I was going to make a joke down in the comments saying "where is part 3?"

The scene in which Kendall's son wanted his grandfather to read him toddler books forced Logan to accept that he has no male heir apparent, so he looked outside the family. Logan didn't want children; he wanted sharks that would attack and defend his true love, Waystar/Royco. Logan found what he wanted his children to be in Matsson.

One of the things that I love most about this show is Connor Roy, and the fact it's subtly implied a few times that he was interested in politics at a young age.

I read that Mark Mylod (the director) didn’t tell Jeremy Strong that the waiting staff would be taking out the trash in that scene so he relied on Strong working off that impulse. Just goes to show you how great these actors are and how in sync they are with the directors & writers. Love this show and your videos!!

I don’t think you can assume that Tom is dismissing his marriage like Shiv did. One reason he betrayed shiv could be to get her to respect him because he still loves her, and by putting himself in a more powerful position it’s the only way to get positive attention from her

No, Tom loves his Sporus more. He’s already castrating Greg for marriage 🤣 But in all seriousness. In Logan’s “game”, the only love anyone has is for power over Royco. It’s painted well when Tom is upset over his wife getting offered CEO and when he constantly asks Shiv “but what’s in it for me”. Tom does truly love Shiv but realizes that Shiv loves power for herself more. Shiv even ironically admits that she doesn’t love Tom and Tom only loves her because she’s way more powerful than him. The show beautifully paints how greed can twist people into sacrificing family/love for power. It’s fucked.

I don't agree with the video's take that he "dismissed" his marriage or that he did it to get respect from her. Tom seems to genuinely love Shiv and wants the kind of happy healthy white picket fence marriage that his parents probably had, in conjunction with fulfilling his own ambitions. But he's been shown again and again that his wife doesn't love or respect him, will neglect him at every turn, and would likely stab him in the back if she had to. So Tom just got there first. He chose power over love because it was the only option truly open to him - for me his decision was as justified as Kendall turning on Logan in the S2 finale (for very similar reasons). The thing is Shiv probably will give him more positive attention now because her understanding of love has always been informed by unhealthy power dynamics.

Lester was a man. And when a man dies, it is sad. All of us will die one day. In this case, it is Lester who has done so.

I did not pick up on the outside counsel that Tom called being the same lawyer that Tom coordinated with to reopen the divorce settlement. Good deep cut there.

Great analysis. I liked your point about Roman complementing Matsson’s place but Logan stating he wasn’t going to waste time complimenting his place. The irony being stating that is as much a waste of time as saying you have a nice place.

You are correct, But it also cuts out any other small talk or pleasantries.

This is like my first comment on KZread in 10 years. And I just have to say- what an amazing piece of review. This show, in my opinion, is a piece of art and you explaining it in bits just goes to show how amazing it is. I can hear hundreds of hours you talking about the show. :-)

Wow! I did not catch Logan mentioning Rex Hendon in the season ending and I had previously wondered what Tom making that call was about or led to. Amazing analysis as always

he would have been loyal to Shiv if shiv has ever given him a modicum of respect. she degraded their relationship and he made the right call to be loyal to those who are actually loyal to him. unfortunately, not his wife.

Another amazing analysis, my guy. Great vids. I’m calling it now. I bet Kendall sacrifices himself to dethrone the mad king by confessing for the crime and linking his dad in with the cover up. Seems like a poetic and symbolic way to end his character arch.

Would be great. But, Kendall has nothing but his word. Logan will ensure Kendall's word is viewed as that of an immature, drug addicted son trying to hurt his father again just because he is unhappy with a business decision. Logan has all the advantages when dealing with his children. Discrediting any of them is easy, because they are all horrible people, thanks mostly to him, and their mother, who emerged this season as equal to Logan in being a horrible parent.

After re-watching the first two seasons, the great reality that drives this show is Logan Roy is a business genius struggling with the fact that he raised four children who are woefully incompetent at business. He constantly tests them - often cruelly- and almost every time they fail. In all the big meetings, they are all paralyzed to voice an opinion for fear of disappointing their father.

Do you think you can do breakdowns of each main character? Would be awesome

The details you notice threading throughout the seasons of parallel, i.e.: childhood to adulthood; Tom and Logan’s story of origin narrative; and Shiv and Tom’s relationship paradigm mimicking Tom’s and Greg’s brings more depth of perspective to this show.

These analysis videos really bring a new love for this show and the plot, the fact that there are so many things right under our nose is insane! The fact that you break it down so brilliantly is amazing

Yes, talk about Succession more. It's the best show on TV.

Thanks for netting all the details! There were some things I had forgotten that were causing confusion as to where Shiv fit in to the battle. This show is brilliant... I need to watch it again before the 4th season, unlike my normal habit of waiting the entire year for a new season and expecting to remember all the relevant details :/

Man season 4 will be such a bomb. What the Roy siblings lacked was unity. It seems like now they have it. Will be interesting to see how the character develops now.

