    Really? I thought the "official" reviews from avclub and others were great? Just people in general?

  • gotcha - I mean...I feel like people are wishing for an ending that wasn't in the spirit of the show. The ending made sense to me *shrugs*

    I really don't know what they were hoping for. no details, just "that ending was the worst in the history of tv". like, WUT?

    super rich dysfunctional entitled american family can't get out of their own way. and they're SAD that they just came into billions of dollars. LOL. so absurd, but so right on the nose.

    That's what I kept saying!!  Look at how upset they are to be billionaires!  Crazy but I guess money doesn't matter when you're just addicted to the power.  Great finale and great series.  Glad they ended it now and they didn't stretch it out too long like so many other shows do.

    I think they could have stretched it out a bit had Logan lived. But the other characters couldn't carry the show for much longer than they did. So, because Logan dies, great timing to end it.

    I haven't started this series yet...hoping I like it. It will be nice to be able to watch something start to finish without having to wait a year between seasons.

    haven't see Sopranos or the Wire. hard to beat Breaking Bad. I consider that to be the best show ever (that I've seen). 

    I loved Succession. The last season was good, but that may have been due to just anticipating the end. It was still good, but hard to judge. The first 3 seasons were fantastic. The acting, the writing. All of it.
