    Have Jeremy Strong play Logan in the prequel

    As scripted, it was meant to end with an aerial shot where we see Kendall walking, and we see Colin following him. I begged Armstrong and director Mark Mylod, “Can we go to the water? I want to keep walking.” We ended up at the bitter end of Battery Park, facing the water. I'd never seen waves like that in the East River. It felt biblical. And there was this terrible clanging on some scaffolding nearby. We didn't know what we were looking for, but something profound happened. We only had about eight minutes to shoot that piece at the end because the sun was going down. The water was calling to me. It felt right to all of us.

    Listen to the John Berryman poem that Jesse has named these finales after. John Berryman himself died by suicide, jumping into the frozen river. I tried to go into the water after we cut—I got up from that bench and went as fast as I could over the barrier and onto the pilings, and the actor playing Colin raced over. I didn't know I was gonna do that, and he didn't know, but he raced over and stopped me. I don't know whether in that moment I felt that Kendall just wanted to die—I think he did—or if he wanted to be saved by essentially a proxy of his father.

    the vote of no confidence is the best episode of the series for me

    Of the entire series?!?

    Great episode but I think they topped that numerous times over in the seasons following

    this kinda makes me wish we got a late-game episode where the 3 siblings take hallucinogenics together like that episode near the end of sopranos

    Tom pulling a sticker out of nowhere and putting it on Greg was gold

    Now I’m imagining Tom in his office alone, brainstorming on how to break the news to Greg. You know he was giggling when he came up with the sticker sheet

    i think this show’s very “boring” landscape (compared to past great shows) really ties in how well written and well acted this show was

    shows like breaking bad, BCS, sopranos, wire, etc all had relatively exciting things to fall back on (cartels, gangs, mafia) whereas succession had f***in board meetings and shareholder drama as its big bad and still made things extremely tense and exciting to watch

    I think Mad Men is probably the closest thing to this show I've watched

    Brian Cox was right, this nigga doing too much

    Cox, who plays the father to Strong’s character on the Emmy-winning HBO series, said point blank about Strong’s Method acting: “Oh, it’s f***ing annoying. Don’t get me going on it.”

    “He’s a very good actor,” Cox added. “And the rest of the ensemble is all okay with this. But knowing a character and what the character does is only part of the skill set.”

    “He’s still that guy, because he feels if he went somewhere else he’d lose it,” Cox continued. “But he won’t! Strong is talented. He’s f***ing gifted. When you’ve got the gift, celebrate the gift. Go back to your trailer and have a hit of marijuana, you know?”
