#97: SUCCESSION
Manage episode 212096127 series 1132960
Succession.
Elgin and Paul chat about #SuccessionHBO:
HBO’s Succession, created by Jesse Armstrong (with executive producers Will Ferrell and Adam McKay, among others) and starring Brian Cox, Jeremy Strong, Alan Ruck, Kieran Culkin, Sarah Snook, and Hiam Abbass as the Roys — a rich, powerful New York family that runs a global media empire.
Does this latest prestige drama from HBO say anything new about privilege and dysfunctional family life, especially in our present age, with the Trumps and Murdochs taking center stage?Already deemed successful enough, Succession has been renewed for a second season. But we question whether that decision was a wise move, given all the choices the creatives have made thus far (including the character development and the documentary shooting style).
