- Host Kara Swisher unpacks the Succession series finale, “With Open Eyes,” in a two-part supersized podcast.. In part one, Kara talks with Alexander Skarsgård about why his tech billionaire character, Lukas Matsson, just can’t let Waystar Royco go. Then Kara goes deep with Jeremy Strong to discuss the tragic end of Kendall and what his character really wanted all along. Part two, coming later this week, features an extended conversation with director and executive producer Mark Mylod.

Connor got the medals
What medals?
😄 Good one
Mencken might lose lol, he also might lose as well
@@JoaoVictor-yq8ym logan's medals
lol the medals Logan bought and didn't earn
I know a lot of people say Jeremy is pretentious but honestly the earnestness he approaches the character with is incredible. Hearing his thoughts on Kendalls ending though only makes it even more tragic, if he is not drowning literally he certainly is figuratively.
Hes more honest and self aware than most people. Of course they wouldnt understand
I find him really endearing, like yeah he's an actor but that's also how theatre actors often are. Maybe it's overly serious but he seems cool and interesting
@@ManOnCouch Yeah. A few Method guys are always welcome. I do like how he doesn't even try to distance himself from the Kendall character at some points in this interview, using "I" and "me" to describe KLR's thoughts and actions.
@@aquamarine99911 I used to think it was just a funny, Jeremy Strong being Jeremy Strong thing, but I've noticed a few cast members do it too. Even Brian 'I hate method acting' Cox 😂
who says that?? im ready to fight
I can’t believe Succession has finally come to an end. I will miss quality tv
❤😢
Me too, but HBO has a problem writing endings of shows....all of them from Game of Thrones to Trueblood to Succession. Horrible ending just now. Why even do the annointing scene because it lost ALL its power by doing that ending. If ya going to devastate Kendal character why not have him jumping off the roof of the building during the signing and then see the look on Roman and Shiv face when they realize they killed their brother.
@@vaskylark that ending was great to me, don’t mistake your opinions as facts.
@@vaskylarkthat ending was genius
@@vaskylark That would have been the shittiest ending in the universe.
I've heard Jeremy cite that Jung quote before, "in the absence of love, power fills the vacuum". Sums up the entire series.
Jeremy Strong is truly an amazing actor
He is a gifted actor, yet 2024 Awards Season must go to KIERAN CULKIN as he responded best to the writing of the character of Roman Roy, in contrast to JEREMY STRONG retreading the boards as KENDALL ROY.
@@anonamouse.p4115 nopeeee, it’s still Jeremy yooo, he’s hard to beat, Jeremy is just impeccable
@@ramarwint3919 Agreed. Kieran Culkin is excellent but Jeremy has consistently been the standout performer. The only other actor who has rivaled him on the show would be Matthew MacFadyen who somehow simultaneously gave the most entertaining, ridiculous performance AND the most subtle one.
I think it's fair to say they all are well in for a shout. What an incredible season to watch, the performances were outstanding. Sarah Snook for the MVP, amazing
@@mysharona9097For my money MM’s is the better performance- he makes the role extraordinarily nuanced and complex and plays totally against his own personality; while JS is in reality not that far from Kendall Roy imho: has a considerable ego, takes himself very seriously, and doesn’t have an obvious sense of humour. (Where he is different is that he - JS - is conspicuously intelligent and well-educated.)
Jeremy Strong won the Emmy with that finale performance. One of the most complex, horrifying moments of acting I’ve ever seen. Bravo Mr. Stong. RIp KLR.
The Sopranos, The Wire, Mad Men, Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, and now Succession joins the pantheon of the best TV series. Bravo!
Hbo and amc
Switch out Mad Men for _Patriot_ and you're onto something....
Don’t forget Ozark dats another genius show thanks to Jason Bateman
@@uglybetty8747 Ozark is superior to Succession
lol it's not even close to succession ,Ozark is a great show whereas as succession is one of the greatest of all time
Jesse Armstrong and Mark Mylod are just masters at their craft. We're so lucky to have been here for this incredible moment.
