Succession S4 (Final Season)

[tawdry schooner]

The new CEO is Logan

He resurrected

[faint trail]

The Lazarus Pit sure is handy

[quartz grove]

I mean, they all fucking suck haha

They're all objectively awful

[alpine zenith]

True just now that we know the result it hits harder. The ending was so powerful.

[tawdry schooner]

Except Colin

[quartz grove]

||I mean, she became her mother. Stuck in an unhappy, loveless marriage with a wealthy CEO||

[hoary wave]

damn

what a finale

[faint trail]

And also Greg lmfao! I'm glad he finally got caught out for playing all sides while acting dumb, that felt like a proper ending for him. It kind of was lol

[quartz grove]

||And he still went crawling back to Tom after everything||

💀

[tawdry schooner]

It was always meant to be this way

[quartz grove]

omg i never even noticed that

[alpine zenith]

This is perfect

[faint trail]

And also i just saw the ending again! I think it's possible ||Kendall might choose to live. With Kendall being followed by the shadow of his father(the guy who worked for Logan and covered up the kids death and also knows him) . Sinister in one way but also likely the only thing keeping him from killing himself.||

Or its also possible he doens't give a fck and let's him do whatever he wants lmao

[faint trail]

Yes, but he'll most probably be a ||frozen servant. Yes he might make loads of money now but any chance of career advancement in Waystar he had hoped for is permanently dead for him. And Tom will milk him out for what he did but keeping him at bottom of the top... For sure! I mean Tom can't make his Tomelettes without breaking some Greggs lmfao||

Quite interesting

[indigo ruin]

Tom was always the most competent of them all.

In terms of actually filling the CEO position.

He's got real experience unlike any of the Roys who mostly inherited their positions

[slim tiger]

I will say Kendall was alright as well compared to others but ya|| Tom also had the chops but for Mattson again its choosing someone whom he can control||

[worn fractal]

What a great ending
||From the point Ken asked 'which' it was a downward spiral ||

[worn fractal]

Kek

|| I love how we still dk if mencken wins ||

[indigo ruin]

Doesn't matter to writers because it doesn't matter to Mattsen

[lunar shale]

perfect ending

[atomic mango]

So, Kendalls a dead man (suicide), Roman is an alone alcoholic (hopefully), and Shiv will be as unhappy as her mother (also hopefully)

[lime jay]

We are all sad

[atomic mango]

im still not sure what happened at the meeting to cause Shiv to flip when she was on board with Ken until then

everything she said about Kendall was true the day she said she would support him

[tawdry schooner]

You’ve sort of answered it yourself

She didn’t go in with the intent of voting for Kendall

[atomic mango]

why say she does then?

[prime bluff]

Ken walked in there and put his shoes up on daddy's desk

[tawdry schooner]

To lie? False hope?

[prime bluff]

Then decided to bulldoze the board meeting and denied he ever had anything to do with someone dying

[tawdry schooner]

But also did she ever say she’s definitely voting for him when they were there

[atomic mango]

not sure how that helps anything. woulda made more sense to just not back him

[tawdry schooner]

If Kendall knew he didn’t have Shiv’s vote he would’ve gone to someone else to get theirs

If he doesn’t know he can’t prepare

As far as Kendall is aware Shiv is a solid lock so he’s safely won

[atomic mango]

i guess we'll be left to speculate as the show didnt really say

[prime bluff]

There's all sorts of reasons

[tawdry schooner]

No but it’s clear why she changed her mind anyway

She gains more from Tom being in charge

[prime bluff]

Tom, Kendall's incompetence, her instilled drive to compete against her siblings etc

If the vote was a landslide she would have gone with it but to be in the control spot she couldn't let it happen

[lime jay]

I feel bad for Tom and Shiv's unborn child, that kid's gonna be fucked

[atomic mango]

hopefully Roman has a terrible life of solitude and booze

and hopefully Shiv feels life long guilt at her brothers suicide

[tawdry schooner]

