this is definitely better than mad men, but i will say the character development in Mad Men is somehow underrated...it was pretty amazing

and I'll be honest

Succession does not have a moment as legendary as "NOT GREAT BOB :francis:" Pete Campbell would fit RIGHT into this show...he's probably a better Tom than Tom.
mad men didn't have a pay off...it was just consistent but didn't go anywhere

I would agree with some of this, however just the NIGHT and DAY difference between this and Billions (I've seen ppl compare them) doesn't that show it is hard to do? Billions had the chance to watch white collar TV as well, and fell flat
We’re debating elite television though. Billions was never on this level. It was always enjoyable but this show and shows like Mad Men are playing a completely different sport.

It's not shytty, is my point. It's a direct necessary thing to do because Kendall has been shytty in the first place, and so has his father for that matter..

It's corny to act like Rava's being shytty. The man whose funeral she's supposed to be attending had her son poison-testing his drink. Who out here would feel like they're being shytty if they held their kid back from going to that funeral? If the roles were reversed and Kendall did that to Rava because Rava's dad was being terrible to Iverson, everyone in here would be unanimous about how he's right and it isn't shytty because he's just protecting his kid.
We just gonna disagree dog. nikka was hurt. Cause what she did was hurtful. You keep justifying it and that means she’s not an evil bytch who did it on purpose. But what she did was hurtful.

MAN… probably this cause it’s more concise a story. But if Mad Men would have been 4 seasons and out it’d be a harder debate. Before this show, Mad Men was my personal second favorite show of all time behind the wire. I can understand people ranking Sopranos higher but i get annoyed when people argue Breaking Bad was better. Like, REALLY annoyed.

You can argue, being a period piece on AMC, that Mad Men had a bigger degree of difficulty than Succession. Both have elite performances. I think succession might have the nod there. Mad Men was carried by Don and Peggy performance wise.

Now I’m imagining what Mad Men would have been like on HBO and :ohlawd: the amount of bytches we woulda really got to see Don run through…
I love Succession but Breaking Bad’s final season has EASILY been better than Succession’s

Aside from episode 3 there’s no classic/shocking/breathtaking episodes like BB had it’s last season.

The finale is gonna have to step it up big time if this show is going to end as one of the GOATs
