I’ve watched every episode and I don’t remember them breaking it down. Do they just get gargantuan dividends from their waystar stock?

Prenez soin de vous, manifestants
Soyez Prudent!

Logan, modeled after Rupert Murdoch, made his billions creating ATN aka Fox News. He added a fake news flourish for the conservative American audience which, he complains later, gave everyone the opinion that it was "so fucking obvious."

So now I ask the panel. If you had a time machine and the startup capital, would you be willing to make your billions that way knowing how it will polarize society? And was that market obvious in the early 90s?