I don’t think Kendall is gonna kill himself

It’s definitely an ‘it’s all bullshit’ moment

[atomic mango]

hes an addict, and he said if it cant be him "thats it for me", and the last time we saw him the sun was setting on him

[tawdry schooner]

Of course, he is a direct representation of his father

But he also carries that motivation to do it for his kids

[atomic mango]

i think hes a dead man

[tawdry schooner]

Colin stood in the background, like Kendall is leaving behind the last part of that life

Well I think of all the lowest points in my life and I’m sure lots of people would agree

The answer isn’t always suicide

[atomic mango]

sure its not always the answer, but for Ken i think it is

[tawdry schooner]

It’s just awfully pessimistic

We know that Kendall always loses but he always comes back up

Literally every single season finale he lost big time but he comes back

[hoary wave]

cant wait for the spin off

[prime bluff]

Jeremy Strong wasn't optimistic but if Kendall can find something he'll be ok

[atomic mango]

Ken will go back to drugs 1st, will have no family to stop him as his wife and kids wont be there if hes hi and Shiv is now his enemy. Roman is worthless in helping anyone... I feel Ken is gone

[tawdry schooner]

If only he had kids or something

[atomic mango]

he had kids the last time he did drugs and they didnt stop him

Logan did and the desire to be king

[tawdry schooner]

That was a reply to the message above to be fair

[atomic mango]

ah

[tawdry schooner]

But no you have a good point

[prime bluff]

Mr Mom 2: Kendall's Coming Home

[tawdry schooner]

I just think what’s one thing we know about Kendall

He does not give up he doesn’t stop

If this wasn’t the final season everyone would be saying he was just sad

[atomic mango]

he never stopped his quest to be king, Shiv took it from him

the quest is over

[prime bluff]

Kendall being an obsessive helicopter parent has great comedy potential

[tawdry schooner]

If there was another season would you be saying that

You wouldn’t right

[urban ridge]

well there isn't

so

https://tenor.com/view/kendallroy-succession-sad-gif-26496185

[tawdry schooner]

But the world still goes on

Which is excellent

[prime bluff]

The Hundred can still happen. His guy Tellis is right there with him

[atomic mango]

lol: https://i.redd.it/t0kphq9iur2b1.jpg

[tawdry schooner]

Jeremy says he shot a full take in which he jumped over the fence

[brisk folio]

so kendall with all the cash from the sale, can't renegotiate PGN because they no longer have logan competing with them, and build that up to be better than the stupid swede shit

[prime bluff]

They can all just walk away from the PGN stuff

Just more rich people theater

[slim tiger]

Even with the cash its not like he's worth tens of billions of dollars though

[brisk folio]

he could get a loan from an investor and give them a stake in the business

[slim tiger]

I doubt a lot of investors will trust him now though but he can try, I do think as Jeremy Strong said in that podcast, ||he thinks Kendall is just done being a businessman now, his whole life is over ||

[worn fractal]

Im more offended she made him drink it and then fucked him over than just normally fucking him over. Like why 💀

[meager leaf]

the only person who could eat his chicken is his successor

[molten goblet]

No way, people are honestly asserting Shiv was character assassinated in this episode ☠️

[prime bluff]

After that letter from her in season 3 I can't believe anyone is surprised she could publicly stab him in the back

[molten goblet]

Probably the first time anyones ever surprised him in a long time or even ever

[warped frigate]

Kinda surprised they went with pretty straightforward finale

[worn fractal]

Was it straightforward? That wouldve ben Ken being Ceo

[slim tiger]

Ya the succession finale wasn't straightforward

[warped frigate]

Nah, Ken is not a real boy, he couldn't be the CEO

I didn’t buy the season!

It’s a script book

[prime bluff]

Ah that makes sense

[faint trail]

I don't think Kendall's gonna commit suicide, my reasoning and perspective as i said above☝🏻 @atomic mango

[faint trail]

Ohh ffs😑🤦🏻

[faint trail]

I think it goes for every single season of Succession. A through and through masterpiece with no weak episode.

Each of them crafted exceptionally well.

