Each of the children carry a part of Logan in their personalities imo and with Connor they were both able to emotionally detach themselves the easiest from the rest of the world and keep it moving. Logan would’ve had the same reaction if it were reversed imo - grieved for ten seconds and went back to his life.

I've never seen death captured so realistically in movies or television like this before. The way it was so unexpected, and how everyone was in denial of it immediately afterwards.

This is a long, rambly comment, but bear with me. This episode was so powerful on so many levels. Logan’s death was shocking, yet the lack of build-up towards his death is what makes it all the more real. No one prepares for death, and no family, not even the Roy’s, are immune from that reality. The way that the cast performed in this episode was superb; the shock, the denial, the grief, the pain. It was beautiful to watch how to Roy children came together to support one another. I am in awe of the talent of these incredible actors. And my god, I have such admiration for the writers, the director and the crew for this incredible episode. E4 is a triumph, a culmination of extremely talented people working together to create a powerhouse of a show. It was absolutely incredible. I held my breath for the whole hour of the episode and couldn’t let go. A heart wrenching watch. Wow.

Eloquently said.

I feel bad for anyone who didn't watch this live without spoilers.

[@kdizzle901]

Agree same with Ozymandias

[@aineix1685]

same here. and sites like LA Times releasing an obituary for Logan the second the episode airs is beyond stupid. I'd be crushed if years of build up was ruined by some click bait garbage

So I had seen a picture of the 3 siblings hugging on an IG story, luckily I didn't read into it. I got the gut punch when I saw the episode as intended. The whole treatment felt too real.

dramaturgically 😭😭😭😭😭😭 i love this man

[@kenneld]

This was absolutely incredible. Making Logan’s death such a whiplash-inducing shock was a legitimate magic trick.

[@Jay-bt3wo]

The cast on this show is just unbelievable!

[@AngelaRamírez-g9q]

I just love Jeremy too much and his approach to acting... But they were all absolutely amazing!!!!!! Thanks for this brilliant episode.

[@G.GordonMidi]

My man said “dramatergically”. Out here sounding like Uncle Ewan

[@tokyodirect4594]

It was brilliant and very realistic. I had heard that there was something riveting about episode 3, so I prepared, but I wasn't prepared. Gobsmacked the whole time.

[@alexjennings566]

Really interesting insight into the filming process, more of this please!

[@Ruubix579]

Now I see the foreshadowing of when Logan was talking about death with Colin. Amazing writing!

[@pegrande1504]

One of the finest Television Episodes I've ever seen. As real as it gets. The beggining of the end is here. It's been emotional guys.

[@brianrundle9090]

Without a doubt one of the most brilliant one hour of television I have ever seen. If every actor, writer, producer and directors of this show do not take home emmys for this episode alone they might as well shut down the ceremony. Excellent work to all

[@AA-qb7ni]

Definitely the best episode of the entire series in my opinion and one of the best episodes in television history. Everything was incredible 🙌

[@Adriana-eu6ty]

Roman is my favourite character. Kieran is an amazing actor. He shows anxiety and the need for love so well.

[@ChaosReigns45]

Succession captured the true unexpected and sudden nature of death. Right up until the end you can't believe that Logan died, when the phone call is made you're probably thinking that it's a heavy play from Logan to scare off the kids since at the beginning of the episode he said that they'll go aggressive. And we all expect everything from him, but as it goes on and on you keep wondering. Denial fear anger and bitterness. One of the best episodes of all time

[@ronniefront511]

Logan left Waystar up in the air and his kids all at sea… just amazing detail from the creators.

[@Fmacayan]

Seeing characters like Shiv, Roman, and Con who typically hide their emotions behind a shield finally break in their own little ways was so moving. I love how amazing of a grasp the writers and actors have of their characters - I know it might sound super trivial when I say that everyone reacted to Logan’s Death reacted EXACTLY how they would react but you’d be surprised how many movies/tv shows try to force moments out of certain characters and therefore miss the mark, especially in their final seasons. We’re truly witnessing modern day Shakespeare.

[@charlesrocks]

Astonishingly realistic. Compelling. Well done. I need to rewatch this whole series now.

[@TK-ge2gh]

Happy I did re-binge the first three seasons before Season Four. Then again I am midway through watching The Wire for the fourth time.

[@Baskanson]

One of the greatest episodes in entire tv history. Blowed my mind

[@oruguita.lylita78]

My god this was an hour of TELEVISON! Hooked from start to finish with my mouth hanging open, just excellent. Anyone who has lost a loved one suddenly, even the ones who are though to love, this whole episode just stabs you right in the heart. He lived and died for the conquest of money/power, disgusted by the kind of personalities that fostered in the children he raised. Then he just f*ckd off and died! The anger and unresolved feelings were just insanely real.

[@Running-withscissors]

That episode was completely unexpected and the whole cast rose to a new level in their performance. Bravo and hope this is a catalyst for future great things for all involved.

[@SR-fj8bu]

I think I had my mouth covered in shock for at least half that 30min and my hand over my heart for the other half. Shocking, so real, and an incredible piece of work. I’ll miss Brian Cox very much but what a way to make an impact in an episode. Bravo 👏🏽

[@PeacefulViewer]

I rewatched it and cannot sleep. I'm blown away. What a masterfully done episode. I cannot wait to see where things go.
