Is 'Succession' Plotting Its End?
Huff PostSad Kendall in Sunday night's episode of HBO's "Succession." Graeme Hunter/HBO Warning: this story contains spoilers for Sunday night’s episode of HBO’s “Succession,” “Chiantishire.” Like the playlist at Kendall Roy’s train wreck of a 40th birthday party, this season of HBO’s “Succession” has produced “all bangers, all the time.” There was a tense showdown over an FBI raid. That’s “Succession.” And the episode’s ominous cliffhanger — Kendall floating facedown in a pool — portends a grim season finale next week. By now, we know the idea of anyone actually succeeding patriarch Logan Roy at the helm of the family’s media conglomerate Waystar Royco — the initial premise of the show — is an illusion. Throughout Season 2, as mounting scandals reveal decades of serial sexual abuse and cover-ups at the company, Logan decides Kendall must be the “blood sacrifice.” Still wracked with guilt about the car accident, Kendall has no choice but to take the fall, knowing that if he doesn’t, Logan won’t protect him anymore.
