succession didn't really start getting popular with the masses til season 3.

season 1 was pretty slow and it hit it's stride in season 2. season 3 is when EVERYONE was watching it.

but succession was getting critically acclaimed from the jump and they never cancelled that shyt.
Season 2 premiere of Winning Time was 30% lower than the season 1 premiere. Season 2 opened to 629k viewers.

Succession season 2 jumped 32% over the series premiere. Season 2 premiere had 1.2M viewers.

Succession season 2 premiere didnt launch with an almost nonexistent marketing budget and during the height of a writers/actors strike

Weak...S2 was pretty dope.

Isn't S3 rumored to be the end of Euphoria too? And Last of Us going to take years in-between seasons. They need some new bangers ASAP, b/c it's all eggs in the White Lotus/Last of Us/Euphoria basket rn....

and lord knows when house of dragons is coming back.

That’s so short sighted. The backlash was turning though. The show clearly made an effort to not paint the main characters quite as badly as they did in the first season. Jerry West was toned down significantly. Magic the sex fiend was turned all the way down to 0 damn near.
Yeah we instead got 45 scenes of him and cookie on the phone :francis:

The Bad Boys Pistons would have been so hilarious on this show. That episode of Bird going for long walks in Indiana trying to come to terms with the fact that his window’s closed would have been amazing :wow:

This made me mad all over again. Watching Jordan getting little bro'd while going absolutely crazy would have been fun to see. Even if they made up some shyt it would have been entertaining