I hope they come up with another series ❤
I could hear Jeremy for hours. He's so elocuent and chill
HBO, huge thank you for this masterpiece.
Thank you for creators, directors, writers, operators, disigners, all filming crew.
Thank you actors, all of you deserves Emmy.
Thank you Nicholas Britell for iconic soundtrack.
Thank you all, who watched and discussed it!
Succession - monument of great show of this century.
This was beyond excellent. Astonishingly deep perspective from Jeremy. The guy bled out for us for four seasons. We owe him so much as an audience. Thank you.
Yeah I know he won’t get the Emmy for best actor this time, but he surely deserves it
@@connorclarke1218keiran or Bob. The main reason he couldn't get an emmy for this season:-
1. Since this is last season they want to award keiran because jeremy had already won his first emmy
2. Lot of emmy voters doesn't like method actors publicity.
3. Keiran's culkin campaign for emmy is broader than jeremy
4. I don't like Jeremy's emmy winning speeches because he never gave credit to whole cast or ensemble. He considered himself as a shown runner of succession
@@Upsallauniversity123 Jeremy slightly edges Kieran to me. Bob doesn’t take it for me respectively. Season 3-5 was his chance, he was off in S6 IMO. Jeremy of course wasn’t on in season 4 either, at least not season 2-3 on. The early episodes Jeremy was actually looking bad and unconvincing, particularly the first episode of the season. His character came alive after election night and he was the 2nd best actor on the screen from episodes 8-10. Of course Sarah Snook is my personal choice for best actor of the season. She also had a rough start to the year, not nailing her accent well enough. (She’s Australian and she seemed rusty in the first few scenes of Ep 1)
@@connorclarke1218 i also hate that jesse doesn't gave matthew enough screen time this season and just uses tom for the last minute awful twist
@@Upsallauniversity123 Matthew deserves the best actor consideration. He was impeccable this season and last. So deep
Man I could listen to Jeremy Strong speak for a decade or more and I’d never get tired of it.
I was laughing so hard when they where messing up Caroline's food and mocking her accent
the cheese licking --LOL
Me too... even I think the happy finale could be a thing during that scene... this is me now 🤡
It's always great when. Kendall, Roman, and Shiv are all together playing nice.
Roman did her voice so good too 😂😂
@@DeeDeeFatmLoverWanab I know his wife’s English and they were living here so he’s had some practise…
i think this is the most perfect piece of television ever made. i'll miss the absolute disfunction of the family :((
to think I pretty much gave up on it the first season. It was only after the considerable twitter buzz that I gave it another shot.
@@anons000 I've watched them both. Succession has less missteps than those other 2 and seemed to get out at a perfect time although the other 2 probably had higher highs.
Season 1 of True Detective and Dark
@@DeweyDeway22 Never seen Dark but True Detective definitely
Better Call Saul
“I wouldn’t know how not to drink it (38:50)” is incredibly insightful…. What a phenomenal performer.
One of the greatest episodes of all time. Gonna miss this series so much 😭😭
literally blew my mind
@@bradenlee2945 will not be over it for at least a week
A very cheap feeling ending to an otherwise great show.
@@HUTCHSUCKSMUCH well the new wars are won and lost in board rooms. what can you do.
jeremy strong's self expression is so good his vocabulary is rich, he can tell what he is thinking or feeling so well just like his acting
I feel like this is the memorial board for Succession. So here I am to say thank you to the writers and directors. Phenomenal storytelling. Inspiring quality. And a tragic but satisfying end - especially with the closing commentary/behind the scenes. Kendall is still my number one boy
Jeremy is so intense. I can tell he still lives Kendall’s pain.
