Although he has no plans to step aside as the head of Waystar Royco, the international media conglomerate controlled by his family, aging patriarch Logan Roy is contemplating what the future holds. He has lingered in the limelight longer than even he thought he would, and now family members want to run the company as they see fit. Despite a best-laid succession plan, tempers flare over Logan's intentions. Kendall Roy, Logan's eldest son from his second marriage and a division president at the firm, is the heir apparent. As Kendall attempts to solidify his eventual takeover, he and the three other Roy children face a difficult choice as company control and family loyalties collide.

Critics Consensus

Peppering its pathos with acid wit, Succession is a divine comedy of absolute power and dysfunction -- brought to vivid life by a ferocious ensemble.

Read Critics Reviews

Stories of dysfunctional wealth have often been cloaked in soapy storylines and melodrama. These recent series are more serious and substantive.

Craig Mathieson

The Age (Australia)

These privileged adults remain in part children, forever in their father's shadow and trying to make sense of their lives. Succession is bitterly funny and juicy entertainment, but with mercurial assurance it slowly reveals itself as a tragedy.

The Age (Australia)

Oh, it's delicious, this dark soap opera-cum-socio-political satire. Funny, too, and occasionally shocking in its portrayal of the cruelty - both casual and calculated - of the unfathomably rich.

Francesca Faccani

Loud and Clear Reviews

Succession succeeds as a show in its being unapologetically real while taking the form of a niche media tragedy.

Common Sense Media

This dark but very funny series is an American comedy of manners that's as entertaining as Veep or its British predecessor, The Thick of It.

Hey, Have You Seen ...?

I had a blast watching and look forward to continuing in the hopes Armstrong and company won’t just keep laughing at us while we laugh at the nightmarish capitalist monsters he’s created.

É realmente tudo aquilo que falam.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

When you find yourself thinking "this episode might as well be a season finale", the next one tops it.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Such a fresh and interesting show. Had my entire extended family glued to the screen all season, which is hard to do.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

top quality. a difficult show to start but once you start watching you cant take your eyes off whats being unfolded.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Extremely engaging from the very first scene. Usually, when character relationships are built on a lot of fictional history, it takes actors at least a season to get the feel for it. This cast seems to have aced it straight from the beginning, and it makes the show what it is. The brotherly closeness. The "game" that everyone keeps playing. The weird balance of power that everyone simultaneously loves, hates, despises but also can't live without. It's all done extremely well. The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because while the show is awesome, engaging, original, fun to watch and I'd recommend it to all my friends, it's not on the same level (yet) as those who truly deserve five stars; Game of Thrones, Breaking Bad, The Leftovers, etc...

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

The acting sucks, like the actors are over-trained in acting but lack the talent to use the training sparingly. Same with the way they speak - very stuttery/not at all natural. And I just don't like the premise

Rated 1 out of 5 stars
