"I just do what my dad tells me" - Succession 305 Recap

“I just do what my dad tells me”

Well that was the most stressful episode of Succession I’ve ever sat through. Scratch that, I was pacing for most of the episode. At one point I hid behind my couch, curled up, peaking over the cushions through my fingers trying to put as many layers betwe...

"Is he losing his grip? But like, with a question mark at the end." - Succession 304 Recap

Is he losing his grip? But like, with a question mark at the end.

THERE'S TOO MUCH TV - Roundup November 2021

Succession Recap: “The Disruption” is a Masterclass in Humiliation.
