If you just finished watching Succession, there is likely a Roy family-sized hole in your heart. And if it’s anything like their egos, it’s pretty big.
The end of the series marks the end of watching your favorite billionaires spit out biting insults in designer power suits. The tragic fights between Kendall (Jeremy Strong), Roman (Kieran Culkin), and Shiv (Sarah Snook) to grasp onto the last bits of power they possess have finally concluded. The siblings are left to grieve in their privileged misery, emotionally stunted and perpetually alone.
Succession grabbed the attention of millions through its powerful ensemble cast and brilliantly witty script. Week after week, viewers tuned in to watch as characters schemed, fought, and networked to move up the company ladder at Waystar Royco, the multimillion-dollar company. Marked with themes of greed, much of the show focused on family dynamics and how where we come from shapes who we become. Despite the bleak, underlying themes, bits of dark humor sprinkled within the episodes added the lightness to the storyline and highlighted the outrageousness of this family’s situation.
Did you watch because you found Roman’s blistering side comments hilarious? Or, were you only invested in finding out who would eventually run Waystar Royco? No matter the reason, we’ve found seven of the best ensemble shows for you to watch next to satisfy your need for more Succession.