[molten goblet]

I bet their idea of continuing is Kendall just forcing his way back in or something.

they want to make more but dont have the imagination to do so

[nocturne chasm]

eh i think some of the earlier ones arent that great

[faint trail]

I think they want a done and tired ending of Kendall being on top like a lone king with nothing and no one around him like a sort of Godfather esque type ending ffs.

But they don't know Jesse Armstrong and Adam McKay and the co always intended this to be a rather somber tragic Shakespearen tale where no one gets what they want. Its sort of like a cross between subverted King Lear & Macbeth lol which is absolutely fantastic 🔥🙌🏻

[nocturne chasm]

genuinely dont understand why tom keeps greg tho

doesnt make sense to me

[faint trail]

As it was always described and intended, the ending was just a tragedy. Truthfully, it could've never been Kendall. Everything the series showed us about the cracks growing up under the pressure of being the presumed successor the addiction, estrangement, and manic episodes-made it evident that, while best prepared, it would've killed him. Shiv, though as much a killer as any, was too impulsive, to desperate for approval. For Roman, I honestly think once closeness to his dad was impossible and once he realized he himself couldn't handle the pressure, it all meant nothing-for him, I truly think he wanted closeness with family and his father.

Though it would've happened regardless, I found myself tripping when Shiv left the room, and left Mattson. It was the same mistake Roman made at the end of the last season-hubris blinded them both and what they thought was certain faded.

[faint trail]

My 2 cents about Gregs possible future from my perspective @nocturne chasm ☝🏻

[nocturne chasm]

yeah no he uses every chance he gets at knifing whoever he has to knife just in order to go up

he really isnt that dumb

[alpine zenith]

Let them have there fan fiction it’s fun.

[nocturne chasm]

or dumb at all

[alpine zenith]

Cause he’s in love with him

[nocturne chasm]

ha ha ha

[faint trail]

That's why I'm glad he got caught playing out all sides while acting dumb(i think he's dumb and people give him more credit than he really deserves lmao) this felt like a proper ending for him. And Tom will obviously be careful and milk him out for every scheme he had up his sleeve that dumb fck

[faint trail]

Duh! He can't make his Tomelettes without breaking few Greggs!

[nocturne chasm]

i think the whole shipping tom and greg thing is the worst thing to happen to the show other than casting dasha nekrasova

[atomic mango]

his security wont be with him 100% of the time. and he wont stop Kendall for relapsing into drugs. Kendall is a dead man to me. His wife and kid left, his father died, what he thought of as his birthright was taken from him. also, he said he was done if he couldnt have this. then the last time we see him, the sun is setting on him.

[nocturne chasm]

literally the two most heterosexual characters in the whole show

[atomic mango]

because tom has always been someones lapdog, he just wants someone to be his. even as CEO he is still a lapdog and greg will still be his

[nocturne chasm]

i mean yeah but hes kind of a dangerous lapdog? you can get a less dangerous lapdog i'm sure

[alpine zenith]

It’s heartbreaking to me even though, he’s a terrible person. It must be Jeremy Strong that makes me feel bad for him or just the good writing.

[atomic mango]

if one enjoys their dog, they dont get rid of it

[faint trail]

Hence why i said the next text below it's also possible he doesn't give a fck and he let's Kendall do what he wants which is fine either way.

[atomic mango]

security isnt with someone 24/7, even if his security desperately wants to prevent it, they have no way of stopping it

i hope after Kendall offs himself (either purposely or with drugs), Roman never talks to Shiv again

[nocturne chasm]

i dont think kendalls gonna spiral that much lol hes still egregiously rich

[faint trail]

He can be but he got caught playing all sides and Tom I'm pretty sure won't let him get his way everytime. Its possible he might be more careful while being more strict on him.

I think ain't as that clever and subvertive enough to backstab everytime. I mean we saw how it mostly worked out.