“I’m okay. It’s just a character” via the latest interview with Vanity Fair. He’s moved on
Briliant shows like this don't come around very often. BRAVO TO EVERYONE INVOLVED. This was a serious piece of modern drama. Likely will be loved and deconstructed for generations to come.
With all of Kendall's shortcomings, I truly hoped throughout the series he would succeed, he was most worthy. The death of the waiter was a tragic accident, for Shiv to take him out in the end was heartbreaking to watch. Jeremy Strong brought it all the way.
The character of Siobhan sure didn't.
He maimed his own brother to coerce a vote, and was fully prepared to physically attack his pregnant sister. "I'm the eldest boy!" was Ken going mask-off. He vehemently lied to his siblings about the waiter's death with his "I didn't even get into the car" bs. Ken got what he deserved. I rooted for him, but I now have no sympathy for him at all.
@@antheacao2316 I feel people are completely missing that! Kendall showed in this episode that he isn't a good person, it's baffling how many people believe he's the true "good" person in the show when he's actually never shown much of being "good" at all. Not to mention, had he won he would've been a complete tyrant. We know this about Kendall, power gets to his head and within a few years he would've been way worse than even Logan was.
@@razzprince2877 we don’t think he’s a good person I think we just believe he deserves out of all the options possible to be CEO. No one who got the job was a good person either. They’re not supposed to be good
@@antheacao2316 logan was worse than ken.
here's the thing, money and power dont see how bad of a person you are.
you don't need to be a good person to be a successful CEO.
Great writing! Great actors! Jeremy Strong deserves another Golden Globe for this season.
Tom was actually closer to a man Logan could respect, a man who has fought his way up the ranks, not born into wealth.
Mattson, Tom, Logan are all builders and self-made, and came into their own in different ways. Mattson the serious clown, Tom the lapdog cuck, Logan the killer
@@HungHoang-ss5cb Great observation.
@@HungHoang-ss5cb to be fair, Mattson wasn't really self made. Mattson just practically fell into riches, he wasn't actually a tech genius, just was given the stuff that made him rich.
@@mizerttmizertt9438exactly
Tom got positions at the company because he was with Shiv. Last time I checked, that isn’t what “self-made” meant.
Never felt so devastated for a character after a finale. Jeremy strong brought that emotion out of that character and out of audience.
Will miss this incredible series.
We can take a sigh of relief; this masterclass of a show stuck the landing.
None of the main characters got resolution so I wouldn’t say that’s sticking the landing
thats the point lol @@aitothechamp7263
Why nobody talks about this genius music….. honestly that’s what makes this so intensely emotional!
The way it kicked in when Greg slapped Tom back was amazing.
I'm so hopeful of Jeremy Strong to have an amazingly exciting acting career ahead, what an incredible talent discovered by the Succession.
Started crying when they watched their Dad on video at his home and didn't stop. God what a show. Masterpiece.
Jeremy Strong is such a talented actor and such a smart guy. A real pleasure to listen to him.
Underrated scene: Alex Skarsgard thrashing through the room, “let’s go let’s go let’s go!”
Zombies activate! 😂 So good!
@@user-bh2fz5sf5e EBBBBA!!!
The finale is a grower. Loved it at the time, but the more I think and hear about it, I now consider it truly a modern masterpiece of Shakespearean quality.
It sure was an ending to think of a lot. I have to see it again. And again. There's so much in it.
These adult children had two parents who didn't love them, and are incapable of loving anyone. It was a tragic ending.
Roman is immature and maybe he will heal and grow. Shiv is vindictive and nowhere as smart as she thought.
Kendall was smart and the only possible one who could have taken the top spot. I felt for sure he would after he took control at Logan's funeral.
So Ken is dead inside. But hey, they are all rich, they don't need to work anyway.
R.I.P to one of the greatest shows ever. Glad to be alive in the same timeline where Succession exists
Strong reading out the poem genuinely made me tear up. Unbelievable actor and I'll probably watch anything he's in now.
