Here's Bloomberg's take on Succession - "Game of Thrones for the C-suite"

[Nirish guy]

I’ve “taped” the entire series to watch when I get chance to do a TV veg out Saturday so for those that know how it ends etc can I ask maybe that you don’t do the whole spoiler thing perhaps ( if someone hadn’t already as I purposefully just skimmed over the thread to date just in case ......

Ha and you know you’re cracking on age wise when you have to explain to your BF what “taping” a programme means ! :-)

Describing how it ends would require a very long synopsis of the story to date - essentially the last episode sets the story up for series two. And I've already mentioned the one spoiler in an earlier post

Ah ok, thankfully I missed it so no harm done

This is series one, there will be many more before it ends. It's been described as the Game of Thrones of the boardroom and that's not surprising as it's made by the same company HBO. It uses many of the same chatacteristics as GoT. I've watched 8 episodes so far and the only reason I haven't finished it is because I'm saving it for a bit.

Is it safe to resume the discussion? If so, for those who read The New Yorker magazine there's a cracking review of the entire first series in this week's edition just out (2 September)

Those of us who enjoyed season 1 of Succession may be pleased to learn that series 2 begins next month. Sadly there will be no series 2 of Press which is sad news indeed for afficionados of newspapers, such as gerefan2

Is there anyone in the Milky Way galaxy (or beyond) who cannot stand 'Game of Thrones'? There doesn't seem to be.
My all time favourite series is 'Upstairs Downstairs' and Kenneth Clark's 'Civilisation'. I'm 73, but not a Brit. Also. I don't namedrop hifalutin magazines for points any more.

I’m with you Smiles - never watched it, never wanted to. I did enjoy a porn version “Gay of Thrones”

My favourite line from the first episode of Series Two: "Smells like the cheesemaker died with his dick in the brie"
