HBO\u2019s Succession<\/em> returned this past Sunday, coming out of the gate strong in the premiere episode of this sophomore season. Written by showrunner Jesse Armstrong and directed by Executive Producer Mark Mylod (Game of Thrones<\/em><\/a>, Entourage<\/em>), Succession<\/em> hit on many of the beats that made the first season such a pleasure to watch, all while feeling fresh and new. There was no rehashing or time wasted. Succession<\/em> has a story to tell and that story largely revolves around Kendall.<\/p>\n

\u201dYou\u2019re just a sex robot for Dad to fuck.\u201d Roman wasn\u2019t wrong in this assessment of his older brother Kendall\u2019s life currently. While Kendall might not literally be a robot used for his father\u2019s sexual pleasure, he is most certainly at the mercy of the patriarch of the Roy family. The episode opened with Kendall, still in Europe and not only dealing with the guilt from killing the waiter in the Season 1 finale but also detoxing from falling off the wagon hard. This beaten-down Kendall might be a sight we have to become accustomed to for a while.<\/p>\n

One thing this episode made clear was that Kendall\u2019s attempted coup at his father\u2019s business was a damn good one. Had Kendall not wrecked that car, there\u2019s a strong likelihood that he and his partners (including the amazing Stewy) would\u2019ve toppled the media king. Logan knows this and is reeling in this episode, all while trying to portray his trademark confidence. Being the man that he is, Logan is going to take the leverage he has over Kendall and exploit it to the fullest. (Insert sex robot jokes here.)<\/p>\n

Kendall is broken. The concerns over the death of the waiter may be eased some when one of Logan\u2019s fixers reassures him that there\u2019s no evidence implicating him in the young man\u2019s death but Kendall\u2019s issues run deeper. He spent all of the first season trying to elevate himself to be the one to slay the king. His demons derailed his plans and now he\u2019s indebted to his father, and given what his father knows, that leverage is lifelong. The guilt, the shame, the disappointment in himself, not to mention the physical detox have all left Kendall a shell of himself, only living to carry out Logan Roy\u2019s wishes. Logan paraded Kendall out on TV with his tail between his legs and later sent him to deliver a message to his former partners: a message that Logan would rather die than surrender.<\/p>\n

\"Kendall
Kendall is broken. Can he fix himself?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

A running story in this episode was Logan considering selling the company after his lawyer advised him to. In one of the best scenes of the episode, Logan brought the family to their summer home, which was complete with dead animals in the walls, causing a terrible odor and a trademark Logan outburst, which showed the audience that no matter how vulnerable he is, he\u2019s stubborn and not done fighting.<\/p>\n

Watching Logan ask his four children if they thought he should sell or not, with the caveat that if he didn\u2019t sell he would have to name a successor, was as good as this show gets. The politicking between the siblings and their father really is a thing of beauty and a lesser show could not pull this off. It would be easy to venture into cheesy territory with the family power struggle but this cast and Jesse Armstrong\u2019s writing make this dynamic truly captivating television.<\/p>\n

After a failed full-family conversation, Logan saw Roman and then Shiv privately. While we didn\u2019t see the outcome of Roman\u2019s conversation, we did see Logan tell Shiv that she was the one. The two discussed a plan to bring her out of the world of politics and fast-track her to the top of the company. While on some levels this does make sense\u2014this is Succession<\/em> after all\u2014is Logan playing his kids against each other or does he really see Shiv as the best bet to run the business after he\u2019s gone? Either way, there\u2019s bound to be a lot of moves left to be made in this chess game.<\/p>\n

\"Shiv
Let the games begin between father and daughter.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

In addition to the excellent family drama we saw, in true Succession<\/em> fashion this episode was hysterical<\/a>. Roman, a character that could easily veer into overplayed territory, had more one-liners than I could possibly write down, including telling his family that their dad was dying of cancer with a completely straight face. \u201cC\u2019mon, it\u2019s funny, Dad\u2019s dying of cancer.\u201d Few shows and characters can pull off the style of humor that Roman has, but damn, he kills every line given to him.<\/p>\n

Shiv and Tom\u2019s honeymoon was also comedy gold: two people who did not want to be on a boat together, constantly checking their phones, looking for any reason to go home. Last season we saw Tom come to understand that their marriage would never be one of love; he almost seemed to embrace that here, pushing his new bride to get him a more desirable position at the company while the family was at the summer house. Watching Shiv avoid telling her husband the full truth about her conversation with her father only richened the pot. Nobody is safe from the games this family plays with each other.<\/p>\n

Cousin Greg made great use of his small amount of screen time, screwing up a drug deal for Kendall. Greg bought the ridiculously rich Kendall cocaine from the park, giving Kendall plenty of ammo to belittle Greg. That was the only scene of the episode in which Kendall had a spark of life to him. Maybe it was the coke or maybe it was the chance to trash-talk Greg, asking him if the street dealer gave him a receipt for the worst coke he\u2019d ever had in his life. If I have one wish for this season, it\u2019s more Greg.<\/p>\n

The table has been set for what should be a great season of television. I\u2019m really looking forward to the dynamic between Shiv and Logan this year. Is she really the chosen one? What does a potential fallout between the two of them look like? How does Roman play into this? There\u2019s no way he\u2019s going to go down quietly once he finds out about Shiv\u2019s deal with their father (although it’s possible that Roman also has a deal with him, you never know). I also have this sneaking suspicion that Tom is going to wind up becoming an adversary of his wife, though whether it\u2019s on purpose or by accident remains to be seen.<\/p>\n

Then, of course, there\u2019s Kendall. He can\u2019t get much lower than he already is. What does the rebuilding of Kendall look like? What allies does he have left? What pull does he have anywhere? I can\u2019t help but think of Stewy saying to him that he can play the friend card. Will that offer exist down the line? Despite his predicament, one way or another Kendall has to crawl out of the hole he\u2019s in, and whether it\u2019s by his father\u2019s side or against him is something I can\u2019t wait to see. Join me next week as I dive into episode 2 of what looks to be a great season of Succession<\/em>. \t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
