Anyone excited for the final season of Succession? *Spoiler alert*

Tom also told him to delete a folder on his computer when he called Greg to tell him Logan had died. We never saw him actually do it though, don't think we are supposed to know what was in it either

I think Greg still has some info / evidence on them all. He's a bit more savvy than he makes out and I think when it comes down to it he could be ruthless, because he doesn't really care about any of them really.

Ooh it’s a goody this week! See you all after 10pm to discuss…

Ooh, can't wait to watch! See you all later.

Another SUPERB episode! 🤩Loved all of it

Just wow

That was a great episode!

In order to wrap it up in 4 episodes I think they’re going to be jammed packed with storylines.

the tension is going to be unbearable.

Hmm … I maybe didn’t love this episode as much as some - apart from one thing. Loving the reviews though.

This one - more recap than review - really, really gets it. SPOILERS. DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVEN’T WATCHED 4,6.

'That was a great episode!'

I think I say that every week 😊

I thought this week was great. Some DARK stuff going on. I go back and forth on who is the most brilliant actor in the show but I keep coming back to Jeremy Strong. He is just MAGNIFICENT in this role. I believe in his character every single moment, maddening and ridiculous as he is. Thought he was even more brilliant than usual this week

It's just brilliant.

I’ve got Covid so watched it at 2am when I couldn’t sleep due to coughing. But I found it really hard to follow, I’m going to read the review MayIDestroyYou has kindly mentioned and will see if that and a further rewatch will help me back on the Succession rollercoaster.

@Mydoghealsmyheart , that review is great.

i know many people (including myself) that watch the show with subtitules, it especially helps with Roman’s one liners which he usually sort of mutters under his breath or can go unnoticed when they’re all speaking over each other.

Yes, I use subtitles too. They often talk fast and it’s important to catch everything they’re saying as you can’t risk missing vital info! I’ve just read the review, it’s great and now I’m ready to rewatch episode 6! I just don’t want it all to end in 4 more episodes!

I'm worried about Roman.

I agree Jeremy Strong was just fantastic in that episode. I am also enjoying Karl not holding back now Logan has gone.

Living+ sounds like an aloe-based MLM though.

Read an interesting comment about titles of last 3 season finales being lines from a poem called dream song 29 by John Berryman. So a line from there not yet used could give a clue to the ending!

I think this recap gets something wrong. Shiv said she had an appointment she couldn't move and went off to the conference room. Soon after Tom came in, her phone rang and she covered it up. I assumed that it was a call from her gynaecologist and so the "I have to book in time to cry" was a lie to cover that. Anyone else?

Also: she is now 21 weeks pregnant. We saw Tom's hand linger in on her waist and then they had sex. He must know, surely?

I don't think Shiv is 21 weeks pregnant. Two days ago, her obstetrician said she wouldn't need to see her again until the 20 week scan. She's only just had the results of her anomaly scan, which can be done from about 14 weeks.

That said, I'm unclear if yesterday's episode only covered one day, given some scenes were in the dark and others daylight. There was definitely one night in it as the house on stage was built for 'tomorrow'. But I think we're still less than a week after Logan died.

I agree, the appointment was a phone call - her phone rang when Tom came in and she rejected it so he wouldn't see.

Kendall said something along the lines of the last few days being hard during his speech so I think we're still within a week of Logan's death. There's been no funeral yet

I was still wearing my normal jeans until around 5 months preggo with my first (different story with the second).

Apart from mean Karl I found yesterday's episode really boring.

I thought it was the alarm/calendar reminder tone that rang rather than a call?

That wasn’t a great one for me

I only really liked the Karl bit, he was brilliant

The rest I found a bit painful, and the Shiv / Tom stuff isn’t that good

I think this recap gets something wrong. Shiv said she had an appointment she couldn't move and went off to the conference room. Soon after Tom came in, her phone rang and she covered it up. I assumed that it was a call from her gynaecologist and so the "I have to book in time to cry" was a lie to cover that. Anyone else?

That was certainly the implication they threw us, @escapingthecity - so I imagine everyone watching thought it must be bad news about her pregnancy. We just don’t know!

Shiv and Tom actually talking was the best of this episode for me. They’re such different human beings; Tom completely clear eyed about his own emotions and motivations - and having to get through every single day carrying that self awareness as a burden, and Shiv completely astonished if she ever feels anything at all. She doesn’t seem to feel emotion should be part of her as a person.

If it was upsetting pregnancy news it would be incredibly sad that she ‘just’ carried on with her day and confided in no one. So I’d much rather what appeared to be a lie about scheduled grieving were actually the truth.

But it’s so, so fascinating that Tom’s betrayal and willingness to acknowledge it is the thing that has finally made her respect him.

Did anybody else wonder for a second if Ken was going to walk off into the sea and end it all?…