You have a very good eye for such subtle references, would definitely watch more succession content. I hope next season doesn’t take years to come out.

Your analysis and breakdown of the series is precise, and broken down with acute detailed clips. You convey the show brilliantly. Love to see more...

We need another video these have been helping me analyze the show a lot better!

Amazing video again. I love Succession, and these in depth analysis so I’d love more Succession stuff. Subbed. Honestly some of the stuff you said here blew my mind, you really have a knack for this, great job!

Your videos are so well done and you speak so eloquently. And you don’t do dumb jokes thank you so much for that. You really get to the meat of the matter.

I still think Logan loves Kendall, the way he was reading story book to his grandson, felt like he really loved his son. The way he was asking for him at the time of Panic room scene also make sure that he cares for him. Logan was also concerned about his company, as he should be . In all fairness he just wanted his successor who can lead his empire with all full frontal, because there are people and companies who are waiting for them to make one single mistake. After seeing Mattson, he was bit depressed because he knew that none of his kids will be able to match Mattson’s intelligence and business sense. and therefore they are not ready to face the real world.

Your analyses of Succession are great! Keep 'em coming!

You have incredible observation skills, I would honestly be happy to hear your analysis of every single episode. Please share more. Thank you

Keep going, I’m loving the deep dives that you’re doing.

You’re amazing! Best analysis ever! Please keep going with this show! Thank you!

gosh we need more of the breakdowns lol i know the plot but hearing other explaining it so well is def a joy

Great videos on Succession, the first prompted me to start a re-watch of the show and now i'm partway thru. Initially I loved Succession, then a few things had me sort of back off from it, but then season 3 eventually drew me back in. I think the humor sometimes comes on strong and causes me to miss some things, but a re-watch of it has been very worthwhile so far, and is making me appreciate it much more. And understand things better. I'll definitely watch another video of Succession if you make one. Gonna be a long wait for season 4.

This video makes me eager to watch it all over again. Great work

This was incredible please do more!

I demand more. You're really good in these analysis.

I like to think of the succession question as a secondary theme, if not a red herring, serving as a mere frosting on top of the emotionnal and psychological core of the show. Kind of what hacking, capitalism and conspiracies were to Mr Robot, which basically had a 4 episodes long epilogue to conclude the characters arcs and actual main topics of the show. As there is no coming back into the CEO race, and considering there is only one season left, we can't expect many turns of events, but mostly linear character development. So I can see the whole thing ending quite openly with the Roy siblings having enough and finally preparing their exit. In the end they will renounce having anything to do with Logan, and begin to deal with their own issues on their own terms (Roman might have the hardest time with this, which would be super interesting). All of that in parallel with a bleak commentary on the business side, with Tom and Greg engaging in long-term careers only to eventually become the new Frank and Gerri of Gojo-Waystar-Royco. That or they won't even be taken seriously by Mattson as they will now be in competition with outsiders for their positions. Or maybe Tom will step out after Shiv's redemption, or Greg will backstab him, who knows, who cares. In the end what happens to Logan and who he chooses to succeed him will probably not matter either considering Mattson is about to eat him alive, alongside his legacy, and he clearly doesn't give a damn about any Roy, Wambsgans or Hirsch. So the Roy kids going to therapy would probably be the best part. Anyway that's my "happy" ending proposition In the bad ending everyone is miserable, maybe someone dies, and Mattson still wins

The "who will be CEO" question is simply a jumping off point. The heart of show lies in the dynamics between the characters and the themes around power, greed and capitalism. The Tom betrayal and Mattson entering the scene add more intrigue to the business plots. Though it's more interesting to consider how the shakeups at the company will impact the family. I think who takes the throne is ultimately sort of irrelevent.

Love these videos Bryce .... Thanks so much on the very detailed and thought provoking analysis. I have only watched these 3 seasons once but my takeis that you are way over-estimating Tom ...and many others are as well. But I could be very wrong here and he might be Waystar's new shark. I still see him as a simple opportunist. I am going to re-watch all the shows andsee if I still feel this way. IMO the one to watch out for is Roman (as in Roman emperor).

I can’t get enough of this show.

I don’t think Tom sees Shiv as expendable. He loves/loved her, but she just keeps breaking him down and treating him like shit and he is slowly beginning to stand up for himself and do what’s best for him

Great Job!

Greg doesn't get talked about enough he's just watching everyone while he figures out which side is the right side

Shiv going- walking on mum & dad F'ng us . Best line ever

So good. Ty

I love the breakdown you did with Kendall. Spot on! Disagree on Tom however. He actually truly loves Shiv unlike Logan but Shiv has emasculated him and belittled him so much he is full of resentment. It was only a matter of time before he started acting out passive aggressively. Shiv should have seen this coming.

the last scene where tom lays his hands on shiv was allegedly improv'd, so might be a case of unintentional symbolism.

Please, please, please do a full analysis of all of the romantic relationships in Succession. Couple by couple.
