The Ravenhead guy does a phenomenal job at playing Tucker karlsen lol

Roman was brutal this episode

This is romans last big win episode and shivs big L. Next episode Roman is going self destruct on a level we never could think of

This is why they never fired him even after the nazi stuff. He is incredibly good at his job.

Roman was on a war path this episode

Zack Robidas is doing a fucking incredible job playing Ravenhead, he has the Tucker Carlson impression down to a tee. This is actually the first time we see Ravenhead actually giving an editorial on-air, otherwise it's just been mentioned indirectly.

"And tell your son she's actually your daughter, or the other way around". These writers nailed it. This literally sounds like real life demagogues.

The amount of detail and quality they put in a monologue that in another show could have been easily just a quick moment in the background is impressive. The 'daughter' line is pure gold.

ATN is falling apart at the seams. When Mencken was talking smack about Logan in front of him, Logan could probably sense the death of his institution looming

Fiery but mostly peaceful fire in Wisconsin

I wonder about the odd number of conservatives who somehow became Succession fans and how they think about scenes like this

Even though it was fairly mentioned and alluded through all the show, seeing how insanely right wing ATN really is was hilarious and pretty fucked up, Logan and Cyd definitely kept it at bay somewhat and tried to give an illussion of centrism by doing "sad sappy shit for the people" but Tom (and the kids) dived straight into fascism and they are already regreting it lmao Roman is the only one who hasnt but hes definitely gonna explode in the eulogy and ruin his one win in the series

Tell your son she is actually your daughter or other way around 😂

Just realised Mattson says Greg is giving him info on this scene. Greg for new CEO.

Should have asked Billy Joel who started the fire

its so over for roman after this episode

0:26 Shiv’s Australian accent slipped for a second

"Innumerate residuum"

Is this the first time we’ve seen/heard Mark on air?

Ravenhead seems more like a satire of Tucker Carlson if anything.

This is the best show.

I have to say: fire favor GOP is really a fantastic argument. Yes, it is misleading because if you burn the votes in a Democrat majority city, the "result" will favor GOP. Yet, in our common sense, fire will burn anything. By mixing "fire" and "favor", you start to feel maybe things are not that unfair. In fact, a nice slogan like: "Fire is fair", "Fire just burns", will be amazing when blocking any actions to revote.

Roman never sees the error of his ways. Even in the end. Because he could help fix it if he wanted and he doesn’t.

Brilliant conclusion to the iconic Nazi scene in season 2 to see they kept him on air.

The Roys need to lose this battle

This scene is peak “punchable” Roman

So will Roman and Ken simply become like Ewan and Logan?

A heavy-handed parody of Stacy Abrams and her complaining

Someone needs to destroy Roman. It has to happen.

Is it just me or does this Ravenhead guy sound similar to Tom? (Especially the "Yeah")

I think roman should’ve been ceo, this episode shows that he will do whatever it takes, he also know his way around networking to get things done

This was the part of the episode and season that I didn't like. The political storyline is so transparently a stand-in for the real world 2016 and 2020 elections - Ravenhead as Tucker Carlsen, Mencken as Trump, Jiminez as Hillary - that it comes off as dated and almost a deja vu. We've all seen this before. This is also a confused portrayal of how elections are decided. They aren't decided by news networks whose viewers have been declining for years from competition with streaming and podcasts and tiktok. It's not as if ATN declares a winner and the govt says "oh ATN declared a winner, time to stop counting votes."

The showrunner's politics really showed in this episode (and in the last few as well). I'm excited for the finale but overall I liked it more when the show was more subtle. For example Shiv being an obviously bad person while supporting liberal politics. This is something you don't usually see in other hollywood show instead of bad people always having to be republicans or conservatives. What they have been doing gives it depth and makes it interesting. What they're doing now is incredibly obvious, I don't know how many times they said how democracy is going to end, how people will get shot etc. if the republican will win. Adding to that this Mancin dude is literally the devil, not charismatic at all and acted so badly when he gave his speech at the end, sort of comical villain in a way "I just want to do something clean" *gives an evil smile to the camera*. No chance this guy would ever come even close to a lead in such a race. The obvious Trump comparison they're trying to do is incredibly brittle and misleading that way. Trump at least is funny and entertaining. Not sure why the showrunners had to push in a very clear political direction that way. I'm sure some liberals love it, because, you know, fuck republicans right? I wish the showrunners would have put the ridiculous nature of the current political climate into the show instead of backing it from one clear side.

Show definitely is putting its agenda before plot and story
