Ah yes, I can see where we're both coming from with the two different definitions.
20.11.2025 15:46 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Not sure I agree with that overall assessment either. Curious to know what you think would have made the series better or if you have an alternative series in mind that better tackles it?
20.11.2025 12:59 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Right?? Highly recommend listening to the writers / creator eps of the HBO Succession Podcast, they go into great lengths on discussing their process of writing these wild, terrible, hateable and outrageous characters.
20.11.2025 12:50 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0But the writers are hugely aware that these aren't protagonists; they're not glorifying them
20.11.2025 12:45 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 2 ๐ 0Reminding me straight away of how they're in a billion-dollar negotiation with a company, and they're told they may have to get rid of their personal jets, and they're like "not the PJs!". A otal disconnect from any reality or actual consequence. These aren't protagonists, they're 100% assholes.
20.11.2025 12:43 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0If anything, they're all antagonists whom we can see that we should stay clear of and display how immense access to power / monopolised power is in our society. Some traits people may empathise with but overall they're truly horrible, unlikeable people and portrayed as such
20.11.2025 12:37 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I don't think I agree with that - Succession isn't framing them as protagonists or heroes, they're framing them as incredibly unstable, messed up, deeply flawed white people who don't know anything but power. They're not people we're meant to empathise with.

It's almost as if we're trying to deliver a stand-up routine loaded with deadpan zingers.

The mythological figure in Irish, Scottish, and Manx tradition who summons winter, and is associated with storms, reshaping the landscape, and horned beasts like deer. She defies convention and is a force for regeneration.

(It is wild, though, that the dialects of the language are so isolated despite the relatively short distance that I didn't even know they call it Gaelic in Ulster)
It's hardcore! But in a good way
