if I think too much about the transition in the script between “the most anger he’s ever expressed to his father” and Kendall immediately playfully hitting Roman like “something from childhood” I will just vaporize from grief

I’m actually crying watching that scene in succession when Logan dies which is wild considering I genuinely hate every single person involved in that scene to some extent

shiv and roman instantly forgiving their father while kendall and connor dont is such a good reflection of their relationship. roman always wanted his fathers attention and wouldve done anything for it. logan loved shiv as a daughter but belittled her as a successor so even tho he fucked them over at the very end she was able to separate logan the father from logan the businessman
connor realised his father never even intended on coming for his wedding while he went out of his way to go to shivs. he never gave a fuck about him. so neither did connor
and kendall. the heir. logan the businessman and logan the father were one and the same. he never treated kendall as anything but a successor -- a lousy one at that. a sharp contrast to shiv, whom logan considered his other major option of the other 3. kendall loved him. but he couldnt forgive him

Please why is no one talking about Kerry 100% murdering Logan. And she definitely did it with those pills she gives him. Watch, they’re gonna reveal that right before his death he like put her in his will or something👀

I can’t stop thinking about the fact that Roman wasn’t with him because he wouldn’t allow himself to have the same fatal flaw as his father (putting the business above his family) and logan would have survived if he would have put his family above the business for once and gone to connors wedding

I know So Much Else happened in episode 3, but I want to take a moment to appreciate how sweet Willa's mom was?? Obviously she's aware of what their situation is, but she's still so supportive and encouraging to Willa -- "It's like you're a princess in a film" and "He'll look after you" -- and she's so ready to play along with Connor being silly and talking about Scrooge (lol). And I know there's an element there of showing Connor's age in comparison to Willa's mom's -- "Look at all the young people" said as a way to relate -- but I can't help but thinking about how Willa's mom clearly loves Connor and is so happy and excited to accept him into their family. And now after all these years Connor finally has a mom again.

the way Roman makes himself small and dissolves into childlike body language when Kendall’s on the phone getting the bad news but when Shiv comes in and completely breaks down, he encourages her to step away and say something to Logan on the phone in case he can hear it and then when she cries more he approaches her and physically comforts her and my heart hurts at thinking about how Roman is devastated but finds fragile strength to get it together to take care of Shiv :( fuuuuuuck

This really was Connor's Wedding episode. One could argue that Succession s4e3 was this named to cover up the big plot point ™, but I think that would be to ignore all the Connor insight we got in such a short space of time.
Everything about the Victoria Sponge cake and his mother? What an alone little child he must have been.
The "He never liked me. I never got to make him proud of me."? Such an earnest first reaction and yet still so self hating and blaming.
His candid talk with Willa? I hate the power dynamics and coercion in their relationship but he honestly opened up to her and allowed her to do the same to an extent.
His siblings forgetting him even when his absence send obvious? Where was Connor's goodbye??!?
God, throughout the seasons he always seemed like a stunted child in just a slightly more naive way than the others, but now?
Now I see Connor as the stunted first victim of a child who was forever trying to be a father for his siblings, despite fatherhood never being modelled for him.

What's so fascinating about Logan Roy dying, isn't that he was the main character and now he's gone. It's not the fact that he died in such a critical moment.
It's the fact that we really experienced his death just like his children. No warning, no big scene where we saw him being sick and then collapsing on the floor, nothing.
Just one fucking phone call saying "Logan's dying."
Absolutely brilliant. Absolutely game changer.
That's how you kill off a character.
