Fall Finales: Succession - Season Four/Series Finale

Succession has made all the TV headlines this week. Stealing the limelight from other HBO series like Barry also concluding for good along with the yet to be renewed, Somebody Somewhere.

Airing from early June, 2018, to this Sunday gone. So over four seasons and 39 episodes, there is no more of the Roy's on Binge. Well at least anymore new Succession. You can stream all four seasons right now! So if you have avoided spoilers till now. WARNING! Spoilers ahead!

In the episode titles With Open Eyes, Kendall scrambles to secure board votes to block the GoJo deal. He and Shiv visit Caroline's estate in Barbados, where Roman is recovering from his wounds. 

Matsson interviews Tom and offers him the CEO position; Greg tips off the siblings that Shiv will not be Matsson's CEO. The siblings then agree to let Kendall take over, forming a voting bloc. 

Upon their return to New York, Shiv learns Tom has been chosen as CEO; the siblings race to sway the board. The board comes to a 6–6 tie over selling to GoJo, with only Shiv's vote left; Shiv, however, has second thoughts about Kendall's competence, and votes in favor of the deal despite Kendall's protests.

Tom is appointed CEO with Shiv by his side; Roman accepts that he and his siblings were never worthy successors; a devastated Kendall contemplates his future. Starring into the ocean.

So the Roy family, the owners of Waystar RoyCo, a global media and entertainment conglomerate, are no longer the most fascinating family on TV.

Loads of people were gushing over this finale. The internet was gushing over this finale. Some even calling it the greatest finale of all time. Even outdoing HBO's Six Feet Under. Still an epic series finale to this day!

With the big episode mid season with patriarch, Logan Roy (Brian Cox) passing on a flight. I thought, how could they top this EPIC, insanely busy episode! It was a truly wild ride.

Also in Succession, Jeremy Strong as Kendall, Kieran Culkin as Roman, and Sarah Snook as Siobhan ("Shiv"), with non direct family members Matthew Macfadyen stars as Tom Wambsgans, Nicholas Braun as Greg Hirsch, Alan Ruck as Connor, & Hiam Abbass as Marcia Roy.

While True Blood's Alexander Skarsgård really stepped up in season four as a main played.

Succession has received (over the four seasons) widespread critical acclaim for its writing, acting, musical score, directing, production values, and examination of its subject matter. 

I have always been a fan of this HBO series. The finale was great, maybe not the best of all time, however this season was truly epic. So many big moments. What on Earth will HBO do without Succession (and to a lesser extent, Barry) on its roster.
