‘One the best shows of the last 10 years’

There’s a lot riding on the series finale of ‘Succession’ and fans are well aware that it is important the finale keeps up with all the expectations. TV history has seen some iconic shows lose their charm and popularity because of the series finale like ‘Game of Thrones’ or even ‘How I Met Your Mother’. And that’s the last thing one wants to happen to ‘Succession.’ One fan writes, “#Succession has a chance to become unquestionably one of the best 2-3 TV shows of all time if they stick the landing tonight. I have no idea where it’s going but I have faith in them to tie this up in a great way.” Fans haven’t held back when it comes to crowning ‘Succession’ as the best show ever as they tweet, “Succession the best show of ALL-TIME! Tonight!” and another writes, “Genuinely don’t think I’ve ever been this excited for an episode of tv before.”



 



 



 

HBO, along with other streaming platforms and networks, have seen some brilliant and iconic shows in the last decade, and one fan is convinced that ‘Succession’ beats them all as they tweet, “TODAY is the finale of one the best shows of the last 10 years. Who’s going to sit on the Iron Throne?” Fans have also compared ‘Succession’ to ‘Game of Thrones’. One tweet read, “Honestly succession is the best show in a decade minimum. Imo. GOT was up there but it was based on books so I’m not giving it the same love.” Looks like ‘Succession’ is making its way to the top with a perfect landing in the series finale. One fan sums up what every other ‘Succession’ fan is feeling right now. “There are two groups of people: those who think Succession is the best telly series EVER, and those who are wrong,” said the fan.
