Ending Succession: Does Season 4 Have Answers To Our Questions?
When the show has "success" in its name, it must be a good omen.
Succession is one of the few that have the potential to last for seasons. Nevertheless, its season 4 is promised to be the end, as we could see from the trailer HBO has just released.
There seems to be complete concord among the fans of the show. No matter how much they like it, everyone is so pleased to see the wisdom of Succession's creators who have chosen to end the show in its glory, not spinning and dragging it further.
"I don't want this show to end but ending it before it has the chance to falter is the best way to go," one fan confessed in a YouTube comment under the trailer.
In its turn, the trailer has loads of suspense, not a particular cliffhanger, but it still raises questions as to what we will see, and, most importantly, what we'll learn. After all, the last season is supposed to dot all i's and cross all t's. So, what do we have?
The head of the Roy family is well and alright. Logan seems to be back into the saddle, taking back the control over ATN, his media company, and his private life as well as succeeding politically.
His children who have grown used to being in charge and doing business without taking their father's will into consideration are facing a challenge in his face.
Logan's sudden convalescence brings his enemies (and family) closer and forces them to co-operate and complot in the best traditions of "the enemy of my enemy is my friend."
"As soon as as I heard "we partner up with Sandi and Stewie, with Pierce".... GOOSEBUMPS!" was the reaction of another fan in YouTube comments.
Indeed, we have a lot to expect. Succession has managed to intrigue and fascinate us from the very start.
A dark satirical drama, with no characters to sympathize or relate to, it has yet done pretty well at keeping us interested and making us look forward to the next season and the answers those might bring.
The main one still remains: who will prevail?
That, however, we'll know no sooner than March, 26th, when the last season is released.
