Meanwhile, while I am a huge fan of Adam McKay’s semi serious films, I am not really on board with Succession. The last two episodes of season 3 were mildly entertaining, but the series overall to me is only slightly above average. It reads like an SNL “Satire” sketch which simply has an actor in make up and repeat almost verbatim some of the more absurd things a real public figure (Chris Cuomo, Brett Kavanaugh, Sean Spicer, etc). It can be entertaining (I really liked Matt Damon) but it is hardly deep or cutting satire.
The people in Succession are so horrible that I find it difficult to care even a little about what happens to any of them.
