Help, I have Succession feels, as I have not bonded with a telly show like that in awhile. I mean it was a perfect ending. Everything about the show was perfect. Now my post-work couch slump watching will, by definition, be something that's not as good.
(Yes, I recognize the irony of complaining about this the morning after an actual IRL fascist has been elected in Alberta. Please take this as mock whining, because I am but a weak person and need distractions from real problems.)
Anyway hit me with your best memes, hot takes, links to deep dive videos, whatever. There are not enough thinkpieces in the world to fill the gaping hole in my life now.
I'll start: This show is an attack on the entire tradition of Western dramatic narrative in ways that previous Difficult Male Antihero shows attempt but fail at.
