Read our privacy policy “If you are sure you understand everything that is going on,” states the adage known as Mondale’s law, “you are hopelessly confused.” The saying was named for Walter Mondale, former US president Jimmy Carter’s deputy in the White House. His name was also, fittingly, given to the long-forgotten dog shared by Shiv and Tom in Sky Atlantic’s blockbuster drama Succession. “I’m not gonna sit like a c***,” he seethes over a deal with Nan Pierce, “waiting for that old crone.” This is the central McGuffin of the final season of Succession: both parties, the father and his estranged children, are vying for control of the Pierce media brand. Around Logan’s central, malevolent energy, the Roy children rotate like untethered satellites: Kendall still searching for meaning and Roman for purpose.