[nocturne chasm]

i think either way it's better to keep him away

[atomic mango]

i never hated Kendall or Shiv, it was really Roman who I always felt was irredeemably terrible, from season 1 episode 1

[warped frigate]

easiest way to get back on him is to have him be his footstoole

[alpine zenith]

Same never felt bad for Roman. I liked Shiv in season 2, but I knew she couldn’t do the job. If Kendall would have stuck to the killer instincts before the finale he would be Logan 2.0. Instead he was just a child like he’s been all four seasons.

[faint trail]

That's sort of my point and he more or less will take it and tries to move on with some other stuff. I think he even seem to took Romans words to heart when he said we're nothing

[patent dirge]

well just finished the episode and idk what to feel

kinda wanted Ken to win but dude was a asshole

like everyone else

imo Breaking Bad had the best finale ever because it had satisfying ending

[alpine zenith]

That’s kind how I felt after watching it.

[patent dirge]

i dont think this show was meant to have a satisfying ending

even if it ran for another season i dont understand how it could still have a "satisfying" ending

i watched this show until end credits i dont think i ever did it for another show

[molten goblet]

well there's fanfic then there's funding a continuation via AI

[patent dirge]

imo it was a good ending but i have no idea lol

will give it a few days i guess

[lime jay]

Fanfiction is fun and great and I love it but the normal way to do it is writing fix-its on Ao3 and not crowdfunding an AI-generated series

[atomic mango]

im happy with the ending. Roman lost which is nice (i wouldve kicked in my TV if Roman won), Shiv who was VERY mean to Tom early on, will now have to deal with a new power dynamic in their relationship, Connor stays Connor, Kendal devolves

[nocturne chasm]

i mean it is kinda satisfying the most these characters actually deserved was to die lol

they are all evil

[patent dirge]

imo in a TV show you can support the assholes there is nothing wrong with it in that terms

but its 2 different shows

EXTREMELY different shows

i dont see how you can top the ending for THIS show

[nocturne chasm]

i mean they literally helped establish a neonazi president 2 episodes ago

[patent dirge]

its weird in terms of that

[nocturne chasm]

they kind of deserve everything that happens to them

[patent dirge]

i agree

but not in terms of character but in terms of story there feels something not satisfying to me

but it was never supposed to be "satisfactory"

you know what i mean?

actually idk what i mean

[nocturne chasm]

i dont really care about satisfaction when it comes to plots

[patent dirge]

but the finale was a big impact

it did its job

i dont think this show could have done a better job with its Impact

mostly in right terms

thats all my thoughts lol

[quartz grove]

I mean, Shiv and Tom are just as bad as each other

They almost deserve each other in a way bc they both suck and their marriage is fucking loveless but they'll never leave each other

[quartz grove]

I mean, thats why the writing of the show is so good

[nocturne chasm]

i mean yeah

[quartz grove]

EVERYONE in the show objectively sucks but you're still "rooting" for them in a way

[nocturne chasm]

i would be lying if i said i didnt cry when logan died

and he is pretty much literal satan

[quartz grove]

I cried for his kids

Not really him

[molten goblet]

Folk saying Shiv saved Kendall. I mean maybe but idk

Dude straight lost the one actual thing he seemed to care about. He sure as shit doesn’t have Rava or his kids because of how he treats them

[alpine zenith]

I did get sad a little when ||Logan died ||, which I didn’t expect cause I don’t like him.

[delicate sand]

i think that scene had something really raw yet real to it in that that whole sequence is exactly how such events often play out now, even pre covid, of the mad scramble to figure out what to do as its happening and you are miles away

I think Kendall is better at consulting or even doing startups

[faint trail]

Same. That episode was tough. I didn’t really care for the series for a few episodes. That’s when I realized I honestly went through the 5 stages of grief when Logan died. The 3 stooges aren’t really the best people and characters but Logan made the show very engaging. That said, this show is phenomenal and it ended on a high note

Will say, Succession was initially a 5 season show. 😩

[lone thorn]

For a second I thought ||Kendall was gonna off himself at the end||

[slim tiger]

Actually.. ||Jeremy strong said that he did film the scene of Kendall falling off in the river but it wasn't shown at the end||

[lone thorn]

Lol makes sense

I actually prefer how it played out, ||him leaving with the knowledge that he failed and that he'd never be good enough||

[warped frigate]

not what happened

||In the take not used, Strong took the scene one step further, actually climbing onto the barrier only to be pulled back by bodyguard Colin (Scott Nicholson).

