Logan Roy (Brian Cox) is CEO and a terrible father to his four terrible children: eccentric Connor (Alan Ruck), the only child from Logan's first marriage heir apparent Kendall (Jeremy Strong) icy Shiv (Sarah Snook), the only daughter and a political strategist for one of Logan's many nemeses and Roman (Kieran Culkin), a spoiled, wisecracking slacker longing (maybe) for more control. In case you forgot, the show follows the immorally wealthy Roy family, which owns media and lifestyle conglomerate Waystar Royco-comprised of communications platforms including a Fox News-style television station and a film production company, and various miscellany including cruise lines and theme parks. If you haven't had time for a Season 1 re-watch because you've had better things to do than watch Succession on repeat (there are no better things), we’ve provided a recap of all the first season’s major events and developments, so you’re all caught up before tonight. After months of waiting, Succession returns for Season 2 tonight on HBO.
