Official Succession Thread 🟠 Season 4 Currently Airing

[WMG the 2nd]

man’s can barely contain his joy

He’s definitely conflicted
Thing is he’s been conflicted the entire run. We don’t even know if he loves shiv anymore cause when she finally gave in he told her point blank idk

If anything that baby is what’s giving them any chance of anything cause imagine if she wasn’t pregnant. Would shiv have voted no and let Tom take over IF she wasn’t pregnant? Would he even want her in the car if she wasnt? People wanna make it all black and white win or lose but the undertone I feel like is none of these forever rich nikkas are actually happy and need to work on themselves

Him living with it is a better ending even though they teased him offing himself with the elevator

wait…what elevator…what moment was this?

wait…what elevator…what moment was this?

Right after Roman told them they were bullshyt and shiv made her vote, Ken walked into the conference room after for one last plea and they told him it was done. After that it’s a long no cut shot of him looking ready to off himself as he press the elevator button. Pretty sure it was to make it seem like he would go up the elevator instead of down. Maybe reading into it

Give it to me straight brehs

Is the show good or is it hype

Give it to me straight brehs

Is the show good or is it hype

It’s some of the best acting I’ve seen on television in years top to bottom

Also the most crowded group of pieces of shyt in a single story

 

[Digital Omen]

Top 5 DOA

The Sopranos
The Wire
Breaking Bad
The Americans
Succession

I didn't exactly know that Tom was going to come out on top, but I did know that no way in hell were any of the 3 stooges going to get the crown.
Mattson gonna do to Waystar what Ken did to Vaulter

 

[Sterling Archer]

shytting on Tom until the day he dies

The nerve of him to call Tom a yes man as if he wasnt clearly one as well. Who was the first nikka to have his soul snatched in Boar on the Floor? Tom and even Greg protested more than Karl did. Only for him to see Tom win and think "One last rodeo." instead of "golden parachute" when Frank asked him what they should do.

The only people who ive heard say they couldnt get into were people who said they "had a hard time following". Make of that what you will. Everyone else has said its a great show with even greater performances.

Basically- Dunces can’t follow the show.

I was being nice, but yes. I usually ask how much reality tv do they watch and do they like Steve Harvey.
My sister doesnt watch it but not for lack of ability to follow. She says its too intense so she doesnt enjoy. Makes her anxious over someone elses drama.
My mama doesnt watch it because she said "they are too mean. why is everyone so mean all the time"

 

[Bless't]

There’s a lot to unpack but I know someone is gonna dig deep into all the metaphors in this story

Like Shiv perfectly represents these white fake feminists who act like they’re so about progression but will do anything to keep their cac husband in power… and thereby keeping the Caucasian patriarchy in place.

That was the first thing I thought with the last scene in the car.

"You were in on the heist, you just dont like your cut"

 

[OJ Simpsom]

You're thinking about this shyt like a child, all I can say

Agree to disagree

 

[OJ Simpsom]

He’s gotta be trolling. nikka politely asked her if she was gonna meet him in the car and now he’s Michael Corleone and shyt…

What does that have to do with him being "sad" in the last scene. Ya'll pulling for strings to prove the dumbest point. Tom is the successor, but he's sad...Okay. Sure

No, you are right, Strong mentioned that in one of the pieces I read, Hollywood Reporter, the TImes, or Vanity Fair, can't remember lol

but it was intentional, they even thought it was too on the nose for him to hit the "going down" button.

The thing for me, about whether it's a good show, a lot of people who I probably don't think are very smart enjoy the show, but yes, there is a certain intelligence factor, and the ability to concentrate, and focus, which most people don't do with even TV anymore. It's background, it's for the memes, and posts.

There are so many references and quick jokes, it's a watch that demands you attention, and it does get intense, but I mostly watch as a comedy. It's as funny as anything I have seen on TV, ever.

if you are watching Succession for the plot developments, to me, you are missing about 85% of what makes the show so brilliant.