“I looked at these waves and it was so windy that day and so cold and there was some piece of metal clanging and it was this terrible sound and I sort of couldn’t bear it. I stood up and walked slowly to the barrier that was set up there and climbed over it,” Strong says. “I didn’t really know what I planned to do, and the actor playing Colin saw me and ran and stopped me from doing it.”

“I’m sure Jesse’s choice is better,” he says, “and in a way I think you see the intentionality in the character.||

[slim tiger]

I don't think I have ever listened to this many podcasts regarding a series finale than Succession one

[slim tiger]

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1W4yitwfKvo&t=4s

[atomic mango]

i dont mind Shiv's decision, i just think her timing was a bit odd

everything she says about Ken is true, but they were also true of Ken the night before, so why at the last minute?

she totally has issues. shes now her mom

and she basically killed her brother. no way Ken survives no direction, no wife/kids, and a drug habit

thats ken alright. when i hear him say, "if i cant have this thats it for me" and the last time we see him the sun is setting on him, im inclined to think hes a dead man

[slim tiger]

Well I think ||she supported Kendall at first because she was super angry at Mattson for betraying her and it was just a emotional decision.. but then few hrs before the board meeting, she finds out that Tom is actually the chosen CEO and I guess after that she thought about all the possibilities and chose the one that may benefit her.. plus the way Kendall came after her and not giving her space and that lying about manslaughter just solidified her belief that Kendall wasn't the right person for the job. ||

[slim tiger]

Jeremy strong says ||this is a extinction level event for Kendall and Jesse Armstrong says this is the singular most important event of Kendall's life and while it's possible he will form a new company later on, he will never reach the heights of his father and that will always bother him||

[atomic mango]

yeah i heard a few people saying if Ken held it together when Shiv started waffling, she may have stayed the course

[atomic mango]

at least he'll without question get higher (drugwise) than Logan ever did in his life

[slim tiger]

We will never know but ||Ken going there didn't help, he even lost Roman at that point ||

[slim tiger]

Yup and I think he's more or less ||done for a few years at least.. he has nobody but Colin with him now except of course billions of dollars ||

[atomic mango]

it makes sense that all logans kids are nuts tho

all i kept thinking about as logan was dying is, If he can actually hear what theyre saying to him on the phone, he must hear nothing but his own failure as a parent. cause none of them could articulate emotion very well

having 2 shitty parents at once is a rough hand to be dealt. then be wealthy on top of it and not really be expected to do anything

[slim tiger]

All three are nuts not just one, and honestly ||once Kendall lied about that manslaughter incident, that was the final nail in the coffin.. even Roman didn't support Ken after that ||

Well, ||She also has a baby coming though and I guess she feels she can get along with Tom much more than Kendall who btw, cut her out when he was Co CEO of the company, so now she gets billions of dollars from the sale along with being close to CEO of the company ||

Tom and Shiv relationship is definitely not a healthy one but again, the whole situation is horrible

Ya but again ||She gets billions of dollars and can easily live by herself later, there was no guarantee of that if Kendall ran the company but then destroyed it tanking the share price ||

Your last point exactly.. ||Shiv realised that if she made Kendall CEO then he will just cut her out of the company and she may not be able to do anything at that point, also ya she might have felt that Kendall was becoming Logan 2.0 as well.. again hosts of reasons and that Kendall lying about manslaughter was the last straw ||

Regarding Shiv, I also wonder ||If it wasn't Tom who was gonna be CEO but let's say that Vaulter guy or someone, would she have voted for Kendall then?? ||

[alpine zenith]

It’s been almost three days and I still can’t stop thinking about the finale.