It is a tragic show and incredibly dark take on modern life, but man he is very comedically talented in the show. He absolutely should be in a comedy
Jeremy Strong's take on Kendall is an absolute pleasure to hear.There is so much thought and depth. I'm going to miss the show, but I'm also going to miss the podcasts! Thank you, Jesse Armstrong and team, it was so remarkable. The last episode was electric.
I don't know what it is about Jeremy Strong but I have this love and appreciation for him! I just get so happy haha. He hits different as an actor- he takes it seriously and goes all the way there. Just so endearing, passionate, serious- I love it. Ugh this was the perfect role, not just for him, but for all the cast. I really hope we get to see every single one of them in more shows, SOOOON.
Same
definitely!
Let’s give it up one last time for Jeremy strong’s look of despair
the moment where Tom marks Greg with a sticker is probably the most romantic moment I can remember in the series. It was so, so sweet.
that was genius
I had a huge smile while watching that moment
That was a great moment. This show was all about the details. I remember seeing Karl and Frank putting on their compression stockings for the long Sweden flight. I thought it was all in the details........brilliant.
Do you find marking a human being as your property romantic lmao
@@beafraid5467 it’s not not romantic 🥰
Just watched the ending and i'm stil in absolute awe
No way they just ended an absolute masterclass of a series like this
Truly a Meal fit for a king
Also let’s just acknowledge the brilliant soundtrack/score for this series. Beautiful and unique
Would you rather be rich AND a CEO, or just rich?
The kids will be alright. Connor Roy 2028.
He used to be the guy at the top of the tall building. Now he just looks up
@@gezenews tom has a job, kendall doesn't.
You can tell how invested Jeremy is in his character... Sometimes he refer to him as Kendall, but most of the time when he was talking about him, he said "I", like he IS Kendall. And, in a way, he is😍
Just finished it... God! What a show!
If you think about it, it was the best thing that could have happened to Kendall.
Now, if he really does have the skills, he can forge his own destiny.
Boys gonna end it
Being a drug addict kind of gets in the way of forging your own destiny.
I'm rooting for him, but I can't really say with confidence that his future looks bright.
except he doesn't hahaha
Kendall was never going to make it. Logan was able to build WayStar from the dirt, to the point where the company almost controlled the United States. He built it. Meanwhile, Kendall simply inherited his wealth, and didn't develop the skills necessary to become a kingpin. You know what they say: Hard times create strong men, and Easy times create weak men
@@disierra-amado5596 well than this just saves him from future humiliation.
Thank you HBO and Jeremy Strong for such an amazing show and performance. This was excellent writing, acting, directing. You all deserve all the Emmys coming your way.
I love how he blurs the lines between himself and Kendall even in this podcast. There are numerous instances where he speaks AS Kendall and I find it so beautiful. Here is a man who is proud of his work in the best possible way. Love you Jeremy, love you, the entire cast of Succession ❤
I could listen to Jeremy Strong talk about Kendall for hours.
Loved it all. Loved how the siblings played in the kitchen and when they watched the family video.
I didn't see the twist coming. At times I feared for the safety of one or another but overall enjoyed it so much.
Great show. Beautifully written, acted, directed, shot, edited, and has a great score. Always loved the way water was filmed and the way the cars drove so close fast. Almost military in its presentation. Or an SUV commercial.
Loved it, loved it, loved it! Big thanks to anyone who was involved in it!
What a great actor Jeremy Strong is.
What a tragedy, such a tragedy - so many feelings but ultimately wow.
Saw someone call Mattson’s crew the Ikea Mafia and I can’t 🤣
I admire the dedication of Jeremy Strong fully committing to the character like he does - his performance made the show, for me
Ken denying the death he was involved with to try and save his position as a last ditch effort when it was clearly over was just MARVELOUS WRITING... At the end of season 2, Logan tells Ken "You Have To Be A Killer". I mean if that is just not exceptional irony playing out... Kendall was bedeviled in that Boardroom from the moment we met him. He might very well be the most tragic character HBO has given us since DeQuan aka "Dookie" from "The Wire"...
