I guess I never started a thread about this show which has been under the radar a bit the first couple of seasons, but is SOOOOOOOOOO good. 

HBO started streaming this for free today, so go watch it.  You won't know WTF kind of show it is until around episode 4/5, so give it a chance.

It's loosely based on the Miurdochs and yeah, it scratches the "I want to see rich people being shitty to each other" itch nicely.

Why don't you try our other games?

Thank you for the chicken.

Seriously, this thread should be at least 10 pages long because you are all watching it. What the fuck is wrong with you that you aren't watching it? it is so within the F13 wheelhouse that is should be titled "Succession: F13 is right"

I've been interested because of the cast, but just haven't been able to get myself pysched up to watch rich people behaving badly when I have so many other things to watch.

Trust us, it's worth it.  You may be tempted to disagree after the first season, but wow the second season is so good.

Third season was amazing.  The finale was incredible.

Peep show but dynasty.

I haven't seen the last one.

But I am at the point where I have no idea if I like this but watch every week regardless and will keep doing so. I think it is the serial incompetence of and meanness toward the non-core characters is where it stretches.

But the kids and Brian Cox are so well done.
