Succession

I actually enjoyed Succession but it's definitely a show that's not for everyone. The majority of the people I know end up loving up but there are those who don't like it too. You'll have to judge for yourself. What can you say about it that hasn't already been said? First off this show has won the Emmy for Best Drama every season it's been on and literally every major character has been nominated or won an Emmy for their work on this show. It's also one of the highest rated shows here so it's not only a hit with the critics but the fans love it too. Bottom line is this is one of the best shows ever created. It's one of the rare shows where every season is just as good as the others. There's no let down or weak season. This show is not for everyone though. If you are looking for action and a fast paced show then this isn't for you. What makes this series so special is the writing and acting. It will suck you into their world and won't let go. I can't recommend this show enough but again not everyone has is going to like it.

This show, right from the first scene all the way to the last, was amazing. I am so sad it has ended. Not one performance was bad. The casting could not have been more spot on. Everyone was very believable in their characters.

The script was fantastastic. I did feel that some episodes fell back a little. They felt a bit like filler episodes where not much happened. This was only a few episodes in the second season. But overall, I found that the majority of episodes as a whole, had purpose and wasn't lacking at all. I really wish it didn't have to end. The only comparable show I would say is The Newsroom, which I found slightly better, more so to do with the pacing and writing. But this is definitely in the same field.

Succession isn't just a TV show-it's a cultural phenomenon and a masterclass in storytelling. With its razor-sharp writing, impeccable acting, and gripping narrative, it's no wonder this series has become one of the most talked-about shows of the past decade.

At its core, Succession is a Shakespearean family drama wrapped in the ruthless world of corporate power. The Roy family's power struggles are equal parts tragic and absurd, and the show walks this tightrope with perfect balance. The dialogue is biting and darkly funny, delivering laugh-out-loud moments in one scene and gut-wrenching emotional punches in the next.

The performances are nothing short of brilliant. Brian Cox as the towering patriarch Logan Roy commands every scene he's in, while Jeremy Strong as Kendall gives a career-defining portrayal of a man torn apart by ambition, insecurity, and his father's shadow. Sarah Snook, Kieran Culkin, and Matthew Macfadyen are equally outstanding, adding layers of complexity and humanity (or lack thereof) to their deeply flawed characters.

The writing is what truly elevates Succession to greatness. Each episode is packed with tension, twists, and memorable lines, and the show's exploration of power, loyalty, and legacy feels as universal as it is specific. Whether it's a boardroom showdown, a media scandal, or a dysfunctional family gathering, every scene feels meticulously crafted and utterly captivating.

Visually, the series is stunning. The luxurious settings-private jets, opulent apartments, and sprawling estates-serve as a stark backdrop to the ugliness of the characters' behavior. The direction and cinematography pull you into this world, making you feel like a fly on the wall for every backstab and betrayal.

Perhaps the most remarkable thing about Succession is its ability to make you care deeply about such morally bankrupt characters. You find yourself rooting for them, hating them, and even pitying them all at once. It's a testament to the show's nuanced storytelling that these characters feel so human despite their monstrous flaws.

Succession is not just one of the best shows of its time-it's a timeless exploration of family, greed, and the cost of power. It's funny, devastating, and utterly addictive from start to finish.

10/10. A masterpiece.

After finishing the series all I can say it's one of the best shows ever , all the characters somehow plays an important role ( they all psychics ) , you can see what is dark humor in addition the pure drama , the legacy and pride showed so well.

Logan roy is the real American business father who can mange all his children

Ken roy ? Wow what a character the one u will never know what is he doing

Chevon and roman are just the two noisy brother and sister but they are amazing Tom is the definition of the devil u wanna know what he wants but u will never know how Thanks to all the cast members...

I watched 1 episode; thought it was just okay and then didn't watch the next episode until maybe 2-4 weeks later. Then once I was on episode 3-5, I was absolutely hooked. Give this series a chance.

The show is great, you start to really care about the characters despite most of them having massive character flaws. In my opinion, 3/4 of the children are outright sociopaths (oldest son is the only halfway decent guy). Father is ruthless but you can't help but respect him for his accomplishments.

It gives an insight on how some of the 0.001% live. Very interesting and it will keep you entertained throughout the series!
