Succession has ended
May. 30th, 2023 12:07 pmI'm a sucker for wanky prestige television, but I only started watching Succession because I was going to be on a plane for 14 hours and it looked like something I could fall asleep to. I queued it up, starting at episode 5 because the plane's media interface confused me, and was enthralled. Followed ep 5 with ep 2. Well, I thought it was a bit avant garde in its structure, but it was amazing. I was hooked. I watched five episodes before I fell asleep.
When we got home, we sat down to watch the rest of the season, and I quickly figured out that (a) I had started in the wrong place; (b) it is INTENSELY linear in its structure; (c) it's roughly on par with Chernobyl as one of the greatest TV series ever made. (RIP the Prestige TV Era. Now that it seems to be coming to an end, perhaps I should finally watch The Sopranos.)
But I'm not here to talk about why Succession is great, or why I'll miss it, or why I thought the ending was perfect. I'm here because PEOPLE ARE BEING WRONG ON THE INTERNET and Twitter doesn't have spoiler tags.
( MY OPINIONS ARE CORRECT, DAMMIT )
