    It's starting to feel very repetitive, with characters that have become far too caricatural. The only one interesting is Tom, but he's been reduced to his worse falsetto voice. The jerky camera work is as nauseating as Roman's childish swearwords. And the corporate intrigue has been relegated to the most simplistic iterations that make auction sales at a wet market far more intriguing ...It's starting to feel very repetitive, with characters that have become far too caricatural.

    What a disappointment, Succession decided to "go woke." Calling the fascist President Mencken. Wow, the writers learned so much in college! Now I guess they can go home and feel like they made a difference in the world. A show that was once great and Shakespearian turned into Mr. Rogers Neighborhood by a bunch of over-coddled and under-educated writers. Should I say -- Sad !

    Some of the most contrived nonsense that flies in the face of all logic. This destroys the first two seasons of this show retroactively. It is the S8 of Game of Thrones. HBO really needs to get better producers, as none of their shows can be trusted with two of these now.

    Rest assured that Succession is as magnificent as ever: a bravura television opera whose supple script, stealthy plotting and lurching twists provide all the mood music you need.

    Succession’s final season starts spectacularly strong, with equal parts high-stakes drama and laugh-out-loud comedy. Powerhouse performances from the Roy clan offer a dazzling masterclass of buttoned-up emotions competing with years of desperately craving approval from the family patriarch.

    Going out with a bang. ... The blue-chip Succession is especially strong, as hilariously vicious as ever, with the Roy media family imploding amid a flurry of betrayals, back-channel deal-making, and cruel manipulations. [10 - 23 Apr 2023, p.6]
