Which Side Are You On?

Greetings from Lithuania.

Sixth episode of "Succession" named "Which Side Are You On?" was its best yet because of electrifying ending. I won't spoil it nor go into details, but the plan went sideways and I will say no more. Writing, tension, acting were superb. And while the plot is kinda going a bit in circles, I like previously mentioned qualities and they elevate this show above its premise. It is a drama but a very interesting one.

Overall, fifth episode was solid and well paced but it's the sixth one which is a highlight of this season so far. Things will change and I will keep following it.

This is such a harsh episode. Kendall is so driven to get rid of his father as head honcho, that he engages in a a coup, to drive him from power. Much of the episode is about his efforts to gain enough votes. But he makes an error when his actions keep him from the beginning of the meeting. He also realizes that he has no loyalty from several of those who promised to support him. This leads to corporate bloodletting and the firing of several significant people. The most despicable of all is Roman who pretends to hold forth agains the family, but when the chips are down turns Benedict Arnold. The last fifteen minutes are stellar television.

The entire episode is simply magnificent to be sure, it's just that there is a climactic moment supplemented by a superbly composed piece of music that reverberates beyond the screen and through the viewer it is so good. I have remembered this moment ever since and will likely not soon forget it. Stunning work from Jeremy Strong, Brian Cox, and the screenwriters. A masterclass in all things made for the silver screen and what solidified Succession as one of my favorite and consistently excellent shows out.

The Last 17 minutes of this episode are pure masterpiece. Blocking, writing, acting and the Durection are kn point. Now I do get why this show has got so many praise. The production design is so apt and accuarte. The background music which the opening credit sequence have, is so masterfully used when Kendall is inside the lift his father's house. I wonder what will happen in the following episodes, but from this episode it would have set the tone for the viewers. The complexity of the character of Kendall is captured very well.throiught the series so far. One of the best Episode in the History of the Television.

A Gem.

Great episode. Perfect mix of comedy but real tension and stakes. Not sure why this show isn't more popular. I know the reviews are bad, but that's surprising too.
