Review of Succession

Succession (2018–2023)
7/10
Wealth, Betrayal, and the Modern Family Saga
28 January 2024
I recently watched the long-running series "Succession." It unravels the intricate web of a family dynasty led by billionaires who amass their wealth through a powerful media empire. As the aging patriarch grapples with his twilight years, his children engage in cutthroat competition, revealing that immense wealth cannot shield them from the destructive forces of rivalry.

In this family, the corporate boardroom becomes an arena for modern betrayal and crime, all for the pursuit of a larger share of the family fortune. Unlike other shows where such power dynamics are veiled behind the facade of royalty, "Succession" boldly exposes the moral crisis within the affluent, where abundant riches fail to prevent the ethical decay among siblings.

This four-season series lays bare the moral crisis of the wealthy, unveiling the manipulative media strategies and unethical dealings while challenging the notion that superior genes are a divine gift.
