Why did Kendall refuse to pay Greg for the watch? Kendall is ridiculously rich, and Greg literally got him the papers that made his entire plan possible. Without those papers, Kendall’s move against Logan doesn’t even happen.

Pretty decent starring and guest starring cast in there

First time watching this show and I am on season 3. I feel like all of the characters are bad people if not maybe broken people. I must say though Tom is starting to grow on me the most. Do they ever bring up the rocket ship exploration again that Roman was responsible for? Anyway, it's s pretty good so far.

Hey everyone, so i've been rewatching season 1 and something was bugging me , how come Stewie and Sandy were ok with Kendall as the next CEO when Stewie clearly knows for the fact Ken is unstable af?

Is the position a secondary issue to them or is it something the authors didn't put much thought in (as it wasn't gonna happen anyways given the finale)

What do you think?

The more I rewatch Succession the more I kinda feel like the real tragedy is not even that none of them got Waystar. It is that every once in a while you get these little moments where Kendall Roman and Shiv actually seem like normal siblings who genuinely like being around each other.

Like the kitchen scene in the finale is probably the best example. For a few minutes they are just messing around being idiots together and honestly it almost feels weird because you realize this is probably what they could have been like all the time if they had grown up normally.

Then the second Waystar and the whole CEO thing becomes real again it all falls apart.

I feel like Logan basically made it impossible for any of them to separate love from competition. Their entire lives there was always something to prove or something to win and somehow it always came back to getting Logan's approval.

People only hate her because she prevented the main character from getting what he wanted. Because we’re so used to stories ending with our main character winning. And yet episode after episode, we are shown how incapable Kendall was for the role of CEO. He was delusional, always making dumb uninformed decisions on a whim, ignoring the counsel of those around him and whenever he failed he resorted to substance abuse which led to a lot of detriment and even death. If you watched Succession in full and thought Kendall deserved to take over then I’m afraid you weren’t paying attention. People hate Shiv so much for doing the right thing, arguably the only honorable thing she did in the entire show. People hate her more for this than for what she did in Season 2 episode 9. Like, why did you want Kendall to take over? How did he prove himself to you as valid for the role throughout show? What did he do that was so outstanding that it washed away all the arguments against him taking over?

So was Shiv pregnant at the end? Is this why she chose to stick with Tom at the end?

They don't actually do any work I mean what is there to take succession off I have not seen any of them do anything that is work? I mean what actually is there jobs?

Like WTF man? I thought he was giving him a hug when I saw it before (yes I wasn't sober).

I also noticed Greg's betrayal of Shiv in America Decides and he's walking on the outside of the glass panels. That shrug in the first one then gigantic smile in the second was perfect.

In the episodes after Logan's death, Marcia is still plainly in control of the domestic side of things. She can get Colin to do her bidding with Kerry (probably the most surprising thing to me post-Logan) but the same with Kevin and Me-lah-knee... she gives an order and they jump. I thought Marcia would be in for the same treatment as Kerry... the real boss is gone, your power with it.

Or did they just write it that way to have the scene with Kerry?
