Succession

[frequent]

I'm enjoying the HBO drama Succession right now. The sex side of it is particularly interesting. Apart from masturbation being a common theme, there was last week's Bucks Party and this week's Wedding. Last week the groom-to-be boasted that he'd been sucked off by a woman at the nightclub who had then french kissed him, inserting his own semen into his mouth, which he had swallowed. Vaguely reminiscent of felching, I suppose. In this week's episode the groom's brother-in-law arrives for the wedding house party intentionally bringing as his guest the woman who had sucked off the groom-to-be. All good clean fun, and Happy Families to boot

Moses, or at least his hopeless "AI" extension, may be buying himself some trouble here!

I see Moses "liked" my post so much that he deleted the problem information from both posts with no acknowledgement - at least some of the other moderators do indicate what they have done and why when deleting parts or all of a post, particularly when it will make a reply post meaningless

Upon Frequents recommendation I've started watching this show and I have to say it crackles. Dialogue of a level not seen since The West Wing.

Amazon Prime hosts the Russian-produced series (two so far) about Catherine the Great; I'm now watching the second series. Succession has nothing on the sex lives of the Romanovs, and the Russian court generally. Equally, the general ambience gives great credibility to the satirical film The Death of Stalin. The English subtitles (the original dialogue is Russian) are a wonder to behold. The only homosexual character so far is Frederick the Great

On your recommendation I'm watching the first series. I'm on episode 4 and it's very good.

However, the actor playing (the future) Peter III is the spitting image of a young Gene Wilder, and I find that highly distracting - so much so that every 10 minutes I'm expecting him to announce his name is Froderick Fronkensteen

I'm very taken with the actor who plays the future Czar Paul I in the second series. Straight out of the Belami studio IMHO

My favourite line from the final episode of Succession in this series, about monogamy: "box set death march"

The Death of Stalin is screamingly good fun. Simon Russell Beale as Beria steals the show from a stellar cast.
