Same.

He is the youngest (like logan's younger sister) and is clearly in meltdown mode. But, this season they seem to have a new sibling come out on top at the end of each episode. Roman was flying high on the election night episode and then crashed and burned in the very next episode. So, Kendall could just as easily crash and burn and commit suicide in the finale. He has already had one suicide attempt in this series.

I also thought the whole time until recently that Roman was the youngest, but Shiv is the youngest.

Oh snap! Ok then maybe shiv does from a pregnancy complication brought on by the stress of her brothers screwing her over for CEO. It’s a stretch but it would be a Rose parallel!

Finale prediction: Ken is going to end up on top. They have made him more competent, more ruthless, the last couple episodes. I think something will happen to either Roman or Shiv, he will completely backstab the other, and he is already having major family issues. Basically, they will all take their place in a new version of Logan Roy’s life.

Was just coming to post this! There have been a few interviews with this composer regarding the Succession score. So interesting.

Will definitely read this, thanks! I love how the theme changes with the circumstances--in Italy it was languid, for the funeral it went to a minor key, et cetera.

Was it me or did the score sound off at the funeral? It was too upbeat or something for the occasion. I haven’t been to a lot of funerals but the ones I’ve been to had much more somber music.

Ha. If Gerry becomes CEO!!

Or cousin Greg…

So many calling it for Greg:

https://www.theringer.com/platform/amp/succession/2023/5/24/23734253/succession-series-finale-cousin-greg-waystar

It would be such an excellent scene if we saw Greg sitting at a huge executive desk, berating someone mercilessly - who then turned out to be Tom.

I am team Not Greg. I have seen the Greg idea compared to making Bran Stark the King of Westeros. Gonna be a nope from me dawg.
