it's funny that Pat mentioned "Death at a funeral" because Matthew Macfadyen who plays Tom here is playing main character in the original British version of that movie.
The way Roman's hair has evolved this season makes him look like he wants to invade Poland. All he's missing is a stupid mustache and a suit made by Hugo Boss. He would feel really comfortable in 1930's Germany with that hairstyle he had while taking the picture with Mencken.
Team Kendall! It’s so over… where do we go from here? Also I love the shots of Tom coming back to the family after seeing Kendall, you can see how surreal the whole thing is but also there’s so many sinister undertones. Roman smashed it here, Logan credited him as a people sniffer in S1E9 and he didn’t fail. He has his moments to shine.
Tom and Greg are the power couple of this show 😂 I can't believe how terrifying this show has become seeing what the United States is going through right now. It's absolutely horrifying on a basic human level.
I never felt bad for Tom outside of how shiv does him dirty. He’s clearly a piece of garbage human being who literally does belong in jail for his role in the cover up
This is one of the greatest written TV shows of all time, and this episode is great as well but a tough watch. This show is funny and satire, but this episode felt too real & slimy. Mencken isn't Donald Trump, (but that's who show is trying to base him off of) Cris is right, he's Ron Desantis. Tom is absolutely right about Kendall & Logan, and seeing them pick a candidate is so disheartening. They pick him as someone they can control and great for their ratings, Fox News absolutely favored Donald Trump over other Republican candidates and he was great for their ratings.
DeSantis, get's taken down by a scandal over his BOOTS. Trump, just took a round to the face from a sniper and walks off stage, fist raised in defiance. They are not the same.
chris: in america, we kill kings, baby! america: Ummm, excuse me?! america doesnt have a problem with monarchy. we treat potus like he's a king. we'd have no problem with having a king. in fact there was a movement to make george washington king, he refused.
Hard disagree. We had a 240 year track record of peaceful transfer of power based on elections, until Trump f-ed it up. I'm currently vacationing in a country where you can be jailed for talking about the monarchy, and it really puts America's position in stark relief by contrast.
3:50 Hey Suraj. You may be getting that feeling because the actor is the same one who played Donald Blythe in House of Cards. Blythe was the Vice President from Season 3 to Season 5 and, (SPOILERS AHEAD) was Acting President for 2-3 episodes after an assassination attempt on Frank Underwood.
Suraj has seen Barry. He made a whole video essay on this channel about why the others should react to it. He calls out Stephen Root in the premium uncut video
I've said this is the perfect couch for this show before, but damn @ them essentially talking out the rest of the plot in the discussion folllowing this ep.
Typical Kendall, as Roman said, he is now in his classic self-destruct mode. Why to bother hiring specialist in their field, when you are a know-it-all, and do not listen?
I completely misread Shiv's character on my first watch. She's obviously a bad wife, but a lot more sympathetic when I consider how differently she must've experience someone like Logan (and even Caroline) as a young girl in comparison to her brothers. Sarah plays that discomfort with emotion so well, it makes you want to scream at her lol
On rewatching I wonder why this prison thing is such a storyline. Almost just for laughs. Never clear what he would be charged with, why it would definitely mean prison time. Just odd. So if needed he would simply admit to certain crimes and plead not guilty, and what the deal is don’t go after Logan? Nonsense.
The show is made like It's Always Sunny; a show full of awful characters you're not supposed to side with(though IASIP actually has likeable cartoon characters)
Kendall is worse than Logan in my mind just because while he's a horrible, egotistical person who is totally self-centered just like Logan, Kendall also has the added delusion that he's a good person. Logan at least knows who and what he is. Kendall is no "chaotic good", he's "chaotic evil".
@@reef4678 The worst at that is Shiv though. At least Kendall has times where he breaks down in guilt. Shiv never looked at herself once the entire show.
None of the kids will ever have his respect, at the end of the day, that's the truth. It's not due to their shortcomings as his kids but due to his failure as a father.
@@the_crypter that’s not necessarily true. He’s developed a bit of respect for Roman and since Kendall’s move against him last season, he’s definitely respected him. Siobhan and Connor (while he may love them) are disappointing.
@@justinrivera1618 Lol, that is not true at all, He Respected Kendall for 3 seconds. In the next episode he went to shit on him. He doesn't respect Roman lol, he is like a puppy to him. He is a manipulative person who knows extactly what button to press to make his kids listen to him. He truly believes what he says 'they are not serious people' (few minutes after that he tells roman that he "needs" him and next episode he makes roman fire Gerry because he knows about them) He never respected any of his kids even if he loved them, it's because how he raised them, as Kendall says in the first season, he gave them a much better life than the one he ever got, and he hates them for it.
@@the_crypter of course he’s going to shit on him. He’s not just gonna take Kendall‘s attack lying down. Also, just because he respects his children doesn’t mean he wouldn’t manipulate them. It’s what they do as a result of his manipulations that he’s looking for. Like I said, he respects Roman, the most followed by Kendall
@@justinrivera1618 Lmao, Like I said, he doesn't respect Roman, He treats him like a puppy, manipulates him, slaps him around, tells him to fire the person he knows Roman really likes. After 40 episodes of the show, if you really think Logan 'respects' Roman, you have an issue with Midea Literacy lol
@@the_crypter That or someone that’s actually paying attention to the show. Do feel free to deflect with name calling, it’s absolutely the mature thing to do. I don’t fully disagree with Roman at all, but he very rarely actually DOES anything, just talk like the most horrible person alive.
With recent events, I’m just finding it harder and harder to listen to deranged, juvenile liberal talking points. Whether it’s Destiny literally applauding the murder of a father, or these people stoking the idea that ‘the republic is going to end’. It’s just all becoming too ugly. We need the grown up liberals to get things back in order before things get even more dangerous.
Yup when you hear them call people facists you know they are looney and they have no idea what that word means or what actual victims who actually lived through facism had to go through. You can’t even say one bad word before your whole family faces the firing squad. These people live in their own fantasy world.
Tf are talking about? Grown up liberals are basically the same as grown up conservatives. Barely distinguishable on too many critical issues. It’s the new breed on the right that is more a problem because unlike these juveniles you speak of, they have a figurehead with sycophant supporters and plans to do real harm. Talking about republic going to end on one side, while another end wants to convince people the country should not be a democracy but more like a church with a clear head and followers.