It's wild how Alexander skarsgard is actually like Lukas . I thought about Lukas all the while as he talked
The ending was brutal, man.
jeremy takes his job seriously, not that others dont he just takes it to another level. -- take a bow sir.
I love that Kara continues to remind us she's met very powerful people. It never gets old.
It’s all about Kara 😉
Every 5 or 10 minutes! It’s not about you Kara 🙄
All while trying to make Elon look bad because she’s jilted. She and that fake MBA from NYU are perfect for each other. Poseur.
Kendall’s is the dark side in all of us; all of us with abusive parents, poisoned
Connor makes it out, Rome is scarred for life but with some hope, Kendall will probably commit suicide (poor Ken) and Shiv just became who she hated the most, her mom, the woman who has no power but married the king. Guess Tom was really Albany from King Lear, he's the one that gets to pick up whatever is left from England!
Yeah it was "perfectly painful" f that s
Rome was kinda gross in this episode. The comments about the kids were awful. And he deserved what Ken did to him.
Billionaires don’t commit suicide.
He’ll go on bender, pick himself up, and think of something.
Well said. Incredibly bittersweet. But somewhat, inevitable. We were fooling ourselves to think it would go any other way, like the kids did.
Not too sure about having no power, she was the deciding vote that gave Tom his seat.
This was the only way to end the show. Perfection
What a show!! I was scared kendal would jump into the water at the end lol
He probably will
Logan's bodyguard will never let that happen.
He is gonna do coke again
They are jealous of Kendall because he was the father’s favorite. He just was and he was the only one who was ever actually chosen by the dad at some point in time. They just can’t take it
Especially solidified by the fact that Logan wrote down in his will that Ken was going to be the successor. It was Logan’s intention (whether that changed later on is irrelevant). It was always Kendall’s. So close and yet so far 😭💔
I just caught this show last month and got hooked. Never expected to love it. The last season has been a great pleasure to watch and think about. I hope to see more from the creators and cast.
It brought tears to my eyes when he said the kitchen scene with the siblings was the very last scene they shot 🥺
Will Kendall survive? When he walked away from the water I understood that he will survive.
No. He’ll only survive if big boy is following him everywhere. If that man blinks Kenny boi will most likely be gone.
@@zedohe172 I wondered if he'd just let him drown ..
Kendall doesn't have the stomach to commit suicide. That was the point of Rome's nugget of truth. The three of them were cosplaying business people. Tom survived because he's the real deal and understands the nature of his position. Same with Karl, Gerri, and Frank.
@@naheemquattlebaum2267Noone should have the stomach for that dude😂
He won’t. Jeremy himself said that his life is over now. There’s nothing for him to live for.
Great to hear Jeremy Strong talk about John Berryman's poem.
It was the perfect ending. The whole episode gave goosebumps. It was SO GOOD.
One of the greatest Series finales to one of the greatest shows of all time
sopranos part 2
@@dougschmitt4258 it was never going to be any of them… the first 3 seasons showed us. Season 1- Kendall Season 2 - Shiv Season 3- Roman … they all crashed and burned
The best ending to a show. So sad it’s gone. But I have hope that Ken will be OK after a bit of a break from everything.
it really hurted, so close, I think Kendall commits not alive
I honestly its not a happy ending for him, likely to live out his days running an extremely smaller buisness, his purpose diminished and he alienated his children. Ironically he was very much like his old man in the final scene.
Kendall won’t be okay but that’s the point. None of the kids deserves to win. They are all spoiled jealous insecure brats. And that’s exactly what happened in the end. Shiv would rather die then let Kendall win.
@@DrSJH159 Nobody deserves anything
@@SuperCrow02xactly. Even Tom and Greg don’t get what they deserve , which is their new job.
