Succession

[Leopold]

Worth noting how Greg originally traipses in as this middle class, uncultured pothead cousin working a dead end job but is later shown to be the heir to a board seat (!!!) and a 250 million dollar fortune. So really, it's not that surprising that once he arrives, he's always around and invited.

Not sure if he has any education or curriculum but breeding and money wise he's fairly equal to the company he's in.

Apparently they shot an alternate ending where Kendall throws himself into the Hudson.

I actually don't think he kills himself. I think he simply goes back to the kids and tries to be functional and takes some low-stakes job - which is as miserable an ending for him as killing himself really.

i though that that was ‘the actor who plays Kendall’* deciding to do that himself and Scott Nicholson having to restrain him.

*for some reason Jeremy Strong insists on not naming Nicholson as playing Colin but refers to him as ‘the actor that plays’ - i find it a bit off - is it part of his method not to remember the names of actors with ‘lesser’ roles?

I feel like JS attempting/improvising literally the last scene of the of such a huge TV moment that was the finale was a bit above his job description, and slightly selfish. The 'sitting on the ground' in the S3 finale really added to the moment without altering the outcome, whereas this move would have been the opposite. It's the filmmakers ending, not his.

There's no way Kendall doesn't kill himself within the year, right?

 

[Hudvar]

I predict a follow-up season in 4-5 years that examines their lives after the sale and reawakens their hunger when Mattsson dies or something.

Presumably they shoot it multiple times and only use the improv if they feel like it?

Yep, the director of the finale (who also directed all of the season finales) basically confirmed this in a recent interview.

 

[memoryland]

What I really love about the final season (especially the second part) is that the show gives us main reasons why Logan didn’t want any of the 3 sibling to be the successors: Kendall is infertile, Shiv is a woman, Roman is an indecisive nihilistic mess.

 

[garax]

probably he’ll just slide back off sobriety. Being Kendall he’ll do that in a fairly extreme way. So I guess it’ll depend how much his body can take.

Alternatively, I like the idea that given the only thing he truly loves is Rap music that what he does is spend quite a lot of money on either making an album with his heroes or starts a Rap label.

One of the Murdochs started Rawkus so precedent

Like that rich person that spent an obscene amount to buy a Wu Tang album.

The Nero and Sporus let's wrestle scene...

The chemistry between Roman and the president candidate guy...

What in the bisexual kingfest is this 3rd season

EDIT: Also Roman's distaste for heterosexual sex and saying if Gerri opened up his head, she'd just find more dicks there? And the whole pissing with Skarsgard scene?

 

[Leopold]

What does Logan mean when he says to Roman: "It's just fucking. If you need to get straigthened out, get straightened out. I don't want to know."

Hadn't he always believed he's a secret cig

Hadn't he always believed he's a secret cig

But is "get straigthened out" like "get conversion therapy" or is it "do whatever you want to do", or is it "I think you're a pervert after Gerrigate so get therapy and resolve this so whatever this is doesn't become a problem for me"?

I think it's deliberately ambigious / open for interpretation. Every single word is so meticulously placed in the dialogue that its surely not a coincidence.

 

[scottdisick94]

Yeah Roman and Kendall being in their flop era is perfect timing for Shiv to be the final winner.

Scream at me saying this x
