Succession series finale leaves fans divided

The Succession series finale has hit the fans hard!

The critically acclaimed drama, Succession concluded with the final episode of the fourth and final season.

Warning! Spoilers Ahead!

Sunday evening saw, the whopping 88-minute finale, which concluded HBO’s hit series chronicling a billionaire media mogul and his children’s struggles to take over the family company, Waystar Royco.

Logan Roy’s successor to Waystar Rayco empire was finally revealed that left the family in tatters!

The viewers have been reeling — because none of the Roy siblings won.

Shiv Roy took one final turn against her brother Kendall, blowing up his plans to keep their late father’s company and become CEO by voting to let their media empire be acquired by a Swedish tech giant, GoJo.

The series finale has been directed by Mark Mylod and written by series creator Jesse Armstrong, and after many twists and turns, it was Tom Wambsgans (Matthew Macfadyen) who ultimately takes over as Waystar CEO, under new owner Lukas Matsson.

If you are a vivid Succession fan, we tried our best not to spoil the story any further for you. But here is how the reactions are pouring over the finale.

Kendall Roy was always the heart of the show, we were all rooting for him no matter, he was the last shot of the show and having it been this feels like a punch to my guts #Successionpic.twitter.com/kfSH9Cuw2D

The only thing I could think about watching the boardroom fight in the #Succession finale was what Logan told all of his kids before he died. He was right. pic.twitter.com/eDJQOjN1b6

Jesse Armstrong and co. have perfected giving audiences a sense of false hope with #Succession that I don’t think we’ll see again. You give us what’s possibly the last moments of the siblings in good terms, only to tear them apart and leave them in the mud. What a series finale! pic.twitter.com/6NEMQKGmBE

Many were left with the opinion that the show had destroyed Shiv by making her into a villain.

I literally would have rather seen shiv get hit by a bus than give up and become some vessel for men to harvest power out of her husband her potential offspring she became everything she wanted to avoid and for what

Roman’s first scene of the show saying he wants to be out of there and the position is bullshit. To his final scene to Kendall saying “we’re bullshit”

Perfect full circle moment #Succession pic.twitter.com/59Xyclsmxy

We just witnessed history. Not since Breaking Bad have I been this satisfied with a finale, so kudos to the masterful writing on this show. I am truly shook & absolutely astonished at how perfectly they ended this. Goodbye to one of the greatest shows ever made. #Succession pic.twitter.com/AcrdP8qvq5
