Who would’ve thought this show is a comedic gold?

There are many reasons to love Succession: the clever setup, the amazingly talented cast, and the perfect family drama hidden between the business battles.

Every character on the show is as bad as they are good, and viewers are left rooting for one of the few spoiled billionaire kids to get more power and money from their abusive father.

Sounds like there's not much room for humor in a show like this, but Succession has had some comedy gems in its 4 seasons of existence. What makes it even better is that half of them were unintentional.

Here are 5 Succession moments that made viewers smile, even when they weren't supposed to be funny.

Roman's Laughter Roast

Logan was pretty tough with all the roasts for his kids, but this one might be the funniest. The way he effortlessly dropped his "We didn't get you from a hyena farm" line made the audience laugh a lot louder and a lot worse than Roman himself could ever do.

The Eldest Boy

The whole scene is very passionate and dramatic and shows a lot of tension between all the siblings, but Kendall's comment about being the oldest boy, when he clearly isn't, made many people burst out laughing.

Sorry, Connor, you have been dismissed from the Roy sibling chaos once again.

What Greg Wants, Greg Must Have

If there was one thing Logan Roy could do like no other, it was make a scene out of nothing.

To this day, many fans consider this interaction between him and Greg to be the funniest in the series. The Coca-Cola request, with an emphasis on the word "Coca-Cola," has stuck with viewers even as they order their own drinks.

Kendall's Rabbit Gets Sick

"If he can do people, he can do rabbits, right? Well, at least that was Kendall's thought when she got the call that Roy's rabbit had eaten a little too much bagel. Jess's silent judgment in the background just adds to the comedy.

Karl Held Hostage

Although half the attention was on Roman, who was very entertained by the idea of someone marrying Gerri, something about Karl calmly announcing his panic attack was hilarious to watch.

Full disclosure, we would not suggest using panic attacks to avoid awkward conversations like this.
