For Variety VIP+ Subscribers: Is 'Succession' Truly Over If HBO Doesn't Let Great IP Die?
As I watched the series finale of what I consider one of the greatest TV shows of the last 30 years, I found myself oddly stoic.
“Succession” is a different kind of show that earns its true value not with mere ratings but on the Emmy Awards and critics’ year-end lists that HBO needs to dominate in order to continue luring the best artists to do their work for Warner Bros. Discovery instead of Netflix or Apple. HBO will make whatever Armstrong wants to make next because he has rightfully earned a blank check to create whatever his heart desires. But you better believe the time will come years from now when Orsi or her equivalent finds the right moment to gently prod him with, “Hey, you ever think about revisiting ‘Succession’?”
Even in the event that the fabulous “Succession” stars become too darn famous to deign to revisit the roles that made them household names, a sprawling ensemble like this can be rebooted even with a key player or two missing. If “… And Just Like That” managed to go on without Kim Cattrall, really anything is possible.
