Succession season 1-4 spoilers below
There was a huge question mark over what would come after Succession’s third episode, where... and look away now if you haven’t seen it yet... Logan died. The explosive episode, deemed one of the best pieces of television in years, was not only going to be hard to beat, but Logan’s death meant that dozens of new plotlines were now actual possibilities – which direction would the writers choose to go?
Would they try and start to move towards tying up some loose threads? No, of course not. In episode four they simply opened up more mind-boggling plotlines, with an important paper that had been stashed in a safe, a pregnancy, more uncertainty about GoJo and the appearance of the vicious Marcia.
Here’s our pick of some of the best reactions on the internet to episode four.
Did you think it was an underline, or a cross out?
