Oh I see Lear here and there, but Lear is a pretty grim tragedy -- and Succession lacks a loyal Cordelia (Connor maybe!). Logan unlike Lear is not tormented by his choices. For me Succession a critique and comedy of dynastic capitalism in which the grasping outsiders win but ultimately everybody loses ...Tomato, tomahto!
