Succession (HBO) TV Show • Page 31

Could be a reach, he just to me has all the symptoms of a person who hasn't accepted themselves, and Greg is his only semi-outlet for all of it, so he takes it all out on him - the anger, the pain, the casual flirtation, the need for dominance

Plus he turned down a MFF threesome lol

It's so obviously a stacked cast of characters but Tom might be my favorite of them all because of the depth that Matthew MacFadyen gives him, he just says so much with Tom's face

 

as for turning down the threesome, I could be remembering wrong but I feel like that was right after shiv had the affair with the actor and it was bc he wanted to just be with her and she clearly wanted an open marriage, no?

i love the tom character too. and wouldn't be shocked if that is the way it goes. just not really the read I have

 

You're not wrong, and I think even if he is gay that's not WHY he turned down the threesome, probably more to do with his insecurities/personality

I don't think there'll ever be a "Tom is gay" reveal, its just an undercurrent I feel throughout the series

 

Can’t believe it’s taken me this long to find this thread. Love this show so much that we named our female cat Ken last year just so we could constantly say “I see you, Ken” like Logan does when Ken’s up to suspicious behavior in S1

 

Has anyone else started asking people at work “what’s the temperature of the (X) situation?” or are y’all normal?

 

"That's not how it works."
"w-w-w-well maybe it is?"

Underrated funny line lol

 

Greg is slowly becoming everyone’s favorite, isn’t he

 

I have two long term thoughts on Greg:

1) he either ends up in charge of the whole shebang in the end

Or

2) they turn him into a super villain somewhere along the lines and as much as that would suck it would also be done in the most impressive and shocking fashion in the history of entertainment

 

This fucking show has me trained like an animal or small child. I make sure I get home a half hour a head of time and am seated with a drink and some snacks on my couch waiting for the episode to pop up on the app lmao

 

I was so busy with heckin’ Covid I forgot this is tonight.
Yessssss

 

The payoff is going to be so worth it!!!

 

Oh fuuuuuuuuck Kendall my god

 

Logan turning to Tom is such sublime writing.

 

"He's not even wearing a tie"

 

Love that Sophie’s rabbit gets talked about in two straight episodes

 

who? the fucking piss mad king of england?

 

At first I thought I heard “mad king” and thought they were referencing GoT / making a meta joke which kind of would have been awesome

 

this episode is unhinged

 

God when Kendall took the stage I died

 

This one definitely needs a rewatch because of how hectic it was and all the little things I probably missed. Like, why did Frank go up to start the speech when the teleprompter showed that Geri was supposed to be speaking? Was that foreshadowing to something and/or showing a divide somewhere that maybe I missed?

 

he did not help himself there at all lol

 

“Do you need me to hold the scepter?”

 

KENDALL

 

What an episode! Holy shit