Reaction kingdom planet of apes
Pat leaves me speechless in most Succession reactions I'll give him that
24:02 "why does she hate him that much tho?"....did you not pay attention the whole episode? Haha
Pat is truly fascinating.
Pat does not belong in these reactions
@@Benbones99 He belongs in a 9th grade classroom.
lol already on patreon being like "y'all are on season 4!?" and then getting depressed
You forget there's the editor tier.
Tom, when he is actually confident/angry and has the balls to say what he thinks, is one of my favorite characters in this show.
The women who got out of kendalls car was Karolina.. the company's PR,, Kerry is logans assistant
Confusing those bangs with Karolina, I can’t even
This is around the time Tom really became my favorite character and shows his true depth.
Me describing the first episode of the season
@@liljackypaper Lol, me too. But I admit my immediate love for him was because he's played by Matthew Macfadyen.
@@ameliacraiig4193 Same. Instant fave bec Mr. Darcy 😂
everybody watching the roman mencken bathroom scene: "are they gonna fuck?"
If this episode made you mad at politics wait till season 4
Roman flirts with fascists so well
Almost like he’s one himself
@@nestak6076Roman Roy’s politics r whatever benefits Roman Roy’s standing at Waystar. Same with Logan

Roman definitely knows how to fraternise. That sexual tension in the bathroom with his favourite contender, was palpable.😊
I feel how depressed they were at the end. Fun and games until it hits you with this and you're faced with some version of reality.
Tom and Greg are the power couple of this show 😂
I can't believe how terrifying this show has become seeing what the United States is going through right now. It's absolutely horrifying on a basic human level.
I never felt bad for Tom outside of how shiv does him dirty. He’s clearly a piece of garbage human being who literally does belong in jail for his role in the cover up
Episode is super depressing.
Especially on the 2nd watch.
This show is such a tragedy. 10/10
Seriously. The inconsequential, unserious third son essentially crowns the person who will lead America for the next four years.
24:50 Funny enough Pat the guy that played Tom starred in the original Death at a Funeral
Lol love that you mentioned the new version of death at a funeral while Tom was in the og death in a funeral 😂

No doubt Fox benefited greatly but Trump was/is great for everyone's ratings. He's a walking version of "if it bleeds it leads".
@@chaost4544 Speaking of bleeds, hello from two months later.
@@AT-rr2xw 🤣Damn. From an outsider watching in (me), that's cold, but I 'ear you. HAHA!
DeSantis, get's taken down by a scandal over his BOOTS.

They are not the same.
How is Ron DeSantis a fascist lmao

Ohhh that's why I recognize his mug. Man I miss House of Cards.
PLEASE yall need to watch Interview with the vampire! The best show of the year! Come on!
LOL this is one of my favorite episodes of the show. I love the political episodes because the media and politics got hand in hand.
Two months later, have they gotten to THAT season 4 episode yet?
Surprised you guys didn't recognize Fuchhes from Barry (speech) and Petey from Severance (salgado)
They haven't seen Severance yet.
@@delongtsway953 oh really? Hope they get to it on s2
@@Quzga Me too. I hope S2 comes out soon also!
They haven't seen Barry either. Hope we get that reaction someday.
Suraj has seen Barry. He made a whole video essay on this channel about why the others should react to it.
He calls out Stephen Root in the premium uncut video
It really shows Ken's immaturity that he thinks he can yell at government officials and magically get his way.
Season 3 is Tom’s season
Confusing Kerry and Karolina is unbelievable
I've said this is the perfect couch for this show before, but damn @ them essentially talking out the rest of the plot in the discussion folllowing this ep.
the election episode is gonna kill you guys 😅
I live in Nuremberg, Virginia.
True story.
do you get a lot of jokes about trials? :)
Next week the Kendall Spiral (tm) begins again with Le Kenfest!
Typical Kendall, as Roman said, he is now in his classic self-destruct mode.
Why to bother hiring specialist in their field, when you are a know-it-all, and do not listen?
Suraj. I was sure you were going to bring up the Title of " What it takes". I immediately thought of Lost
Pat, love the jersey
What is that green thing that Rana drinks all the time? :)
Greenpeace does suck, though. And yeah, Tom is amazing on this one.

Shiv fucked up when she told Logan how the climate would dictate how he chooses.
She’s terrible at reading how to play Logan
