Demis S @Showtime_99 Mar 12 HBO consistently producing absolute quality. The acting is very excellent and natural feeling. Storyline is amazing. This is why HBO consistently does well shows like this are just one example of how brilliant HBO is! They let there actors on set go off script often to get natural reactions, this was true also in the HBO renowned series The Sopranos. This season was amazing!

Logan continues to play his games with his children but never abandoning them or throwing them overboard but unable to decide on who should takeover. We also see more clearly the nasty side of Marcia, as her position is momentarily threatened. Amidst all the family intrigue, Waystar Royco faces a crisis that threatens to bring down the Logan Roy dynasty altogether. The Season ends with a dramatic and stunning climax and I am not sure if Logan's look at the end was of pride or anger ... See more Dominic B @RT83360345 May 20 Fantastic! Took me the entire first season to get in, but now I'm here, I just enjoy it. Cast and story are a blast. SOOO GOOD!! See more Paul S @RT91988760 04/04/2025 Once again, the show was incredibly enjoyable, and the story became so much more intriguing. I definitely recommend it for drama fans! See more Myles H @myleshungerford 03/10/2025 Succession masquerades as profound commentary on power and family by dressing up soap opera dynamics in expensive suits and literary references. The show invites viewers to feel intellectually superior while watching terrible people be terrible to each other—without offering any genuine insight beyond 'the ultra-wealthy are miserable too.' It's emotional pornography for the NPR crowd: the pleasure of watching privileged people suffer, packaged with enough prestige markers that audiences can pretend they're engaging with something meaningful rather than simply indulging in schadenfreude.

I don't need to mention that the acting is superb. however, you get to know all these characters and their characteristics already after the first three episodes, and the series has 39 of them. What happens in the other 36? if you ask me, nothing. the story revolves always around the same. greedy and narcissistic children are fighting for the position of director, i.e. the successor of their father. and they are doing that for 39 episodes. in each one and the same. nothing original, everything could be told in 10 episodes. one more thing disappointed me, and that is the structure of the episodes. namely, every but every episode is structured in such a way that all the characters are in the same place at the same time; at a funeral, at a party, at a wedding, on a boat... it's cool to see what trash people can be, but in my opinion there is no originality or uniqueness See more Read all reviews
