    Hmmm, this was written before the start of this season:

    According to one popular fan theory, Succession has a pattern of focusing each season on a different character and their rise to power—or not—within the Roy family ranks. Season one is considered to be the “Kendall season,” with the action focused on the eldest Roy, while season two nearly passes the mantle to Shiv. The theory ostensibly means that season three will give Roman a chance to prove himself to his cantankerous father.

    Honestly kind of played out this way with Roman's rise and immediate fall in the back half of S3. And it would line up with Connor getting more attention during his presumed presidential push in S4.

    Then S5 it all comes crashing down for the finale.

    I can think of one moment in Twin Peaks: The Return that is far more potent than perhaps anything else put on screen.

    when cooper wakes back up in the hospital and the og twin peaks theme plays?

    In Part 17, when Cooper goes back in time and saves Laura from meeting death. In the woods, he reaches his hand out and tells her "we're going home" as they walk through the forest. In the following sequence you see the tragedy melting away on screen. The homecoming queen gets to live and Cooper would have never been sent to Twin Peaks and plunged into eternal darkness, eventually spending 25 years in another dimension - but only if.

  • Just had a weird thought

    What if the Gojo guy talking about how success is too easy & he feels like he needs to fail is like a meta textual flex from Jesse Armstrong & killing the main charecter & tearing it all down is the move

    Success(ion)?

    Rewatching clips from the latest episode, and I'm kinda disappointed that Logan and Kendall were having a 1 to 1 convo at the end of episode 4. The conversation in episode 8 should've clearly been the first (and last) time this season Logan and Kendall directly speak to each other.

    Why

    Well there's a couple reasons, but the biggest for me is the writing of both scenes. In episode 4 they basically just trade cheap insults until Logan is nearly passing out and Kendell is forced to care for him again. The conversation in the latest episode is actually pretty ambiguous, you can't really tell whether Logan is testing Kendall or just a plain narcissist and a******, and Kendall gives into the pressure that's been building up throughout the season and genuinely wants to give up.

    The other big factor is quite obviously the timing. I really loved what they were doing throughout episode 4 right up until the ending. Logan did not speak to Kendall at all and only answered Josh. Kinda kept the theme of the previous episodes where they only communicated through other people. Keeping this pattern throughout the entire season would've made their confrontation in episode 8 feel much heavier in terms of pressure and impact.

    well logan is definitely a a****** and a narcissist but I also do think that he has been testing Kendall as well.

    He wants Kendall to step up and be able to take over but he also isn't going to give it to him easy.

    i thought you were going to say the "what year is it" scene but damn the one you chose was when i realized i was watching something truly transcendent. i can't even explain the way i was feeling watching that

    The focus is different.

    In episode 4, the thing that really matters is Logan trying to save appearances. That’s where the tension resides so of course, their conversation shouldn’t be all that important.

    In episode 8, the conversation itself matters. The tension comes from this kind of psychological warfare between a hypocritical son and a psychopathic father.

    All I got to say is f*** Roman man literally the worst of the worst

    Yeah he was peculiar and chaotically funny, but harmless, to me until the last few eps. Really a complete asshat when he gets any sort of power or control (okay, yes, they all are, but I really dislike Roman’s execution of kicking Kendall while he’s down)

    For sure man, i think so too. Thing is, Logan has definitely gone too far now and hasn't realized yet. That's why I genuinely want Kendell to be dead just to see Logan's reaction and how he could change in the upcoming season(s)
