Mirotic posted:Shiv is the youngest and the only girl, so I definitely read a component of "this is the person I am Above, no matter what" in her relationship with Tom, because yeah, she's bottom of the pecking order twice over by virtue of her gender and her age. I just assumed until reading this that Roman was the youngest because he has the most incredible Youngest Child vibes

christmas boots posted:Surround Greg with competent people and he will gently caress it up less than the others Yeah like any good non-founder CEO success is directly correlated with being aware of their lack of skills. The kids all have too high opinions of their own abilities, but Tom and Greg know they’re just trying to surround themselves with people to make them look as not-stupid as possible. Greg wants to be CEO for the perks and so his entire work day would be spent making sure he remains as inoffensive as possible. Tom has just enough ambition that he might think he can do something dumb and still land on his feet, which he wouldn’t.

theCalamity posted:Frank hitting the wall when Kendall insisted that the pilots could talk felt so real Kendall going through all the options in his mind, realizing that he’s completely unprepared to give orders and just saying “Do It Right” was the best moment of the episode, a perfect summation of how useless his business leadership skills are but also how he needed to feel like he was doing something even if it’s giving the dumbest most obvious order

Escobarbarian posted:Sorry if this was posted already but I really love this interview with Strong: https://www.vulture.com/article/succession-jeremy-strong-interview-season-4-episode-6.html The difference between this interview and some of those others is that you can tell this interviewer is just as big a nerd as Strong, and instead of getting distance and judgement, they’re tag-teaming their favorite David Mamet quotes, which makes him much more endearing.

It’s very easy to ignore the fact that Roman is fash when he’s in places where his politics don’t really matter or come up but he’s a fascist and is probably the worst human on the show. I hate him but I love Kieran Actually Mattson is worse because he’s not only a weird sociopathic internet nerd, he’s also a liar and just the worst

withak posted:Yeah I loled heartily at how hard Kendall fell for that. Kendall’s favorite rapper is Jay-Z of course he’s gonna bite whenever anyone insults NYC. that mf was probably about two more insults away from straight up quoting Empire State of Mind

Ken making it all about himself in the room with Shiv is what did him in. He hears her say “you know this isn’t all about you” and instead of checking in with her and trying to figure out what’s going on he immediately assumes it is in fact all about him, and he gets super defensive. I think Shiv being back in the building, back in the situation and realizing that she’s signing up for all of that all over for the rest of her life gave her pause. It’s possible someone could have talked her through that in that moment but Kendall is just not equipped to be that person. When she realized he wasn’t concerned about her at all she went into Super Shiv Mode and just said the meanest things she could to hurt him.