The entire cast is stellar. I would love to hear from Sarah Snook, and all of the cast, now that they don't have to avoid spoilers.
Give Jeremy all the awards
“Where Love is absent, power is filling this hole” wow
These actors love working with Sarah Snook, legend!
Yes, they were all good, but Shiv speaks volumes using her eyes alone, she is multi-dimensional. Romulus (Kieran) is also able to move up and down and into many dimensions. I've heard them even talking about responding to Sarah, and also when she is on the phone with Tom who is sharing blows about her father dying, and even her movements, hand gestures and she has an Australian accent that we never even get a hint of!
All the Emmys for Jeremy Strong!
"wake up zombies! time to activate..." Lukas Matsson was such an absorbing character!
So Tom becomes a client King under the influence of a foreign King but he gets to sit on the throne of Waystar/ Royco. I believed that Kendall would get to be King but lose everyone, but this ending gives me hope he can move on and be a better father than Logan
Succession ending was a tragedy. I’m sad as the Roy’s relation is damaged forever like Logan and Ewan.
Kendall was my favorite one, I always felt there is part of him in me and seeing him losing again makes me depressed.
It’s the best drama show ever made.
Kendall was my favourite too, and that’s Jeremy Strong’s amazing work. I was always rooting for him, hoping, and a few times it seemed almost possible he would make it - and then it is shattering to watch when he can’t do it and he fails, and loses everything. His Dad did love him and protected him, and now through Colin was still watching out for him. Brilliant show in all respects. So many amazing performances, Matthew M, Sarah S, Kieran Culkin, every one of them. A modern masterpiece, with the perfect, tragic ending that completed the arc of the story of each of the siblings, and Tom.
What was tragic about it? Ruch people not getting what they want? Is that a tragedy? They still rich AF, they hold shares, they young, alive. It's drams, yeah, and it's a cathartic finale, but tragic? I felt the finale, as great as it was, it dropped the ball on showing what was evident in the premier episode, and that is how corrupt, small and pathetic these people are. It made us rooting for then instead and feel sorry when they don't get it.
congratulations jeremy, you made a character that will go down in history
So incredible to listen to these two burgeoning masters actors talk in depth about such interesting characters. Gonna miss this show
Alexander is still a nobody
@@legallyregarded he isn’t but you are
@@legallyregardedHe isn’t a ‘nobody’ but I agree that he is hardly a ‘master actor’. Neither is Strong, as yet, but may be. He is a big fan of DDL and he hasn’t quite crept out from under his shadow.
Everyone of us knows Jeremy actually drank what was in that smoothie..always full commitment,gotta love him
I was really hoping they switched it out with a chocoloate milkshake..........I think that would have been the better choice......he got sick later and could have jeapordized filming schedule.
It came full circle once again. From series 1, episode 1 and the finale, Kendall was to be CEO and it was taken away. Dad first now Shiv.
I saw Shiv as being most like her father - SO manipulative. Superlative character writing here.
So true. The only thing that I didn't like about the finale was that Shiv wasn't berated enough for all her misdoings. She was the most toxic among the three.
But it will bother Shiv that Tom has more power and she's just his wife. They deserve each other. And I couldn't believe it when Lukas interviewed Tom and said he wanted to f**k his wife, and Tom just sits and takes it. He'll take anything to get what he wants. And I was glad to see Greg hit Tom back. The worst for me was seeing Tom in charge of Waystar, even as a puppet.
Top tier finale, sad it's over, but a fitting ending.
Kendall was the only one with the credentials. The other kids could not get into Harvard despite the family name
Shiv - a knife or razor used as a weapon.
She stabbed Kendall in the back. Kendall had "it", and Shiv couldn't stand it, and in jealousy she betrayed him.
Everyone knows what the word "shiv" means.
