Television’s best worst family prepares itself for civil war again in the new season of HBO’s Succession.
If it is to be said, so it be, so it is – after a two-year hiatus, “Succession” is finally back! Backstabbery and betrayal lurk beneath every gilded surface in the world of the Roys – a family as dysfunctional as any other, but with a media empire, billions of dollars and several helicopters at their disposal. Nobody is ever quite sure where they stand with unscrutable patriarch Logan (Brian Cox) – least of all, his four children, Shiv (Sarah Snook), Kendall (Jeremy Strong), Roman (Kieran Culkin) and Connor (Alan Ruck). The critically-acclaimed drama’s Season 2 finale had viewers on the edge of their seats when Kendall made a serious move against his father. The cliffhanger ending left everyone’s fates up in the air – and opened the door for a major power shakeup in Season 3.
