    I agree. I don’t think any other actor would be able to do the role justice

    But man I’d be so interested in seeing the wild s*** that Logan was doing when he was younger. And to see all the moments that shaped the personalities of the Roy kids

    Yeah keep any project that doesnt involve any of the original actors

    I think the show wrapped up perfectly anyway tbh. Just let things end before we get another Many Saints of Newark

    Yea like I said, a spin-off would be completely unnecessary

    It’s just an interesting idea to think about

    na it's been confirmed that she birthed them. just don't know if ken fathered them

    If she birthed them he wouldn’t have any legal grounds to threaten custody right? I’m not sure how that works

    i think this show’s very “boring” landscape (compared to past great shows) really ties in how well written and well acted this show was

    shows like breaking bad, BCS, sopranos, wire, etc all had relatively exciting things to fall back on (cartels, gangs, mafia) whereas succession had f***in board meetings and shareholder drama as its big bad and still made things extremely tense and exciting to watch

    I always think it’s hilarious that almost every image/still from this show is just a few characters sitting down in some fancy place or some mundane office

    It was for me. What sold me were funny youtube videos of Logan going off on people

    Then I watched an episode and realized it was about a f***ed up family more than corpo billionaire s***.

    When I first started watching it I almost stopped after Episode 2 because I was bored out of my mind.

    I stuck with it and was absolutely hooked by the vote of no confidence episode

    I don’t think a spin-off is necessary at all, but man I’d be lying if I said I wouldn’t want to see a prequel with Logan in his prime . Then we could also see what the Roy children went through when they were young

    Like I said I don’t think spin-offs are necessary or should happen…but I would absolutely tune in to a Succession prequel

    Imagine if Jesse manages to pull off a Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul with a prequel to Succession

    As scripted, it was meant to end with an aerial shot where we see Kendall walking, and we see Colin following him. I begged Armstrong and director Mark Mylod, “Can we go to the water? I want to keep walking.” We ended up at the bitter end of Battery Park, facing the water. I'd never seen waves like that in the East River. It felt biblical. And there was this terrible clanging on some scaffolding nearby. We didn't know what we were looking for, but something profound happened. We only had about eight minutes to shoot that piece at the end because the sun was going down. The water was calling to me. It felt right to all of us.

    Listen to the John Berryman poem that Jesse has named these finales after. John Berryman himself died by suicide, jumping into the frozen river. I tried to go into the water after we cut—I got up from that bench and went as fast as I could over the barrier and onto the pilings, and the actor playing Colin raced over. I didn't know I was gonna do that, and he didn't know, but he raced over and stopped me. I don't know whether in that moment I felt that Kendall just wanted to die—I think he did—or if he wanted to be saved by essentially a proxy of his father.

    so i was right about this

    This, not everything needs an explanation. The implication/unknown of the characters is its own draw for the series

    Completely agree. Fill in the blanks yourself, use your imagination. Also, wtf could these kids be doing that’s interesting 😂school??

    The way the writers would always put Kendall in the water in big moments of his life, and each time have the viewers question if he’d drown….

    And then to have the very final shot of the show be him staring out at the ocean…leaving the audience uncertain if he is going to end it all…it’s just a really amazing way to end the series

    this is why the finale felt contrived ken shouldve ascended it was the natural conclusion but i think the writers wanted him to lose for the sake of it or something. very benioff/druckmann esque

    fr woulda been so fire if kendall ascended like this at the end of the finale
