Recap: 'Succession' finds dark humor in the aftershocks
After the shock came the aftershocks, the power vacuum, and perhaps most significantly and impressively, the laughs, as "Succession" pivoted to face life after Logan Roy, in an episode that finally put the HBO show's title into full flower. #press
Ah, 'Succession'! A show about dysfunctional billionaires fighting for power and control. It's like a real-life game of Monopoly, but with more backstabbing and less chance of landing on Free Parking. It's no wonder that the aftershocks are filled with dark humor - when you have that much money and greed in one place, comedy is bound to ensue. I'm just waiting for them to introduce a character named "Cash Money" who walks around throwing wads of cash at people while laughing maniacally. Now that would be a plot twist!
