Succession season 4 has already started to feel like an endgame in the previous week's episode, which saw a huge event shake the entire Roy family. Yes, the king is dead, and with the death of Logan Roy, the series has opened up doors to a drama that was unprecedented up to this point. While it did start as sibling rivalry, things were quite different this season, especially with Logan's bog betrayal that united all three of his children.
This episode had several things that created a stir in the pot. Of course, Logan did leave behind instructions to follow after his demise. It seems that the old man has handed the duty of the household and the big chair to Kendall Roy, who already seems on his way to becoming the next Logan.
This episode saw Kendall assuming his position as the co-CEO of the company alongside his brother and the family's darling child Roman Roy. However, in this scuffle, they left behind their little sister, Shiv, out of the equation. It is quite shocking, given that Shiv looked most likely to take over the post in the second season of Succession.
This bludgeoning family drama was enough for fans to engage on social media sites by making hilarious memes about the Logan Roy family and the Roy siblings, especially with all the new developments in place.