They also betrayed her, so... Everyone kind a had it coming. None of them deserved a good ending anyway
Kendall betrayed his sibilings too. Shiv didn’t stand for Kendall because she knows he is not the best option for CEO. Tom will keep the company running, he’ll keep the legacy safe. She can go back to politics that’s what she loves.
@@susanzooz I firmly disagree. Kendall was the best option of the three siblings. She may go back to politics. But she will never love Tom, but she'll go through the motions, as referenced by their final handshake. She got off on her presumed superiority over him. That's gone now. She's Tom's wife, as opposed to him being Shiv's husband. Her pride won't recover from that
@@lxuaes6915Maybe she can still have power over him because of the child.
Amazing series. One that I’ll rewatch again and again.
I am here as a fellow viewer, to acknowledge that Succession has, as we know, ended. Succession was a show, also Succession has been on HBO since 2018. And when a show ends it is sad. All the shows will end one day. In this case, it is Succession who has done so. Succession was on air for four seasons, but no more, now it is over. Succession's viewers were us. Now we are sad.
I love hearing Strong talk, he has a nice vocabulary
What a ride. I've been rooting for Tom ever since he sided with Logan at the season 3 finale. I am glad he won and decided to keep Greg because as we know "You can't make a Tomlette without breaking some Greggs"
But Tom is made now and don’t needs any Gregg’s for now
@@Grovelaar he'll always need greggs in my opinion or at least he loves having him around even though he's selfish and will betray Tom when there's something in it for him.
Tom and Gregg’s dysfunctional bromance is my favorite relationship in this show, so I loved that despite the multiple back and forth betrayals, Tom is keeping Gregg by his side.
When Tom told him on election night that he “can’t have someone else do my gregging” it was such great writing.
Shiv is actually the least likeable of all the kids
@@lucyhidayat9063 an argument could be made for Kendall sometimes but most times shiv is the least likeable
Jeremy Strong basically did this podcast as Kendall. How crazy!!
Excellent podcast of one of my favorite shows of all time. Repeated viewing only enhance the experience. With Kara as host, we are treated to the actors providing additional analysis of scenes, the show & their characters. Jeremy Strong is a deep thinker, and it profoundly shows in his work.
I so wanted Ken to win, and i really thought he did, i was happy with the happy ending, and then Shiv did that. And I was angry at first, but then i realised that was the right ending. It's the only right ending.
Jeremy Strong is not only a superb actor, he is also a very deep person.
The truth is that Succession definitely established Jeremy Strong as one of the most talented actors in TV history.
These interviews would have far more views w/o Kara Swisher.
Watching the whole series again and now I know the ending I can see it all the way through. I recommend watching it again because you really get a whole new prospective on the show.
They weren’t serious people.
But honestly, I’m so glad to have watched, enjoyed and been emotionally abused by this show in real-time, to all of us who are united in our love of Succession, Skål! 🍻
i want Jeremy to tell bedtime stories till i fall asleep
NOOO ITS OVER😭😭😭
In all seriousness, a true masterpiece on all levels. This is what a masterclass in writing and storytelling looks like from every fundamental aspect of the show. I am super satisfied with this finale. It was simply incredible how everything ended. I had a feeling it would end the way it ended, but I did not in the slightest expect it to go down that way.
My boy Tom was the only one who could have possibly been victorious out of that circle of characters (siblings and family members). Sure I have no doubt Jesse and his team could have gone the route of Kendall coming out on top, and it would have had it's own poetic sense to it calling back to the very beginning, but there would be one thing missing... the element of tragedy.
At it's core this show is a Shakespearean tragedy, and the way they ended it completely encapsulates that.
I'll miss this show so much, but they went out on top, and that's all we can ask for.
👏👏👏👏 Sensational!!!
This show was so perfect, got me from the beginning: the understated writing, innovative camera work & the amazing acting. I love it gleeful it stuck the landing.
it was so early for kendall to sit on the boss chair...it was a trigger for other siblings .
