Succession- should I try again? Is it really good?

[Coulddomore]

I have watched (most) of series 1. I say “most” because I kept falling asleep and then gave up. Probably a year or more ago. I have a vague idea of who’s who but don’t want to rewatch 1. Wondering if I will be clueless going in to season 2. And if i fell asleep because bored.
Is it really as good as people say?!

I couldn't get into it at all. Extended family were raving about it and I thought itwas really meh. Just didn't gel with me at all and I normally love stuff like that.

I’m the same. I’m looking for something to really get in to. Struggling to find a good series.

I got to episode 4 of the first series and gave up. Then got a firm lecture from my brother and pushed through and I did love it in the end.

Succession is amazing but takes a while to get going.

Have you watched The Americans on Disney plus with Keri Russell and Matthew Rhys? I watched it when I needed to get into a series.

If you don’t get it, you don’t get it. I find it hilarious because I know people like this and one of the cast members is someone I’m connected with so their performance is hilarious. But if you don’t get it you don’t get it.

It definitely gets better!

Came on to recommend The Americans! I was hooked within the first five or so minutes of the first episode. One of my all-time favourite series, definitely one I couldn't wait to watch every evening.

'If you don’t get it, you don’t get it'

I agree. Some shows grow on you after a few episodes, but I would say that if you don't immediately get Succession, it's not for you
