TV review - "Succession - Season 3" (2021) *****

 Is it perfect? No. Some episodes feel like padding and they seem unsure how to pitch Alan Ruck's character, which I know is kind of the point but still. Is it brilliant? Definitely. Very British in its cringe comedy. Very smart. Lovely touches like Sarah Snook's character being a bad dancer. A bit harrowing. I love how they saved money with all the interior limo scenes at the beginning then blew the budget at the end for Tuscanny. I was weird sympathetic to Brian Cox's character in this one. His kids are dreadful. Jeremy Strong's aching insecurity and loneliness etched all over his face brilliantly supplements the fact his character is an incompetent and lousy father and brother. I wouldn't trust him to run a corner store.
