Time On Screen: Succession

Usually on Time on Screen, we look at notable movies from the past, but this week we’re switching things up a bit, and talking about what is unquestionably the most discussed show on television at the moment. Succession has just started its fourth and final season, and it’s a Worn & Wound favorite. When Zach and Ed Jelley decided to tackle the first three episodes of the season, they had no idea that episode three, “Connor’s Wedding,” would prove to be what we’d have to describe as the most consequential episode of the series to date. The outline for this discussion was promptly thrown out the window as a result, but we still make room for some watch talk, as this is an all-time great watch spotting hour, week after week. Needless to say, big spoilers abound in this episode, so don’t hit play if you’re not caught up. It’s also impossible to talk about Succession without using certain words we normally try to avoid on these podcasts, so this isn’t one to play with young children around, unless maybe they’re part of the Roy extended family.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.
