Succession: No one to go to!

By Susana Moscatel

Admittedly, this is not the first time that this has happened, that the once sacred golden law that Hollywood studios and even soap operas had as a priority is broken: "the good guys" had to be people we liked. The protagonists should at least be capable of repentance and redemption. No, not only is that no longer a rule, but in my opinion it can be an imposition that works to the detriment of the best stories.

HBO's Succession ends this Sunday and the theories about who is going to get Logan Roy's companies are getting crazier and crazier among friends and in the networks. And is that after a masterful season, in which each chapter leaves us with a hole in the stomach regarding the battle of the sons of one of the largest and most influential companies in the world we arrived this Sunday to the last chapter with a million clues, but no clear answer about who will take the throne. Yes, I know what I said, "the throne," clearly a trend that HBO knows works. Did you know, by the way, that in the first episode of House of The Dragon the word "succession" is mentioned nine times?