Let’s just say it hit me pretty hard with what happened to ||Kendall||. ||I know he’s terrible, but I still want to support him. ||

[alpine zenith]

That’s when Logan knew ||Tom should be CEO after he’s gone ||

[tawdry schooner]

What’s he gonna do next? Stick his cock in my potato salad?

hes more puppet than CEO tho. Matsson owns him and beat all the Roys

[lone thorn]

Yeah he is, still he enjoys the status of the position

Still wouldnt say he won

||The only winner was Matsson||

[atomic mango]

i guess it really was the only satisfying way to end it. had any of the siblings won over the other, 1/3 of the audience would be happy and 2/3 would riot

[lone thorn]

Yeah I didnt want any of them to win

[atomic mango]

ida been ok with kendall, but theyre all assholes who deserve nothing in the end

tho i still kinda wish the kid Roman trolled in season 1 episode 1 randomly showed up in the finale to get some bodily revenge on Roman

[tawdry schooner]

I had to buy the book

I got it for season 4

And really trying to resist getting it for season 3

[molten goblet]

Kinda wish Roman got a bit more comeuppance. Had his face squeezed for a few seconds, about it

[tawdry schooner]

Had to cop

[atomic mango]

yeah, that brief knockdown wasnt enough. i needed him knocked out cold at least

Shiv def looks the part

Jeremy looks like he'd be one of those extremely pretentious professors who peaked in college

[molten goblet]

Brian’s the theatre studies teacher, Jeremy would probably be like an analysis on authors teacher, Sarah literature, Matthew poetry perhaps, Nicholas is his student aide, Kieran I’m not sure and Alan is general English

[lime jay]

Sarah and Matthew are the cool and chill professors who share pictures of their cats and give out a reasonable amount of work

Sarah and Matthew are basically the only non-method actors on the show at this point

They seem to be so lovely in real life and the complete opposite of Tom and Shiv

[molten goblet]

well, we can include Brian in that considering his vocal hatred of the method lol

booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

David Chase has not been answering about ending of The Sopranos for 2 decades, don't you know how to leave things ambiguous?

[molten goblet]

I guess the big mystery they’ll want to keep up is if Kendall offed himself or not (Jeremy’s method acting improv isn’t canon lol)

[tawdry schooner]

Mark Mylod says he believes Kendall killed himself

So depends if you want to go with what the creators say

[slim tiger]

Well, for me Logan Roy may have underlined that but I think he did it much before and that definitely wasn't his intention later on.

[terse dirge]

It's highly likely that he underlined it since when we usually do it ourselves we don't tend to mess up at the start of the line.
Unless Logan wasn't wearing his glasses or something it's rare that anyone in his place would start a crossed out line from underneath the word.

No wonder the writing was so good in this show

[faint trail]

Insane

[warped frigate]

That's how every how's writers room looks like lol

[slim tiger]

Not every show has this many writers and that's one of the main sticking points behind the strike.. minimum writers room.

[warped frigate]

9? That's still far from "insane". It's on par or maybe even below average from HBO show

[slim tiger]

I'm talking about overall TV shows like Netflix shows among others

[faint trail]

All the more insane if it was below average statistics wise and these guys gave succession

:kekw:

i never said its not insane for other shows' writers room

but to get a glimpse behind the writers room for this show is kinda insane ngl

Call it what u would say average, normal, or whuhuhboot

[tawdry schooner]

It’s cool to see masters at work

[tawdry schooner]

https://variety.com/2023/tv/news/succession-split-final-season-two-parts-16-episodes-1235731303/

[slim tiger]

That would have been interesting but in hindsight the final season of Succession was near perfect and I loved the finale

[delicate sand]

I appreciate that just as this show ends, the real thing its inspired by has logan semi retiring and kendall "taking over" before logan dies

[tawdry schooner]

Rupert saw season 4 and decided he had to step down before this happened

[patent gull]

Near perfect?

[tawdry schooner]

It was no Ahsoka…lol

Yes.. no TV show is really perfect

[faint trail]

Nothing can compare to Ahsoka actually according to some people
