    I expected succession to be more of a comedy when I first started, and now I think of it in the same category as breaking bad where yes you might laugh every other episode or so but the amazing acting, direction and writing makes for a thrilling experience and emotionally intense scenes, overall 9/10 show imo

  • @jamesparker8066
    @jamesparker8066 Год назад +2

    5:34 I think Kendall making the point of saying they were not estranged was not delusion but a calculated maneuver. The point was to establish a narrative that they were still close, because it likens the odds that the Roy children will end up in power after the transition.

    What a great synopsis of a phenomenal episode - so entertaining and so inciteful. Towering performances all around but for me it was Kieran's Roman that took me out. The way he tied to understand, accept, cope all in real-time... was just so moving and believable. His flashes of anger, empathy, denial, etc. had me in tears. Such a thrilling concept - writing, acting, directing, editing, and that musical score.. wow!

      My mind keeps bouncing between three things the writers did: 1 that they killed Logan; 2 how they protrayed it; and 3 when they did it. It was all genius. And the director and actors and the entire crew totally fulfilled the Jesse Armstrong's brilliant vision.

    I can't keep thinking that, with Logan's death, the showrunners crafted a way to put us the viewers in the same place as the shareholders from Waystar: can both the show and the company survive without its alma mater? Could the kids be enough to keep them in the road?
    However, now is when the show really is gonna to start; now everyone, the kids, the board, everyone, are by their own and they will show their true colors...everyone is a Logan now

    A few thoughts - I think Connor is going to rise far further than we thought. His prominence is rising slowly and in many ways has become almost likeable.
    I think Logan’s security is going to use his leverage (he was looking distraught at the end of the episode.
    Greg was clearly unimpressed with Tom’s 10 Greg’s on the plane comment, but I think he will stay true to Tom if only because he’s gone far under Tom!s stewardship.

  • @andrewdorie4010
    @andrewdorie4010 Год назад +1

    I didn’t see his death coming, but I saw something big and possibly emotional coming. The kids are always flippant and half interested in most topics, but they kept popping from one idea to another in a way that made me think the selling the company to Matson while Greg and Tom take over narrative was ending. Logan didn’t seem especially invested in business stuff and actually sounded genuine saying he loved his kids. The story in which we were all invested coming into the season just didn’t feel alive or important the first couple episodes. It just seemed like we were going in a new direction. I appreciate this episode review a lot after watching so many reviewers not be able to get past their emotional responses to L dying this week. Nice to hear someone just talk about what happened and not gush about how L died so realistically.

    • @cinemoni
      @cinemoni  Год назад

      I appreciate it! And yeah Logan seemed very distant. I think it’s because finally all of his kids (except connor lol) were against him. So he felt lonely as we saw during his birthday.

    It's funny to me how it's so widely accepted that Logan was "a bad guy". I think it's a matter of perspective. He's a man who broke his own back to give his children a good life and got no gratitude in return. He was human , he was flawed , but he was well intentioned and did a lot of good for the world and for his children. I think that's why you and others cried for him, because in your heart you know somewhere behind the gritty facade there was indeed a huge heart and a unique and amazing human being.

    • @cinemoni
      @cinemoni  Год назад +2

      Every character in this show is arguably a bad person but at the same time they have qualities that make them likeable, they have actual human emotions and we understand they’re not bad just because they want to, but because they have been hurt one way or another, the way they were brought up, how they deal with conflicts, relationships, etc. it all gives their actions a purpose. I think it’s the same for Logan. And that’s why Succession is such an incredible show, the characters all have so much depth that they feel like actual humans instead of a stereotype.

    Predictions: Connor becomes VP because he’s “in the conversation” and ATN controls the conversation.
    Greg takes down the kids, Tom, and Geri…he was the 3rd character introduced to the audience for a reason. He will side with his grandpa Ewan because “nobody wants to be $5 million rich” (according to Tom).
    Connor’s Wedding made me feel emotionally drained on a visceral level.

      @cinemoni  Год назад +1

      While yes I think that’s true I also think that deep down he could never completely shut away his dad. Jeremy Strong said in an interview that Kendall basically sees Logan as the sun- he’s warmed by it but if he gets too close he might get burned. So I think deep down he never wanted to actually be estranged from him
